WOODZ Drops Visualizer for New Song ‘Smashing Concrete’

EPEX is back with new music!

On July 28, EPEX made a comeback with their 3rd album, ‘Youth Chapter 3: ROMANTIC YOUTH’, and dropped the MV for ‘눈물나게 고마워 (Grateful to Tears)’. The previous album, ‘Youth Chapter 2: YOUTH DEFICIENCY’, released in November 2024, depicted the complex emotional voids that arise in the youth and the journey to fulfill those voids through choices made in each moment. However, as the final part of their Youth trilogy, ‘Youth Chapter 3: ROMANTIC YOUTH’, focuses on embracing one’s flaws and moments of weakness while welcoming a new day with renewed hope. Through this album, EPEX offers comfort and inspiration, urging fans and listeners to find themselves and their identity as they discover love and growth in life.

Since this album is the last chapter of the Youth trilogy, I worked on it with even more affection. In the first two chapters of the trilogy, we discussed the reality, various concerns, and the deficiency of youth. In the final album of the series, we’re fully accepting all those elements and stepping forward to the next chapter. We hope you look forward to what EPEX will present after Youth Chapter 3: ROMANTIC YOUTH, and please listen to it a lot, as it is filled with great songs.

— MU, member of EPEX

The album consists of eight tracks, led by the title track ‘눈물나게 고마워 (Grateful to Tears)’, a sentimental pop song with an acoustic sound and rock elements that portrays a mature acceptance of goodbye. Other songs on the album include ‘아무 일도 없었다 (Waffle)’, a ratchet-genre track expressing determination without being swayed by others, and ‘낭만 터지는 (Bang)’, a hybrid rock track capturing the passionate pursuit of a challenge, something only possible in youth.

The pre-released track ‘Picasso’ embodies a desire to break boundaries and create something new in every moment, while ‘늑대와 춤을 (Dances with Wolves)’ is a playful, light-hearted take on love at first sight. ‘별 헤는 밤 (Morning to midnight)’ is a warm, mid-tempo pop track that compares love to stars lighting up the night sky. ‘고래낙하 (Whale Fall)’ draws a parallel between a whale’s descent into the ocean after death and how every moment of youth helps shape who we become. Its soft rock sound, featuring acoustic guitar and piano, evokes the feeling of slowly sinking into the ocean’s depths.

The album closes with ‘Pluto’, emphasizing youthful ambition and the relentless pursuit of forgotten dreams, carrying a message of hope and perseverance.

First and foremost, I’m very excited to make a comeback with the third full-length album! It feels surreal to release an album that closes the Youth series. For this album, we poured a lot of care into it as it is filled with songs that carry EPEX’s vibe and charms. It also contains our true sincerity, so I hope you give much love to our new album as well!
