[Dispatch=Reporter Min-ji Gu] MONSTA X's Shownu X Hyungwon showcase a distinctive vocal chemistry.

Shownu X Hyungwon will release their second mini album "LOVE ME" on major music platforms on the 21st at 6 p.m. On the 11th, they previewed the new album's title track and concept.

"LOVE ME" explores love in various textures. The sensibilities of the two have become more refined and deeper. It is an album characterized by restrained mood and sophisticated atmosphere.

The title track is "Do You Love Me." A solid yet rhythmic drum sound is complemented by brass and guitar, along with the two's charming vocals.

The lyrics of the new song are also noteworthy. It captures the precarious emotional tug-of-war of pushing and pulling at each other without confirming their love, demanding answers. It hints at high addictiveness.

The new album contains a total of 7 tracks. You can also hear Shownu and Hyungwon's solo tracks "Around & Go" and "NO AIR." They have completed deeper music.

On this day, concept films and photos were also released on SNS. It is the "Losing Control" version. The video shows the two appearing empty and listless in a messy room.

They expressed frustration looking at their phones with no incoming messages. They expressed their complicated inner thoughts and anguish through restlessness. The phrase "Do You Love Me" was repeatedly written throughout.

The concept photos were also impressive. They dominated with intense makeup and gaze. They expressed a dark atmosphere through a casual style. This heightened expectations for the new album.
