Monsta X 'The Dreaming': Release date, music video and all about 2nd English album
Fans are officially ready for Monsta X’s second English album ‘The Dreaming’. Their first album ‘All About Luv’, which was released as a Valentine’s gift for fans in 2020, was an instant success as the tracks went viral while the album was in the top 5 of Billboard 200. They also collaborated with the likes of French Montana, Pitbull and Will.I.Am while the album was also ranked at #7 by Rolling Stone for their year-end chart of 2020. They also got a career-high win with 5 music show wins for their latest K-pop comeback ‘Rush Hour’.
But 2021 has been the busiest year for Monsta X yet. They had two K-pop comebacks, a Japanese release, and now are ready to drop a movie and a world tour along with their sophomore English album. While fans are getting ready for Monsta X to drop ‘The Dreaming’, the K-pop group will be releasing their first film ‘Monsta X: The Dreaming’, which chronicles their music journey and will be released in theaters worldwide. Additionally, while they have been invited for the third time at iHeart Radio’s Jingle Ball tour in USA, they have also announced their own world tour which will begin in New York on January 29, 2022.

Concept
Monsta X first released two sets of concept photos for the pre-released single ‘One Day’ where the boys are dressed in sombre black outfits. It also happened to be the last group concept photo with Shownu, who is now in the military. The remaining 5 members in the next teaser photo are seen wearing colorful suits followed by a retro teaser.
Music video teaser
Monsta X first dropped a heartbreaking music video for ‘One Day’ in September. And now, on December 4, they released a teaser for the music video of ‘You Problem’. They hint at a fun music video as they go back to the 80s where they work part-timer at a bowling alley in the day and rockstars at night in glammed up suits.
