IU confirms comeback on February 20th

IU confirmed the release date of her new mini album as February 20th and released a mood film.

The agency EDAM Entertainment posted a mood film of IU's 6th mini album 'The Winning' through its official SNS channel at midnight on the 29th to 30th.

In the video released on this day, IU immediately caught the attention of viewers with her unconventional blonde hairstyle and intense red fashion. IU sprays spray toward the camera lens, stands holding a crumpled piece of paper, and then stares at the camera. Several scenes pass and IU, in a green background, stares at the screen once again, ending with the subtitles 'The Winning' and the release date '2024.2.20'.

Even though the video is short, IU's facial expressions and sophisticated visual beauty amplified curiosity about the soon-to-be-released mini album. The meaning and detailed information of the mini album 'The Winning' will be revealed through contents that will be released sequentially.

Previously, IU's pre-released song <Love wins all> on the 24th ranked first on Melon's TOP 100 and HOT 100 within an hour of its release. Then, Genie, Bugs, Flo, and Vibe (daily chart) ranked 1st, YouTube Music (weekly chart) ranked 1st, and iChart's weekly cumulative total 1st place, and they are firmly maintaining the major charts with perfect all-kills.

Meanwhile, IU continues full-scale promotion of 'The Winning', starting with this mood film.
