Kingnet released 'RISE AGAIN', the first original soundtrack (OST) for its new MMORPG 'Yulgang: Next', on the 2nd.

The music video for the OST was released first on the official YouTube channel at 9:00 AM on the 2nd, and the track will be available on major domestic music platforms, including Melon and Genie, at 6:00 PM on the same day.

'RISE AGAIN' is a crossover track that begins with a restrained piano melody and builds with rock sounds and orchestral arrangements as it progresses. Its grand sound and dramatic development capture the martial arts spirit of the original work, reflecting the convictions and journey of the two protagonists, Han Bi-kwang and Dam Hwa-rin, as they head to the battlefield to face their destiny.

The lyrics and composition were handled by the producer group HAP and Kang Min, who have worked with major domestic artists such as Stray Kids, Red Velvet, and Son Tae-jin.

Vocals were provided by influencer and YouTuber Park Da-hye, known as the '200-million-view high-note goddess.' As a fan of the original 'Yulgang' series, Park participated as the first vocalist for 'Yulgang: Next', using her clear, elegant tone and explosive vocal power to delicately express the game's unique martial arts atmosphere and narrative.

The accompanying music video focuses on key characters from the game, including Han Bi-kwang and Dam Hwa-rin, alongside intense combat scenes. It depicts the protagonists' journey against fate set to the grand sound of 'RISE AGAIN', capturing the game's martial arts worldview and aesthetic in a single video.

'Yulgang: Next' is currently accepting pre-registrations via its official website, and the company plans to release various content sequentially ahead of the official launch. More detailed information can be found on the official Naver community.
