BOYNEXTDOOR heated up comeback buzz with a music video teaser for the new song "Hollywood Action".
BOYNEXTDOOR (Seongho, Liu, Myung Jae-hyeon, Taesan, I-han, Unhak) on the 17th at 10 p.m. released a music video teaser for the title track "Hollywood Action" from mini album 5 "The Action" on HYBE Labels' YouTube channel.
This video is set mainly on a fictional movie set. The six members appear on a main street, dancing freely and drawing attention. The intro lists the members' names in captions as if introducing roles, and the cinematic staging that unfolds like a movie is fresh. The polished atmosphere contrasts with the members' free-spirited charm, which stands out.
The "Hollywood Action" music video was filmed in Chicago, United States. BOYNEXTDOOR for the first time since the music videos for the triple title tracks of their debut single "WHO!"—"I Might Go Crazy", "One and Only", and "Serenade"—shot all scenes in the U.S. in a long while. Chicago in particular ties in with their new album promotion. The six members took on roles as members of the film production crew "TEAM THE ACTION" and promoted the setting that they aim to submit to the Chicago Film Festival. The music video finally connects with the story of "TEAM THE ACTION" entering Chicago, drawing attention.
The striking melody of "Hollywood Action" also captivates the ear. The swing rhythm, lively brass sounds and the hooky lyric "Everybody Hollywood action" amplify the song's addictiveness. The flashy choreography also heightens anticipation for the full-performance.
BOYNEXTDOOR will release mini album 5 "The Action" on Oct. 20 at 6 p.m. They will hold a comeback showcase at 8 p.m. the release day at KBS Arena in Gangseo District, Seoul, and premiere the new song stage. The title track "Hollywood Action" is a song that conveys confidence like a Hollywood star and has a bold, spirited charm. Along with Myung Jae-hyeon, Taesan and Unhak, who have consistently participated in songwriting since debut, I-han is also credited, showing the team's enhanced production capability.
Meanwhile, intense interest in BOYNEXTDOOR ahead of their comeback continues. Their official YouTube channel reached 2 million subscribers on Oct. 15. The channel has been hugely popular, becoming the fastest among boy groups that debuted at the same time to surpass 1 billion cumulative views.
