Lee Chan-hyuk of the group Akmu has revealed changes since establishing his independent label.

On the 17th, a video titled "Inspiration's Flower Has Bloomed w. Lee Chan-hyuk" was released on the YouTube channel 'Lee So-ra'.

That day, Lee Chan-hyuk revealed his office located in Jongno-gu, Seoul, and stated that "it was not built long ago".

After parting ways with YG Entertainment, he established the independent label 'Inspiration's Spring' and embarked on a full-scale journey of independence. Lee Chan-hyuk stated, "First, it's good that I can work with people I like. It's good that I can live fully with the inspirations I personally chose as if they were family. Since we are in the early stages, the bonds are stronger".

He continued, "I can feel it in the atmosphere. Whether we go to shoot a music video or participate in volunteer activities, all my inspirations go with me. It's not just about going; I want to think about what I'm doing, receive inspiration, and then return to explain it. But if we experience it together, everyone just knows", eliciting admiration.

Akmu recently released their fourth full album 'Bloom', and Lee Chan-hyuk said, "We do it when we can. I believe loneliness is inevitable, and the answer is to come together since everyone is lonely". He added, "The title of our third album, released in 2019, was 'Voyage', and a year later, we chose the title 'Bloom'. We cannot leave on a voyage and live on the sea; it is time to settle somewhere and build our own world. We didn't know when that time would come, but that time has arrived".

He further added, "In the meantime, there was Sohyun's slump, my own free-spirited activities, and time spent acting. All of that has become practice, and 'now the time has come'".
