ILLIT will drop their new album 'Mamihlapinatapai' (MAMIHLAPINATAPAI) on April 30.
On March 14–15, ILLIT kicked off their first tour with the 'ILLIT LIVE 'PRESS START'' concert at Ticketlink Live Arena (formerly the Handball Gymnasium) in Songpa-gu, Seoul.
Delivering rock-solid live vocals and sharp performance throughout the show, ILLIT closed the final night by announcing their comeback — sending fans into a frenzy.
The album title 'Mamihlapinatapai' comes from the language of the South American Yaghan people and is listed in Guinness World Records as a word with an exceptionally long meaning and notoriously difficult to translate. It refers to a subtle yet urgent exchange of glances between two people, each hoping the other will volunteer to initiate something both want but neither wants to do themselves.
The new release’s title track is reportedly 'It's Me,' raising expectations about the music and concept ILLIT will unveil.
Meanwhile, ILLIT will continue meeting fans on tour in Japan: June 13–14 in Aichi, 20–21 in Osaka, and 29–30 in Fukuoka.
