”We bring you good news”... Will ITZY be able to overcome the ”Terrifying Seven Years” as they prepare to renew their contract?
Will the group ITZY be able to get through the "Terrifying Seven Years" and successfully renew their contracts? On the afternoon of the 9th, the group held a press conference at the Sofitel Ambassador in Jamsil-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul.
A press conference was held in Seoul to commemorate the release of ITZY's new mini-album, "Girls Will Be Girls."
This year marks ITZY's sixth year as a group. ITZY will be making their first comeback in 2025.
With the release of their new album, they have strengthened their resolve and have incorporated the sound of the name "Us (Uri)" into the album, which sounds even more fulfilling because they are together.
YEJI said, "I was thinking about my new image.
"When we showed the message 'Myself,' we wanted to convey the message 'Us.' I think our fandom, MIDZY, will be happy to see our solidarity and strong friendship."
At the same time, a friend of the group said, "The meaning of the members gets stronger as time goes by. I felt that I relied on them a lot. The team itself is its own unique charm."
Naturally, interest was focused on whether ITZY would renew their contracts. As they are in their sixth year and about to enter their seventh, there were many comments about the possibility of renewing their contracts.
Many idols are unable to overcome the "Terrifying Seven Years" and end up disbanding or splitting up their management offices. Chaeryeong said, "It's already been seven years, so we're not even discussing renewing our contracts.
"I can't believe we're still in discussion. I'm working hard with the company to make arrangements. I'll try to give you good news," he said, appearing cautious with his words.
Finally, ITZY shared their thoughts on joining the girl group comeback race in June.
Many girl groups such as "aespa", "KISS OF LIFE", and "QWER" are making comebacks.
ITZY said, "We're excited to show you our girl crush side. We have a lot of charisma in this song.
I want to be called "Charismatic ITZY" and be called "Charismatic ITZY."
Girls" was released today at 6 p.m.
