Jang Woo Hyuk made an impressive comeback this year, one that stood out in all areas of music, dance, fashion, and performance. In his latest interview and photoshoot with fashion magazine 'Marie Claire Korea', the singer expressed his thoughts on his hiatus and on the journey leading to his comeback. Jang Woo Hyuk began, "The five years of my hiatus were a painful test of my patience. I wanted to promote but couldn't, which became a source of great stress to me. Still, I think it's because I went through such hardships that I was able to be more active and aggressive with my current promotions." On self-producing his album, he proudly expressed, "I think my music, dance, and fashion all came together like how I imagined it." He revealed that his first goal was to be acknowledged as a dance-singer, and his goal after that was to become a producer who's able to help his close friends achieve their dreams of becoming musicians. The staff that worked with him on this photoshoot praised, "Jang Woo Hyuk poesd as if he was performing and captivated the scene with his strong gaze. His understanding of fashion far exceeded our expectations."
