Illit will release its fifth EP “Break Even” on Oct. 26, according to agency Belift Lab on Monday.
The group’s last endeavor was its EP “Mamihlapinatapai.” Released in April, it hit the Billboard 200 at No. 26, a career-high for the quintet.
The main track from the mini album, “It’s Me,” made Billboard’s Global 200 at No. 67 and Global excl. US at No. 32. At home, the catchy techno tune also won the group four trophies from television music chart shows, and topped a series of major music charts and ranked No. 2 on Melon’s Top 100.
Before the album release, the group will go live at Inspire Arena in Incheon on Oct. 17-18. The two shows are encore concerts for its seven-city international tour, “Press Start,” which will wrap up in Chiba, Japan, in December.
