Continuing to encapsulate messages of freedom and self-love, core identities of the group since their 2019 debut, the album also marks a monumental moment for ITZY, as it features solo songs from each member for the first time in the groups’ history. Each member contributed to the composition of each solo track, showcasing their musical competency, and asserting themselves as bold creative forces.
