IU will release a new digital single on September 10, 2026, at 6 PM (KST). On September 4, EDAM Entertainment posted a teaser video announcing the release on IU’s official social media accounts, displaying “IU DIGITAL SINGLE” and “2026.09.10 6PM (KST).”
Release time confirmed, but song title not yet revealed
The only information officially confirmed at present is the digital single’s release schedule. As of the time of review, neither the teaser nor related reports had disclosed the song title. Some outlets claimed different titles, but without an official announcement or independent cross-verification, those claims cannot be treated as confirmed information. Therefore, the currently verifiable details are that IU has a new digital single scheduled for release at 6 PM on September 10.
A new song approximately one year after “Bye, Summer”
The release was reported to be IU’s first new song in approximately one year since the digital single “Bye, Summer,” released in September 2025. The interval since her previous digital single can be confirmed, but it has not been officially confirmed whether this single is a pre-release track from her sixth studio album.
IU was reported to have adjusted the schedule for her Goyang concert and sixth studio album, which had been planned for September 2026, due to worsening symptoms of patulous Eustachian tube. The release of this digital single was separately announced for 6 PM on September 10, while its title and connection to the sixth studio album still require further official disclosure.
