EVAN has officially wrapped up promotional activities for his debut single 'RIDE OR DIE.' The approximately one-month-long run of stage activities came to a close with his appearance on SBS's 'Inkigayo' on the 12th.

EVAN released his debut single on the 22nd of last month, proving his capabilities as a creator by not only writing, composing, and producing all tracks but also participating directly in the visual creative direction. With this album, which candidly captures his inner self, he formed a deep resonance with audiences. He showcased trendy vocals in the title track 'Ride or Die' and a delicate tone in the B-side track 'Overflow,' broadening his musical spectrum.

His skills as a vocalist also shone across various stages. He consistently delivered live performances not only on music shows but also at the outdoor busking concert 'The Fillin' Live with EVAN,' KBS2's 'The Seasons - Sung Si-kyung's Neighborhood Friend,' and multiple radio programs.

His chart performance was equally noteworthy. Immediately upon release, 'Ride or Die' topped the Bugs real-time chart, ranked No. 5 on Melon's 'Hot 100,' and reached No. 1 on the iTunes 'Top Songs' chart in nine countries and regions. It also hit No. 1 on China's Tencent Music weekly Korea chart. The music video surpassed 10 million YouTube views approximately 44 hours after its release, ranking No. 9 on YouTube's daily trending music video global chart and No. 1 in Singapore, while making the top 10 of daily trending charts in several other regions.

Even after wrapping up his promotional activities, EVAN's schedule continues. First, during a Weverse live broadcast, he expressed his gratitude to his fandom 'EVER' and pledged, 'I will become an artist who shares good energy in the future.' From the 13th to the 15th, he will meet listeners as the special DJ for MBC FM4U's 'Close Friends Broadcasting Club.'

His stage appearances will also continue. On August 9, he will participate in the '2026 SBS Gayo Daejeon Summer,' and on the 14th, he will join the 'Spotlight' special program held at the GRAMMY Museum in Los Angeles, USA. All tickets for that event sold out immediately upon release. He will then take the stage at 'KCON LA 2026' on the 16th.
