K-pop Group ‘Close Your Eyes’ Debuts with Poetic Passion
On July 2, rising K-pop group Close Your Eyes held a vibrant media showcase at Yes24 Live Hall in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, in celebration of their first mini album, ETERNALT. The event marked a symbolic first step into the K-pop industry for the group.
Performing the Title Track: ‘Every Poem and Novel Inside Me’
At the showcase, the group performed their debut title song, ‘내 안의 모든 시와 소설은’—translated as ‘Every Poem and Novel Inside Me’. The song blends emotional lyrics with a cinematic soundscape, reflecting a more artistic and introspective concept than typical debut tracks.
The performance captivated attendees with its blend of soft power and lyrical depth—an approach that sets the group apart from typical high-energy debuts.
A Unique Artistic Identity
Close Your Eyes appears to be carving a niche in the industry with a concept focused on poetic storytelling and emotional resonance. Rather than following trendy beats or catchy hooks, their music aims to connect through raw feeling and narrative.
“We wanted to express that everyone holds a story deep inside them,” said a member during the showcase. “Our music tells those stories.”
What’s Next for Close Your Eyes?
As fans and industry watchers turn their attention to the fresh-faced group, there’s growing anticipation around how they’ll evolve musically. With their thoughtful debut and emotionally-charged concept, Close Your Eyes could be one of this year’s breakout acts in K-pop.
One performance, one showcase, and already a wave of buzz—Close Your Eyes might just be the band to watch next.
