8TURN On K-Drama Recs, Hardships, And Their Newest Album "Unchartered Drift" | Exclusive Interview

8TURN, previously known as BOM (Boys of MNH), is a group under MNH Entertainment consisting of members SeungHeon, YunGyu, HaeMin, MinHo, JaeYun, MyungHo, YoonSung, and KyungMin. They debuted just this year on January 30, 2023 with the mini album titled, "8TURNRISE."

Despite being a fairly new group, 8TURN has grabbed the attention of many K-Pop fans for their catchy songs as well as obvious good looks. Seeing as they continue to garner a huge following across all platforms, it is expected that 8TURN will undoubtedly continue to make their mark in the industry.

On June 26th, 2023, 8TURN released their second mini-album, "UNCHARTERED DRIFT." While their initial debut talked about the eight members waking up the world of familiarity. However, the narrative persists and broadens with this new album as the members delve into the tumult of a midsummer night. Their unpredictable nature leads them to new adventures and goals.

"UNCHARTERED DRIFT" features five new tracks, including the title track 'EXCEL,' which boasts an energy-boosting beat and melody. The message of the song is that "I will be responsible for all my actions" and choosing to overcome any obstacles that come their way while achieving their dreams.

Kpopmap had the privilege of chatting with the up and coming group about their new album.
