Illit achieved a career high in first-week sales with their new release. Illit released their second mini album, "I’LL LIKE YOU," on the 21st. According to Hanteo Chart, 382,621 copies were sold in the first week of release. This is their personal best record. Their debut album, "SUPER REAL ME," sold approximately 380,000 copies during the same period, representing a slight increase compared to their previous work.

They did not achieve the half-million-seller mark for first-week sales. Although pre-orders for this album were 550,000 (as of the 17th), actual sales during the tracking period did not meet this target. "I’LL LIKE YOU" is an album that captures the mindset of believing in one's feelings and directly pursuing "you." It consists of a total of five tracks, including the title track "Cherish."

"Cherish" is a song that reflects the emotions of teenagers, expressing how precious one's feelings of liking someone are. The addictive chorus and the harmonious voices of the members complement each other. The performance also gained popularity. The "Magnetic Heart" dance elevated them to the ranks of short-form content giants, transforming the hand gestures from their debut song "Magnetic" into a heart shape, providing enjoyment in imitation.

Meanwhile, Illit will release a remix of "Cherish" on the 28th.
