enjoyed together.

Seo Taiji had released a few live albums like 'Live & Techno
Mix'(92), 'Last Festival'(93) and 'Opening the Another
Sky'(95). However this album has another meaning that it
introduces songs from 'Seo Taiji & Boys' first album to his 6th
album "Ultramania" as hardcore pimprock version.

Telling his recent news by his own voice at the 0811 phone-
newsletter, he said, "On my birthday, I thank most of all
to my parents, and then thank to my fans who let me know
what I was born for and what I am living for". He said
that the live concert to air on TV will be mainly the
encore concert that brought he and his fans together and
made them have a wonderful time.

Also he said, "I love my age 30 because it has some nuance
of full while 29 felt lacking somthing" and "let's take
care and I'm looking forward to the day when we'll meet
again", saying good-bye.

According to a staff of Yanggoon Entertainment, Seo Taiji
will leave Korea for the U.S. immediately he finishes
producing the live album and editing the 'Goodbye Special'
to air on the MBC on March 4, and it is still under
discussion whether the concert video and DVD wil be
released or not.
