idntt Returns with 20-Member Unit 'itsnotover' on the Journey to Full 24-Member Lineup

Super-sized boy group idntt has returned with a 20-member lineup, unveiling their third unit, 'itsnotover'. They released their third mini-album, 'itsnotover', featuring the title track 'Kids Return', continuing their journey toward a complete 24-member group.

idntt held a showcase for the new album release at Blue Square Our WON Banking Hall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, on the 13th. The group expressed high expectations, stating, "We prepared to be even more stylish and impactful after the long wait." 'itsnotover' is an album that births the unit of the same name, while also inheriting and expanding the narrative of idntt forged through previous units 'unevermet' and 'yesweare'. It contains a commitment to deliver a more dynamic and spectrally broad musical world.

The new album's title track, 'Kids Return', is a song carrying the message that the boys have returned with strength, inheriting idntt's street hip-hop DNA. It implements an upgraded sound with unique tension created by free-spirited grooves and unexpected developments.

Previously, Kim Juhoo had temporarily suspended activities due to health issues but has returned to health thanks to the support of fans and members. The final number of members in idntt is 24. Having previously released unit albums with 7 and 15 members to leave a mark on K-pop fans, this time 20 members are participating in the activities. When will we see the complete group including the remaining 4 members? Kim Eunsung said, "I wanted to leave an expectation that it's not over, like the team name. After this activity, 4 members including id3 are scheduled to be revealed additionally," previewing idntt's complete lineup.

Currently, there is no 24-member boy group in the K-pop market. While there are clear advantages to a large group as the number of members increases with each new album, concerns about part distribution and reduced screen time also follow. Regarding this, Nam Jiwoon stated, "It's true that our parts have decreased, but doesn't it mean there are 19 members supporting us from behind when we have our parts? It's reassuring. Also, since we can upgrade to show a wonderful image by focusing more on our parts, it is actually an advantage."

idntt's final goal for this year is to perform at the MAMA Awards. Park Nuri said, "Our goal is to win the Rookie Award at MAMA," and Kim Juhoo declared his ambitious plans, "Last time, we were fortunate enough to win an award on music shows. This time, our goal is to win awards on all music shows." 'itsnotover' was released on the 13th at 6 PM through various online music sites.
