Singer-songwriter hwamo will release her 3rd single "Urokogumo" on October 10, co-written with Rikuto Nagira, producer of the R&B unit lo-key design. Her first official music video will also premiere the same day at 7PM (JST).

The track is an emotional and alternative R&B breakup song, crafted over two years with Nagira. Blending the warmth of live instruments with a lo-fi texture, it delicately portrays the pain of parting with a loved one through a lyrical world that flows between Japanese, Korean, and English, set against the colors of autumn. It is a song that gently accompanies lonely nights and the twilight of the season.

The music video, directed by Korean filmmaker Suhwang, captures the lyrical essence of the song with striking visuals. The cover artwork is designed by Kaco, a fellow artist and dancer from hwamo's hometown. A limited 7-inch vinyl and release shows in Kansai are also planned, marking her next step as an artist.
