‘It Flows’ will notably mark the K-pop idol’s first solo output since his third Japanese-language EP ‘Delight 2’, which dropped in 2017. It will also be his first solo Korean-language release in only a decade, since the song ‘Wings’, which was featured on Big Bang’s 2012 mini-album ‘Alive’.

The new song will also be Daesung’s first music release since he signed with a new label, R&D Company, in April following the expiration of his contract with longtime agency YG Entertainment last year. Since then, Daesung and R&D Company have established a dedicated subdivision called D-LABLE to manage the singer’s activities.

In other Big Bang news, bandmate G-Dragon was recently investigated for alleged drug use in late October. A day later, the Big Bang member released a statement through his lawyer denying the allegations against him, claiming that he has “never used drugs”.

On November 6, the musician appeared for police questioning and a urine drug test. Following the session, G-Dragon told media that he tested negative for drugs and had “asked the police to carry out an emergency extensive test”.
