[DiaryPoint Reporter Park Bo-young] Taeyeon will release her fourth full-length album, ‘Unspecial,’ at 6 p.m. on November 30. The album features 12 tracks, including its title song. The schedule poster released on November 10 arrived 20 days before the album’s release.
On November 10, Taeyeon shared a promotional schedule poster titled ‘Date Marks’ on her official social media accounts. The rollout is set to begin with a trailer on November 16, followed by teaser images, album details, a highlight medley previewing snippets of the tracks, and a teaser for the title track’s music video. Sports Donga reported that the poster uses best-before dates on items in a shopping basket to mark when content will be released.
The poster lays out the schedule using dates printed on groceries in the basket. According to reports, the eggs are marked with dates and labels ranging from ‘Collection 01’ to ‘Collection 04.’ Fans can check Taeyeon’s official social media accounts and YouTube channel for new teasers and schedule updates as they are released.
Preorders opened on November 9 and close at 11:59 p.m. on November 29. According to Weverse Shop Global, the standard edition is set for release on November 30, while the EXP. edition is scheduled for December 14. Weverse Shop Global says preorders may close early if the available stock runs out. Sales of these albums will count toward Hanteo Chart and Circle Chart totals, according to the notice.
This is Taeyeon’s first full-length album in about four years and 10 months, following her third album, ‘INVU,’ released in February 2022. Melon’s album listing says ‘INVU’ came out on February 14, 2022, with 13 tracks. Alongside the title track, the album included ‘Some Nights,’ ‘Toddler,’ and ‘Weekend.’
‘INVU’ ranged across genres, from house-influenced pop dance to R&B ballads and pop dance tracks built around disco rhythms. Melon’s album notes describe the title track ‘INVU’ as featuring a flute melody in the chorus and synth sounds, while ‘Some Nights’ is an R&B ballad that samples Edvard Grieg’s ‘Solveig’s Song.’ Taeyeon’s pre-release content rollout begins November 16.
