Jannabi and Actress Cha Seo-an Stir Hearts in New MV ‘Sound of Music Pt. 1’
Jannabi Drops Cinematic Teaser for ‘Sound of Music Pt. 1’
South Korea’s critically acclaimed indie band Jannabi is turning heads once again, this time with the teaser release of their fourth studio album Sound of Music Pt. 1‘s title track music video. Shared via Jannabi’s official social media channels on the 24th, the teaser offers a glimpse of their signature lyrical style paired with dramatic visuals.
A Visual Poem Set in a Train Station
Set against the evocative backdrop of a rustic train station, the teaser weaves a delicate visual tale. From a girl riding a bicycle with a radiant smile, to a weary-looking woman, a child traveling alone on a train, and an elderly man walking toward the station—each frame is a standalone vignette that paints an emotional drama without words.
Cha Seo-an Brings Emotional Depth to the Screen
The MV features Cha Seo-an, best known for her role in the Netflix drama 폭싹 속았수다, capturing viewers’ attention as she reprises elements of emotionally resonant storytelling. Her portrayal adds a layer of cinematic authenticity, creating a compelling synergy with Jannabi’s distinct musical flair.
Aespa’s Karina Adds Star Power
Another exciting element ramping up anticipation is the participation of aespa’s Karina as a featured artist in the title track 사랑의이름으로! (“In the Name of Love”). This unexpected collaboration blends indie sensitivity with K-pop energy—an irresistible mix for fans of both genres.
Exploring the Sound Collage
Sound of Music Pt. 1 is described as a “sound collage,” a technique Jannabi has refined to reinterpret retro moods through modern audio storytelling. The album delves into themes that tangle fantasy with reality, pushing the message that “music is reality, not a dream.”
Upcoming Album Release and Live Performances
The full album drops on June 28 at 6 PM KST, while Jannabi will preview their musical universe during a two-day solo concert titled 모든 소년소녀들 2025 held on June 26 and 27 at the Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium in Seoul. The concert promises to create an immersive experience tying into the album’s theme of emotional retrospection and dreamlike visuals.
Final Thoughts
With its intriguing mix of seasoned storytelling, a star-studded cast, and genre-blending music, Sound of Music Pt. 1 marks another elevated chapter in Jannabi’s artistic journey. Expect plenty of heartfelt melodies, cinematic visuals, and a heavy dose of nostalgia.
