SE SO NEON’s “New Romantic” Offers a Poetic Glimpse Into Debut Album ‘NOW’


SE SO NEON release “New Romantic,” a warm and cinematic track ahead of debut album ‘NOW’ on August 15.
South Korean group SE SO NEON step closer to their debut album NOW with the release of their heartfelt new single “New Romantic.” Led by vocalist and producer Soyoon Hwang, the band once again proves their strength in emotional storytelling through sound.
With lush synth arrangements and soft vocals, “New Romantic” creates a warm sonic atmosphere, full of introspection and lyrical nuance. The track reflects Soyoon’s deeply personal approach to love and human connection.
In her words:
“Even if it’s platonic love, a humanitarian love… ‘New Romantic’ is my own romantic way of expressing love to someone…”
Drawing from influences like new wave, blues, and synth pop, SE SO NEON has developed a unique sound that resonates globally. Though the songs are primarily in Korean, the music crosses borders effortlessly.
“People will feel my energy and my soul,” Soyoon affirms.
“New Romantic” follows recent album singles “Twit Winter” and “Remember!”—each offering a different emotional and sonic perspective from NOW.
As the August 15 release date approaches, SE SO NEON invites listeners into their artistic world with a song that balances vulnerability with optimism. “New Romantic” is more than a track—it’s a celebration of meaningful expression.
