Singer and producer Zico (ZICO) has released the concept photos for his new song for the first time.
On the 15th at 10 p.m., Zico posted three photos for his new digital single "DUET" on his official SNS. These are the first concept photos taken with Lilas (Yoasobi Ikura), the famous Japanese musician who collaborated on the new song.
The contrasting atmospheres of the two in the photos attract attention. Zico's free-spirited attire contrasts with Lilas's neat outfit. In another photo, all the surrounding people are making the same gesture. A unique arm movement that makes you want to mimic it draws attention, and Zico and Lilas maintain a static pose within the crowd, adding to the intrigue.
This digital single is available as merchandise that showcases fresh ideas. The record was created through a collaboration with jewelry and fashion brands, and, reflecting the meaning of duet, was made as a bracelet and necklace set. Each pendant has a magnet so they snap together when placed close. The fact that the two accessories can be connected into a single unit ties into the song title "DUET" and adds a playful element.
The digital single "DUET," which will be released at 12 a.m. on the 19th, originated from the imagination of "what if you sang a duet with an ideal partner?" On the surface, the song highlights the harmony of two people with completely opposite vocal colors and different visual styles. The meeting of Zico, a symbol of Korean hip-hop, and Lilas, who represents Japanese band music, is a topic in itself. Expectations and interest are focused on the new song by the two artists, who are considered "top-tier in Korea and Japan."
Zico is scheduled to perform "DUET" for the first time at the The 17th Melon Music Awards, MMA2025 (2025 Melon Music Awards, MMA2025) at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 20th, the day after the song's release.
