Earlier this month, Irene announced her solo debut, revealing that she would release a mini-album titled Like A Flower. The release will feature an impressive lineup of eight tracks, including the title track of the same name.

Following the announcement, anticipation grew as Red Velvet’s social media accounts shared the much sought-after teaser schedule. The concept’s black-and-white aesthetics, interspersed with delicate, blooming flower motifs, heightened anticipation for her solo debut.

Since then, the recent teaser photos and a “Mood Clip” video have further solidified the buzz surrounding the release.

The newly released teaser images evoke a haunting and ethereal aesthetic, blending dark romanticism with serene, otherworldly vibes. One standout image features Irene emerging from a lake, her hair wet and clinging to her face, while she gazes intensely into the camera, exuding a mysterious and sensual allure.

Another powerful photo captures her submerged underwater, curled up in a pose that adds an enigmatic, dreamlike quality to the visuals.

The “Mood Clip” video is equally compelling. It showcases Irene falling into a body of water and later standing eerily in an open field, all filtered in black and white to heighten the scene’s haunting beauty.

With anticipation growing, Irene’s teasers quickly went viral, amassing over 110,000 likes on X (formerly Twitter) and dominating Korean online forums like TheQoo. There, a post featuring the teasers surpassed 16,000 views and generated hundreds of comments. It became one of the hottest topics of the day.

Korean netizens expressed excitement that rivals that of international fans. Many anticipate her solo debut not only for her unique vocal tone but also for the breathtaking and meticulously designed teaser visuals that showcase Irene’s extraordinary versatility.
