On December 24, Seo Taiji unveiled his plans for a ninth album on his official home page.

He wrote:

"Merry Christmas Ho Ho Ho.  

I will do a simple update on my life today for those who are eagerly waiting for news about the ninth album.  Anyway, this is really late, but since settling in Korea, I have been productive with my music so I am almost done with it.  So I think that I can finally start recording early next year.  Although it would probably take until about the middle or later half of next year, I am planning to release the complete ninth album in an accident-free 2014.  Our fans are probably so exhausted because they are sick of waiting, but please wait a little longer."

He also relayed his New Year's greeting, wishing everyone to have a nice end to this year and lots of luck for the next.  Stay tuned for news about his upcoming album!
