Illit looks back on debut year
'It is 'only' one year thinking of our future that will flourish, but for some reason, I don't want to make light of it,' said Yunah. 'It feels really precious since we could be with Gllit,' the group's official fandom community.
In one single year, the five members have achieved a lot: Their debut single made Billboard's Hot 100 and UK's Official Singles Top 100 in record time and they picked up 13 trophies, including seven rookie awards, at home and abroad.
But many members picked their showcase as the most memorable moment.
'It was so blissful when Gllit shouted our names and chanted for us in one single voice,' recalled Minju.
Their goal for the second year?
'I would love to love to see a dome concert venue filled with lightsticks,' confided Iroha.

Twice rises on Billboard's Hot 100 to new career-high
Twice hit yet another career-high on Billboard's Hot 100 with 'Strategy,' according to the latest chart published on Tuesday in the US. The single has been on the main songs chart for four weeks, climbing up seven spots from the previous week to No. 62 — both new records for the group. The collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion is also the title track of Twice's 14th EP, which was released in December. However, "Strategy" only appeared on the chart months later, after it was played in 'KPop Demon Hunters.' 'Takedown,' another song in the movie's soundtrack sung by Jeongyeon, Jihyo and Chaeyoung, jumped up six spots to No. 60 in its sixth week on the chart. The group heads to Nagoya, Japan, to host performances Saturday and Sunday as part of its ongoing world tour, 'This Is For.'

As the title suggests, "Bite Me" portrays the realization of being bound to a destined partner through blood. It ranked No. 35 on Spotify's Daily Top Songs Global, while the track's music video reached 100 million views on YouTube in record time for the band. Meanwhile, the seven members are set to go live in Los Angeles on Saturday for the final show in the US of its 'Walk the Line' tour.
