K-pop girl group aespa is turning up the heat with their latest comeback single Dirty Work, now out with a striking music video that blends industrial grit with their unmistakable swagger.
Leaning into a dance-pop sound, Dirty Work pulses with a deep synth bass and sleek, modern melodies, capturing the group’s signature blend of “cool” and “chill” energy. The lyrics deliver a message of fierce loyalty — a promise to get their hands dirty for the sake of their crew.
The music video, filmed on location at the Hyundai Steel Dangjin Steel Mill, pushes aespa’s aesthetic to a new level. Surrounded by towering machinery and backed by a cast of 225 extras, the visuals play up their unique “iron-flavored” concept — fusing raw power with polished performance.
To mark the comeback, aespa has released Dirty Work in three versions: the original, a feature remix with American rapper Flo Milli, and a full English rendition. All versions are now streaming worldwide across major digital platforms.
