In particular, the new album “ETERNAL” is the first production album in which TAEMIN participated in the entire process, from planning to music, jacket concept, and music video, and fully demonstrated his capabilities as an artist and producer by deeply capturing what only TAEMIN can do.

The title track, “Sexy In The Air,” shows Taemin's inTENse energy through the sharp electric guitar sound combined with lyrics that express his strong self-identity, pride, and desire for change and self-expression.

In addition, the double title track “Horizon” is an upbeat dance song in the modern synth-pop genre with a lIVEly and dynamic melody, and it reflects Taemin's story of breaking out of his comfort zone and breaking the mold.

In addition to this, you will be able to meet TAEMIN's message in a sophisticated and sensual way through seven songs, including “G.O.A.T” in the hip-hop style, “The Unknown Sea” with an acoustic sound and lyrical emotion, “Crush” and “Say Less” in the electric pop genre, and “Deja Vu” in a dreamy mood.
