According to this, ILLIT will release concept photos for 'GRWM' and 'FREE RIDER' versions today (7th) and on the 14th, respectively. Following the 'PAW PAW' version, which attracted attention with members alongside similar animals, a new visual transformation is anticipated. On the 21st, a highlight medley will allow fans to listen to parts of the album's tracks in advance, further enhancing the comeback atmosphere. Subsequently, content related to the title track 'It's Me' will be released one after another. On the 23rd, a campaign film providing a glimpse into the message and sound of the title track will be released, and on the 24th, concept photos for the 'IT'S ME' version will be unveiled. On the 27th and 28th, two teasers for the title track's music video will be released consecutively, with the long-awaited new song and full music video dropping on the 30th at 6 PM. A special festival commemorating the release of the 4th mini-album is also planned. ILLIT will hold the 'ILLIT Soul Children's Grand Park Festival' on May 5, centered around the title track 'It's Me'. Various experience booths for families and friends will be available, along with performances of ILLIT's new songs to energize the venue. The unique atmosphere of the calendar image is also eye-catching. A single rose casually placed in a plastic bag leaves a sensory impression that is completely different from the uniquely cute and delicate colors ILLIT has shown so far. Anticipation and curiosity are rising about what new looks and music they will present in this new work. The 4th mini-album 'MAMIHLAPINATAPAI' will be released on the 30th of this month. This album contains ILLIT's story of focusing on 'self' amid various emotions that arise as relationships deepen, even enjoying complex feelings. The title track 'It's Me' boldly declares, 'You are exactly my favorite!' while struggling with the definition of a relationship after a first date.
