With less than a week to go, MAMAMOO's Hwasa has pulled out all the stops for her upcoming mini-album titled 'Maria,' an ode to her baptismal name.

Earlier today, the K-pop singer released a chilling teaser for the upcoming music video of the same name with the words “morte” accompanying it, meaning “death.”

In the 20-second teaser, we see Hwasa lying dead in a bathtub as investigators and reporters take a photo of the crime scene. It was followed by snippets of the singer in a mental institution that may have led to her character's demise.

Prior to the teaser, Hwasa also revealed more information about her solo comeback including the tracklist of her mini-album.

The “Maria” EP will feature a total of seven tracks, including the title song, "Twit," and a new song produced by Block B's Zico titled “Kidding.”

In other news, the South Korean idol would not be joining her team members in the upcoming KCON:TACT 2020 due to an injury.

In a statement released by RBW Entertainment, the 24-year-old singer was preparing for the release of her solo mini album when she “suddenly felt pain her lower back.”

The agency assured fans that it's only a minor injury but will continue to monitor Hwasa's health until she has fully recovered.

Adding, “It was the medical experts' opinion that she needs a period of rest and stability.

“We ask for the understanding of fans who love MAMAMOO and we will do our best to manage our artists' condition so that they can promote in good health.”

MAMAMOO was originally scheduled to perform tomorrow, June 25, as part of the star-studded line-up of the KCON:TACT 2020 taking place from June 20 until June 26.
