In addition, he tried a new way by omitting the CD from his second album "IM HERO 2 (I'm Hero 2)" and composing the package only with "Album Book". The decision was introduced in consideration of reducing the economic burden on fans and protecting the environment.

I'm Hero the Stadium, a live performance film released in 2024, recorded a cumulative audience of 350,000, ranking first among all live performance films of all time.
