ITZY将于1月8日发布全新迷你专辑 《BORN TO BE》及主打曲《UNTOUCHABLE》。
ITZY在最近公布的2023年年末榜单中以前作《CHESHIRE》和《KILL MY DOUBT》登上'Top Current Album Sales'榜,而团体的热门曲目《WANNABE》也获得了美国唱片业协会(RIAA)的黄金认证,展现了超高人气,提高了全球范围内活跃活动的期待感。以炫目的青春能量华丽装饰了2023年的ITZY,此次携新作品 《BORN TO BE》 将自身特色发挥到极致,为2024年开端增添了无限活力。
作为2024年首次回归作品的《BORN TO BE》,承载着“手握自由,秉承心意,在广阔世界中前行”的含义。从出道起就一直传达的组合核心信念“尊重并热爱站在世界中心的自我”的信息得以扩展,讲述了更具挑战性和进取精神的故事,大胆地表达自我并超越极限。
真实而自由,充满力量的ITZY将带来崭新的故事,视觉概念完美融入其中。成员们站在染成鲜红的沙丘上,或者陷入蔚蓝深邃的洞穴中,展现出一种野性、大胆,同时又保持着克制、神秘感的迷人魅力。充满气势的形象,能够看穿对方的眼神,不仅展现了ITZY外在的强大,更象征着内在的坚韧,令观众为之倾倒。
主打曲《UNTOUCHABLE》从歌名起就传达出了“没有人能阻止我”的坚定信念。歌词表达了“我不会轻易崩溃,所以不要害怕,现在就朝着自己的心之所向前行”的信息,配合着充满张力的音乐节奏,作为中速的EDM类型舞曲,强烈的副歌搭配着吉他演奏,“I'm untouchable,一起都阻挡不了我,既然开始了就跟着flow, just going on and on”等歌词进一步增强了歌曲的力量。曾创作出《KILL MY DOUBT》中《None of My Business》、TWICE Nayeon的solo曲《POP!》、以及aespa《Drama》和《Spicy》等作品的作词家Bang Hye Hyun担任此次词作的同时,与Jungkook、Red Velvet、Tomorrow X Together合作的Maria Marcus等人也参与了创作。
MV中,ITZY在机器人军团之间跳舞的样子展现出了"谁也阻挡不了我们"的强烈自信。依照"不管阻止我的人是谁,对我来说都毫无意义"的歌词,成员们通过交叉着手牵手的双人编舞,传达出共同克服这世界上所有困难的深意。此外,本次编舞由曾经担任《Not Shy》、《In the morning》编舞制作的全球知名舞蹈家Kiel Tutin和2022年Mnet 'Street Dance Girls Fighter'冠军队伍'Turns'中的Song HeeSoo共同创作,'舞蹈表现力最强者' ITZY所呈现的主打曲表演进一步体现了组合自身在舞蹈方面不可忽视的存在感。伴随着节奏既体现强烈感的同时又柔美流畅地展现整体动作,给观众带来了极致的吸引力和沉浸感。
新专辑《BORN TO BE》包含了以主打曲《UNTOUCHABLE》为首,'BORN TO BE', 'Mr. Vampire', 'Dynamite', 'Crown On My Head (礼志)', 'Blossom (LIA)', 'Run Away (留真)', 'Mine (彩领)', 'Yet, but (有娜)', 'Escalator'在内的共十首歌曲。成员们首次参与了个人SOLO曲的词曲创作,展现了自身积累的音乐实力。此外,包括Sim EunJi、Lee WooMin(collapsedone)、GALACTIKA *、SELAH、MRCH在内的优秀作曲家们也参与其中,为ITZY的新专辑注入更多活力,诞生了全新的高质量专辑。
而且此次是ITZY出道以来,首次将成员个人SOLO曲加入专辑中,呈现出了历代级track list,瞄准2024上半年进行的大规模宣传活动,令粉丝更加开心。除了主打曲《UNTOUCHABLE》,正式开启专辑活动的先公开曲目《BORN TO BE》,收录曲《Mr. Vampire》三首歌曲外,加上成员solo曲,一共准备了8支视频。由K-pop代表编舞师Choi YoungJun指导的《BORN TO BE》大型团体舞蹈表演也引发了热烈反响,而《Mr. Vampire》展现了ITZY与'Turns'Song HeeSoo的强大协同效应,充满了新潮感。而凸显各个成员鲜明个性的solo曲目,对于成员自身以及粉丝来说都极具特殊意义。
ITZY计划在2023年2月24日和25日在首尔松坡区的蚕室室内体育馆举办单独演唱会,并以此拉开第二次世界巡回演唱会“ITZY THE 2ND WORLD TOUR ”的序幕。2022年8月展开的首次世界巡演“CHECKMATE”涵盖了包括在美国8个城市的北美巡演,以及在菲律宾马尼拉、新加坡、印度尼西亚雅加达、日本千叶、中国台湾台北、中国香港和泰国曼谷等亚洲7个地区的演出,并达成了全部售罄的记录。而在即将到来的2024年更大规模的全新世巡中,ITZY将会继续发挥其舞台匠人的实力,展现除代表曲之外,痛快满足粉丝愿望的收录曲舞台,进一步提高组合的全球人气。
2024年1月8日,备受全世界K-POP粉丝关注和期待的“Hot & Wild”组合ITZY即将华丽登场。

