The group ITZY held a countdown live for their new mini album "TUNNEL VISION" and celebrated the comeback with fans.

ITZY released their new album "TUNNEL VISION" and the title track of the same name at 6 p.m. on the 10th. At 5 p.m., they held a countdown live on the JYP Entertainment official YouTube channel and communicated with global MIDZY (fandom name: MIDZY).

Yeji, Lia, Ryujin, Chaeryeong and Yuna said on the countdown live, "It's a comeback after five months. 'TUNNEL VISION' is an album we prepared while thinking we hope it can lead to a tour. I think both we and MIDZY share the feelings of excitement and anticipation." They continued, "It's been almost three years since we've toured as a complete group, and thinking about meeting fans makes us want the world tour to start soon. Since it's the first full-group tour in a long time, I think you'll see stages that feel very closely knit."

ITZY described their new album "TUNNEL VISION" as "an album about finding the real me," and introduced the title track of the same name as "having a hip-hop beat with damping that makes you ride the rhythm even when you're sitting still. We hope MIDZY will immerse themselves in it." They then entertained fans with mini games, behind-the-scenes stories and an album unboxing among other plentiful content. The five members concluded the countdown live by saying, "Thank you so much for waiting. We prepared the stage, performances and album tracks with fans in mind. We hope it becomes a precious gift for MIDZY and that our sincerity reaches them."

ITZY's new album traces the process of finding one's own light and identity through six tracks, starting with track 1 "Focus," followed by the title song "TUNNEL VISION," "DYT," "Flicker," "Nocturne," and "8-BIT HEART." As of 9 a.m. on the 11th, the new release reached number one on the iTunes top album charts in nine regions, including Malaysia and New Zealand. The music video filmed in Prague, Czech Republic, stimulates repeated viewing with its colorful visual effects, the members' unreal visuals and three-dimensional directing. The "TUNNEL VISION" music video proved the hot comeback enthusiasm by ranking number one on YouTube music video trending worldwide on the morning of the 11th.

ITZY continues the momentum with abundant album promotions. From the 11th to the 17th, they will open a "TUNNEL VISION" pop-up store in Seongdong District, Seoul, for a week and offer various entertainments.
