Get Ready: Key’s New Album ‘Hunter’ Drops Soon!

SHINee’s Key announced through SM Entertainment on Monday that he’s set to make a solo comeback on August 11.

The singer teased fans with a creative mock noticeboard announcement, reminiscent of those found in apartment complexes and office buildings. The notice included a phone number through which Key will drop hints about his upcoming third album, “Hunter.”

Featuring 10 tracks, “Hunter” marks Key’s first solo venture since his third EP, “Pleasure Shop,” which hit the airwaves about a year ago.

This new album comes nearly three years after his last full-length release, “Gasoline.” That LP made waves internationally, topping iTunes Top Albums Charts in 24 regions, while his EP claimed the top spot in 21.

Rumors of Key’s comeback have been swirling in the media since early this month. His most recent group project was SHINee’s physical single “Poet | Artist,” released in May to commemorate the group’s impressive 17-year milestone in the industry.
