A new name just walked onto JYP's main channel. The label posted the first MV teaser for 'Closer' — 靠近 in the original Chinese — by 奔赴少年CIIU, giving the song its opening frame in exactly 23 seconds.
The clip went live at one in the afternoon Korean time on August 2, carrying the full trilingual billing the group uses everywhere: the Chinese name 奔赴少年CIIU, the Korean rendering 뻔푸소년CIIU, and the song title written as 靠近(Closer)in both scripts. The 'Teaser 1' numbering leaves obvious room on the shelf for what comes next.
The description routes fans to where the group actually lives: official accounts on Weibo, Bilibili, Douyin and RedNote, all linked in a row. That makes JYP's YouTube channel the video's international front door, while the group's day-to-day presence runs on Chinese platforms.
For fans outside China, this teaser is the accessible window into the rollout — and each next piece of the 'Closer' era that lands on JYP Entertainment's channel will surface in K-POP PULSE's scans the hour it appears.
Context for International Fans
奔赴少年CIIU is a group promoted through JYP Entertainment's official YouTube channel, with its fan platforms on Chinese services: Weibo, Bilibili, Douyin (the Chinese counterpart of TikTok) and RedNote (Xiaohongshu). The song title 靠近 is presented as 'Closer' in the teaser's own billing, so international fans can search either form.
Why It Matters
A slot on JYP's main channel gives a Chinese-platform group a global window it doesn't have at home — Weibo and Douyin don't travel, but a YouTube teaser does. 'Teaser 1' opening a numbered rollout means the 'Closer' era is being built for viewers on both sides of that platform wall.
What to Watch Next
Watch JYP Entertainment's channel for the next 'Closer' pieces — the teaser's numbering starts a countdown the channel will finish with the full MV. K-POP PULSE scans the channel hourly, so each drop surfaces here as it lands.
