Ever wonder what would happen if Mercury was in retrograde and suddenly—two of the world’s most magnetic pop stars decided to record a duet locked in a cosmic spaceship? I can’t say that’s in today’s chart, but maybe the heavens are onto something, because—brace yourself—Jisoo (yes, THAT Jisoo from Blackpink, Queen of chart-bending bops) and Zayn Malik (heartthrob, high note whisperer, ex-One Directioner and perennial Libra enigma) have teamed up for “Eyes Closed.” I’ll confess: When I first glanced at the spectacular promo shot (seriously, who styles Jisoo’s hair for zero-gravity?), I half expected NASA logos or at least an alien cameo . Instead, we get this moody, guitar-laced fever dream that’s less K-pop, more “Aurora Borealis over the Nevada desert at 2 a.m.” You ever feel like the universe pushes star signs together…just to stir up trouble—or, let’s be honest, something unforgettable? Well, against a soundtrack that practically dares Venus to outdo itself in the romantic drama department, Jisoo and Zayn float, soar and belt out lines about falling in love without ever opening their eyes . No spoilers yet—just a gentle nudge from the cosmos, a humorous reminder that maybe, like today’s Scorpio moon suggests, it’s okay to dive into the unknown (or shipboard karaoke night) and let your senses do the steering . Still curious how this celestial crossover sounds? LEARN MORE
Jisoo and Zayn Malik joined forces for a new duet, “Eyes Closed.”
The single, released today via Warner Records, is a bit of a departure from Jisoo’s previous solo releases, featuring a prominent use of acoustic guitar throughout. It also marks the first official English-language single for the 30-year-old K-pop star and actor; she released a special video for her English-language B-side “Your Love” over the summer.
In the “Eyes Closed” music video, Jisoo and Malik find themselves in space, belting out and singing with each other in a spaceship. “We should fall in love with our eyes closed / Better if we keep it where we don’t know / The beds we been in, the names and the faces of who we were with,” the pair sing together in the song’s chorus. The single also marks a global girl group and boy band mashup, with Jisoo being a member of the biggest girl group in the world, Blackpink, and Malik being a former member of the record-breaking boy band, One Direction.
Jisoo is in the midst of Blackpink’s Deadline world tour, which kicked off with the release of the four-member outfit’s first group song in nearly three years, “Jump.” Malik, meanwhile, is preparing for a Las Vegas residency at the top of 2026.
The “Earthquake” singer found her solo home in Warner Records earlier this year, which included her debut solo EP, Amortage, released in February. Jisoo’s fellow Blackpink group members – Jennie, Lisa and Rosé — are all signed to different labels as solo artists but remain with their Korean label, YG Entertainment, as a group. Jisoo, who has been pursing a career in acting alongside her solo career, is slated to star in an upcoming Netflix K-Drama, Boyfriend on Demand, a romantic-drama series about an overworked young woman who turns to a virtual reality dating program to find an escape.
Earlier this week, it was announced that Malik and his fellow former One Direction bandmate, Louis Tomlinson, would be reuniting for a Netflix road trip series. The 3-part documentary series will follow the two singers as they reconnect during American travels.
