ILLIT Drops Sweet Preview of Japanese Movie Theme Song 'Almond Chocolate'

ILLIT has unveiled a sneak peek of their Japanese original song 'Almond Chocolate', destined to be the theme song for an upcoming Japanese movie. The group shared a video on TikTok, where each member sings part of the song during a video call, radiating excitement and love that matches the song's heartfelt message towards a loved one. The adorable melody and the members' sweet visuals have already captured the hearts of fans.

This track was crafted with the collaboration of Nakajin, the leader of the Japanese band SEKAI NO OWARI, and Pdogg, the producer behind numerous hit songs like 'Spring Day' and 'Dynamite', ensuring a high-quality production. 'Almond Chocolate' is specially created for the movie 'I Don't Like You Just Because You're Handsome', based on a popular manga of the same name that has sold over 2 million copies and enjoys overwhelming support among women in their 20s.

As ILLIT, a rising icon among Generation Z, joins the project with this theme song, positive synergy is anticipated. Their first Japanese original song is highly awaited by local fans, especially given ILLIT's impressive achievements in Japan even before their official debut. The full audio of 'Almond Chocolate' will be released on February 14, perfectly timed for Valentine's Day and ahead of the movie's premiere on March 7, promising to be a new seasonal hit.
