Posters released ahead of Close Your Eyes' upcoming EP "Overexposed" [UNCORE]

Rookie boy band Close Your Eyes is set to release a new digital single, its agency Uncore said on Thursday.

The upcoming single, “Overexposed,” marks the band's first release in five months following its third mini-album, “Blackout” (2025).

“Overexposed” will be released at 6 p.m. on April 21, with “Pose” as its lead track.

Close Your Eyes unveiled four posters on Thursday. Each poster teases the EP and features a blurred silhouette collapsing amid a contrast of light and darkness, suggesting a crossing between reality and unreality.

A series of concept photos for the album will be released from Monday through Wednesday.

Close Your Eyes is a septet formed through JTBC’s K-pop survival show “Project 7” (2024) and consists of Minwook, Jingxiang, Yeojun, Sungmin, Seungho, Kenshin and Kyoungbae. With a unique "literary boys" concept, marked by emotive sounds, poetic titles and a soft aesthetic, it debuted on April 2, 2025, with the EP “Eternalt." The band held its first concert in Korea in January and launched a Japanese tour in February, with stops in Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka.
