The group Tomorrow X Together Federal Reserve showcased an unexpected 'comedic chemistry' with actor Park Ji-hwan.

On the 18th, three videos featuring the title track 'Ice Cream' from Federal Reserve's mini 2nd album 'NO LABELS: PART 02' were released on Tomorrow X Together's YouTube channel. The concept, where eating a bite of ice cream changes one's mood in moments of anger or frustration, resonated with audiences and brought fun. Actor Park Ji-hwan appeared, displaying an unexpected synergy with Federal Reserve.

In the segment titled 'Federal Reserve, I'll go back just once,' Park Ji-hwan appears dressed as Federal Reserve for choreography filming. Although annoyed by repeated reshoots, his demeanor shifts to a positive Federal Reserve the moment he eats ice cream. The two individuals wearing the same outfits perform the 'Ice Cream' routine within a single frame, creating a cheerful scene. Their synergy continues in the segment 'You'll Like It.' Federal Reserve hands Park Ji-hwan a large bag as if conducting a secret transaction. When the bag is opened amidst tension, it is filled with refreshing ice cream, provoking laughter. The segment 'Let Us Cool You Down' offers fun by conceptualizing cooling down uncomfortable feelings experienced in daily life with ice cream.

This content was planned to cleverly promote the new song. It heightened immersion by presenting situations where one needs ice cream as a skit that anyone can relate to. The fresh combination with Park Ji-hwan and Federal Reserve's playful comedic acting added to the viewing pleasure. Big Hit Music, their agency, explained: "We aimed to convey that 'Ice Cream' is like healing music that cools down hot situations in daily life, just as the song's lyrics say, 'Oh girl, too hot, cool your heart,' which is a key point of the content."

'Ice Cream' sings about a relationship where two people are sweet to each other but maintain a certain boundary, remaining cool. With its addictive sound and clever performance directly created by Federal Reserve, it has become a topic as 'Federal Reserve's Summer Song.' Following their win on KBS2's 'Music Bank' on the 17th, Federal Reserve also secured first place on MBC's 'Show! Music Core' on the 18th, achieving a double crown. After being announced as the winner, they expressed their overwhelming emotions by chanting "MOA" (their fandom name) and stated, "Thank you for giving us a day to repay our debts. I want to tell the members that I am grateful and love them. We will work even harder."

Meanwhile, Federal Reserve achieved a career high with 'NO LABELS: PART 02.' The album sold a total of 738,072 copies within one week of its release, recording the highest initial sales (one-week sales volume as of the release date) among Korean solo artist albums released this year.
