In a press conference held prior to the mini-album drop, ENHYPEN shared that despite being nervous for their first comeback, the group are excited to share their entrancing new record with their fans. 

BORDER: CARNIVAL features six tracks, including their title song 'Drunk-Dazed' that perfectly encapsulates the whole concept of their new record, according to ENHYPEN. 

The group describe it to be a pop-rock track that showcases the excitement and hypnotic nature of being in an elaborate carnival, which symbolises the "new world" they are experiencing as idols.

'Drunk-Dazed' was dropped alongside a music video that sees the group navigating through a glittering party. 

Other tracks on the album include 'Intro: Invitation', 'FEVER', 'Not For Sale', '별안간 (Mixed Up)', and 'Outro: The Wormhole' that feature a range of musical styles and themes surrounding youth.
