SHINee's Onew is finally back with a new solo album!

On April 11, Onew dropped his second mini-album DICE and the music video for the title track with the same name. The album is Onew's first comeback as a solo artist since the release of his debut EP Voice in December 2018.

The three-minute music video shows Onew falling in love with a girl and betting everything he has even if he might lose just to have this girl.

DICE consists of six tracks, including "Sunshine," "On The Way," "Love Phobia," "Yeowoobi," and "In The Whale."

According to Kpop Herald, Onew shared that his favorite song on his album is "On The Way," and his style is "In The Whale." When asked what DICE is all about in one word, he said "Diversity. I wanted to show that Onew is an artist who not only sings gentle ballads and OST tracks but other new things and can also perform."

"As this the 1st solo I'm promoting, I thought I should increase the spectrum. When thought of #Onew, instead of just someone who sings calm songs in ballads or OSTs, I wanna show that I could challenge something new & perform too" pic.twitter.com/QvzxMhKfzv

My opinion stays the same:

the MV is "beautifully eerie", it is so colorful and fun but when we look closely, there are a lot of mysterious & horror elements which is... amazing.

I LOVE THIS A LOT.#SHINee #ONEW #모든걸걸어_온유_다이스 #DICE_ONEW pic.twitter.com/v6IFVvW7bc
