Electric Shock is the second mini album by f(x). It was released on June 10, 2012 with the title song serving as the album's lead track. The album has sold 74,694 copies in South Korea in 2012, making it the 21 biggest-selling album of the year in the country.
The lyrics of the title track liken the feeling of falling in love to getting an electric shock.
The visuals of the album feature a bear, which according to design agency Red Dot should be considered a figurative presence of shock to the girls. The agency goes on explaining that "Eventually the 'Electric Shock' appears as a dangerous, yet an attractive target for the adolescents. The girls wearing the masks of animals symbolize their abilities to cope with horror."
A special version of the album was released in Taiwan on January 25, 2013. This version features the regular CD and a DVD with "Electric Shock" music video, footage from the album's photoshoot and a making-of of the title track's music video.
