ITZY’s Chaeryeong is preparing to begin a new chapter in her music career with her first solo mini-album, Lovesick. JYP Entertainment unveiled the album’s official trailer, track list and promotional schedule on October 19, giving fans their first glimpse of the concept behind the singer’s highly anticipated solo debut.

The four-track release will arrive on November 9, 2026, alongside a music video for its title track, also called Lovesick. The announcement has generated excitement among MIDZY, ITZY’s official fandom, as Chaeryeong steps into the spotlight as a solo artist after years of performing with the group.

Chaeryeong’s Lovesick Trailer Reveals An Intriguing Story

The official trailer introduces a playful, storybook-inspired concept centred on Chaeryeong and an unexpected change in her personality. The video portrays her as someone who remains remarkably unfazed by almost everything happening around her. The narration describes several unusual situations that fail to impress her, including a birthday cake, a phone catching fire, winning the lottery, noisy upstairs neighbours and a floor covered in foam. Despite these extraordinary events, she appears indifferent.

That changes when she encounters something that captures her attention and makes her fall in love. The trailer deliberately keeps the object of her affection mysterious, encouraging viewers to speculate about the story behind the album’s title. The unusual premise gives Lovesick a distinctive identity before the release of any full-length songs. Its combination of quirky storytelling and romantic intrigue also hints at a different side of Chaeryeong, allowing her to explore a concept beyond ITZY’s familiar group performances.

Lovesick Track List Features 4 Songs

JYP Entertainment has confirmed that Chaeryeong’s debut mini-album will feature four tracks. The release combines its main title song with three additional songs that will introduce listeners to her musical direction as a solo performer.

The complete track list is:

  1. Lovesick — Title track
  2. Moonlit Club
  3. Scent
  4. Favorite Reason

One notable detail is Chaeryeong’s participation in writing the lyrics for Favorite Reason, the album’s fourth track. Her involvement gives fans another reason to look forward to the release, as it offers a glimpse into her creative contribution beyond singing and dancing.

Although the agency has not revealed the full musical details of every song, the titles suggest that the album will explore a range of moods connected to its central theme. The title track will also receive an official music video on release day. Fans can expect further details about the sound, choreography and visual direction as the promotional campaign progresses.

Chaeryeong’s Solo Debut Schedule And Release Date

Chaeryeong’s first solo mini-album and the music video for Lovesick are scheduled to be released on November 9 at 6 p.m. Korean Standard Time. Before the launch, JYP Entertainment plans to roll out several promotional materials, including concept photographs, music video stills, a music video teaser and an album preview. These releases will gradually reveal more about the album’s visual identity and musical content.

Chaeryeong will also connect with fans through a countdown livestream one hour before the album’s release, giving MIDZY an opportunity to join her ahead of the official launch. For fans in the United States, the physical album is scheduled for release on November 13 at 2 p.m. Eastern Time. An English version of the title track Lovesick is also planned for release that day. The staggered rollout gives international listeners additional content to anticipate after the Korean release.

Chaeryeong Becomes ITZY’s Third Member To Release Solo Music

Chaeryeong debuted as a member of ITZY in 2019 and has since become known for her precise dancing, expressive performances and stable live vocals. The group established its identity with songs such as Dalla Dalla and Wannabe, building a substantial international following.

With Lovesick, Chaeryeong will become the third ITZY member to release solo music. Yeji launched her solo career with the mini-album Air in March 2025, while Yuna released Ice Cream in March 2026. Her solo debut provides an opportunity to showcase her individual musical identity while remaining part of the group. The upcoming release also gives fans a chance to see how her artistic personality translates into a project built around her alone.

Final Take

ITZY’s Chaeryeong is set to make her solo debut with Lovesick on November 9, 2026. With a four-track mini-album, a mysterious trailer, personal songwriting involvement on Favorite Reason and an English version of the title track planned for November 13, the release promises an exciting new phase in her career. Fans can look forward to more teasers as the countdown to her solo debut continues.
