Close Your Eyes has successfully achieved a triple crown on music broadcasts.
Close Your Eyes (Jeon Min-wook, Ma Jin-xiang, Jang Yeo-jun, Kim Seong-min, Song Seung-ho, Ken Shin, Seo Kyung-bae) won the first-place trophy with their title track from the second mini album "Snowy Summer" on KBS2's "Music Bank" broadcast on the afternoon of the 18th.
Earlier, Close Your Eyes captured first place consecutively on SBS M's "The Show" on the 15th and MBC M's "Show! Champion" on the 16th, just six days after their comeback, garnering significant attention from global fans.
Having achieved a double crown on music broadcasts with their debut song "All the Poems and Novels Inside Me" by reaching first place on "The Show" and "Music Bank" in April, they have successfully proven their unmatched popularity as a global "hot rookie" with their first comeback achieving the triple crown.
Immediately after the award, Close Your Eyes said, "We are grateful to everyone who helped create the stage, including our agency family. We truly believe that receiving awards like this every time we release an album is more than we deserve. We understand it as encouragement to work harder and will do our best to become a singer worthy of first place."
Close Your Eyes' second mini album "Snowy Summer," released on the 9th, recorded sales of over 200,000 copies on the day of release alone, following their previous work's 300,000 copies sold. Additionally, it topped the real-time and daily physical album charts of Hanteo Chart on the day of release, ranked 2nd (Poca version) and 5th (general version) on the Circle Chart retail album chart, and entered the top 10 of iTunes' Top K-pop album chart in five overseas countries, showcasing their presence in both domestic and international charts.
The title track "Snowy Summer" is a warm pop R&B song with a house feel that playfully unfolds delightful imagination through the contrasting images of "summer" and "snow." The music video, containing a witty story of Close Your Eyes as ghosts, has also surpassed 22.8 million views on YouTube, receiving immense love.
Close Your Eyes will continue active promotions with their new song "Snowy Summer."
