"One More Chance" (Korean: 비처럼 가지 마요; RR: Bicheoleom gaji mayo, "Don't Go Like the Rain") is a single released by the South Korean boy band Super Junior on October 30, 2017, for their studio album, Play. This single marked the group's return from their two-year hiatus due to most of its members were undergoing their mandatory military service, and the first Super Junior single released under their exclusive label, Label SJ.

Background and release

The single was recorded with only seven members present — Leeteuk, Heechul, Yesung, Donghae, Shindong, Eunhyuk, and Siwon.[1] Ryeowook and Kyuhyun were undergoing their mandatory military service. Sungmin did not join the comeback after his discharge from the military in 2016 due to the backlash from the fans following his sudden marriage in 2014.[2] Kangin was in hiatus after being caught drunk driving in 2016.[3]

Following the discharge of Eunhyuk, Donghae, and Siwon in the middle of 2017, Sports Dong-a repported that the group would make a comeback at the 12th anniversary of the group on November 6, 2017.[4] However, Label SJ denied the rumour, saying that although the band was preparing for an album, its release date has not been decided.[5]

Label SJ announced the album title as Play on October 18.[6] 12 days later on October 30, "One More Chance" was released as a pre-release single ahead of the album release on November 6.[7]

Composition

The single was written by Donghae during his mandatory military service and he said he wasn't planning for the song to be a title track.[8]

The song is classified as a pop rock ballad that features a subtle build to guide the song's melodic vocals. Member Eunhyuk was involved in writing the rap lyrics. He described the song as a retrospective track that evokes the maturity of Super Junior who were already in their second decade in the K-pop industry.[9]

Music video

The teaser clip for the music video was released on social media two hours before the full music video release.[10]

Live performance

The song was performed live for the first time on Mnet's M Countdown on November 9. Followed by a performance on Inkigayo on November 12. The song was then featured as a setlist for their concert, Super Show 7 and .[11] [12]
