The 6-member idol group VIXX revealed a shocking half-nude photo shoot.

Today, VIXX revealed the main image of their upcoming first mini album "hyde" through their agency's website and Twtiter.

They had revealed a vampire image in January through their single "I'm Ready To Get Hurt," but this time they went for the "Jekyll and hyde" theme.

In the picture, VIXX members are in a mysterious forest background, showing off their muscular bodies

But none of the members are wearing a shirt, arousing controversies of if this was really necessary for an idol group photo shoot.

Internet users who saw this commented, "It looks like a scene from a fantasy movie," "This reminds me of Shinhwa," "Too revealing," and "I don't know if this was really necessary."

VIXX's agency Jellyfish Entertainment said, "This is only one image in order to show a different image for this album; it's far from sensationalism."

VIXX will be releasing their single album on May 20.
