Editor's note

MINO, the WINNER rapper with a solo edge

A rapper and songwriter who balances group work with his own sharp, moody tracks.

For a quick sense of his range, put '겁 (Fear)' next to something like 'Body'. It's all MINO, just different shades.

MINO's solo work carves out a distinct space from his WINNER duties, often leaning into darker, more introspective territory. Songs like '겁 (Fear) (feat. Taeyang)' and 'Run away' show a willingness to explore anxiety and escape, while 'O2' and 'Aurora' offer moments of atmospheric calm. His collaborations, such as 'LANGUAGE (feat. BOBBY)', highlight his place in a wider hip-hop scene.

He emerged as part of the K-pop group WINNER, but his solo catalog has grown steadily since. The tracks suggest a shift toward more personal, sometimes brooding material alongside brighter moments like 'Hope (feat. Yoo Byungjae)'.

Archive material and source history

MINO, born Song Min-ho in 1993, is a rapper and songwriter who first gained attention through the reality competition show 'WIN: Who is Next?' That led to his debut in 2014 as part of the boy band WINNER, whose first single 'Empty' found immediate success in South Korea.

He's also built a solo career alongside his group work. His 2016 debut album 'XX' included the track 'Fiancé,' which became a hit. Other solo songs like 'Body' and 'Ok Man' show his range as a performer who can handle both rap and melodic hooks.

While his straightforward style has sometimes sparked debate, he's generally kept moving forward with music. He's put out additional solo material like the EP 'Song Maek' and collaborated on projects such as 'The MOBB' with Bobby. His work with WINNER continued through albums like 'New World' in 2018.
