It’s been nearly four months since the second trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens hit YouTube. For fans of the series, it has been an excruciating wait as J.J. Abrams and the cast trickle out bits and pieces of information regarding one of the most highly anticipated sequels of the decade, which is why two seconds of new footage is enough to deserve a post of its own.

At some point on Sunday, a new TV spot was uploaded to the official Star Wars Korea YouTube channel. A majority of the clips within the trailer aren’t new, but the very first shot of the massive Imperial army has never been shown before. The soundtrack also hasn’t appeared in any footage prior to this trailer.

We’re reaching, I know, but at this point, we’ll take anything we can get. The cast and crew of The Force Awakens will be present at Disney’s D23 Expo this weekend, but Abrams has explicitly said that we won’t see any new footage until the movie releases later this year. I sincerely hope he was bluffing.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters on December 18th. Watch the new TV spot below:
