The global K-pop group ILLIT (YoonA, Minju, Moka, Wonhee, Iroha) is stealing hearts with their unpredictable and endless charm. On October 22, Vogue Korea dropped the digital cover and photos for its November issue, featuring the girls of ILLIT.

The photoshoot, taken in Paris during Fashion Week, captures ILLIT’s transformation into ‘mischievous princesses’ with stunning backdrops. Some of the photos show the members striking bold poses with fierce gazes, while others highlight their free-spirited and elegant side, set against a vintage background.

The unit shots, where the group was split into two teams, left a strong impression as well. YoonA, Minju, and Iroha gave off a dreamy yet chic vibe, while Moka and Wonhee showed off their cute and lovely chemistry.

In addition to the photoshoot, ILLIT teamed up with Vogue Korea and Apple Music for a special project. They launched the ‘Vogue X ILLIT Music Project’ playlist on October 19, where each member personally chose songs they cherish. The playlist also features the photos from their Vogue shoot as the cover image.

Meanwhile, ILLIT made their highly anticipated comeback on October 21 with their second mini-album, I’LL LIKE YOU. The music video for their title track Cherish (My Love) hit over 10 million views in just 16 hours, breaking their previous record.

The album sold around 300,000 copies on the first day and all the tracks landed on Melon’s ‘Hot 100,’ showing ILLIT’s growing power in both album sales and streaming charts.

IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint!” she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
