U R Man[2] is South Korean boy band SS501's fifth Korean mini-album and the unofficial debut album of Double S 301, (credited then as SS501 Special Project Group.) It released on November 21, 2008 by DSP Media and published by MNET media.[1] It is the only SS501 album not to feature members Park Jung-min and Kim Hyun-joong.
With Kim Hyun-joong busy filming with Boys Over Flowers,[3] and Park Jung Min with his musical debut in Grease as "Danny Park",[4] the remaining three members formed 'SS501 Project Group' with Heo Young-saeng as the leader. They released a project album named U R Man in November 2008, with a high tempo dance track "U R Man",[2] which the three remaining SS501 members promoted by themselves, with the exception of some special performances that included all five band members. The project group also performed "U R Man" in episode four of Boys Over Flowers, where they appeared for a cameo performance.[3]
In addition with the title track, "U R Man", the album also includes the members' first solo songs: "Is It Love?", "Never Let You Go", and "I Am".[2]
In March 2009, SS501 released a limited edition album in Japan, which comes with four additional tracks not included in the Korea version.[5]
