Close jQuery Popup when ESC KEY Pressed on the particular instance

The following code which am used for closing the popup using ESC Key

 $(document).keyup(function(e){
     if (e.keyCode === 27) {
         closePopup(id);
     }
 });

Later, i found that was wrong, wrong in the sense, i have written the above code in .ready(), that is whenever i pressed the ESC Key it makes some process so, i changed to the following code, This seems good but whenever i hover only the action takes place

$("#"+id).hover(function() {
         $(document).keyup(function(e){
             if (e.keyCode === 27) {
                 closePopup(id);
             }
         });
     });

Now what i need is, i need to close the popup using ESC KEY ONLY when the popup opens.
Can anyone help..?

i dont want to use document for this..!!

Edit: Deleted older answer misunderstand something, there is nothing bad at your first try. at first i though you are trying with an input now i read a gain its (modal, sorry about that

So

$(document).keyup(function(e) {

  if (e.keyCode == 27) { <DO YOUR WORK HERE> }   // esc
});

To unbind use

 $(document).unbind("keyup", keyUpFunc)......
