Created for global listeners everywhere, the Enhanced Album offers various content made exclusively for Spotify to better experience the group’s long-awaited five-track album, delivering a story of the boy who fell in love in the previous ‘The Chaos Chapter’ album series experiencing a breakup with his first love and going through complex emotions.
