On November 23, 2020, Baek Yerin officially announced that she would release her second album Tellusboutyourself on December 10.[2] The album contains 14 songs, including the title songs "0415" and "Hate You".[3] The album attracted attention to Yerin's foretelling of a new musical transformation, showcasing a wider world of music from existing music and encompassing genres such as R&B, deep house, synth-pop, modern rock and dream pop.[4][5]
Billboard chose Tellusboutyourself as one of "The 10 Best K-pop Albums of 2020 (Critics' Picks)". Contributor Joshua Minsoo Kim wrote, "You can hear the sound of [t]ellusboutyourself from saying the title out loud: it’s casual, conversational, intimate. As always, Yerin Baek sings with a firm conviction that belies her graceful vocals, transforming the simplest of lyrics into immersive pools of emotion. The truths she relays can be hard to swallow, so she allows gauzy instrumentation to provide a welcoming atmosphere.".[7]
All tracks are written by Yerin Baek. All tracks are produced by Yerin Baek, Cloud, and Bang Min-hyuk. (Bang Min-hyuk didn't produce track 1, 9 and 12)[8][9]
