The Calm Before ‘The Action’
BOYNEXTDOOR is warming up for their big comeback, and they’re bringing fans along for the ride—literally behind the scenes. On July 1, the group revealed a new batch of concept photos and a teaser video for their upcoming 5th mini album ‘The Action’, and it’s all about that pre-performance downtime.
Relaxed, Real, and Ridiculously Adorable
The teaser, nicknamed the ‘Pause version’, feels like sneaking a peek into the group’s waiting room. Liu’s cheeky moment of pretending to film Jaehyun while actually filming himself is peak idol mischief, and fans are here for it. Meanwhile, Taesan and Ihan casually mirror each other like twins separated at birth, serving synchronized charm that’s hard to ignore.
Sonho and Woonhak bring the sunshine, bouncing around with carefree smiles after wrapping up their shoot. Whether they’re goofing off or just vibing with each other, these little slice-of-life moments make the group feel more relatable than ever.
From Backstage to Magazine Chic
In the concept photos, we see scenes that feel ripped straight from a youth movie set—or maybe a high-fashion editorial. Liu and Jaehyun munch on snacks while getting their makeup done, casually picking outfits with playful expressions. The final group shots? Impossibly polished. Total fashion magazine material.
Movie Magic Meets K-pop
This comeback isn’t just about visuals. BOYNEXTDOOR is going full cinematic with a concept centered on filmmaking. Each member plays a part in a fictional movie crew called ‘TEAM THE ACTION’, and it’s no coincidence their album shares the same title. From storyboard-like photo shoots to video teasers, the group is blurring lines between K-pop and indie cinema.
Set to drop on July 20 at 6 PM KST, ‘The Action’ promises more than just music—it’s a creative experience that highlights the group’s growth and storytelling flair.
Ready for Action?
Whether you’ve followed BOYNEXTDOOR from debut or you’re a curious newbie, this comeback is shaping up to be a well-directed blockbuster. Are you ready to hit pause and play when ‘The Action’ finally premieres?
