SF9 Shines Together on Special Album

SF9 released their special album SPECIAL HISTORY BOOK on October 5, 2020, the four year anniversary of their debut and just three months after the release of their mini-album 9loryUS. The special album consists of three new tracks, “Shine Together,” “Forever,” and “Love No.5.” At first listen, the songs seem incredibly different, with “Shine Together” being this soft, beautiful ballad written for Fantasys while final track “Love No.5” brings back the upbeat tempo and EDM elements we’ve come to associate with SF9. In between the two tracks is “Forever,” which incorporates elements from both songs—starting off as a soft pop track before introducing synthesizers at the chorus to make “Forever” a perfect middle track.  By doing this, these songs flow seamlessly from the first song to the last to create SPECIAL HISTORY BOOK.

The music video for title track “Shine Together” is definitely a tear-jerker. If you’re already a fan of SF9, expect to fall in love with them even more than you already do. If you’re not a fan, well get ready to meet nine of the sweetest boys on the planet. The music video paints a beautiful picture of not only how much the members love each other, but just how much they love Fantasy. The video shows each of the members as they look back at former comeback pictures, past concerts, and notes from their fans, each member smiling as they reminisce about those days. The video ends with the members all coming together to create the SF9 logo on the wall from the notes and pictures before sitting down to watch a highlight reel of their lives from debut to now, putting emphasis on the fanmeets and interacting with fans at their concerts, before closing with a note saying, “This video was made together with FANTASY. Thank you for being with us for 4 years. Let’s shine together now and forever.”
