The group ILLIT confirmed their parents' deep love and became a sea of tears.
ILLIT (Yoona, Minju, Mocha, Wonhee, Iroha) released the twelfth episode of their self-produced content "SUPER ILLIT" titled "ILLIT I Would Give Birth" through the team's official YouTube channel on 3rd.
This episode was themed around the "2025 I Would Give Birth Awards" to find out who the best daughter is. The members drew attention by perfectly recreating their outfits and hairstyles from childhood photos.
The first segment was a situational play with a virtual father. The "mom judging panel" scored based on the play to determine who the best daughter is. Yoona, as the first contestant, did not complain to her father for making tasteless seaweed soup and tried to season it herself, earning the highest score from the "mom judging panel." Wonhee garnered affection by explaining how to use a tablet PC to her father, who received one as a gift, in a way suited for his height.
Iroha, who needed to receive allowance, displayed her cuteness as the youngest by either doing a "mukbang" or dancing to fulfill her father's wishes. Minju received praise for gently declining her father's suggestion for an outfit she didn't like, while Mocha won the hearts of the "mom judging panel" by kindly teaching the choreography of "Cherish (My Love)."
The second segment was "Mom's Heart Golden Bell," where they listened to various situations and wrote appropriate daughter behaviors. ILLIT provided warm and insightful answers to questions like what they would say if "mom said she bought tteokbokki with daughter allowance because she was feeling down," or what they would do if "mom told them to eat, but nothing was prepared when they went out."
The highlight was voice letters recorded by ILLIT's parents. The members were briefly surprised, but soon became emotional upon hearing the heartfelt letters from their parents. Mocha and Iroha, who are active abroad, shed tears of emotion immediately upon hearing their parents' voices.
Finally, when the "mom evaluation panel" gathered to present the certificates, it became a sea of tears once more. When Yoona read the inscription on the certificate stating, "According to all the ILLIT members' parents, everyone says 'it was good that I gave birth to all of you.' The best daughters are all of you," the members were overwhelmed with emotion.
Meanwhile, ILLIT's first Japanese original song "Almond Chocolate," released on Valentine's Day in February, is achieving strong performance on major local music charts with its addictive melody and the members' sweet voices. This song has been selected as the theme song for the upcoming local film "I Don't Like It Just for the Face," which will be released on 7th, raising expectations for increased popularity.
