Lee Seung-gi Stars in Wild West-Inspired Promo for Rookie K-pop Group KIIRAS

South Korean actor and singer Lee Seung-gi has returned to the spotlight, joining forces with fellow actor Eum Moon-seok to support rookie girl group KIIRAS in a bold and cinematic debut promo. The surprise video released on May 7 via KIIRAS’s official social media and YouTube account has already sparked intense buzz among K-pop fans worldwide.

The video showcases Lee and Eum in full cowboy regalia, evoking the spirit of the American Wild West. Without uttering a single word, the two deliver gripping performances, exchanging fierce glares in a tense standoff. The stylized showdown gets even more intriguing when Eum mimics a gunfire gesture, prompting Lee to dramatically fall, revealing a bullet engraved with the name “KIIRAS.”

The teaser ends with a hint of what appears to be KIIRAS’s debut song, further fueling excitement ahead of their official launch. The group has been dubbed a ‘5th-generation super rookie’, and this enigmatic teaser successfully amplified global anticipation for their full musical debut on May 29.

Lee Seung-gi’s participation has drawn particular attention, as it marks a show of loyalty to LeanBranding CEO Kim Byung-seon, the very figure who discovered him during his Superstar K days. Longtime friend Eum Moon-seok also stepped in at Lee’s request, adding warmth to the project’s behind-the-scenes story.

Fans are eagerly awaiting KIIRAS’s debut, as the group prepares to roll out a series of promotional contents leading up to their official entry into the K-pop scene. With heavy support from household names like Lee Seung-gi, KIIRAS appears poised to make a powerful entrance.
