He said it was his best work yet and that he didn’t know how he would top himself, and I believed him. The 6-member boy group debuted in 2012 and was the first idol group created by entertainment agency Yedang Entertainment, which would later be renamed Banana Culture Entertainment.

The album featured a character of the same name — Mito, an alter-ego of sorts to Ian, partly an extension of himself and partly a fictionalized and heightened way for him to explore his psyche. In his captivating new film, the musician fights, sings, and dances through Mito’s journey, detailing every moment after his biblical fall from grace, pushing an already intense sonic experience to its limits. In 2008, when he was 18, he started uploading videos to his YouTube channel, going by the name of B Boy B. The record will also include songs like ‘1 Shot’, ‘Merry Go’ and ’Ballroom Extravaganza’, among others.

He is a former member of Yedang Entertainment boy group C-Clown, which was active between 2012 and 2015.

A self-proclaimed perfectionist, DPR IAN (real name Christian Yu) fixates on every detail of his work – which is why it’s not too surprising when he admits to NME he’s still adding the finishing touches to his debut studio album one week away from its release.It can be considered very niche, but at the same time I think literally anyone can — and should — listen to this album. This captivating album showcases DPR Ian's unique musical style and takes listeners on a journey through various emotions and experiences. Yu made his solo debut under his co-founded label Dream Perfect Regime (DPR) with the digital single "So Beautiful" on October 26, 2020.
