'Wild Thing' simultaneously released the song 'Love is(러브 이즈)', the representative track of the fictional group 'Triangle' in the film, and unveiled the music video.

'Wild Thing', a comedy film in which the 3rd-member mixed dance group 'Triangle', which once dominated the music industry but disbanded overnight due to an unexpected incident, makes a reckless challenge to seize a chance for comeback after 20 years, will draw attention by releasing the song and music video for 'Love is(러브 이즈)', the debut and representative track of 'Triangle' in the film, on the 21st.

'Love is(러브 이즈)', released simultaneously on major domestic music platforms including Genie, Melon, FLO, Bugs, and Vibe, as well as global platforms such as YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Music at noon on April 21, immediately makes a strong impression upon release. 'Love is(러브 이즈)' is a dance pop that modernly reinterprets the bright and hopeful melodies of the golden era of dance music from the mid-to-late 1990s to the early 2000s, featuring a memorable blend of familiar emotions with sophisticated sound. In particular, composer Shim Eun-ji (JYP Entertainment), who has worked with various artists including TWICE's 'KNOCK KNOCK' and 'YES or YES', as well as SHINee, IU, and ITZY, contributed to enhance the song's quality, showcasing her signature mass appeal and solid melody in this track as well.

Most importantly, 'Love is(러브 이즈)' serves as the debut song of the group 'Triangle', intuitively capturing fresh energy and youthful charm. With its upbeat sound, lyrics filled with the excitement of love, and a catchy, addictive chorus that stays in the mind after just one listen, the song is poised to become a Kang Ryeok-han (CEO) track that instantly etches the presence of 'Triangle' into the public consciousness.

The simultaneously released music video instantly captivates viewers by evoking the emotions of that era. Beyond the retro frame composition based on a 4:3 aspect ratio, the addition of an emotional filter applied to the foreground and an eyelighting effect that sharply highlights the eyes perfectly recreates the unique analog sensibility of music videos from that time. Combined with restrained camera movement, the video revitalizes the essence of past music video conventions in a modern way.

Furthermore, the visual concept achieves a striking contrast by using red 'Hyun-woo' (played by Kang Dong-won), green 'Domi' (played by Park Ji-hyun), and blue 'Sang-gu' (played by Eom Tae-gu) as color accents against a white background. Each member's costume and background colors are organically matched to maximize individual character traits. This simple yet intuitive color play leaves a strong impression and boosts visual immersion.

Finally, music and performance elevate the song's quality. A trendy intro that meticulously breaks down the beat, along with easy-to-follow choreography by choreographer Yang Wook (Nana Company), combines with the addictive melody to deliver powerful appeal. In particular, the combination of three characters with distinct charms—'Dance Machine' Hyun-woo, who showcases dazzling breakdancing; 'Storm Rapper' Sang-gu, who etches his presence with impactful rap; and 'Confident Center' Domi, who instantly captures attention—creates perfect synergy, further raising expectations for the team's chemistry in the film.

Meanwhile, 'Wild Thing' will meet audiences on June 3.
