Besides announcing the album, ITZY have also shared a lengthy cinematic trailer for ‘Girls Will Be Girls’ ahead of its release. It includes a snippet of the album’s title track being blared from a boombox by a cameo-ing JYP found Park Jin Young. Member Ryujin tells him: “This isn’t the place for spoilers”.
Ryujin sees a doctor, who tells her that her heart isn’t beating. After examining her X-ray scans, the group play tennis, before scenes of them eating at a diner and going on road trips. The trailer’s narrator reads aloud: “At one point, the girl’s heart completely stopped. Absolutely nothing could make it beat again, not even Timothée Chalamet.”
Clocking in at nearly seven minutes, the artistic trailer sees the girls being put in a myriad of strange scenarios, including them dancing on dimly lit streets. Watch the full trailer below.
ITZY have also shared their released schedule leading up to the album’s launch, which includes details of several concept photos, album spoilers, music video teasers and album cover reveals between May 26 and June 9.
The album will be made available to fans on June 9 alongside a new music video.

Back in October, ITZY released their ninth mini-album ‘GOLD’, their new music as a quintet for the first time in over a year, following the return of vocalist Lia from a lengthy health-related hiatus.
The record was led by its title track of the same name and included the promotional B-side ‘Imaginary Friend’, for which the group released a music video shortly after its release. In addition to several new B-sides, ‘GOLD’ also included re-recorded versions of tracks from their January 2024 mini-album ‘Born to Be’, which was largely recorded in Lia’s absence.
