“HOME: DELUXE” is a repackaged version of their first full-length album “HOME,” released last June. The album consists of a total of 14 tracks, including the nine songs from the original album plus new tracks “ANIMAL” and “CLICHE,” as well as a Korean-language version of the Japanese single “Count To Love.”
The title track “ANIMAL” is an electro-punk song conveying the message, “I will constantly push past my limits to move toward a better tomorrow.” Member Liu personally participated in creating the choreography, incorporating movements that embody the motions of animals.
All tracks from the album will be released at 6:00 p.m. today via various online music platforms.
Boy Next Door stated through their agency, KOZ Entertainment, “We’re thrilled to be making a comeback so soon. We were so eager to make another comeback this year that we’ve been preparing for a repackaged album alongside our full-length album,” they said. “By combining the group’s serious side with the free-spirited vibe the public associates with us, we’ve created a perfect album. We’ve prepared songs with a different charm from our previous promotions, so we hope you’ll love them.”
They continued, “We’d love to hear people say, ‘Just looking at them makes me want to run and play,’” and added, “We’ll show you just how passionate we are about music and performing. We’ll deliver a vibe that’s both intense and free-spirited, so please look forward to it.”
