2018-Present: Burning Planet & Solo Debut
Ahead of Mino's official solo debut, Mino launched an exhibition in early October called Burning Planet in collaboration with Gentle Monster. Notably, big stars like actor Lee Dong-hwi, Block B's P.O, Li Yi Feng and many others visited the exhibition. The exhibition was held for about a month. Furhermore, Hypebeast critiqued the exhibition to have deep and symbolic forms, such as perfectly displaying being "burnt out" in life, touching on aspects where societies literally work themselves to death. On November 26th, Mino released his first solo album, XX, with a title song called FIANCE. Mino described Fiance as a "trot-hip-hip song", that sampled the 1970's song Songgayang Maid, a song with similar ideas about loving another person's loved one. It reached a high chart position of #1 on NAVER for 3 days.

In September 2018, it was reported that Song Mino donated his entire modelling fee for his appearance in the Balenciaga X Dazed collaboration to the United Nation's World Food Programme, a humanitarian organization that aims for a world without hunger.- Wikipedia Last Updated 17 March 2021
