[Sports Today reporter Kim Tae-hyung] ITZY’s Yuna hit the ground running in her first week as a solo artist, buoyed by enthusiastic support from her bandmates and the fandom MIDZY.
On the 23rd, Yuna released her solo debut album ‘Ice Cream’ along with the title track of the same name. As ITZY’s second soloist after Yeji, she leaned into a sugary, effervescent persona with ‘Ice Cream,’ captivating fans both in Korea and abroad.
ITZY’s official social media channels have been rolling out a steady stream of content—jacket photos and behind-the-scenes trailer clips, fan-chant guides, choreography rehearsals and a dance challenge—that kept viewers engaged. A music-video reaction featuring Yeji, Lia, Ryujin and Chaeryeong highlighted the members’ clear affection for their youngest, Yuna. The four also turned out for Yuna’s solo countdown live, attended music shows and a pop-up store, and joined the ‘Ice Cream’ challenge as vocal supporters.
Backed by heartfelt support from MIDZY worldwide and her ITZY bandmates, Yuna radiated positive energy on music-show stages. Her performance, aligned with the song’s message—”This moment melts sweetly like ice cream; don’t miss it, enjoy it fully”—commanded attention. Fans praised her with comments like “God Yuna,” noted that the track perfectly matches spring’s mood, complimented her “cherry-blossom” looks, and said it made them want to go on a picnic while listening—all of which have raised anticipation for her second week of promotions.
The ‘Ice Cream’ music video is also building momentum, recently surpassing 10 million views on YouTube. The video adds freshness with unexpected, visually striking scenes that aren’t immediately imagined from the track alone, while Yuna’s expressive acting and clean dance lines invite repeated viewing.
