The group CNBLUE (Jung Yonghwa, Kang Minhyuk, Lee Jungshin) revealed behind-the-scenes footage of its conceptual photoshoot for its new album.
The agency FNC ENTERTAINMENT released a video on January 15 on its official social media channels showing behind-the-scenes of the photoshoot for the 3rd studio album “3LOGY”.
The photoshoot was carried out around two distinct concepts, highlighting different facets of CNBLUE. The first session adopted a busker concept, illustrating the group’s desire to make their music resonate in an empty, desolate world. KANG MIN HYUK stated: “This concept expresses our ambition: ‘to spread our music in a world stripped of everything!’ We paid particular attention to objects like the wooden speaker.”
The second session focused on a rock star concept. LEE JUNG SHIN explained: “We used a triangular structure as the background, symbolizing the three axes formed by the members, reflecting the name of the album ‘3LOGY’. This gives it an additional meaning.” JUNG YONG HWA added: “This photoshoot reflects a more mature CNBLUE. It highlights the rocker within me, and I think the fans will enjoy it.”
CNBLUE released its new album “3LOGY” on January 7 and began intense promotional activities. The members shared: “This album was anticipated not only by our fans but also by ourselves. Every song was worked on carefully and includes our own compositions. The title track ‘Killer joy’ is made for going wild at concerts and suits us perfectly. We hope you enjoy it.”
Since its release, “3LOGY” has achieved remarkable performances on national and international charts. The album quickly reached 1st place on the three iTunes charts (Top Albums, POP Albums, KPOP Albums) in 7 regions, as well as on the Circle Chart for physical sales. The title track “Killer joy” entered 13th place on the Billboard LyricFind Global Chart (January 17), and the music video continues to rank regularly at the top of the popular music video charts on YouTube Korea, confirming the group’s global influence.
Finally, CNBLUE will perform its new tracks live during their solo concert in Seoul “2026 CNBLUE LIVE ‘3LOGY’”, scheduled for January 17 and 18.
