The title track, ほしあかり ("Starlight"), which Moonbyul co-wrote, beautifully captures themes of love and eternity, comparing them to light. The song starts with a soft acoustic guitar introduction before building into a rich, emotional blend of band sounds, complementing Moonbyul’s distinctive tone and creating a dreamy, atmospheric experience.
Accompanying the release, the music video presents a visually stunning interpretation of the night sky, featuring Moonbyul in a captivating band performance.
The single also includes the rock ballad Because of You and Is This Love? (Japanese Ver.), a reimagined version of It’s a Story of a Friend of a Friend, the title track from her first full-length repackaged album released in Korea last August.
With Aurora, Moonbyul embarks on a new chapter, solidifying her presence in the Japanese music scene and beyond.
