K-Pop Rookie Sensation NEXZ Drops Enchanting ‘Slo-mo’ MV Teaser Ahead of Comeback

K-pop’s newest breakout boy group NEXZ (Tomoya, Yuu, Haru, Sokeon, Seita, Huey, Yuki) is turning up the anticipation for their comeback with the release of a music video teaser for their upcoming track ‘Slo-mo’, featured on their second mini-album ‘O-RLY?’, launching April 28.

Shared via JYP Entertainment’s official social media on April 23, the teaser showcases the members immersed in youthful bliss — catching soft spring breezes, riding bicycles, and playfully interacting under soft-lit golden hours. These idyllic moments are tied together by the song’s theme: time may race by, but the memories made together linger vividly in our minds like a slow-motion replay.

‘Slo-mo’ delivers a vibrant blend of rhythmical grooves and energetic production, highlighting the group’s vocal warmth and synergy. During a YouTube live broadcast held on April 21, NEXZ described the track as “a lyrically touching and beautiful song.” Fans echoed the sentiment, calling the snippet of the MV and track “a perfect match for NEXZ’s charm” and predicting that the full version may move listeners to tears.

This pre-release follows the group’s eye-catching teaser for track ‘Simmer’, which paired a crispy sonic aesthetic with electrifying choreography — all leading into a promising full album experience. A performance-centered “highlight medley” for the album, which includes choreography by members Tomoya, Yuu, and Haru, is already approaching 1 million views on YouTube, further solidifying their global appeal.

‘O-RLY?’ officially drops at 6 PM KST on April 28. On the same day, at 8 PM KST, Mnet and M2 will globally stream the NEXZ COMEBACK SHOW O-RLY?, premiering the group’s new stage performances for fans around the world to experience simultaneously.
