Artwork
There are several different versions of the album cover.[1][6][7] It is very likely that most of them (if not, all) were taken at a Chinese studio by photographer Kim Joong-nam, who previously worked on the cover for Polaris.[2] What they have in common is that they feature Kangta baring his muscular trunk while wearing white hooded attire, a silver rope necklace, and gloves. In the original version, a temporary tattoo is visible on his upper left arm.[8] He also wore a hat for the alternate version depicted above.
