IU TEASER PHOTOS RELEASED FOR "MODERN TIMES"

IU signals her return with 'Modern Times' with two teaser images

After the reveal of her comeback date, IU has decided to kick off the teasing process early as she's already here with the first of her teasers!

Like the picture says, her long-awaited album will be titled 'Modern Times'. In addition to the teaser photos, it's said that a 'map' of some sort will also be released to hint at some of the songs included on the album.

It has been rumored for a while now that rather than the cute 'nation's little sister' image she's had for a while, she'll be taking a mature turn with this new release, and it definitely seems that way from the strong black and white photos revealed.

3rd full length album 'Modern Times' will include tracks of various genres ranging from jazz, Bossa Nova, to swing and Latin pop.

With the teasers starting early, we still have a lot of time to kill until October 7th, but there are bound to be more exciting images and clips in store for us until then, so keep your eyes open!
