Kim Hyun Joong (Photo by Sports Korea)Kim Hyun Joong ("Playful Kiss", "Boys Over Flowers") showed a different side to his persona with the release of his much awaited debut as a solo singer through the mini-album "Break Down". The actor-singer, who celebrated his25th birthday last June 6, surprised the Henecians (The collective name of his fans) with a dark and manly concept for his comeback as a solo singer.
Kim Hyun Joong knows how to please his fans. Before the official release of his album, he bombarded fans with MV teasers, album jacket photos and a surprise pre-release of the MV for "Please", one of the tracks from the album. The actor's album officially dropped in Korea last June 8.
Even with the manly concept of his new release, Kim Hyun Joong showed his soft side during his comeback showcase the night before his album's official release. As if to mirror the title of his album, the star, known for his close relationship with fans, broke down as he read a personal letter he prepared for them. With tears in his eyes, he thanked fans who supported him for six years. He also expressed his feelings about the pressures of going solo and the pain he felt due to the harsh words he received when his idol group SS501 formally ceased its activities. He also expressed sadness over seeing some of his fans fighting. To this, his fans replied "It's ok!" and "No, we don't fight!"

Kim Hyun Joong said: "I have always been able to show my public-self to fans on stage but I have never showed my heart to them. Finally, I have gained enough courage to write this letter and share my feelings with you. It has already been six years since I met everyone. I thank youfor believing and cheering me all these years and never changing. While working on this album, I realized how important the meaning of the word 'together' is. When I worked on this album, I felt pressure and fear as I tried to do this alone. It was hard to conquer this. When I look back over the past year with fans fighting and misunderstanding me, I thought to myself that I have limits too. Still, I worked hard on this album by thinking how happy my fans will be. I hope that you will smile and be even more happy in the future because this album is not mine, it is everyone's. I am very grateful to everyone who came here and I want to tell you with all my heart that I love you."
Kim Hyun Joong officially released two MVs from his album including "Break Down" and "Please".
