Overview
In late 2006, Korean media reported that U;Nee was hard at work on a brand new album, showing a snippet of the song 솔로판타지 (Sorrow Fantasy) and U;Nee rehearsing a dance to it.[1] The album was expected to be released some time in 2007. However, on January 21, it was reported that U;Nee had committed suicide due to a bout with depression. Synnara Music then reported that they would not release U;Nee's third album, as the news of her death was too unbearable. But from constant demand, they decided to release the album as a final gift from U;Nee to her fans, despite prior criticism from netizens. Within 3 days, the album received 5,000 pre-orders, and has sold 51,000 copies by March 1, 2007.[2] All the money made from the album was given to U;Nee's family.[3] The music style of the album is R&B influenced, but there is an electropop dance song ("Honey"), a rock song, which she raps and sings on ("U-Turn"), and a Christmas instrumental ("라스트 크리스마스 1397"). The title song, "Habit", was promoted as a tribute song for U;Nee, and a video in U;Nee's memory came along with it.
