Background and release

Taemin in 2018.

On September 22, 2018, the official SHINee Japanese Instagram account posted a highlight medley for the upcoming Taemin album, although at that time the album was reported to be titled Eclipse.[5] It was also announced that the "Eclipse" single would be released on September 26.[5][6]

On October 3, 2018, Taemin officially announced that he would release his first Japanese studio album on November 28, 2018.[7] The album would feature "Eclipse" as the lead single, which was first released during the TAEMIN Japan 1st TOUR ~SIRIUS~.[8] A live version music video for the single was subsequently released on YouTube on November 6, 2018.[9] The second single, "Mars", was released on October 14, 2018.[10]

The song "What’s This Feeling" from the album is the theme song for the Japanese drama Final Life: Even If You Disappear Tomorrow, which Taemin starred in.[8][11][12] The album also includes two previously released Japanese songs, "Sayonara Hitori" and "Flame of Love". "Sayonara Hitori" was released on Taemin's Sayonara Hitori EP on July 27, 2016,[13] with a music video released earlier on July 5, 2016.[14] Similarly, "Flame of Love" was released on Taemin's Flame of Love EP on July 18, 2017,[15] with a music video released earlier on June 26, 2017.[16] In addition to this, the album contains three Japanese versions of songs that were previously released in Korean by Taemin: "Drip Drop", "Danger", and "Press Your Number".[1]

The music video for Taemin's new song "Under My Skin" was released on November 12, 2018 (November 13 JST).[17][18][19] On November 24, 2018, Taemin will host a release celebration for his album on TV.[20][21]

The album was released in three versions: a normal version, a first press limited edition, and a fan club limited edition. The first press limited edition includes a DVD with music videos and a shooting sketch video, while the fan club limited edition includes a DVD with front-row recordings of Taemin's performance at the Pacifico Yokohama National Convention Hall during his TAEMIN Japan 1st TOUR ~SIRIUS~.[22]
