TOMORROW X TOGETHER, or TXT, unveiled a teaser for their forthcoming single, “Chasing That Feeling,” on October 11. It’s the title track of their new album, The Name Chapter: FREEFALL.
TXT (투모로우바이투게더) ‘Chasing That Feeling’ Official Teaser
A fresh start
The teaser begins with members Yeonjun, Soobin, Hueningkai, Beomgyu, and Taehyun exchanging intense glances in what seems to be an underground tunnel. This is followed by scenes of Yeonjun hitching a ride on the back of a yellow taxi and Taehyun boldly standing atop a traffic light. As the lively pop tune starts, the group starts to dance. The teaser fades to black with the group singing the song. It ends with a reminder that the video will drop on October 13.
“Chasing That Feeling” comes after TXT‘s recent single, “Back for More (feat. Anitta).” The group premiered this track with a performance at the MTV Video Music Awards on September 12, followed by its official release on September 18.
Korean media outlets have described “Chasing That Feeling” as a song that signifies a fresh start in reality, leaving behind a past that, although sweet, lacked growth. They stated, “Unlike other youth anthems filled with aimless hopes, TOMORROW X TOGETHER honestly reveals the pain and anxiety of reality. By directly confronting the topic, it is expected that this song and the album it’s part of will be relatable to the youth.”

Kim Youngdae praised TXT
After attending a listening party for the album, music critic Kim Youngdae said, “‘FREEFALL’ feels complete and genuine, just as a full-length album should. Their move away from typical music genres was bold and sophisticated. They also introduced methods not commonly seen in the idol industry.”
He continued, “While opinions on its direction might vary, it’s a top-quality album with few flaws. The performance was so engaging it made me want to dance. The album is catchy and modern, but it’s not mundane. I need to give it another listen, but it might be my favorite TXT album since ‘FREEZE.’”
The Name Chapter: FREEFALL is the second installment in TXT‘s “Name” series, following The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION, which was released in January. This EP was TXT‘s highest-charting album, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. It remained on the chart for 19 weeks. “Sugar Rush Ride,” the single from this project, peaked at No. 44 on the Billboard Global 200. – K-Pop News Writer
