SHINee member ONEW will once again demonstrate his wide musical spectrum.

ONEW will release the single album "Misunderstanding" at 6 p.m. on the 20th through various music streaming platforms.

"Misunderstanding" is a single album released approximately seven months after ONEW's fifth mini-album, "TOUGH LOVE," which was released in March. Just as people perceive and experience the same things differently, the album captures emotions arising from differences in interpretation, expressing them through various genres and moods to fully reflect ONEW's diverse musical colors.

In particular, ONEW will prove his expanded musical spectrum by featuring triple title tracks. The main title track, "Misunderstanding," was completed through direct communication with top-tier overseas songwriters, and ONEW is also credited for lyrics and composition.

The song tells a story of attributing meaning to the other person's minor actions, eventually leading to certainty at the boundary between reality and imagination. It is characterized by harmoniously combining the intense yet dynamic rhythm unique to UK garage over a smooth flow, expressing the emotional line of the track in a more three-dimensional way.

The music video released along with the audio features ONEW entering a set location and welcoming a perfect day in a warm atmosphere. ONEW's expression is filled with happiness as he spends what appears to be his best day ever. However, while watching the edited version, ONEW finally faces the truth. The witty and clever development unique to ONEW is expected to double the listening pleasure.

In addition, "Misunderstanding" includes "Mind Games," performed with YUJU, and "Tic Tac Toe," performed with ZICO. Prior to the release of the single album, ONEW revealed his musical confidence by pre-releasing two title tracks. The collaborations with artists of distinct charms received a great response from listeners both domestically and internationally. As proof of this, "Tic Tac Toe" went straight to number one on the Bugs real-time chart on its release day and topped the Circle Chart digital chart and download chart for the 41st week of 2026 (October 4-10). Furthermore, ONEW lifted a first-place trophy on a music show without appearing in person, showcasing his powerful streaming capabilities.

In this way, ONEW directly participated in the production of all tracks included in the single album, demonstrating his musical capabilities once again. Having shown his potential as a producer beyond just an artist through his previous fifth mini-album, "TOUGH LOVE," ONEW has been presenting music imbued with his own unique color with every comeback, drawing attention to his future activities.

Meanwhile, ONEW's single album "Misunderstanding" will be released at 6 p.m. on the 20th through various music streaming platforms. Following this, ONEW will meet fans by holding a solo concert titled "2026 ONEW CONCERT 'ONEW THE LIVE : Q' IN SEOUL" at the Olympic Hall in Seoul Olympic Park from October 30 to November 1.
