Time Slip (stylized as Time_Slip) is the ninth Korean-language studio album (eleventh overall) by South Korean boy band Super Junior, released on October 14, 2019, by SM Entertainment.[3] The album features nine members, namely Leeteuk, Heechul, Yesung, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook, and also marks the return of Kyuhyun after his mandatory military service.[4] On January 7, 2020 it was announced that the album would be re-released as a repackaged album, Timeless on January 28, 2020.[5]

Background and release

Super Junior is a South Korean boy band that had thirteen members at its peak.[6] At the release of their previous album, One More Time, the band has eleven members, with three of them being inactive; Kyuhyun due to military enlistment,[7] Kangin because of his hiatus,[8] and Sungmin, who voluntarily did not participate in group activities.[9]

In May 2019, Kyuhyun finished his mandatory military enlistment, thus finishing-off the enlistment period of the band members that started since 2010, when the first member, Kangin, enlisted.[10] [11] In July 2019, Super Junior became a ten members band as Kangin announced his departure from the group after three years hiatus.[12] As Sungmin continue to sit out of the group activity, Time Slip featured the remaining nine members of Super Junior.[13] However, on August 30, Label SJ, Super Junior's music label announced that Heechul will not be joining the band in music show promotions and the album's supporting tour, Super Show 8 due to health issue but he will participate in other promotions.[14]

Since the release of One More Time, some of the band members released their own albums; Ryeowook released a pop ballad mini album, Drunk on Love in January,[15] Donghae and Eunhyuk through the sub-unit Super Junior-D&E released a pop mini album, Danger in April,[16] Kyuhyun released a single album, The Day We Meet Again in May,[17] and Yesung released a mini album, Pink Magic in June 2019.[18] Super Junior started hinting on their comeback date by incorporating the number 999 in Super Junior-D&E's title track "Danger" and Yesung's "Pink Magic" music videos.[19] On September 3, Super Junior posted cryptic concept images with the text "SUPER JUNIOR COMEBACK 999 : 00 : 00" on their social media accounts and website, that countdown to October 14, 2019 and announced it as their comeback date for their ninth album.[20] Nine cryptic teaser images were released, one for each band member, who posed with different props while hiding their faces from camera.[21]

The first single and its music video, "Show", was released on September 10, 2019. The single is a remake of Kim Won-jun's song with the same title that was released in 1996.[22] The music video featured clips from the band's previous tour, Super Show 7 and its encore, Super Show 7S.[23] On September 17, the music video for "Somebody New" was released. The song is described as a "medium tempo song that conveyed hopeful message to those who are facing difficulties".[24] The music video features clips of the daily life of the band members and scenes in the practice room where they practice their choreography for the new album.[25] The behind the scene of the music video was broadcast through episode 54 of SJ Returns Season 3, which was aired on October 20, 2019.

On September 27, 2019 the lyric video for the track "The Crown" was released.[26] The song described the band's 15 years history and featured heavy bass and synth sound.[27] The track list for Time Slip was released on September 30, revealing that the album will contain ten tracks altogether, with "Super Clap" as its lead single.[28] It was also revealed that the album will be released in ten versions; nine versions for each band members and a group version.[29] On October 4, they released the fourth music video of the album, "I Think I", which was co-written by band member, Eunhyuk. The song is a fusion of latin soul and pop R&B genre, a nod to their previous album, which is a latin pop EP; One More Time.[30] [31]

The album was released on October 14, 2019. However, due to the death of label-mate, Sulli, on the same day, the release of "Super Clap" music video was delayed.[32] It was subsequently released on October 18.[33]

On October 25, Label SJ announced the release of the special version of the album, Timeline. The special version was released on November 6 in celebration of their 14th debut anniversary.[34]