3. Mr. Vampire
“在我心中清晰地留下痕迹,这显然是属于你的。” 巧妙地将在感受到爱情时脸上涌现生机的样子比喻为从深沉的睡梦中苏醒的吸血鬼。基于HipHop音乐的元素,以口哨声和柔和的钢琴旋律打造出一种奇妙的氛围,具有迷人的吸引力。

4. Dynamite
"寻找自己原本的样子,引爆内在潜在力的歌词触动着聆听者的心。一旦点燃就会像无法控制的'Dynamite'一样,让我们与ITZY一起点燃从未向别人展示过的热情吧!以迈阿密bass和HipHop类型为基础,独特的主导音和沉重的贝斯,加上ITZY成员清爽的的声线令歌曲的愉快氛围加倍。"

5. Crown On My Head (예지)
从代表着ITZY的关键词'Crown'和'Queen'中获得灵感,虽然女王戴上皇冠的形象看起来很美丽,但其实为了戴上这顶皇冠,付出了很多不为人知的努力。即便皇冠的重量难以承受,但礼志仍然决心会以坚定的信念和坚强的信仰,开拓自己的道路并继续前行。

6. Blossom (리아)
以独特的电音为特征的PB R&B类型歌曲,梦幻般的氛围和LIA独特的魅力嗓音相结合,形成强大的协同效应。即使展现出尚未完全开放的花蕾,也希望真正的我,作为存在本身能够被接受。将这种心情比喻为"稍晚盛开的花"。

7. Run Away (류진)
整首曲子包含让人联想到蓝调摇滚类型的电子吉他声,是一首让人可以享受多种音调来回变化时所带来的乐趣的现代摇滚类型曲目。留真对没有勇气提出分手的对方说"我会扮演反派的角色,从我身边逃跑吧"的歌词,虽然敢于挑战的勇气很重要,但懂得适时放下的勇气也很重要。

8. Mine (채령)
Groovy的鬼步舞节奏、梦幻般的吉他演奏音、彩领独特的嗓音都让人为之倾倒。向尽管试图隐藏,但无法完全掩饰对我的心意的对方,坦率地表达出自己的心意,希望对方也同样可以表现出来的心情,用直观的关键词'Mine'表达出来。

9. Yet, but (유나)
利用"Diamond"和"Yet,but"对立的表达方式,表现了虽然尚未完成,但随着时间流逝会变得完美耀眼,并且存在本身就已经光芒四射,是一首给予希望和勇气的歌曲。强烈的节奏配上紧张重复的吉他旋律和清新的合成器声音,给人带来了一种特殊的听觉体验。

10. Escalator
是一首包含很多独特而华丽的效果音,充满魅力的Hyperpop类型歌曲。将ITZY向着更高目标去挑战奔跑的样貌比作 “Escalator”,即使可能面临失败,也会以此作为垫脚石,永不放弃继续前行,升华了无限可能性和充满自信感的主题。
