Itzy's interview with Ginza magazine

── JAPAN's First Album has been released. What did you think when you saw the Japanese lyrics of the title track "RINGO"? Also, let us know your favorite part!

It's refreshing because it has a different power than what 𝐘𝐄𝐉𝐈 𝐈𝐓𝐙𝐘 always pursues. I especially love the lyrics “So bring me apples apples apples”! Singing makes me feel fresh.

RYUJIN The theme is clear and the flow from beginning to end is cool. My favorite is YEJI's "The Future is in My Hands." I think this is the killing part of this song.

CHAERYEONG I love that the title “RINGO” is of course based on a fairy tale motif, but it also contains a strong message for people living today! My favorite part is the addictive "Dum Tiki Dum Tiki Tiki Dum Dum" part.

YUNA When I first heard the song, I thought, "Wow, it's powerful!" The chorus “So bring me apple apple apple” is the best no matter how many times I listen to it.

── Is there anything you keep in mind when choreographing or performing that “I want you to look at this!”?

YEJI The key point is a gesture like picking an apple. The movement is so beautiful that once you see it, you won't be able to forget it. ITZY's dance moves are in line with the content of the lyrics, so we are also working hard to refine our expressions so that the message of the song can be conveyed through just dancing.

RYUJIN　An apple-biting choreography that befits the title ``RINGO.'' I would be happy if you could watch the lyrics that match that with me. When I perform, I always try to create a stage that makes me feel strong.

CHAERYEONG　I too move like I'm biting into an apple! The choreography truly symbolizes the title of the song. Please try to imitate it.

YUNA:　After all, I also took a bite of an apple and ate it! The key is to make the shape of the fruit neatly by hand so that it is easy to convey the message. I want you to concentrate on that part.

── How would you describe ITZY in one word?

──Please give a final message to MIDZY and GINZA readers!
