ILLIT is achieving notable results on local album and music charts with their second Japanese single.

ILLIT, composed of Yunah, Minju, Moka, Wonhee, and Iroha, saw their second Japanese single 'I Got Your Back,' released on the 28th, rise to 3rd place on the Oricon Daily Single Ranking. This proved ILLIT's staying power by consecutively entering the upper ranks of the Oricon chart, following their debut single 'Toki Yo Tomare' (時よ止まれ) released last year.

They are also showing strong performance on music charts. The title track 'I Got Your Back (Feat. JISOO, MOMOKA of HANA)' immediately claimed 1st place on Japan's music site AWA's real-time rising chart upon its release on the 26th, maintaining the top spot for four consecutive days. In addition, it entered major music charts across Line Music, Spotify Japan, and iTunes Japan, demonstrating the group's local popularity. Notably, a total of four tracks, including the title track, 'It's Me,' 'Magnetic,' and the collaboration single 'ICONIC BY MISTAKE' with LE SSERAFIM and KATSEYE, ranked on the Spotify Japan Daily Top Songs chart (as of July 27).

The music video is also generating global buzz. As of July 27, the music video for 'I Got Your Back (Feat. JISOO, MOMOKA of HANA)' ranked 1st in South Korea, 2nd in Japan, and 22nd in the United States on YouTube's 'Daily Trending Music Videos,' making the chart in a total of 29 countries and regions, while securing 6th place on the YouTube Global Chart.

Meanwhile, ILLIT is also ramping up their Japanese broadcast activities. On August 1, they are scheduled to appear on NHK's music program 'Venue101' to reveal the stage for their new song for the first time. Following that, on the 7th, they plan to appear on Nippon Broadcasting System's late-night radio show 'HANA's All Night Nippon X (Cross)' to deliver a special stage performance alongside JISOO and MOMOKA, who participated in the featuring of the title track.
