ITZY, the noted K-pop girl group who are known worldwide for their iconic viral tracks are set to make a comeback as a full group of five including Lia after her long hiatus. ITZY has been confirmed to be gearing up for a full group comeback in October, as has been confirmed by JYP Entertainment. 

On September 4, 2024, the South Korean media outlet Ten Asia reported that ITZY will be making a comeback in October with Lia who has been on hiatus due to her health for the last few months.

A JYP Entertainment representative responded to the report by confirming that ITZY is “preparing for a full group comeback” in October. 

This will mark ITZY’s first comeback in ten months after BORN TO BE released in January earlier this year. Furthermore, it will be a full group comeback with Lia in over a year since KILL MY DOUBT. 

Lia went on hiatus on September 18, 2023, due to health-related issues. JYP Entertainment had previously announced in July this year that Lia’s health was better and she would be resuming activities with ITZY in the coming months

At the time, the agency noted that Lia’s anxiety and tension had “improved” a lot through continuous treatment and rest. They continued that Lia has decided to return as an ITZY member with the girl group’s next album which at the time was said to be released in the second half of the year.

Lia had gone to cheer her members at the BORN TO BE World Tour in Seoul day 2 concert in February and was spotted for the first time during the hiatus.
