EPEX finally made their official comeback with the release of their third full-length album, " Youth Chapter 3 : Romantic Youth, " on Monday, July 28, 2025. This marks EPEX's comeback eight months after releasing their second full-length album, "Youth Chapter 2: Youth Deficiency," in November 2024.
Along with that, the music video for the title track ' Grateful to Tears ' has also been shared via EPEX's official YouTube channel. As the title suggests, "Grateful to Tears" highlights the EPEX members' maturity in dealing with a breakup.
This pop song, with its acoustic beats and soft rock accents, successfully touches the hearts of all who listen to it. The song's warm, calming feel and deep emotional delivery are palpable. From the beginning of the song, we're immediately greeted by simple yet nostalgic music.
The lyrics convey that they're okay, even though they've cried on several occasions. However, they face this separation with composure. For some reason, when I think about someone special and the wonderful memories I've shared with them, I naturally cry.
However, these tears aren't a sign of overwhelming, incurable sadness. Rather, they're an expression of gratitude for the days and the time spent together. This warm expression of feeling is presented through the sweet and gentle lyrics of the chorus.
As expressed in the verse that reads, " Through these tears I want to say thank you for loving me / To you who have allowed me to love you / Because of you I have come to know what unforgettable love is /" Continued with the lyrics, " Looking back on the past, every moment feels so beautiful/ I learned to love/ I know how to cry/ Thank you for everything /"
Following the emotional chorus, EPEX delivers a soothing and catchy after chorus with cheerful and warm chants. Throughout the song, we can feel how truly mature they are in dealing with separation and loss, which can be difficult. They express gratitude to those who have been by their side and shared life lessons.
Although sometimes the beautiful memories they once shared bring tears, they have sincerely let go of it all. This song truly makes us all feel the loss expressed in its lyrics. Yet, it also conveys the sincerity and truth of accepting that loss and continuing to live life to the fullest.
Even though those who were once by our side are no longer there. Accompanying this song with its emotional lyrics and message, EPEX also presents an equally heartwarming music video. It showcases the members' chemistry and togetherness as they spend time together.
They support each other and live their days filled with cheerful smiles as they journey together. At the end of the music video, fans are guaranteed to be left crying or crying when the members meet again with the shadows of the important people in their lives. Before everything fades and disappears.
Meanwhile, EPEX's third full album, titled 'Youth Chapter 3: Romantic Youth,' consists of eight songs. These include the title track 'Grateful to Tears' and the pre-released track 'Picasso.' They also include 'Waffle,' 'Bang,' 'Dances with Wolves,' 'Morning to Midnight,' 'Whale Fall,' and 'Pluto.'
