D.O. Shares Vintage Teasers for 'Darling' During Concert Tour

Singer and actor D.O. (Doh Kyung-soo) is coming back with new music about two months after his last release. His digital single, "Darling," drops Nov. 11 at 6 p.m. KST on major music platforms.

The song is his first release since his fourth EP, "DOPAMINE," which came out in September.

D.O. announced the single on his official social media accounts at midnight KST on the 9th, sharing a release poster. Thirty minutes later, at 12:30 a.m. KST, he posted a concept teaser image.

The poster sets a dandelion photo and a cloth label against a sheet of faded paper. It carries an English line: "Darling I'm dreamin' 'bout you and your starry eyes." His name and the release date, written as "26.11.11," appear on it as well.

The teaser image looks like a page from an old photo album. Shots of tall grass, plants in glass jars and other small props sit next to handwritten notes. The old photos and records give the image a feeling of missing someone. The notes and props hint at the story the new song will tell.

Details on the track's genre and sound have not been released yet.

"DOPAMINE" did well overseas. The EP hit No. 1 on iTunes album charts in six countries, including Japan. It also reached No. 2 on the worldwide iTunes album chart.

The new single arrives while D.O. is on the road. He is currently on his "2026-2027 DOH KYUNG SOO CONCERT TOUR [DAY OFF]" and has already played Seoul and Macao. The tour will continue to Bangkok, Jakarta, Kaohsiung, Singapore, Hong Kong, Manila, Tokyo and Taipei.

Two releases in about two months, with a long run of tour dates in between, show how busy his schedule has become. With "Darling," he is giving fans abroad something new to hear before he reaches their cities.
