South Korean boy band Pentagon released its new Japanese digital single "Shh" on Wednesday, marking their first release of the year in Japan. The bright and rhythmic track was written and produced by member Kino, and is the perfect addition to the upcoming summer season.
The title of the track in Japanese refers to a "poem," which aptly describes the nature of the song's lyrics. The members of Pentagon collaborated on writing poem-like lyrics that depict a conversation between two lovers.
Pentagon, which debuted under Cube Entertainment in 2016 with its first EP "Pentagon," has been a mainstay in the K-pop scene with a total of 12 EPs and one full-length album in Korea, and five EPs in Japan. Their last Korean release was "In:vite U" in January 2022.
