The group Super Junior is set to make another powerful leap as it celebrates its 20th debut anniversary.
Super Junior unveiled all tracks from their 12th regular album 'Super Junior25' (슈퍼주니어 이오) and the music video for the title track 'Express Mode' (익스프레스 모드) through various music sites at 6 p.m. on the 8th.
Super Junior, which first appeared in the music industry with the debut song 'Twins' in 2005, is Korea's first large-scale multi-member idol group that presented a new model for K-pop. Through numerous hit songs, unit activities, entertainment, and acting, they have established themselves as the 'representative idol' of K-pop, and their status remains strong even after 20 years.
Marking its 20th anniversary this year, Super Junior is expected to once again demonstrate its strength as an all-time multiplayer group through this new release.
The album title 'Super Junior25,' determined by the members' ideas, continues from the debut album released in 2005, which was also the first regular album 'Super Junior05' (슈퍼주니어 공오), reflecting on the mindset at the time of their debut and carrying the meaning of continuously upholding the name of Super Junior.
The title track 'Express Mode' is an up-tempo club pop song that feels cool energy, characterized by its danceable sound and addictive chorus. The lyrics convey an ambitious attitude that aims to move forward towards the next goal without stopping at the present, allowing listeners to experience Super Junior's 'ultimate style.'
"Watch me 1 step 2 step 3 step 4 / Your gaze Flip it, breath getting faster / Watch me 1 step 2 step 3 step 4 / Up we go, you and I are now in Express Mode / We we in / A world we've never been to (We in Express Mode) / Facing another thrill (We we in Express Mode) / I want to see it all from high up / On the cloud, you and I are now"
The music video released alongside features cool and cybernetic visuals, along with the members' still-precise choreography that captures attention.
Having attempted various genre and concept changes with each album, Super Junior demonstrates limitless expansibility once again in a manner fitting an 'all-time multiplayer.' This album, commemorating the 20th anniversary of their debut, encapsulates Super Junior's past while showing the team's will toward a still-in-progress future. Expectations are high for what steps Super Junior will take next, as they continue to race forward with enduring passion.
