Anticipation is building as Xdinary Heroes drop the first teaser for their upcoming music video, “Night Before the End.” The rock ballad, which serves as the title track of their highly anticipated fifth mini-album LIVE and FALL, is slated for release on October 14th at 6 PM KST.
The music video teaser, unveiled on October 12th across the band’s official social media platforms, gives fans their first glimpse into the emotionally charged atmosphere of the song. Set against a backdrop of an ominous, deep blue sky, the teaser features the members in contemplative poses, each evoking a sense of intense emotion. The visuals hint at the desolate themes of heartbreak and isolation, aligning perfectly with the song’s narrative.
Joo-yeon, described the song as capturing “the last hour before a meteorite crash” — a metaphor for the overwhelming feeling of a relationship’s final moments. The song portrays the bleak emotions tied to a breakup: dreary, sorrowful, and filled with an aching emptiness.

Throughout the teaser, each member embodies this emotional turmoil. O.de is seen with his eyes shut tightly, perhaps struggling to come to terms with the end. Gun-il's intense gaze captures the raw pain of the moment, while Jung-soo stretches out his arms, as though trying to hold onto something slipping away. Jun Han’s silent demeanor, Gaon’s upward glance, and Joo-yeon’s deep expression all come together to create a powerful, immersive experience for the viewer.
"LIVE and FALL," the group's fifth mini-album, promises a collection of eight tracks that reflect life’s most vulnerable and challenging moments. In addition to “Night Before the End,” fans can expect to hear tracks like "FEELING NICE," "XYMPHONY," and "XH_WORLD_75." The album also includes previously released tracks from their Open ♭eta series, rounding out what is expected to be one of the band's most dynamic releases to date.
With the teaser now out, excitement is reaching a fever pitch. Fans are eager to see how the full music video will unfold, and whether the band’s first-ever rock ballad title track will deliver the heart-wrenching performance promised by the teaser.
Xdinary Heroes' LIVE and FALL will officially drop on October 14th, followed by a three-day concert at Seoul’s Olympic Hall from November 15th to 17th. With six consecutive sold-out shows earlier this year, this next round of concerts is set to draw an even larger crowd, marking a new chapter in the band’s rise as a K-pop super band.
