Singer-actress IU is set to release a new digital single Thursday, marking her first musical release in exactly a year.

According to her agency, Edam Entertainment, "Unknown Planet" will drop at 6 p.m. across all major music streaming platforms. The single arrives one year after "Bye, Summer," her surprise digital single released Sept. 10, 2025.

The new project features double lead tracks -- "Unknown Planet" and "Dear My Crazy Soulmate" -- both of which were written by IU herself. These songs are also slated to be included in her upcoming sixth studio album, a release that was previously delayed due to health concerns.

The music video for "Dear My Crazy Soulmate" will be released alongside the single, with IU appearing as a police officer. Following that, the video for "Unknown Planet" is scheduled to debut at midnight Tuesday.

歌手兼演员IU将于周四发行全新数位单曲，这将是她时隔整整一年后的首支音乐作品。

据其经纪公司Edam Entertainment透露，《Unknown Planet》将于下午6点在各大音乐流媒体平台上线。这首单曲距离她于2025年9月10日惊喜发布的数位单曲《Bye, Summer》已过去一年。

新专辑主打歌为《Unknown Planet》和《Dear My Crazy Soulmate》，两首歌曲均由IU亲自创作。这两首歌也将收录在她即将发行的第六张录音室专辑中，该专辑此前因健康问题而推迟发行。

IU的单曲《Dear My Crazy Soulmate》的MV将与单曲同步发布，IU在MV中饰演一名警察。随后，《Unknown Planet》的MV将于周二午夜首播。
