On the 23rd, ILLIT posted a promotional calendar video for their 2nd mini album 'I'LLL LIKE YOU' on the HYBE LABELS YouTube channel. The video is lively and vibrant, featuring a colorful and cute logo motion that stimulates the imagination. Following this, the schedule for all content was displayed, attracting fans' attention. According to the promotion calendar, ILLIT will start with a brand film, followed by the release of three versions of concept photos and films titled 'WITH', 'TO', and 'BETWEEN' on the 30th and October 1-2, unveiling the concept of the 2nd mini album. The brand film released on the 24th conveyed the stories of the five members, each with their own personality, in their real voices. In the video, members talk on the phone while navigating through unrealistically large tree roots, introducing themselves one by one. Yuna shares her unique stress relief method while taking a shower, and Wonhee enjoys a sense of freedom riding an eagle and going to Mars. Minju, who loves horror movies, shows a hint of madness, while Iroha demonstrates inner strength through martial arts. Mocha confesses her envy of cats living at their own pace, bringing smiles to viewers. Each member expresses their thoughts candidly and amusingly. ILLIT also demonstrated a strong bond among themselves, expressing heartfelt sentiments like 'ILLIT is a second family' and 'ILLIT is like honey, never leaving each other.' Their sincere stories and sensory visual beauty received a warm response from fans upon release. On October 7, the track list and track video will be available, and on the 13th, a highlight medley will provide a glimpse of the album's overall atmosphere. Following that, teaser videos for the title track's music video will be released on the 18th and 20th, raising fans' expectations. ILLIT's 2nd mini album 'I'LLL LIKE YOU' and the title track's music video will be released simultaneously worldwide on November 21 at 6 PM. This album, currently available for pre-order, will be released in a regular edition and a GLLIT edition, with the retro camera-shaped GLLIT edition's outer box attracting attention. It includes various items packed with ILLIT's unique cute and charming appeal, such as keychains, photo sets, lyric cards, photo cards, stickers, and CDs, stimulating collectors' desires. 'I'LL LIKE YOU' is ILLIT's new album, released about seven months after their 1st mini album 'SUPER REAL ME', depicting the second story of 'me' that draws you in at the moment. Expectations are rising for what kind of music ILLIT, who sparked a 'Magnetic' boom upon debut, will showcase.
