Artist Overview


BOYNEXTDOOR is a six-member boy group under KOZ Entertainment that debuted on May 30, 2023. Their name reflects the intention to stay by their fans' side in a friendly and consistent manner, just like boys living next door. They have been capturing the hearts of global listeners by candidly incorporating everyday emotions into their music. As an artist-driven group where all members participate in songwriting, they are establishing a unique musical narrative based on an unconstrained, free-spirited energy.

Recently, they have signaled a drastic image transformation with their upcoming first full-length album, "HOME," scheduled for release on June 8, 2026. In the "NAVIGATOR" version of concept photos and films released on May 23, the members shed their previous friendly "neighborhood boy" image, instead exuding provocative gazes and charismatic auras, showing their serious resolve and confidence for their first full-length album. This album sincerely unpacks the emotions and memories they have experienced since their debut, unraveling stories that anyone can relate to—including love, youth, growth, and pain—through their own unique musical grammar.

Their songwriting and composing process, in which members play a leading role, injects realistic worries and emotions of teenagers and young adults into their music, giving it strong persuasive power.

Their stage performances also prefer free-spirited choreography that maximizes each member's individuality rather than strictly synchronized routines. Their approach of closely linking visual concepts with musical messages is a core musical asset of BOYNEXTDOOR, making their concepts enjoyable as a complete form of storytelling.
