EXO-Ls, wake up — Doh Kyungsoo (D.O.) just confirmed his highly-anticipated solo comeback for August 2025, and the king of vocals is finally returning to music after dominating the acting world!

SM Entertainment dropped the confirmation earlier today: D.O.’s second solo album is locked for an August release, complete with a full promotion cycle including music show appearances, variety guestings, and — yes — a nationwide fan meeting tour!

This comes after his 2021 solo debut “Empathy” shattered records with its jazz-pop perfection, and fans have been starving for new music ever since.
