from20

from20 is the solo identity of Kim Rae-hwan, a singer, producer, and visual director who rebuilt his career on his own terms after the BIGSTAR chapter. He relaunched in March 2021 with 20; Still Greedy for Juicy, I'm Kissing This 20, then pushed quickly into a sleeker independent lane built on synth-pop, alt-R&B, and tightly controlled visual storytelling.

That reset became a real business once he co-founded WAY BETTER with HELLO GLOOM. The company gave from20 room to control releases, touring, merchandise, and image-making instead of chasing a standard post-idol template. Records such as 20, Bad Revenge, Demon, Eye Candy, and Social map out a catalog that feels nocturnal, polished, and deliberately adult.

The live side has grown with the music. The 2024 Fast On The Highway Europe run proved the project could travel, and the 2026 WAY BETTER World Tour: Global Warming widened that reach again across Seoul, Asia, and North America. from20 matters because he is not simply surviving after group life. He is building an artist-run model with enough taste and consistency to last.

Fans Also Ask

Who is from20?
from20 is the solo project of Kim Rae-hwan, a South Korean singer, producer, and visual director. He first entered K-pop through BIGSTAR, then relaunched in 2021 with a darker synth-pop sound and a more self-directed creative identity. His current work is built around songwriting, visuals, and artist-led planning rather than a conventional agency reset.
Was from20 in BIGSTAR?
Yes. Before his solo run, from20 promoted under his given name Rae-hwan in BIGSTAR. That period gave him his first industry platform, but his post-group catalog is where his identity sharpened most clearly. The solo pivot let him move away from standard idol framing into a more controlled artist-producer lane.
What company is from20 under?
from20 releases through WAY BETTER, the artist-led company he co-founded with <a href="/artists/hello-gloom">HELLO GLOOM</a>. That structure matters because it connects the music, visuals, merchandise, and touring strategy under one creator-first setup. It is a big part of why his second act feels cohesive instead of improvised.
What are from20's key songs?
His core run starts with the 2021 project <em>20</em> and continues through singles such as <em>Bad Revenge</em>, <em>Demon</em>, <em>Eye Candy</em>, <em>Social</em>, and the 2026 company single <em>119</em>. Together they define the glossy late-night synth-pop lane that separates his solo work from his earlier group chapter.
Has from20 toured internationally?
Yes. from20 expanded his overseas footprint through the 2024 <em>Fast On The Highway</em> Europe Tour, then returned to the road in 2026 for the <em>WAY BETTER World Tour: Global Warming</em>. Those runs mattered because they showed his audience could convert into real ticket demand across multiple markets, not just social buzz.
