Shocking comeback for fans: Project group Wanna One are dropping a brand-new fan song after seven years, and the members themselves picked the track to express their love for Wannable (Wanna One’s fandom).
On the May 19 broadcast of Mnet Plus’s reality series Wanna One Go: Back to Base (hereafter 'Wanna One Go'), the members held a listening session for 10 fan-song candidates. In a free, relaxed setting, they shared candid reactions to each track and even guessed the composers just from the vibe and part distribution, sparking laughter as they immediately recognized each other’s working styles. When songs penned by Lee Dae Hwi, Ha Sung Woon, Kim Jae Hwan, and Yoon Ji Sung were revealed in turn, the group reacted warmly while trying to identify the creators.
In the end, the final choice was 'Again, Spring Breeze,' composed by Ha Sung Woon. Explaining the track, he said, "I’d been working on it while thinking of Wannable even before 'Wanna One Go' started," adding, "I’m grateful we can finally let fans hear it." He shared that he wrote the song with each member’s distinct vocals and aura in mind, underscoring the heartfelt intent behind this fan song.
'Again, Spring Breeze' is a ballad that captures the warm moment that returns after a long wait. Centered on the message, "Let’s meet again, when the spring breeze passes by," it channels the members’ feelings for fans who have waited for Wanna One for so long. The track naturally aligns with the reunion arc of the reality series, reading as more than just an OST—it expands the shared emotions of time between Wanna One and Wannable into music.
The broadcast also revealed that the mysterious composer behind Candidate No. 10 was Kang Daniel. Surprised by the unexpected credit, the members agreed, "He really writes great songs," and marveled that Kang Daniel had been working on music even before enlisting. Lee Dae Hwi admitted he finally understood why Kang always said he was in the studio whenever they spoke back then, adding a touching note.
Through this fan song, Wanna One are delivering more than a simple reunion. Members who have been active in their own lanes came together to choose a song for fans and directly took part in completing it—the process itself became a gift. Released alongside 'Wanna One Go,' 'Again, Spring Breeze' is poised to be the warmest snapshot of Wanna One’s present and their bond with fans.
'Again, Spring Breeze' drops on May 20 at 6 p.m. KST across major online music platforms.
