Today (July 4), Odd Eye Circle dropped a teaser video for ‘Air Force One’, seemingly a song from their upcoming project ‘Version Up’. The clip follows the trio, dressed in striking black-and-white outfits, as they step out of a van and into an empty parking garage.
On June 27, Odd Eye Circle confirmed that they’d be making their long-awaited return with new music. In a new teaser image, the girl group stated that they would be releasing ‘Version Up’ on July 12.

The teaser comes shortly after Jinsoul, Kim Lip and Choerry, along with fellow LOONA member Heejin, joined Modhaus, the agency founded by LOONA’s former creative director Jaden Jeong. The four K-pop idols had secured injunctions to terminate their Blockberry Creative contracts in January 2023.
The return of Odd Eye Circle will also be the first release under the moniker ARTMS. In an exclusive interview with NME, Jeong had spoken about how ARTMS, or the “Artemis Strategy”, would be how the agency refers to the “action and activities” of Heejin, Kim Lip, Jinsoul and Choerry. However, at the time he also said that the quartet “will continue the identity of LOONA”.
In other LOONA news, members Hyunjin and Vivi have signed with a new agency called CTDENM, which is reportedly headed by former Blockberry Creative director Yoon Do-yeon. The news came four months after the two idols had filed injunctions to suspend their contracts with agency Blockberry Creative.
