'Good Boy Gone Bad' from TXT's concept pictures appeares everywhere
On April 23, 2022, BIGHIT MUSIC took to the group’s official social media accounts to post new concept pictures of Tomorrow X Together’s MESS version of the upcoming album minisode 2: Thursday’s Child. Styled in chic clothing, the boys flaunted a deep and dark side which hasn’t been seen before by the group.
Each member was clad in different apparel ranging from denim shirts, black leather jackets, jeans, and boots. For accessories, the boys wore chain necklaces and hip-hop hats.
The backdrop of the concept pictures consisted of the members standing in a dark and messy alleyway with graffiti and posters pasted on the walls and poles.
However, fans of the group, known as MOAs, were excited to see similar stickers pasted in the background of nearly all the concept pictures. They stated that the phrase 'Good Boy Gone Bad' in the MESS concept pictures appeared everywhere inclusive of other wordings such as 'KISS ME', 'KILL ME', 'BROKEN HEART', and 'TEAR'.
Fan reactions
Many fans are focused on deciphering the text on the stickers, and although there are several possible title names for the songs, fans are trying their best to guess which names will match the most when the official list is released.
Fans are convinced that TXT has “gone bad” for the upcoming comeback. MOAs are speculating that even if it isn’t the exact name of one of the group’s new songs, “Good Boy Gone Bad” at least has to appear as a concept for this new era.
Meanwhile, TXT’s upcoming album minisode 2: Thursday’s Child is set to drop on May 9, 2022. The album comes nine months after the group’s last release, The Chaos Chapter: Fight or Escape, which is a repackaged version of their sophomore album, The Chaos Chapter: Freeze.
