SHINee's Taemin has released the digital single 'Veil'. This digital single 'Veil', released about 1 year and 1 month after the 5th mini-album 'ETERNAL', is a work infused with Taemin's unique artistic sense and musical color, harmonizing deep narrative and intense sensibility. This digital single includes the title track 'Veil' and another new song 'FINALE'. The title track 'Veil' is an intense song that confronts the surging desires that break taboos. The sharp texture and heavy beat maintain tension throughout, exuding an addictive charm that is hard to escape once hooked. The lyrics convey an inner confession that navigates between desire and fear, rather than simple temptation. 'FINALE' is a ballad that harmonizes delicate piano melodies with grand string arrangements, dramatically depicting the end of love and parting, infused with a grand narrative. Taemin expresses the emotions leading to the climax of the song with his unique delicate vocals, providing an immersive experience akin to watching a drama. Along with the new song release, he will hold the '2025 TAEMIN ARENA TOUR『Veil』' in Japan. The tour will kick off at Pia Arena MM in Kanagawa from the 13th to the 15th, featuring new song performances and his hit songs. This tour will showcase a stage that maximizes his unique artistry and performance, themed around 'the hypocrisy and taboo hidden behind the veil'. Taemin will continue the tour in Saga from September 20-21, Shizuoka from October 4-5, Chiba from November 29-30, and Hyogo from December 24-25.
