You know that feeling when your two favorite drama leads finally share a scene? Multiply that by ten, and that’s how we feel right now.
Because yes, IU is making her long-awaited comeback in May 2025, and guess who’s making a special appearance in her music video? None other than Cha Eun-woo, the human embodiment of “perfect male lead.”
EDAM Confirmed It, And We’re Not Okay

After over a year of no new songs, EDAM Entertainment confirmed that IU Korean actress and singer is finally dropping a new album. Her last release, The Winning, came out in February 2024, so we’ve waited long enough.
This is big. Like, cancel-your-plans-and-replay-her-discography kind of big.
Cha Eun-woo in the MV? We’re Screaming

So, what’s bigger than an IU comeback? Cha Eun-woo in her MV. That’s right, the ASTRO idol, known for melting screens in K-dramas, is officially in the video. We don’t know if he’s playing a love interest or a heartbreaking ex, but either way, drama is coming.
This duo already had the internet buzzing earlier this year when they did a jewelry photoshoot together. The chemistry? Off the charts. And now it’s going to be immortalized in music video form? We’re living.
IU + Cha Eun-woo = Visual Storytelling Goals

Let’s not forget, IU doesn’t just make music videos. She crafts cinematic stories with feels. And Cha Eun-woo? He’s practically a K-drama genre by himself. This pairing is giving emotional rollercoaster, plot twist, and maybe even umbrella scene energy.
Fans are already flooding socials with theories, edits, and wild guesses. And we’re loving every second of it.
Stay Ready, The Comeback is Close
No exact date has dropped yet, and we’re still waiting on teasers. But knowing IU, we’re about to be hit with visuals, vocals, and feelings we weren’t ready for.
So K-pop fans, drama lovers, and everyone emotionally invested, brace yourselves. This comeback isn’t just a release, it’s an event.
Let’s Countdown Together!

And get ready to fall in love with IU and Cha Eun-woo all over again.
