I love Ok-pop virtually as a lot as I really like League of Legends, so after I heard that the 2023 World Championships can be going down in Seoul this 12 months, my coronary heart skipped a beat. Did this herald the long-awaited return of KDA, League’s fan-favorite Ok-Pop band? The sting of my seat was properly and really worn away.
Sadly, the reply to that query is not any – behemoth NewJeans will really take heart stage at League of Legends Worlds 2023. Whereas they might lend their voices to Ahri, Akali, Evelynn, and Kai’Sa in spirit, on the floor it appears just like the MOBA‘s idol queens received’t be returning this time round. The place they’re dominating, although, is TikTok, the place a fanmade KDA anthem has us lamenting what may have been.
Titled “All Eyes On Us’” a la Jisoo’s “All Eyes on Me,” the observe is the brainchild of Simon Rosenfeld (the creator of final 12 months’s viral observe ‘Heroes‘) and TikTok artist Myla, with lyrics from multi-platinum musician Linda Quero.
Whereas we’ve solely seen a teaser thus far (the total track drops immediately) All Eyes On Us has already accrued over 200k views on TikTok, sitting at 200 feedback, too.
“Out of nowhere one in all our posts began to explode,” the workforce tells PCGamesN. “We felt excited, but additionally relieved. We had been engaged on this track since late 2022 and concerned far more folks than we often do, and it felt like our efforts have been being rewarded and that the track really resonated with different KDA followers.”

Channeling a number of the thumping bass of League’s different band, True Harm, with the playful, melodic vocals of Ahri (or G-IDLE’s Miyeon), there’s lots to like about All Eyes On Us. “‘All Out’ has been one in all our go-to references in terms of high quality of sound design and vocal manufacturing in lots of our tasks,” they inform me, and you may hear its essence interwoven via the workforce’s newest endeavour.
Whereas I am keen on NewJeans, part of me does lament not having a KDA-focused Worlds this 12 months. One among my first ever interviews on this business was for KDA All Out and the discharge of Seraphine, so the group actually does have a particular place in my coronary heart.
I’m not ruling their involvement out completely, although, merely given that we obtained a shock banger from Jackson Wang final 12 months forward of Lil Nas X’s now-iconic Star Walkin’, so who is aware of what’s in retailer for this 2023. I’m manifesting KDA Code Pink okay, let me have my second.
For those who’re trying ahead to Worlds, although, then I recommend taking a look at our checklist of all the upcoming League of Legends skins – Worlds 2023 Renekton is trying fireplace. We even have a rundown of League of Legends patch 13.19 – the one the event shall be performed on – so as to try to guess which champ’s getting permabanned.
