'', was released by SM Entertainment in 2002 in South Korea. After expiration of their contract with SM Entertainment in 2002, Shinhwa moved to Good EMG. Following discussions and compromises regarding the group's right to continued use of their name and to perform the music and choreography created while at SM, Shinhwa released their first album under Good EMG, titled '' Winter Story'', in late 2003. ''Winter Story'' was the first of two albums and two EPs Shinhwa would eventually release with "Winter Story" in the titles. The albums are considered "special releases" and are usually not counted when assigning ordinals to Shinhwa's studio album releases in the media and by the group itself. Thus, it was Shinhwa's next album release, '' Brand New'' in 2004, that was publicized as their seventh album, though technically it was their eighth. The success of ''Brand New'' brought the group two prestigious ''daesang'' (grand prize) awards for the year 2004, a first for the group. Shinhwa went on to release a total of eight albums and EPs under Good EMG, plus thirteen promotional singles. In 2006, they contracted with

The single sold 15,052 copies in its debut month (17,316 total sales through October minus 2,264 sales in October). * F These songs, originally titled in Korean (or Japanese), have no official English titles.
