K-pop girl group ILLIT of HYBE Labels will be making their comeback to the music scene with a new album in October.

While “Super Real Me” focused on capturing what they called “my true self,” “I’ll Like You” will tell the story of the “self” that becomes deeply immersed in the moment. 

ILLIT will portray their candid charm in  “I’ll Like You” as they encounter a “you” they wish to get closer to, navigate moments of doubt, and ultimately follow their heart to discover their own answers.

“Super Real Me” sold 380,056 copies in the first week of release, based on data from Korea’s Hanteo Chart. 

The album entered the Billboard 200 chart, while the lead single “Magnetic” made history as the first-ever K-pop debut track to enter the Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Official Singles Top 100 charts. 

Recently, “Magnetic” surpassed 400 million streams on Spotify, becoming the fastest K-pop debut track to reach the milestone. 

Pre-orders for “I’ll Like You” started on Sept. 23 with the official release at 6 p.m. KST on Oct. 21. 

ILLIT's members are Yunah, Minju, Moka, Wonhee and Iroha.
