Description (Translated):
MONSTA X 9th mini albumMONSTA X aims for the best moment with the new mini-album 'One Of A Kind'. It is a new album released in about 7 months after the 3rd regular album 'Fatal Love' released in November 2020. Interest in this comeback is hotter than ever. An impressive record in the North American music market, No. 1 on Japan's Oricon album chart, sweeping awards such as the '2020 AAA' grand prize, Jooheon and I.M's achievements in solo activities. It is a new album that will once again present highlights at the peak moment.
The 9th mini album 'One Of A Kind' is the result of emphasizing 100% purity of MONSTA X. It was titled 'One Of A Kind' in the sense of showing the Monsta X style completed with stronger teamwork and deeper music and performance. This is also the meaning of MONSTA X's identity, which has a unique team color in the fierce K-pop scene. The visuals armed with a blockbuster scale, the immersiveness of the music video like a movie, and the intense music and performance are still overwhelming.
The title song 'GAMBLER' was produced by Jooheon, a member of MONSTA X, and is a signature track that shows fatal charm. It is a song about the eyes exchanged with each other and the feelings of feeling strong enough to bet everything, and it is enough to convey the confident energy of MONSTA X as it is. Starting with Jooheon's narration, 'If you don't know, now you know', which became the key keyword of this song, the song gives a sense of immersion without pause.
The message of 'GAMBLER', which compares the moment of breathtaking temptation to a game full of tension, is further embodied through the music video. The story that takes place in the clandestine auction delivers a strange thrill under the meticulous composition and mysterious atmosphere of a crime film. The various styles of the members who appear on and off the glamorous stages and runways are also impressive.
MONSTA X, who showed a high level of participation in each album, was also listed as a lyricist and composer for many songs. Jooheon, who was in charge of producing MONSTA X's first title song, participated in all songs, including the cool drive song "Heaven," and I.M, who left an impressive record with a mixtape, was also credited for all songs, including his own song "Rotate." In addition, Hyungwon, who is also active as DJ H. ONE, expressed his promise with fans that he has kept for six years through the b-side song 'BEBE'. As each member has expanded their respective fields through various activities, it will be an opportunity to show the musical growth of MONSTA X.
MONSTA X opens another beginning with the support of global fans. MONSTA X, who previously won the '2020 AAA' category for 'Stage of the Year' with their 3rd regular album, and won their first grand prize in 6 years of debut, received the '2020 MMA' Best Performance Award, '2020 MAMA' Best Stage Award, and '2020 TMA'. ' Artist of the Year Award, '35th Golden Disc Awards' Best Group Award, '2020 APAN Music Awards' TOP10, Represent Song Of This Year, etc., sweeping various awards ceremonies. In addition, the Japanese single 'WANTED' released in March topped the Oricon chart, proving the presence of a global group once again. Music fans around the world are paying attention to what MONSTA X, armed with differentiated music and performances, will show with 'One Of A Kind'.
Description (Original):
MONSTA X 미니9집몬스타엑스가 새 미니앨범 'One Of A Kind'로 최고의 순간을 겨냥한다. 2020년 11월 발표한 정규 3집 'Fatal Love' 이후 약 7개월 만에 공개하는 새 앨범이다. 이번 컴백에 대한 관심은 어느 때보다 뜨겁다. 북미 음악시장에서의 인상적인 기록, 일본 오리콘 앨범차트 1위, '2020 AAA' 대상을 비롯한 각종 시상식 석권, 솔로 활동에 나선 주헌과 아이엠의 성적까지. 그야말로 절정의 순간, 다시 한 번 하이라이트를 선사할 새 앨범이다.
9번째 미니앨범 'One Of A Kind'는 몬스타엑스의 순도 100%를 강조한 결과물이다. 보다 단단해진 팀워크와 깊어진 음악과 퍼포먼스로 완성된 몬스타엑스 스타일을 보여준다는 의미에서 'One Of A Kind'란 타이틀을 붙였다. 이는 치열한 케이팝 씬에서 유일무이한 팀 컬러를 가진 몬스타엑스 정체성의 의미이기도 하다. 블록버스터급 스케일로 무장한 비주얼, 영화와 같은 뮤직비디오의 몰입도, 강렬한 음악과 퍼포먼스는 여전히 압도적이다.
타이틀곡 ' GAMBLER'는 몬스타엑스의 멤버 주헌이 프로듀싱을 맡은 곡으로, 치명적인 매력 보여주는 시그니처 트랙이다. 서로 주고 받는 눈빛, 모든 걸 배팅할 정도로 강한 끌림을 느낀 감정에 대한 곡으로, 자신감 넘치는 몬스타엑스의 에너지를 그대로 전달하기에 충분하다. 이 곡의 핵심 키워드가 된 'If you don’t know, now you know'라는 주헌의 내레이션을 시작으로 쉴 틈 없이 몰입감을 선사한다.
숨막히는 유혹의 순간을 긴장감 넘치는 게임에 빗댄 ' GAMBLER'의 메시지는 뮤직비디오를 통해 더욱 구체화된다. 은밀하게 진행된 시크릿 옥션에서 벌어지는 스토리는 범죄 영화의 치밀한 구성과 신비로운 분위기 아래 묘한 스릴을 전달한다. 화려한 스테이지와 활주로 등을 오가며 등장하는 멤버들의 다양한 스타일링도 인상적이다.
매 앨범 높은 참여도를 보였던 몬스타엑스는 이번에도 다수 곡의 작사·작곡 진에 이름을 올렸다. 몬스타엑스 첫 타이틀곡 프로듀싱을 맡게 된 주헌은 시원한 드라이브 송 'Heaven'을 비롯해 전곡에 참여했으며, 믹스테이프로 인상적인 기록을 남긴 아이엠 역시 자작곡 'Rotate'를 포함해 전곡의 크레딧에 이름을 올렸다. 또, DJ H. ONE으로도 활동 중인 형원은 수록곡 'BEBE'를 통해 6년간 지켜온 팬들과의 다짐을 노래에 담았다. 그간 각 멤버들이 다양한 활동으로 각자의 영역을 확장해온 만큼 뚜렷한 몬스타엑스의 음악적 성장을 보여줄 계기가 될 것이다.
몬스타엑스는 글로벌 팬들의 응원 속에 또 다른 시작을 연다. 앞서 정규 3집으로 ‘2020 AAA’에서 ‘올해의 스테이지’ 부문을 수상, 데뷔 6년 만에 첫 대상을 거머쥔 몬스타엑스는 ‘2020 MMA’ 베스트 퍼포먼스상, ‘2020 MAMA’ 베스트 스테이지상, ‘2020 TMA’ 올해의 아티스트상, ‘제35회 골든디스크어워즈’ 베스트 그룹상, ‘2020 APAN Music Awards’ TOP10, Represent Song Of This Year 등 각종 시상식을 휩쓸었다. 또 3월 발매한 일본 싱글 ‘WANTED’로 오리콘 차트 정상을 차지하며 또 한 번 글로벌 그룹의 존재감을 입증했다. 차별화된 음악과 퍼포먼스로 무장한 몬스타엑스가 'One Of A Kind'로 어떤 모습을 선보일지 전 세계 음악 팬들의 이목이 집중되고 있다.
