ILLIT, the rising Korean group, is set to release their first single album NOT CUTE ANYMORE on November 24, marking a new chapter after their June mini-album Bomb. The label Belift Lab, under HYBE, announced the release date, highlighting that this new work explores a more honest self as the world and the individual may not see eye to eye.

NOT CUTE ANYMORE is described as the story of a “not so cute anymore” self, signaling a shift in the group’s narrative after the mini-album era. The project represents a move beyond ILLIT’s previous explorations of personal feeling across their first two mini-albums, Foam and I’LL LIKE YOU, toward a new phase of change.

ILLIT has been active across Korea and Japan this year, with Bomb’s initial sales surpassing their prior records and the group entering the Billboard 200, underscoring their growing global presence. In September, ILLIT made a formal debut in Japan with Toki Yo Tomare, topping major charts such as Oricon and Billboard Japan, and they have continued to appear on local music programs and large-scale festivals, strengthening their rising profile. An encore concert in Seoul’s Olympic Park Olympic Hall is already sold out on the presale day for November 8–9 performances.

Pre-orders for NOT CUTE ANYMORE began at 11:00 a.m. on the 27th.
