Max or Changmin was lined up as the MC for Yunho's comeback press conference. He admitted that he saw firsthand the process of making Noir's album, and saw how hard Yunho worked for his comeback this time.
"I worked hard on this album from the very beginning. Noir means black, and it describes a person's various emotions," said Yunho.
"Life is like a movie, and I want to make a 'cinematic album' too," he continued.
Yunho also explained the purpose of the cinematic album he brought in Noir's comeback. This concept made Yunho prepare a film or video track that was deliberately made for each song on the album.
"There are movie tracks released for each song. I want to visually reveal and show all the different genres and emotions in each song," explained Yunho.
In Noir's album, there are 6 songs that have been prepared by Yunho and their film tracks. The first is Time Machine, which is described as a hyper-pop song with a futuristic atmosphere like a science fiction film.
Followed by the song Loco, which is similar to a comedy film, trendy Need You Right Now, as well as La Rosa which is similar to a melodrama film. In the song, Yunho collaborated with actress Shin Ye Eun.
"Shin Ye Eun is very professional. She managed to express the emotions of this song well. I was very lucky to be able to work with her. She even took vocal classes before recording this song," said Yunho.
In addition, there are the songs Eeny Meeny and Thank U. Thank U was chosen as the main song to be promoted by Yunho.
"Thank U is a pop dance song that explains who I am and where I am going. This song shows a dramatic development in an action film noir. Besides, this drama also shows the characteristics of pop music as well," he added.
"This album is like a musical, and I show it through choreography and gestures. Fans can see my new side through this album. Executive producer Lee (Soo Man) has watched the music video and praised the final result," concluded Yunho.
The music video for Thank U was taken very seriously. Even given an adult rating for the MV.
