The official video for 'This Is The End' is up on TAEMIN's own channel, posted at 00:30 KST on August 11, 2026 and running 2 minutes and 13 seconds. Where the counters stand at the time of writing: 444,970 views, 30,089 likes and 1,866 comments. Its description names 'PHASE 1 : Soft Violence', carries a Pre-Order and Save link, and lists his Instagram, X and TikTok.
Eight minutes after the video, at 00:38 KST the same night, the channel posted a 47-second Highlight, which has 23,654 views, 4,735 likes and 192 comments. Then came a gap of two days before the next post in the run.
That next post is where the date turned up. At 20:30 KST on August 13, TAEMIN's channel posted a one-minute clip called 'This Is The End' - Sketch, and its description reads 2026. 08. 31. 6PM (KST) beside the same Pre-Order and Save link and the same name, 'PHASE 1 : Soft Violence'. The Sketch has 18,012 views, 3,736 likes and 177 comments.
So the date sits on the smallest of the three posts rather than on the video that carries the name. Anyone who read the video's description on the night it went up came away with a title, a link and no day to put in a calendar. It took two days and a one-minute clip for the rest of it to arrive.
