With the release of “NOW IM MUCH BETTER,” SORE doesn’t just drop another track, they unveil a soul-document in motion. This is not merely a song accompanied by visuals. It’s a music video that dares to speak where words fall short, giving life to healing through dim-lit streets, quiet subway tunnels, and the aching stillness between beats.
Filmed in Seoul after a personal heartbreak, the video is an introspective wander through emotional recovery: no drama, no excess. Just SORE, often alone, drifting through the city’s nighttime calm and neon breath. There are no choreographed breakdowns, no staged catharsis: only honest movement. The grainy, shadow-tinted palette of the video resists glamour, capturing the raw moments of solitude and reflection that follow emotional collapse. It’s not performance; it’s presence.
Visually, the camera lingers. SORE leans against tiled subway walls, rides escalators, and pauses mid-crosswalk as traffic lights flicker against the lens. You feel time stretch. And in that slowness, something happens: healing begins to take shape. There’s something hauntingly powerful in how these mundane scenes accumulate into emotional texture, like scars forming skin.
The track itself, already available on all platforms, is a slow-burning blend of alternative rock, gothic overtones, and post-punk pulse. But it’s in the video where the emotion finds its body. The song’s shimmering synths and aching vocals dissolve into the Seoul skyline, and suddenly it’s not just SORE’s story; it’s anyone’s who’s ever been broken, left, or lost.
“NOW IM MUCH BETTER” doesn’t really need glossy edits. No overexposed light leaks. Just one artist, grieving and growing in real time. It’s a visual letter to the self: You were hurting, but you kept going.
And that’s what makes this video unique. It doesn’t show strength as fire, but as motion. As breath. As the simple act of walking forward, even when it still hurts to move.
So if you’re feeling fractured, this one’s for you. Not to fix you, but to remind you that survival is its own kind of masterpiece!
