YOO HEEDO
Rapper-turned-singer YOO HEEDO will release his second solo single, “NADU,” this April 22 at noon KST. This is the first time in 10 months since his debut single, “STILL LOVE,” was released last June.
YOO HEE DO made a notable appearance as a member of Team 24:00 on JTBC’s Survival show “Peak Time” in 2023. Since then, he has steadily built a solid reputation as a solo artist, showcasing a warm sensitivity and remarkable musical talent with his single “겨울이니까.”
The new song, “Nadu,” is a sophisticated production that speaks of simplicity and the emotional turmoil of love. A light yet seductive vocal flows smoothly over dynamic synth and minimalist beats.
The intuitive chorus, “They don’t love you like I do,” in particular, conveys a deep resonance with the conviction and affection of love. Moreover, the lyrics, which blend Korean and English, brilliantly express the sensitivity of love.
“‘Nadu’ is a song that encapsulates YOO HEEDO‘s emotional authenticity and musical direction,” said Futore’s agency.
“It will be a symbolic step that will mark his artistic future, beyond a simple love song.”
This song centers on TRACK3R (real name Kim Min Hyuk), Futore’s representative and producer. Lab Public-recognized artists Kohway and Marv participated in the co-writing and composition for greater completeness. The emotional sound and trendy composition blend seamlessly, revealing the game’s clear musical universe. The arrangement, mixing, and mastering were carefully crafted with TRACK3R’s participation throughout the process.
The music video, which will be released on the official YouTube channel upon the song’s release on the 22nd, is a unique composition combining original storytelling and experimental visual beauty with the theme of “Reactivate Love.” Thanks to the “Love Cell Activation Kit,” which the main character YOO HEEDO accidentally received, various love scenarios based on AI synthesis unfold like a panorama to maximize audiovisual immersion.
