On January 5, MBLAQ released their teaser of 'This is War' on their official YouTube channel, J.Tune Camp.[4] The video reveals the 5 members in their ensemble scene, and some small snippets of the full music video. The teaser ends with the members standing center stage with a string orchestra gathered on either side of them, shooting at the audience and finishes with a violent blood splatter that reveals their lead single's name, '전쟁이야 (This is War)'.[5] On the same day, the first concept photo was also released by J.Tune Camp. The directors jokingly stated that there was a particular member, Mir, who wanted to shave his hair bald, however they took fans' opinions in to consideration and only let the member go as far as a mohawk.

Broken is the sixth EP released by the South Korean boy groupMBLAQ. The album was released online on March 24, 2014 at 12PM (KST).[1] The album consists of 7 tracks, and Wheesung took part in the writing of the lyrics and composing for the title song Be a Man, whereby he gifted the song to MBLAQ. He expressed that 'MBLAQ is the only male group that I wanted to give a song to, so it was a pleasure to work with them on the album. I am thankful for MBLAQ for conveying the feelings that I wanted from this track'.
Concept[edit]
The concept shows the members' chic and strong 'masculine' mature image. Filter imitating broken glass overlaid by the members' images, which are included in the concept photos, were uploaded on the official MBLAQ's SNS and creates a rainbow set of colours. This is in contrast to the meaning of the album's name, Broken, whereby it shows how a heart can grow cold when broken, as portrayed by the members' angry and hard gazes.[2][3]
Background[edit]
On March 20 at 12AM (KST), MBLAQ released their teaser of 'Be a Man' on their official YouTube channel, J.Tune Camp.[4] It shows the sleek and sophisticated images of the members, as they wore well-tailored black and white suits together with clean-cut hair, appearing mysterious with their sharp gaze. It further dramatizes the video through the added fog and shadow effects.[5]
