In 2020, the world found itself pulled physically apart. But despite the distance we were all still connected by one language: music. It’s that spirit of global connection that threads through Monsta X’s The Dreaming, the South Korean K-pop group’s second English-language effort.
The dynamic, thoughtful collection of songs examines what happens if we stop focusing on what’s in front of our eyes and start imagining what it could be. The album suggests a better way of living by asking the listener to close their eyes and start dreaming.
