Singer and actor IU released the music video teaser for her new song "From this star." Given that it is a new song released after breaking up with Lee Jong-suk, the suggestive title is drawing attention.
On the 9th, IU's official YouTube channel released IU 'From this star (Unknown Planet)' MV Teaser.
In the briefly released video, IU faces an unidentified foreign man across the screen. The arrangement, which evokes the video call screen of an old computer, shows the two appearing to continue a conversation from different spaces.
In particular, IU piqued curiosity by even unfolding a sketchbook and appearing to exchange something with the other person. It remains shrouded in mystery what relationship the two people separated by distance have and how this scene connects to the song's narrative.
Above all, the new song's title is striking. IU's new digital single is titled "From this star." Depending on spacing, the original title "From this star" can also be read as "from breakup," leaving an uncanny aftertaste from the moment of its release.
Interest is growing because it is the first new song released after recently breaking up with Lee Jong-suk. However, since only the teaser has been released, there is no basis to conclude that the song's content is actually related to a real romance or breakup, which raises curiosity about what story IU has put into the title "From this star."
Earlier, IU released concept photos for the new song on the 7th. After revealing a new mood by changing to a short bob instead of the long hair she had kept for a long time, the teaser raised full comeback excitement by introducing an enigmatic figure.
"From this star" is the new song released about a year after the digital single "Bye, Summer," which was surprise-released on Sept. 10 last year. The track will be released at 6 p.m. on the 10th, and the music video will be unveiled at 12 a.m. on the 16th.
