TXT ‘The Dream Chapter: Magic’ album details:

TOMORROW X TOGETHER (SOOBIN, YEONJUN, BEOMGYU, TAEHYUN and HUENINGKAI) releases their first studio album The Dream Chapter: MAGIC today (Oct. 21) at 6:00pm KST/5:00am ET.

The Dream Chapter: MAGIC tells the story of the boys’ encounter together during their transition to adolescence, continued from the debut album The Dream Chapter: STAR which was released in March. The album contains the “magical adventures” that the boys encounter together with their friends who are different, yet alike.

The Dream Chapter: MAGIC includes 8 tracks: the lead single “9 and Three Quarters (Run Away)”, “New Rules”, “Roller Coaster”, “Poppin’ Star”, “Can’t We Just Leave The Monster Alive?” “Magic Island”, “20cm” and “Angel Or Devil”.

The lead single “9 and Three Quarters (Run Away)” is a Synth Pop song with elements of new wave. The song tells a story about the magical moment that unfolds when the boys are together. The lyrics suggest eloping into a special magical place that is only open to their friends. The powerful vocals of the five members, the unique lyrics and trendy melody make this piece another special song of TOMORROW X TOGETHER.

“New Rules” is a song about how they are willing to make new rules for their own world. “Roller Coaster” depicts the fearful yet exciting moment that is just like a rollercoaster ride. “Poppin’ Star” delivers the electrifying feeling that can be felt when playing with friends, referred to as popping stars that crackle inside the mouth. “Can’t We Just Leave The Monster Alive?” is a song that talks about wanting to stay in the virtual game world longer. “Magic Island” reminisces about the story of the first encounter on the island. “20cm” talks about the heart-throbbing feelings and innocent emotions of a teenage boy and “Angel Or Devil” sings about the two inner voices fighting endlessly.

Showing their innocent yet playful sides, TOMORROW X TOGETHER reinterprets various genres of music, ranging from Synth Pop, Acoustic Pop to Hip-Hop through their first studio album. Their performance also expresses energy and power.

Followed by the high-quality contents such as the concept trailer, concept photos, official teasers and album preview video released previously, the music and performance of their first studio album are to be revealed today amid high expectations.
