October 28 marked another exciting milestone for ILLIT as they released their highly anticipated remix pack for “Cherish (My Love)”. Expanding on the title track from their second mini-album, I’LL LIKE YOU, the remix pack includes three distinct versions that transform the original song’s emotional tone, offering fresh perspectives that showcase ILLIT’s versatility.
The new remixes feature an eclectic blend of genres, each capturing a different mood. The Deep Dive Remix fuses country and hip-hop, adding depth to the original’s emotional resonance. Meanwhile, the Moonlight Remix channels a house beat, enveloping listeners in the ambiance of a magical night. And for fans looking for something more playful, the Fever Remix introduces jazzy chords and a Jersey club rhythm, delivering an irresistible, danceable vibe.
“ILLIT has taken the charm of ‘Cherish’ to new heights with this remix pack, bringing even more excitement to a song that’s already captured fans’ hearts,” commented a spokesperson from their company, BELIFT LAB. The pack also includes sped-up and slowed-down versions of “Cherish (My Love),” as well as a captivating instrumental for those who want to experience the music in its purest form.
This release follows a record-breaking week for ILLIT’s second mini-album, which sold over 382,621 copies in its first week on Hanteo Chart. The success far surpasses the first-week sales of their debut mini-album, SUPER REAL ME, and speaks to the group’s rapidly growing popularity and evolving artistry. Their comeback on October 21 was celebrated with vibrant appearances on music shows and radio programs, where the group displayed vocal maturity and undeniable stage presence.
ILLIT’s choreography for “Cherish” has also caught the attention of fans and industry professionals alike. Dancer Jay Black praised the intricate moves on his YouTube channel, stating, “ILLIT’s dance moves may look simple, but they are not. The rhythm, groove, and bounce are beautifully complex, and the group executes each step flawlessly.” The choreography includes hand-heart gestures and dance sequences that highlight the emotions of a young girl on the brink of self-discovery, making it a true visual delight.
The members have continued to impress with their expressive performances, capturing fans’ admiration and proving themselves as a formidable force in the K-pop scene. Fans shared their enthusiasm on social media, with comments like, “ILLIT seems to master any song,” and “This is the true ILLIT.” The remix pack not only celebrates the group’s latest hit but reinforces ILLIT’s place in the spotlight, setting them up for an exciting journey ahead.
