Gary's first ever solo album is introducing a whole new side of Gary to his fans. Just as his stage persona as a member of Leessang is different from his comical persona on SBS's "Running Man", fans are anticipating this new-look Gary to introduce music that is unique to himself as well.

As a member of Leessang, Gary is charismatic and powerful. He commands the stage and awes viewers and on-lookers with his skill. His identity as a hip hop artist is accentuated on stage.

As a member of SBS's "Running Man", Gary is much more personable. He often forms a tandem with Song Ji Hyo, another member of "Running Man", and the two are often called the "Monday Couple". He has many fans in China and the pacific countries thanks to his appearance on the show.

Gary's solo album, Mr. Gae, was released on January 15th. The album cover shows a different Gary, who is clad in a leather jacket and smoking a cigarette. He looks chic and sexy, two adjectives never attributed to Gary before.

He released his teaser image for his title song, "Drunken Night Tune". Lyrics such as "I'm gonna be a dog ('Gae' in Korean), drunken to a stupor" is drawing the interest of his fans. Gary revealed that his title song, "Drunken Night Tune" was the hardest song that he ever worked on. This solo album will be a first look into the artist Gary's mind.

His second title song, "Shower Later" has been labeled "Inappropriate for Under 19". It was deemed too revealing and sexy, but it's working to Gary's advantage. Fans are getting more and more curious about the song and its music video for which a teaser was released on January 14th. The song will push the boundaries of people's perception of Gary as an artist.

One thing is certain - whether he is on the stage with Gil as the duo Leessang, running around in the entertainment show "Running Man", or performing solo, Gary's multifaceted charm is bound to shine through.
