EPEX 2nd Album Digestion (韶華) Chapter 2 : Youth Deficiency

EPEX is making a comeback with the second album of their youth trilogy, “Digestion (韶華) Chapter 2: Youth Deficiency”.

While the first album, “Youthful Days,” was released in April 2024 and told the story of EPEX standing in the midst of youth, including the stories they wanted to tell to young people, the problems and worries they faced, and their purest love story, the second album, “Youth Deficiency,” tells the story of the complex deficiencies that come with being a young person and how to fulfill those deficiencies by making choices every day.

As the album is full of music that expresses the essential deficiencies of youth, the choices we make in response to them, and the mindset of youth, I hope it will provide great comfort and empathy to youth who are going through the same period.

1. UNIVERSE

The title track “UNIVERSE” is a song with a clear message that I choose my own unIVErse and that unIVErse must be you. It features a shuffle-style beat and a unique arrangement style, as well as a straightforward and powerful melody.

Arranged by HONEYSWEAT

2. My Girl

This is a love song with sweet but honest lyrics that tells the story of a confession of a girl who is awkward in love but courageously conveys her heart. It is an R&B hip-hop genre with a groovy bassline, inTENse pads and fluxins, and an energetic atmosphere.

3. Romantic Girl

[“Romantic Girl” is a song that expresses curious feelings about a member of the opposite sex who has a unique charm that you can't easily understand, and it's a fun song about how you feel like you're living in 1997, and you're getting to like her more and more as you care about her. The dreamy guitar riff in the introduction and the beat that makes your heart flutter are impressIVE.

Korean Lyrics by danke, 이지연(lalala studio)

Composed by KZ, TaeYoung Kim, DINT, MLC, Donny Montell

Arranged by KZ, Kim Tae Young

4. It is what it is

[“It is what it is” is a song with the message that sometimes it can be better to be in a state of deficiency that empties rather than fills. “It is what it is. What can I do?” and that letting go is necessary for the youth of today, the song's bouncy synth line and fairy-tale-like song development, as well as the bright and cool chanting of Efex, provide lightness.

5. Attosecond

[Attosecond is one hundredth of a second. It is a song that talks about the imporTANce of youth that passes in a moment, and the composition of the song with a large contrast adds funkyness.

Composed by KZ, Kim Tae Young, BIO(B.O.)

Arranged by KZ, Kim Tae Young

6. Amazing Everyday Life

[“Everyday Wonders” is about the wonders of everyday life that are ofTEN overlooked, and it conveys the message that discovering small miracles in ordinary moments can fill the deficiency of youth. The song is in the drum and bass genre and features a dramatic composition that unfolds at a fast BPM.

7. About LOST Things

[“About LOST Things” is a song about the loss of youth. It is a rock song with a strong sound that contains the message that regret is repeatedly felt as if it is lOST forever, but on the other hand, this deficiency makes youth grow.

Korean Lyrics by 3!(lalala studio), Kim Minjae(ONCLASSA)

Composed by KZ, TaeYoung Kim, DINT, OkhanUenver

Arranged by KZ, Kim Tae Young

8. Loner

This song conveys the message that everyone is lonely anyway and that we should welcome loneliness rather than reject it. It starts with a rhythmic piano performance and features a hopeful melody line.
