[Nate] "WHO IS THIS MAN NEXT TO IU?" ... WARM TWO-SHOT IN HER SNS SPARKS BUZZ

Singer-actress IU has released BTS photos from the music video for her new song "Unknown Planet," drawing attention to the handsome actor who appears alongside her.

On the 16th, IU posted several photos on her social media with the brief caption, "Unknown Planet."

The released photos capture the set of the music video for her new digital single, "Unknown Planet." In particular, she caught the eye by smiling while sharing a tender, eye-to-eye moment with a male actor.

Upon the release of the photo, fans expressed their curiosity, reacting with comments such as "Who is the man next to her?", "It has a cinematic vibe," and "They have great chemistry."

The man in question is Spanish actor Jorge Lopez. He gained global recognition through roles in the Disney series Soy Luna and the Netflix series Élite, and he starred alongside IU as the male lead in the music video for "Unknown PLatnet."

In the music video, released on the same day, the two appear as characters who traverse time and space to find one another. The video opens with IU sitting alone in a dark space and unfolds a sci-fi movie-like world, accompanied by the narration: "Today is September 16th. A good day to leave for an unknown place."

In particular, the scene where IU and Jorge Lopez lock eyes and share a connection across the screen, complemented by dreamlike visuals, left a lasting impression. The latter part of the video featured scenes set against the backdrop of vast space, visually bringing to life the meaning behind the song’s title, "Uknown Planet."

Global fans responded enthusiastically immediately after the music video's release. They praised the work with comments such as "It feels like a movie," "The visuals are stunning," and "The song feels like an entire universe."
