SM Entertainment’s TEN Lee has finally released his third solo track “Paint Me Naked,” along with an authentically fun music video. After dropping teasers over the past two weeks, fans were more than excited to see what the star had in store.

“So tell me, where you wanna take it?” TEN begins in the addictive chorus. “I’m your figure, you could paint me naked / Like a picture, I can see our love running wild / Baby, be my weekend.”
Thanks to official teaser photos, creative images with TEN’s signature doodles, and a video trailer clip, fans have waited eagerly for the song’s release date. In the past, TEN has shared two other solo tracks for SM Entertainment’s SM Station—a digital music project which strives to provide new music every Friday.
These past projects, “Dream in a Dream” and “New Heroes,” also demonstrate TEN’s unique talents and passionate persona. However, with his last independent track being from 2018, the K-Pop world was ready to see how much TEN has grown as a performer. With the quality, individuality, and raw emotion he delivered in “Paint Me Naked,” it is safe to say TEN Lee truly encompasses what it means to be an artist.
TEN remains busy as a member of three K-Pop supergroups: NCT, a China-based subunit WayV, and SuperM. His exact schedule remains unknown to the public, but fans are always ready to provide support during the next steps of his musical journey. Be sure to check out “Paint Me Naked” above.
