Though TVXQ!’s last official studio release ‘New Chapter #2 : The Truth of Love’ dropped five years ago, marking their 15th anniversary in December 2018, the members have kept fans busy with various solo activities.
In early 2023, U-KNOW released his third extended play ‘Reality Show’, preceded by MAX CHANGMIN releasing his sophomore EP ‘Devil’ in 2022.
Following the release of ‘20&2’ – which stands for 20 years & 2 members – the legendary duo will continue the albums accompanying tour, which kicked off in Seoul, South Korea at the end of December last year.
In January the pair will visit Hong Kong, before heading to Bangkok in Thailand and Taipei in Taiwan in early February.
’20&2′ is now available to download / stream on various music sites including iTunes, Apple Music, and Spotify now.
