KPop Demon Hunter's EJAE has some seriously wise relationship advice at the core of her new single "In Another World." The singer/songwriter, who is behind the mega Netflix hit movie's track "Golden," shared with Ryan Seacrest on-air that her surprise new single, dropping tomorrow, stemmed from an "intentional" breakup.

"I wrote [it] around 2, 3 years ago during a session and same thing it was during a personal time. It helped me kind of get through a really hard time. ... It's just about like, you know, during that time I was going through an intentional break -- it was a healthy one. I wanted an intentional break to reassess everything and if we chose to part ways, it was kind of a way to cope with that idea and I realized that when I could accept that maybe in this lifetime -- because of all the baggage or trauma that we both went through and the resentment that was caused by that -- that in this world, we might not be good. But, in another world, maybe we'd be perfect and that mindset helped me let go."

EJAE added it was helpful to have a "death ego" to see there were "infinite possibilities of us."

The songwriter added that kicking off her own solo career also wasn't initially her plan.

"I never thought I would be an artist ... It just happened so organically."

EJAE announced her surprise new single in a sweet note to fans following the "crazy ride" that's been the success of KPop Demon Hunters.
