CLOSE YOUR EYES: Members' childhood photos and unexpected pasts as they challenge being kindergarten teachers

Members of the idol group CLOSE YOUR EYES transformed into kindergarten teachers and met with children. In the video released on the KBS 'The Return of Superman' YouTube channel, the members are shown having conversations while looking at each other's childhood photos before visiting the kindergarten.

Unexpected appearances and episodes confirmed through childhood photos

Ahead of their kindergarten visit, the members shared stories while looking at prepared childhood photos. In the video, the members guessed each other's names or confirmed their past appearances while looking at the photos. In particular, when YEOJUN's childhood photo was revealed, he shared an episode where, thanks to his past appearance, high school girls on the street would give him snacks or strangers would talk to him saying he was cute. YEOJUN emphasized through a phone call with his mother that he was very cute in the past, creating a playful atmosphere.

Other members also revealed their respective pasts. Song Min-young drew reactions from the members during the process of confirming that the person in the photo was indeed him, and Seung-ho confirmed his appearance in the photo along with mentions that he had a 'distinctive look from birth.' The members also exchanged jokes, saying that low-resolution photos looked like they were from the Joseon Dynasty or looked like paintings.

Diverging reactions to children's unexpected "Please marry me" questions

A role-playing situation testing their qualities as kindergarten teachers was also conducted. The members' ways of handling questions that children might ask were revealed. Regarding how they would react if children said, "Teacher, you are ugly," the members revealed their individual values. One member said they would pretend to be hurt and answer "I'm sorry" considering the innocence of the children, while another member showed a reaction of wanting to brush it off chicly, suggesting the child might be saying it because they dislike the teacher.

In particular, during a role-playing situation of children's confessions like "I want to marry the teacher," the members' diverging attitudes drew attention. One member added to the fun of the role-play by boldly accepting the promise, saying, "I'll do it now." The members expressed anticipation, noting that such unexpected situations could actually occur in a real kindergarten setting.

CLOSE YOUR EYES, first meeting with kindergarten children and the 'Drop That!' challenge

Finally arriving at the kindergarten, the members of CLOSE YOUR EYES exchanged first greetings with the children. The members approached the children by choosing nicknames to introduce themselves, such as leader, dad, or friend. The members attempted to communicate with the children using the energy of their new song 'Drop That!'. The video depicts the members changing the atmosphere in the classroom by teaching the children the 'Drop That!' challenge for their new song. The members moved freely with the children, delivering the energy of the new song.
