The upcoming single marks Jisoo’s first international collaboration, stepping outside her solo and BLACKPINK projects, while it also introduces Zayn to the vibrant K-pop scene for the very first time.
According to reports, the music video is directed by UnderWonder Content, the creative powerhouse behind iconic visuals for BTS’s Jungkook and Lady Gaga. Industry insiders describe the duet as a hauntingly beautiful fusion of melancholy pop and celestial synths, blending both artists’ distinct voices into one mesmerizing soundscape.
Hints of the collaboration began surfacing weeks ago when Jisoo posted cryptic teasers on social media, one featuring her silhouette with a shadowy figure behind her and the words “Eyes Closed” etched across the frame. Later, she dropped another teaser with the caption, “two voices, one orbit,” fueling wild speculation among fans.
