Taeyang is set to release his 4th full-length album, ‘QUINTESSENCE’, on May 18th, which also happens to be his birthday! This marks his first full album in 9 years since ‘WHITE NIGHT’ in August 2017, already sparking massive excitement among global K-pop fans.
The visual concept is also raising expectations. The released visual film blends simple yet intense colors, a unique texture from low resolution, and aggressive beats to clearly showcase Taeyang’s distinct aura. From restrained charisma in mono tones to flashy hair colors and bold styling, Taeyang is teasing a complete transformation in both his music and visuals for this comeback.
To celebrate the comeback, an album exhibition will provide a special experience for fans. From May 18th to 31st, Taeyang will hold an exhibition in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. This space will visually expand the message of the album, allowing fans to experience Taeyang’s musical world in a more multi-dimensional way.
This release is especially meaningful as it is a full-length project after a long wait. Taeyang has solidified his position as an all-rounder solo artist with his vocals, performance, stage presence, and musical sensibility. ‘QUINTESSENCE’ is expected to be an album that condenses Taeyang’s journey and reveals what he values most at this moment.
After a long hiatus, all eyes are on Taeyang to see what essence and core he will deliver through this new album.
