.BI_131official has released the highly-anticipated 'Love or Loved,' the first part of his latest album as a solo artist.
B.I’s perspective — and commitment to his music — has undeniably been shaped by the ups and downs of the last few years. He left iKon in 2019 amid allegations of buying and using marijuana. Under Korea’s strict drug laws, he was sentenced to four years of probation and community service.

He describes his approach as a solo artist as bolder and more experimental than what he was able to create as part of a larger collective. “These stories are personal while at the same time unbounded. I cannot say working as a solo artist doesn’t come with any hardships but I’m trying to rise above them,” he says.
The songs on “Love or Loved” are upbeat and the album “emphasizes love above all else when it comes to the subject of youth,” he describes.
