Park Ji Hoon teases fans with the concept trailer for his first UNIVERSE Music single, "Call U Up."

Global tech leader NCSoft and its entertainment subsidiary Klap has released the "Call U Up" concept trailer on its YouTube channel as well as on its official social networking sites (SNS) on February 24, 6 PM KST.

In the trailer, which runs for a little over half a minute, Park Ji Hoon begins by stepping into a futuristic-looking space, with what appears to be a scanning platform bound by white lights at the center. He first tests the mysterious structure by putting his hand into the light before totally stepping in. A mix of red-themed visual effects floods through before returning to the young singer-songwriter, apparently being transported out of the mysterious location.

Aside from capturing attention with his visuals - sporting a white long-sleeved shirt with metallic ornaments - the main source of intrigue and curiosity has to be the references to some sort of high-tech scanning and possibly a transport device.

As the track is titled "Call U Up," fans have begun speculating that the anticipated MV might have something to do with Park Ji Hoon coming immediately to the side of whoever might be calling him.

"Call U Up" will feature Park Ji Hoon's impressive vocals paired with Korean singer-songwriter Lee Hi, with production handled by hip-hop artist and record producer Primary. It also marks the third single released under UNIVERSE Music, the series of original music from the newest K-Pop fan interaction platform by Klap and NCSoft, set for a March 2021 release.

The original music series began with IZ*ONE and "D-D-Dance" in January, followed by Rain and soprano Jo Sumi's "Guardians" released this February.
