No Labels: Part 01 is the debut solo extended play (EP) by South Korean singer Yeonjun, released on November 7, 2025, by Big Hit Music. It marks his first official solo project since debuting with Tomorrow X Together (TXT) in 2019, following his 2024 single "Ggum".
Background
[edit | edit source]After the success of his 2024 solo mixtape "Ggum", Yeonjun began working on his first extended play, aiming to create music that reflected his personal tastes and experiences rather than external expectations.[1] The title No Labels symbolizes an "unfiltered reflection" of his identity and his journey of self-discovery.[2] Yeonjun described the creative process—writing lyrics, composing, and developing performances—as a way to better understand himself and grow closer to the concept behind the album's title.[3]
Release and promotion
[edit | edit source]No Labels: Part 01 was announced on October 17, 2025, and released on November 7, 2025, making Yeonjun the first TXT member to issue a solo EP. Its promotional campaign drew attention for its unconventional and artistic approach. The cover art, featuring a shirtless Yeonjun, and the accompanying visuals generated significant online buzz. He interacted with fans through Instagram Live sessions, where he previewed tracks and unboxed the album's versions.[4]
The music video, which combined three tracks in an omnibus format, surpassed 10 million views on YouTube within three days of release.[5] Yeonjun promoted the album on Music programs of South Korea including KBS2's Music Bank and SBS's Inkigayo, as well as U.S. media outlets such as iHeart KPOP with JoJo Wright.[6] He was also scheduled to appear on The Kelly Clarkson Show on November 13. According to Hanteo Chart, the album sold 542,660 copies on its first day.[7]
Music and lyrics
[edit | edit source]No Labels: Part 01 consists of six tracks that span genres such as alternative rock, punk rock, ska, hip-hop, funk, pop, and acid jazz.[4] The lead single, "Talk to You", is a hard-rock song with energetic guitar riffs. Other tracks include the English-language "Forever", a laid-back, soulful hip-hop song, and "Let Me Tell You", an R&B collaboration with Katseye's Daniela, who contributed Spanish-lyrics.[5]
Yeonjun was closely involved in the album's creation, writing lyrics for five of the six songs and co-composing "Talk to You" and "Nothin' 'Bout Me".[1][5] He also directed aspects of the performances and choreography. Lyrically, the EP draws from his personal experiences, which Yeonjun described as "purely all of my story" and a "journey of self-expression".[1][3]
