With Apple‘s annual WWDC conference set to begin today, the tech giant has dropped a new Animoji trailer via its official YouTube channel. Originally released to the Korean market last month, the clip shows the bear emoji singing “Citizen Kane” by Korean band HYUKOH, with back-up from the dragon and chicken.

Speculation has been mounting for a while, with some believing that a series of new characters will be added and the function will be extended to FaceTime and the iPad.

There is also speculation that the new iPhone SE could be announced during WWDC.
