Yoo Heedo has released his second single "NADU" on April 22 in alignment with his birthday.
The title song ‘NADU’ is a song that harmonizes Yoo Hee-do’s appealing vocals on top of bouncy synths and minimal beats. The lyrics, which intersect confidence and longing for love, and the intuitive chorus, “They don’t love you like I do,” maximize the emotions.
Fellow artists kohway and Marv, who received attention on RAP:PUBLIC, participated in writing the lyrics and composing the song, adding a trendy yet three-dimensional emotion and raising the perfection of the song.
The title of the song, ‘NADU,’ was inspired by the point where the repeated pronunciation of “I don’t care about it” in the lyrics overlaps with the nuance of the English expression “I do.” The pronunciation of ‘-ㅏ두’, where Korean and English meet, is a rhythm of emotion that transcends language and a symbol that purely expresses the sincerity of love. This one word that remains in the heart as it is heard and becomes closer as it is sung sensually leads the mood of the entire song.
Yoo Heedo’s second single ‘NADU’ will be a meaningful milestone that goes beyond a simple love song and announces the expansion of his musical world.
