EuroEyez

Yerin Moerbeck has her heart in two places: she’s loyal to her hometown of Hamburg, where she even opened a restaurant, and she has a family history that goes back to Korea. Born in 1989, the artist grew up with two cultures, where Backstreet Boys, dance-pop à la ATB, and K-pop overlapped. While her brother Noah has been active as a solo artist and producer under the moniker jinO.o for some time, Yerin’s desire to pursue a career in pop music only arose during the pandemic. Now, as EuroEyez, she integrates her various influences and sonic memories into an original concept that she likes to call »indie K-pop«: songs like »Dalnim«, released on Cologne’s Safe Space Records, bridge the gap between Hamburg and Seoul, with Korean (and English) lyrics, loosely quoting the dance-pop sound of the German charts in the nineties. They work equally well on the dance floor, with Dance Dance Mania in the arcade, and on your Bluetooth speakers at home.
