Blooming Period is the fifth extended play by South Korean boy band Block B, released on April 11, 2016 by Seven Seasons, almost two years since their last Korean album, H.E.R. The album contains two singles, "몇 년 후에 (A Few Years Later)", which was pre-released on March 28, 2016; and "Toy", which was released with the EP.

Background and release

The group announced the release of their fifth mini album in the first week of March in 2016 with plans of releasing its lead single ahead of the album.[1] "몇 년 후에 (A Few Years Later)" was released digitally on March 28 and is described as 'neo soul genre music'. It was also noted to be different from the group's previous releases, bringing out their more emotional side musically, also showing it through their acting in the song's music video which was released on the same day.[2][3]

Produced by member Zico and Poptime, Blooming Period was eventually released on April 11, 2016 with another single, "Toy", which also had its music video released on the same day.[4]

Composition

Zico and Poptime composed the first three tracks, while "Walkin' In The Rain" was composed by Park Kyung & Score Megatone, and "빙글빙글 (Bingle Bingle)" was written and composed by Dean. All the tracks, including both singles, were penned by Zico with the exception of "빙글빙글 (Bingle Bingle)". "몇 년 후에 (A Few Years Later)" and "Walkin' In The Rain"'s lyrics' were written with Park Kyung.[4]

Promotion

Block B started promotions on music programs on Music Bank on April 15, where they performed "A Few Years Later" and "Toy".[5] The group also appeared on You Hee-yeol's Sketchbook on the same day and performed the two singles from the album, along with their other songs.[6]
