Watch aespa get down to business in the new video for ‘Dirty Work’
aespa are getting back to work in a new performance teaser for ‘Dirty Work’ – check out the clip below.
Last week, the K-pop group teased their comeback with a social post hinting at a new song, ‘Dirty Work’. The song is due for release on June 27, though it’s currently unclear if it’ll just be a single release, of there will be an album or EP accompanying it.
Ahead of the song’s full release, aespa have offered fans a teaser for ‘Dirty Work’, uploading a new performance video on to YouTube. Shot on iPhone, the video sees the quartet enter a warehouse, where they’re joined by dancers and show off their flashy moves.
The teaser ends with aespa surrounded by pyrotechnics – watch the teaser below.
Their comeback will be their first since releasing the mini-album ‘Whiplash’ in late October. Besides the title track, that EP also included the songs ‘Kill It’, ‘Flights, Not Feelings’, ‘Pink Hoodie’, ‘Flowers’ and ‘Just Another Girl’.
In December, aespa’s ‘Supernova’ was crowned NME‘s top K-pop song of the year: “Although aespa have had a solid run throughout their career, ‘Supernova’ so accurately foretells the unbelievable creative and commercial success this year that it may well have been written in the stars. Thrilling and bold, ‘Supernova’ is a three-minute trip into a futuristic cyberpunk utopia, leaving you wanting more the second it’s over.”
The track was also deemed NME‘s ninth best song of 2024: “Bursting with a bouncy electro beat and a stellar hook, ‘Supernova’ affirms the girl group’s ability to thrive in uncharted territory.”
In a four-star review of aespa’s ‘Armageddon’, NME‘s Rhian Daly wrote: “Over the last four years, aespa’s release history has been a little checkered, with the group often sharing a record that knocks your socks off and then, on the next, losing that quality again. Happily, much of ‘Armageddon’ falls into the former camp and reinforces what we already knew – that when aespa are allowed to run free in the sounds and sonics they’ve made their trademark, they’re nothing short of exquisite.”
