The music video, which was released along with the song, also ranked first for three consecutive days on YouTube's global daily popular music video chart right after its release. The reaction is that it captures aespa's unrivaled identity with its conceptual video beauty that melts the story of season 2 of the world view that extends to multi-space and contemporary technologies such as AI.

Meanwhile, "Supernova" is a double title song from aespa's first full-length album Armageddon, and it is an impressive dance song with a weighty kick and minimal track sound based on the base.

The new album will be released on May 27th.
