    Released: May 18, 2009

Romeo is the second EP of South Korean boy group Shinee, released on May 25, 2009 in South Korea. The lead single "Juliette" is a remake of "Deal with It" by Jay Sean and Corbin Bleu.[1][2][3] The album was originally scheduled for release on May 21, and was delayed due to Onew damaging his teeth.[1][4] The EP was released in Japan on July 29, 2009, with an alternative cover and a bonus DVD featuring the music video for "Juliette". The release peaked at #39 on the weekly Oricon chart, charting for three weeks.[5]

The Korean music video included f(x)'s Krystal as the female lead, while the song's Japanese music video featured actress Go Ara.

Singles

"Juliette" is a remake of Corbin Bleu's "Deal with It",[6] which itself was a cover version of Jay Sean's "Deal with It". The song was the second single from Corbin Bleu's first album, Another Side, and featured rapping by Jay Sean (who wrote the original track). Executives at SM Entertainment bought the rights to the song from Hollywood Records.[citation needed] The song was slightly re-arranged and composed by Cutfather and Lee Soo-Man. As the original song's lyrics were not purchased, the Korean lyrics were penned by SHINee members, Jonghyun and Minho.

A Japanese version of "Juliette" was released on August 29, 2011 as Shinee's second Japanese single with the original Japanese song "Kiss Kiss Kiss" as a B-side.[7]
