Obsession is the second mini-album by South Korean boy band Boyfriend. It was released physically June 9, 2014.
In the beginning of May, members Hyunseong, Jeongmin, and Youngmin posted selcas on Twitter with captions hinting to an upcoming comeback. On May 19, 2014, Starship Entertainment uploaded a 30-second trailer to YouTube announcing Boyfriend's next comeback happening in June.[1]
Starting on May 25, 2014, the members opened up their own personal Twitter accounts one by one. Each member tweeted their own teaser images showing the concept for their next comeback.[2] A few days later, a music video trailer was revealed and showed the boys’ new mature image.
