JL Releases “Alon” Before His K-Pop Debut

JL Gaspar, the talented artist formerly of the P-Pop group PLUUS, is proud to announce the release of his newest single "Alon" scheduled to drop on June 6, 2025. This emotional pop anthem serves as both a heartfelt farewell to his time with PLUUS and a meaningful introduction to his new journey as a member of an upcoming K-Pop group, a position he earned after excelling on the popular K-Pop survival show Universe League.

"Alon," recorded in 2024 while JL was still in the Philippines and before auditioning for Universe League, captures the feeling of drowning in love and the painful uncertainty that often accompanies it: “Ako’y nalulunod, hindi makaahon. Sabihin mo kung ano ba talaga kasi. Ano bang meron sa’tin, na hindi mo masabi? Kailan ko malalaman, kung nalulunod ka na rin sa akin?”

JL may be entering a new chapter with the debut of his new K-Pop group, but in the meantime his single as a solo artist is here for us to enjoy. 

Released under Universal Records, you can start streaming “Alon” on all major streaming platforms starting June 6, and watch out for its music video coming out soon.
