"moonboy" is an irresistibly catchy pop-love duet that captures the thrill of falling head over heels. JVKE's signature soaring falsetto intertwines perfectly with JEON SOMI's sweet vocals, showcasing their artistry as singer-songwriters with unforgettable melodies.

The seeds for this collaboration were planted long before its release. Late last year, JVKE brought JEON SOMI out as a surprise guest during his tour stop in Seoul, where they debuted "moonboy" live for the first time. The performance ignited an instant reaction from fans, with videos spreading across social media and demand for a studio version growing louder by the day. Now, the track is finally here, marking another deep connection between JVKE and the Korean music scene—following previous collaborations with the likes of KIM CHAEWON (LE SSERAFIM), TAEHYUN (TOMORROW X TOGETHER), and ENHYPEN.

For JVKE, following his global phenomenon "golden hour", he has established at the forefront of romantic pop music globally with a string of hits, and "moonboy" further cements his unique gift for crafting unforgettable melodies. For JEON SOMI, the solo star behind hits like "DUMB DUMB”, “Fast Forward” and “Closer" with hundreds of millions of streams to her name, this collaboration represents another bold step in her ever-expanding global musical journey.

"moonboy" opens up new frontiers for both artists who both continue the hot streak they have been on in the last 12 months. Set to make waves across pop and K-pop fans alike,"moonboy" is poised to become a defining collaboration of 2026.

JEON SOMI DROPS NEW SINGLE "CLOSER" OFF HER BRAND NEW EP "CHAOTIC & CONFUSED" - OUT TODAY

Picture

August 11th, 2025 (Seoul, South Korea) -- THEBLACKLABEL’s flagship artist JEON SOMI unveils her powerful new single and music video for the title track ‘CLOSER,’ from her brand-new EP Chaotic & Confused, out today. Watch HERE and listen HERE.

‘CLOSER’ reimagines the classic ‘Beautiful Girls’ through the lens of Stutter House, blending a sensual mood with bursts of intensity and rising tension that pull the listener in. With its grand, polished production, the track becomes a true celebration of beauty. Visually striking and explosively dynamic, the music video mirrors this intensity, portraying JEON SOMI in scenes that shift between raw chaos and goddess-like elegance.

JEON SOMI’s 2nd EP Album [Chaotic & Confused] marks a pivotal moment in her artistic journey, capturing her growth through bold musical experimentation, transformative soundscapes, and heartfelt storytelling. 

From the title track “CLOSER,” which experiments with a new genre called Stutter House, to “Escapade,” a stylish reinterpretation of post-punk, each song on the album offers something fresh and vibrant. The pre-release single “EXTRA” blends new disco and R&B, while “Chaotic & Confused” is a hybrid pop track marked by unpredictable transitions true to its name. Rounding out the EP is “DELU,” an emotional R&B number. Together, these tracks form a cohesive narrative of artistic self-discovery, told entirely through her own voice.

The various chaotic situations surrounding her—including the pressures of being an artist and the struggle with inner conflict—serve as central themes throughout the album. Lyrics like “My voice goes hoarse as I battle myself” are symbolic, capturing her journey of self-discovery through her internal struggles and the beauty that emerges from them. The album stands as both an honest confession and a reflection of a young, contemporary artist’s creative journey toward artistic evolution.

JEON SOMI, who contributed not only to songwriting and composition but also to the album’s visuals and performance direction, challenges herself creatively at every level. She showcases her multifaceted artistry, affirming her growth and transformation into a truly one-of-a-kind artist.

The album also credits TEDDY, Vince, Dominsuk, Jesse Bluu, Zikai, Johan Carlsson, Elvira Anderfjärd, Shae Jacobs, B.I, and Mudd the student as some of the Songwriters and Producers who contributed to this project.
