Background
The Black Skirts described the album as "This is a love letter from the summer of 1999. And also a story of teenage anxiety, minor heartache, wet dreams of rock and roll encouraged by MTV, and happily wasted youth." He also released the short film Teen Troubles in Dirty Jersey with the release of the album.

Park Soojin of IZM reviewed the album as "Teen Troubles is an album armed with composition and melody suction power, but its expressive power put the brakes on it." The member of the selection committee for the Korean Music Awards Kwon Ikdo described the album as "a bombastic image of art that was burning at the forefront of rock revival."
