Doesn't surprise me, his PR team did a stellar job with the teasers, he looks spectacular, and the track itself is...interesting, but the MV which accompanies it is totally nuts, very watchable.

.

It's an absolutely stonking debut, congratulations to Taeyong and all his team who made it possible!
