ITZY (있지) Yuna filled her first week as a solo debutante meaningfully with support from fellow members and MIDZY, the fandom.
Yuna released her solo debut album Ice Cream and its title track of the same name on Mar. 23. As ITZY's second soloist following Yeji, she showcased her high-sweetness charm through Ice Cream, a work that encapsulates her individuality, heating up fans' hearts at home and abroad.
ITZY's official social media channels uploaded various content such as the Ice Cream jacket and trailer behind the scenes, cheering methods, dance practice, and dance challenges, adding to the viewing enjoyment. In particular, a music video reaction video featuring ITZY's Yeji, Lia, Ryu Jin, and Chaeryeong revealed the members' affection for the youngest member, Yuna. The four members attended Yuna's countdown live as she debuted as a solo artist, visited music shows and pop-up store sites, and presented the Ice Cream challenge, acting as a strong support team.
Buoyed by affectionate support from MIDZY worldwide and ITZY members, Yuna emitted positive energy on the Ice Cream music show stage. Her performance, which complemented the message "this moment that melts sweetly like ice cream, don't miss it and enjoy it to the fullest," captured attention. It drew praise from K-pop fans such as "God Yuna," "a song that matches spring weather and mood well," "cherry blossom beauty," and "I want to go on a picnic while listening to Ice Cream," raising anticipation for her second-week activities.
The Ice Cream music video is also riding a wave of popularity, recently surpassing 10 million views on YouTube. The music video added freshness with unexpected scenes that are hard to imagine upon first listen to the song, and Yuna's facial acting and dance lines are prompting repeat plays.
