Lee JinHyuk released the teaser for his title track ‘Work Work’ on Oct. 15. The teaser shows a busy Lee JinHyuk trying to multi-task as he works as a celebrity.
“Ctrl+V” consists of 6 songs that Lee JinHyuk helped produce himself. The meaning of the album name “Ctrl+V” comes from Lee JinHyuk trying to paste another side of himself (his inner self) onto the existing side of him that we already know. The ‘V’ is especially meaningful because it stands for his fandom V-DAN. He said that as he produced the album he focused on trying to make an album that fans could sympathize with. Track one is the title track ‘Work Work’ which is about a young workaholic who is asking his romantic interest to understand that he needs to focus on his work. It emphasizes the MZ generation’s struggle to find a balance between their work and love life. The second song is ‘Bang all night’ which is about escaping your boring daily life. The third track is ‘Dunk!’ which highlight’s Lee JinHyuk’s energy. The fourth song is ‘BLUE MARVEL’. Track five is ‘Coffee on Sunday’ which has a funky guitar melody and retro drum beat. The final song is ‘의미없= Art (Meaningless Art)’ which is a song about enjoying things without attaching too much meaning to them.
