    Released: December 26, 2018

New Chapter #2: The Truth of Love is a Korean extended play record by the South Korean pop duo TVXQ. It was released on December 26, 2018 through SM Entertainment as a special commemorative album for the duo's fifteenth debut anniversary. The Truth of Love is the sequel to the duo's eighth studio album New Chapter #1: The Chance of Love, which was released on March 28, 2018.

The Truth of Love is dance-pop album with elements of R&B and electropop. Its lead single "Truth" is an R&B pop song infused with jazz.[1] Lyrically, the record is a reflection of oneself recovering from the pain of separation.

The record debuted at number two on the Gaon Albums Chart in South Korea, moving 93,238 units.[2] In Japan, The Truth of Love debuted at number 12 on the Oricon Albums Chart.[3]

Background

On November 28, SM Entertainment announced that TVXQ would hold a fan meeting at the Tiger Dome on December 26 to commemorate the duo's fifteenth anniversary, titled TVXQ! Special Day: The Truth of Love. The new record was also announced.[4] The Truth of Love was released as a special album for TVXQ's fifteenth debut anniversary in South Korea, which fell on December 26, 2018.[5]

The Truth of Love's lead single "Truth" was announced on December 19, 2018.[5] The song, written and produced by Thomas Troelsen who also wrote TVXQ's 2008 K-Pop hit "Mirotic," is a jazzy R&B pop song with harmonizing vocals by Yunho and Changmin.[6] The accompanying music video showcased a "symmetrical" dance that is reminiscent of a dance battle.[6] The Truth of Love comprises seven tracks, two which are solos performed by U-Know Yunho and Max Changmin. Yunho's solo "City Lights" features a rap written and performed by Taeyong of NCT. Changmin wrote the lyrics to two tracks – "Jelly Love" and his solo, "Beautiful Stranger." The album's last track "Circle" is also the name of TVXQ's comeback concert, the Circle #welcome Tour, which debuted in Seoul on May 5, 2018.

Promotion and marketing for the album first came in a series of social media updates and releases. TVXQ kickstarted the campaign with a surprise album cover drop on December 19, 2018. On December 20, two teaser images of Changmin were unveiled on social media, followed by the release of a short clip ("1st Clue by MAX") on YouTube.[7] A second series of teaser images and a video ("2nd clue by U-KNOW") featuring Yunho was released on December 21.[8] On December 22, SM Entertainment unveiled a group teaser ("3rd clue by TVXQ!") and a new album cover.[9]

A teaser for the music video of the lead single "Truth" was dropped on December 24, followed with a third album cover. The final teaser for "Truth" aired on Christmas Day, along with several other teaser images. The official music video dropped on December 26 at 6pm KST, along with the album's digital release.

The physical CD album dropped the following day, in three versions: white, pink, and red. Each version is attached with a 168-page booklet, a poster, and a postcard.
