BLACKPINK’s Jisoo just dropped the teaser for her unexpected duet with former One Direction member Zayn Malik—and fans can’t get enough. Released on Thursday October 9, 2025, the “Eyes Closed” teaser confirmed the track’s full release for tomorrow at 1 PM KST.
This marks Jisoo’s first-ever official collaboration with a male artist, instantly igniting global buzz. It all started on October 6th, when Jisoo posted a cryptic teaser image—her back turned, a shadowy figure behind her, and the phrase “a duet is near.”
A second post revealed more of the mystery man, teasing, “Two voices, one song. Coming soon.” The mystery sent social media into overdrive, culminating in the latest reveal that her duet partner was none other than Zayn Malik.
Following the teaser’s release, “Eyes Closed” racked up over 60,000 pre-saves on China’s QQ Music, while Zayn’s announcement tweet topped 26 million views. The Warner Records video teaser pulled in 145,000 likes within hours.
Fans couldn’t hide their excitement: “I still can’t believe this duet is real.” “Their voices blend so perfectly. Jisoo’s first collab being with Zayn is just iconic.” “Visuals, vocals, vibe — everything about this screams perfection.
Jisoo × Zayn… this is history.” Their connection had been brewing—Zayn attended BLACKPINK’s New York concert in July 2025 with his daughter Khai and later posted photos from the show.
Studio snapshots later fueled rumors that have now been confirmed. “Eyes Closed” is Jisoo’s first release since her February solo EP Amortage, which featured “Earthquake,” “Your Love,” and “Hugs & Kisses.”
She co-wrote the new track with global hitmakers Kiddo A, Alex Hope, Isaiah Tejada, Mikky Ekko, Dark Waves, Stefan Johnson, and Jordan K Johnson — further cementing her evolution as a true singer-songwriter.
