The group Close Your Eyes captivated fans with a horror content that coexists with thrill and romance.
Close Your Eyes (Jeon Min-wook, Ma Jingxiang, Jang Yeo-jun, Kim Seong-min, Song Seung-ho, Kenshin, Seo Kyung-bae) released the spinoff content 'Music Camp - Romantic Horror Meeting' on their YouTube channel 'GOGOSING' on the 18th.
'Romantic Horror Meeting' is a spinoff of 'Music Camp Listening Room,' which received significant response earlier, and is a talk-form horror content where members of Close Your Eyes recount bizarre experiences in a realistic way. The setup coincides perfectly with the theme of Close Your Eyes' recently released second mini-album 'Snowy Summer,' attracting a strong reaction from viewers immediately after its release.
In the released video, the members shared strange anecdotes they experienced while preparing for the 'Snowy Summer' activities. One story, where they witnessed an unidentified woman on a railing during the choreographed 'Paint Candy' performance video shoot, elicited chills with the confession, "If it were a real ghost, could it not be that?"
In the continuation of the main episode, incredible stories emerged, including one about a student who dreamed of becoming an idol encountering a practice ghost and another who met a thief instead of a ghost. Some members noted, "I hope we have a kind ghost in our practice room," hoping for a 'worker-friendly ghost' that ensures they can leave work on time, eliciting laughter.
Notably, member Jeon Min-wook heightened the tension with his lifelike acting that resembled real situations, while Ma Jingxiang kept looking back throughout the talk, amplifying the sense of fear. As Kenshin recounted the story of an 'unidentified sound' heard in the practice room bathroom, the lights turned off, and a caller ID restricted phone rang, instantly filling the scene with tension. The members added fun with immersive reactions, hiding under desks and startling. At the end of the video, after Close Your Eyes exited, a photo captured an unidentified person, leaving a chilling aftereffect.
Immediately after the release, fans reacted enthusiastically, saying, "The real Snowy Summer = chilling summer," "Close Your Eyes can do both acting and talking, I will definitely watch the next content," and "The horror meeting of Close Your Eyes is more real than ghosts."
Meanwhile, Close Your Eyes continues to remain active with 'Snowy Summer,' released on the 9th. The title track 'Snowy Summer' is a pop R&B genre song that joyfully blends the disparate images of 'summer' and 'snow,' and the music video surpassed 20 million views within a week of its release, receiving explosive responses. Additionally, they plan to showcase a different charm through performances with the double title track 'Paint Candy' while continuing their activities on music shows.
