The big blow to this upcoming release was on the view of Christianity amongst its fans. To clarify such issue, SM Entertainment has released a statement about the true meaning of LUCIFER.
Meanwhile, in an effort to stop the confusion – fans have also explained how the word ‘LUCIFER’ plays in the lyrics and representation of the song.
On the 16th, Sm Entertainment released Idol group SHINee’s image of their 2nd album ‘Lucifer’, releasing SHINee’s image at 10PM on that day required huge amount of technology/skills, to display the members’ new look.
"Members using their eye expression to show their main song ‘Lucifer’, in Christianity, Lucifer means the falling angel of the devil. SHINee with a refreshing image in the past activities, showed a big transformation and a feeling of approaching in their 2nd album.
