Template:Contains Korean text

Love Love Love is the first studio album by South Korean singer-songwriter Roy Kim, released and distributed on June 25, 2013 through CJ E&M Music. The album features nine tracks in total, and spawned two hit singles; the million-selling hit "Spring Spring Spring" and the lead single under the same title. It also earned Kim a Mnet Asian Music Award for Best New Male Artist, and a Golden Disk Award for New Rising Star Award in Disk Album.[1][2]

Background

Shortly after winning Superstar K4, it was announced that Roy Kim was preparing to release a mini album in spring 2013.[3] However, those plans were scrapped in favor of releasing Kim's first single "Spring Spring Spring" (Korean: 봄봄봄; RR: Bom Bom Bom) followed by a full-length album. Upon the release of "Spring Spring Spring" in April 2013, he began recording the rest of the album.[4] In June of that year, it was announced by CJ E&M Music that the singer was in the final stages of preparing for the album.[5]

Release and promotion

The album's pre-release single "Spring Spring Spring" topped the Gaon Singles Chart for two consecutive weeks, and the Billboard Korea K-Pop Hot 100 for three weeks in a row, respectively.[6][7][8] At the end of 2013, the song was ranked at number seven (2.9%) in the top ten of Gallup Korea's "Song of the Year", tied with Im Chang-jung's "A Guy Like Me" and 4Minute's "What's Your Name?".[9] According to the Gaon Chart, it remained the fourth most successful single of 2013,[10] selling over 1.5 million digital copies that year.[A]

On June 18, 2013, a week before the album's release, the album's track listing was revealed, along with a teaser image.[12] In the days leading up to the release, several more teasers were released, including the making-of videos of the recording process and a music video teaser.[13][14]

Upon release, Love Love Love debuted at number three on the Gaon Weekly Albums Chart,[15] while its title track reached number two on the Gaon Singles Chart and number four on the Billboard Korea K-Pop Hot 100.[16][17][18] Following the release of the album, Roy Kim appeared on Mnet's M! Countdown (June 27, 2013), where he performed "Let Me Love You" (Korean: 그대를 사랑한단 말; RR: Geudaereul Saranghandan Mal) and the album's title track.[19][20] He continued to promote the album on various music shows through July of that year.
