Big Ocean is releasing their second mini-album 'UNDERWATER' to celebrate their first debut anniversary. The subtitle of 'UNDERWATER' is 'Embracing the Black Ocean', which contains the message that everyone has a deep and dark instinct beneath the surface. If they showed freshness and coolness in their first album 'Follow', this time they are trying to reverse the trend with a mature and seductive concept.
The main motif of the album is 'Mermaid'. It is a mythical creature that is half-human, half-fish and has difficulty setting foot on land. Although it is sad because it cannot let go of its longing for land, the mermaid who goes under the water is stronger and more attractive than anyone else. The mermaid's shining tail propels it faster than two feet, and with its hair and wavy hands, it can touch the waves and embrace all the waves. For a mermaid who has realized her own abilities, the sea is no longer a place of fear. It becomes a place of infinite possibilities where she can shine.
The four tracks depict Big Ocean's journey of realizing that he is a mermaid and awakening his instincts.
● 'SINKING' depicts 'sleep'. It sings of the sadness of trying to please the person you love but eventually drifting away.
● 'FADE OUT' is a song of 'enlightenment'. When you submerge in water, all sounds become muffled, but instead, you feel your own voice becoming clearer in the empty silence.
● 'ATTENTION' is the title song of the album and symbolizes 'instinct'. It is the stage where you regain your confidence after realizing that you are a 'mermaid'. It tempts you to enter the water where you are and get swept up in a whirlpool of emotions as your heart leads you.
● 'END OF TIME' is about regaining 'fate'. Dancing under the moonlight, they promise eternity.
If you listen to it in order, your heart will ache as if you are watching a melodrama, and you will applaud the mermaid who has turned black.
Hoping everyone will find their own Black Ocean in UNDERWATER.

Big Ocean(빅오션)이 데뷔 1주년을 맞아 두 번째 미니 앨범 'UNDERWATER(언더워터)'를 발매한다. 'UNDERWATER'의 부제는 'Embracing the Black Ocean'으로 누구에게나 수면 아래에 깊고 짙은 본능이 있다는 메시지를 담고 있다. 1집 'Follow'에서 풋풋함과 청량함을 보여주었다면, 이번엔 성숙하고 유혹적인 콘셉트로 반전을 꾀한다.
앨범의 메인 모티브는 '인어'이다. 반인반어(Half-Human, Half-Fish)로서 육지 어디에도 발 딛기 어려워하는 신화적 생명체이다. 육지에 대한 동경을 버리지 못해 슬픔에 잠기기도 하지만, 수면 아래로 내려간 인어는 누구보다도 강인하고 매력적이다. 인어의 빛나는 꼬리는 두 발 보다 빠르게 추진을 얻으며, 머리카락과 구불거리는 손으로는 물결을 매만지고 모든 파도를 껴안을 수 있다. 자신의 능력을 자각한 인어에게 바다는 더 이상 두려움의 공간이 아니다. 빛날 수 있는 무한한 가능성의 공간이 된다.
트랙 네 곡은 빅오션이 인어임을 인지하고 본능을 깨우는 여정을 그린다.
● 'SINKING'에서는 '침잠'을 그린다. 사랑하는 사람에게 맞추기 위해 애쓰지만 결국 멀어져 가는 슬픔을 노래한다.
● 'FADE OUT'은 '깨달음'의 곡이다. 물속에 잠기면서 모든 소리가 먹먹해지지만, 대신 텅 빈 고요 속에서 자신의 목소리만은 선명해짐을 느낀다.
● 'ATTENTION'은 앨범의 타이틀곡으로 '본능'을 상징한다. '인어'임을 자각한 뒤 자신감을 되찾은 단계이다. 마음이 이끄는 대로 자신이 있는 물속으로 들어와 감정의 소용돌이에 휩쓸려보자고 유혹한다.
● 'END OF TIME'은 '인연'을 되찾는 내용으로 이뤄진다. 달빛 아래에서 춤추며 영원을 약속한다.
순서대로 듣다 보면, 멜로 드라마를 보는 듯 가슴이 찡하다가 흑화 된 인어에 박수를 치게 된다.
모두가 UNDERWATER에서 자신만의 Black Ocean을 찾길 희망하며.
