Their dance song “TRICK” will be about Girls’ Generation as magicians, and “OSCAR” will show off the members strong vocals admist a powerful, dark sound.  Along with “Top Secret”, a track that carries a retro sound sure to leave an impression, the album will contain a total of 12 songs, showing off Girls’ Generation’s various charms.

 

The album will come in a tin case, and includes ten postcards along with a booklet.  Also, it comes with a group poster and an individual poster of a random member.
