Taemin will perform each of the two songs on television music chart shows for the first time on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.
From Thursday until Sept. 1, an exhibit for the new album will be held in Seoul. On Aug. 31 and Sept. 1, the artist will host a concert in Incheon and kick off his first solo tour “Ephemeral Gaze.” The Seoul gig will be livestreamed globally online.

It is the fourth single from the band to log over 500,000 shipments in the US, and sixth overall, including the third studio album “Five-Star” and the eighth EP “Rock-Star.”
“Thunderous” is the lead single from the second LP “Noeasy” which came out in August 2021. The song earned the band its first trophy from a television music chart show and a spot on Melon’s Top 100 chart while the album became its first million-seller.
Meanwhile, the octet’s ninth EP “Ate” surpassed 3 million in sales last week. The mini-album came out last month and debuted atop the Billboard 200. The main track “Chk Chk Boom” ranked No. 49 on its Hot 100, a record for the band.

He has set many records as a solo artist with “Seven” which claimed the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Hot 100, a first for an Asian solo singer. The single generated 1.8 billion streams on Spotify as of last week, the shortest time for an Asian singer, after earning multiple Guinness World Records.
