펜타곤 (PENTAGON) - 미니 12집 [IN:VITE U] (Flare Ver)

‘IN:VITE U To New World’ An invitation to the new world encountered by PENTAGON, a space that is as dangerous as it is alluring. PENTAGON's 12th Mini Album [IN:VITE U] PENTAGON, who has sung of honest and confident love in every album with tracks like ‘Shine’, ‘Daisy’, and ‘DO or NOT’, makes a comeback with their 12th mini album [IN:VITE U], adding self-awareness and inner maturity. Returning approximately 10 months after [LOVE or TAKE], PENTAGON's 12th mini album [IN:VITE U] combines ‘INVITE’ and ‘VITE’ (meaning ‘fast’), carrying the captivating title “An invitation to the new world encountered by PENTAGON, falling quickly for you whom I met there,” while delivering more mature music and performances. The new world PENTAGON invites you to is a space where a new definition of love unfolds—one where PENTAGON has realized that love, like the flow of time, arrives and stays naturally, creating fragments of moments before flowing away once again. Within this new love, PENTAGON sings of growth and change, as well as the sincerity and preciousness of irreversible moments. This also signifies that the album fully captures PENTAGON's capabilities, which have been solidly built internally. With the members' names appearing in the lyrics and composition of all six tracks, they have not only diversified their musical colors more than before but also increased the authenticity of the songs by honestly capturing their own stories, deepened through inner maturity. The title track ‘Feelin’ Like’ is the song that best expresses PENTAGON's changed attitude, brilliantly decorating the first chapter where another story of PENTAGON unfolds. A trendy and rhythmic melody over a heavy, heart-pounding beat showcases PENTAGON's delicate and captivating vocals without filter, creating a strange addiction. ‘Feelin’ Like’ is expected to paint a fresh and high-quality stage through not only PENTAGON's mature and chic visuals—which have not been seen before—but also storytelling using various objects and a performance characterized by relaxed movements and mood that stand out amidst the intensity. In particular, the music video for the new song, which reinterprets objects of ‘temptation’ expressed in ancient artworks with a modern sensibility, delivers PENTAGON's seductive and strong attraction that stimulates the five senses, fully exerting a unique charm that makes viewers feel as though they have no choice but to accept their invitation. PENTAGON's 12th mini album [IN:VITE U], containing a new definition of love. They invite you to this sweet and alluring place they have encountered. 01. Feelin’ Like Composed by Ryan J, Kristin Marie, Vegard Hurum, Jop Pangemanan Lyrics by HAEE, KINO, Jinho, Wooseok Arranged by Ryan J, Vegard Hurum A perfect harmony of intensely striking Pop and R&B genres that creates a strong addiction from the intro, ‘Feelin’ Like’ cites the story of Galatea, the female statue of Pygmalion reborn through a kiss, to express awakening, pleasure, and arousal in their own language, capturing the new way of love encountered by PENTAGON. In particular, members Jinho, Kino, and Wooseok participated in the lyrics, clearly demonstrating their aspect as a self-producing group, and begin their own more luxurious story with a style and performance different from the music PENTAGON has shown previously. 02. 한탕 (One Shot) Composed by Wooseok, NATHAN, Shinwon Lyrics by Wooseok, Shinwon Arranged by NATHAN, MILLENNIUM Like an indispensable seasoning in delicious food, Pentagon's bold and great attempt to capture the tastes of listeners continues. An alternative rock genre track, ‘한탕 (One Shot)’ strongly captures everyone's ears from the start with a provocative and flashy hard rock guitar riff sound. Metaphorically expressing our lives as being in a state of having the final bullet loaded and attempting a "one shot" without fear, it captures an exciting atmosphere and explosive energy. The subject ‘you’ appearing in ‘한탕 (One Shot)’ allows listeners to assign diverse meanings depending on what goal or person they think of, doubling the fun of the song. 03. The Game Composed by Wooseok, NATHAN, yunji, HOHO Lyrics by Wooseok Arranged by NATHAN, yunji An electronic genre track with provocative glitch synth sounds and rock elements, ‘The Game’ compares the tension-filled happenings of life to a game, expressing Pentagon's own relaxed attitude of laughing off any situation pleasantly and wittily. In particular, including the intense and addictive hook lyrics ‘Live more, run hard, blow it all,’ and the addition of opera elements throughout the song, it imprints Pentagon's more unique and matured musical color. 04. Call My Name Composed by Kino, Kim Sion, Milano Lyrics by Kino, HAEE, Wooseok Arranged by Kim Sion, Son Yosep, Hyeogdu Choi Kino and producer Kim Sion, who built their own musical style and demonstrated high synergy by attempting various genres such as ‘When Rain Falls at Night’ and ‘HAPPINESS KR Ver.,’ have teamed up once again. Capturing the friction of lips pronouncing my name and the strong tension felt in that moment, this song sings a deeper story of each other, evolving from the motif of ‘voice’ found in Kino's previously released mixtape track ‘Voicegasm.’ 05. 관람차 (Sparkling Night) Composed by Kino, ROAMER DOZE Lyrics by Kino, Wooseok Arranged by ROAMER DOZE Expressing a Ferris wheel spinning and shining at the center of a beach where countless stars flow, a sparkling amusement park, and our beautiful night, this song was written and composed with the participation of member Kino, filling it with his characteristic faint and emotional atmosphere. ‘관람차 (Sparkling Night)’ compares the feeling of not being able to easily get off because the scenery is too beautiful, despite knowing that one must eventually descend as time passes, to ‘meeting’ and ‘parting.’ In particular, the honest lyrics over a calm and warm melody that contrasts with the poignant emotions provide a high level of immersion for the listener. 06. BAD Composed by Wooseok, Siixk Jun Lyrics by Wooseok Arranged by Siixk Jun A man who loves his partner more than anyone, yet his situation and those around him say that breaking up is the only answer. Is letting the other person go the answer? This song contains our familiar and bad breakup story, speaking of the "wicked consideration" of wishing for the other person's happiness until the moment of parting. ‘BAD,’ which member Wooseok participated in writing and composing, is a song where a simple yet concise guitar riff, a catchy melody, and classic, minimal sources form the main rhythm, evoking deep empathy and comfort for everyone facing a breakup or experiencing the pain of one.
