On May 11, K-pop girl group ITZY (Yeji, Lia, Ryujin, Chaeryeong, and Yuna) dropped a 6+ minute-long trailer for their upcoming album Girls Will Be Girls. In the trailer, Ryujin, donning a red bob, is a girl who does not have a heartbeat.
Other group members try several attempts to get Ryujin's heart beating again. Yuna tries to make her play sports, Chaeryeong invites her to eat her favorite food, Yeji sings to her, while Lia tries to scare her, but to no avail. However, one day, Ryujin discovers toys under her bed and wakes up dancing, and there is a sign that perhaps her heart is beating again.
Fans were surprised by the duration and content of the trailer. The support flooded from the group's global fans as they anticipated the comeback. One X user wrote:
