Singer Jang Beom June has shared specific directions for his future musical activities, detailing his upcoming performance plans and his ongoing artistic reflections.

In a recently released video, Jang shared his thoughts on his year-end plans and stage presence. Expressing a strong sense of responsibility toward his shows, he explained that when he faces deep musical contemplations, he uses the stage as a way to confirm and resolve them.

Autumn guerrilla concerts and year-end acoustic stages teased

Jang hinted at the possibility of holding several performances during the pleasant autumn season. According to his remarks, when his musical work is not progressing smoothly or when he faces creative dilemmas, he intends to take the stage to play for his audience, using the time to find the right musical direction. He suggested these performances could take various forms, ranging from formal club settings to comfortable, seated venues, though he noted that outdoor shows would depend on the weather.

Regarding year-end performances, the singer teased a new experimental approach. Jang revealed plans to add 'strings' (絃) to his year-end shows, expressing a desire to create a unique atmosphere by utilizing string instruments that pair naturally with his acoustic music.

Finding 'recovery' through music and fan connection

Jang explained that performing is more than just providing entertainment; for him, it is a process of organizing his musical thoughts and finding recovery. He stated that he releases the minor anxieties he experiences—whether standing on large stages or facing overwhelming tasks—through his performances, a process that helps restore him. He specifically mentioned gaining healing through letters from fans, noting that this connection forms the foundation of his musical life.

Furthermore, he compared his musical process to 'repotting' or 'pruning,' describing how he organizes and refines his work before delivering it to his fans. As part of this process, he also mentioned plans to showcase songs featuring his unique musical interpretations through guerrilla-style performances. He expressed his commitment to doing his best so that fans can cherish his music as something special.
