EXO's Xiumin Releases Track List for Comeback Solo Album 'Interview X'

EXO member Xiumin released the track list on Thursday for his highly anticipated second solo mini-album Interview X, which is set to drop next month.

Xiumin's upcoming mini-album features six tracks, including the title song "WHEE." The five B-side tracks for Interview X include "Can't Help Myself," "Make You LaLa," "Switch Off," "Lost Paradise," and "Love is U." Notably, the last song was penned by fellow EXO member Chen.

Interview X will mark Xiumin's return to solo work two-and-a-half years after he debuted his first extended play (EP), Brand New, in September 2022. The K-pop idol first introduced the album with a teaser image on Feb. 14, featuring a grainy photo of Xiumin wearing sunglasses and a caption with the album title and release date.

On Wednesday, Xiumin released an official trailer for the album, which showed the idol in an all-black ensemble, ending with an intriguing "X" over the camera lens.

According to Xiumin's agency, INB100, 'Interview X' aims to reveal new sides of the artist that fans may not have seen before. It will be his first album under the agency, which he joined in 2023 with fellow EXO members Baekyun and Chen. INB100 is a subsidiary of One Hundred Label.

Apart from his albums, Xiumun has also engaged in other solo projects, including recording and releasing OST tracks for Korean dramas like "Mr. Queen" and "Boss-dol Mart." He also collaborated with other artists, such as AOA's Jimin and NCT's Mark, and participated in musical theater, playing the character of Aquila in "School Oz."

Outside of music, Xiumin acted in web dramas and films, including "Falling for Challenge" and "Seondal: The Man Who Sells the River."

Prior to the announcement of his album, Xiumin, along with his EXO-CBX bandmates Chen and Baekhyun, held a successful fan meeting in Japan after a six-year hiatus. The fan meeting saw the trio perform hit songs such as "Hey Mama!," "Cherish," and "Blooming Day."
