VAYONN strips back idol gloss on first EP 'Youth Today'

Rookie group VAYONN has begun their first activities with their first EP, 'Youth Today.' Rather than presenting a perfectly polished image, VAYONN prioritizes honest emotions, placing the fluctuations faced by youth at the forefront of the album.

Starting first activities with the first EP 'Youth Today'

'Sincerity' lies at the center of the album. The tracks, including the title song, capture the discrepancy between outward appearances and inner selves, as well as the wandering hearts of youth caught between them. The sentence, "There was no need to lie this much," contains the message VAYONN intends to convey during these activities.

Revealing the turbulence of youth instead of a fabricated image

Rather than staying within the typical idol image expected by the public, VAYONN expresses through music the struggles that arise from self-denial and the gaze of others. The artists' human emotions, which could be hidden behind flashy performances, are also revealed.

The lyrics, layered over a sensory sound, prompt listeners to reflect on themselves. Rather than forcing a bright facade, the album is permeated with comfort that embraces even the clumsy and trembling moments.

The first story of the team presented by VAYONN

'Youth Today' is the first record where VAYONN presents their own story rather than following trends. For their first activity, the team chose sincerity over splendor, and the album remains as a record of what emotions and voice VAYONN intends to use as they depart.
