Livestreaming from a recording studio, the singer and aspiring actor said he was working hard to be able to showcase it at an upcoming fan meeting scheduled for Feb. 9.

“I am recording a song composed by a great composer,” he said on the V Live broadcast, later revealing the person to be Lee.

It was Park’s first V Live broadcast as a solo artist. Lee’s personal channel on the livestreaming platform was created only a day earlier.

“Dae-hwi comes over here and directs the recording process,” Park added.

Park’s agency, Maroo Entertainment, said earlier in the day that the child actor-turned-singer was considering starring in a new JTBC TV series scheduled to premiere in May.

“Since my channel was created today, I am doing a surprise V Live,” he said.

He said he had been practicing, had ordered food for lunch and was makeup-free.

While answering questions from viewers, his lunch arrived and he continued to chat while eating.

Kang has a habit of biting his lips and his lips are almost always chapped.

“I apply Vaseline. I work with Vaseline on my lips,” he said, adding that he used Vaseline as a remedy for dry skin as well.

The 22-year-old singer is pursuing a solo career under LM Entertainment, after Wanna One, a project group consisting of the 11 finalists on the TV show “Produce 101,” disbanded following a final concert Jan. 27.
