One Night Only: ITZY’s ‘ON AIR’ Fan Meeting Hits All the Right Notes
On April 20, ITZY turned Seoul’s KBS Arena into a celebration zone with their fourth official fan meeting, “ITZY The 4th Fan Meeting: ITZY MIDZY, LET’S FLY! ‘ON AIR’.” The event sold out completely, proving once again that the girl group’s star power is still sky-high. Livestreamed globally via Beyond LIVE, the concert-like gathering connected ITZY with fans from all corners of the map—online and offline.
All Dressed Up As Directors? Yup, That Happened
True to its broadcast station concept, the event kicked off with “IT’z SUMMER,” “ICY,” and their debut hit “DALLA DALLA.” Then came the fun twist—each member took on crew roles like audio engineer, stylist, or art director, rolling through skits and fan-service missions as if they were behind-the-scenes staffers. Think K-pop meets variety show, with serious DIY flair.
All About the Music: Solos, Covers, and Crowd Favorites
After group performances of “SNEAKERS” and “Kiss & Tell,” the spotlight turned to jaw-dropping solo stages:
- Lia soothed with tuki’s viral J-pop track “Bansanka.”
- Yeji channeled TWICE’s Nayeon with “ABCD.”
- Yuna went introspective with IU’s coming-of-age anthem “Twenty-three.”
- Chaeryeong turned sultry with Ga-In’s “Bloom.”
- Ryujin brought the house down with Jungkook’s “Standing Next to You.”
And when they reunited on stage to perform a sassy group version of Wonder Girls’ “So Hot”? Cue the screaming.
Fan Love, Wishes, and Big News
In a warm, interactive segment, ITZY read real fan-submitted wishes aloud, showing off their strong chemistry with MIDZY—their fandom name. They also performed bops like “Girls Will Be Girls,” “In the morning,” “Promise,” and “Sooo LUCKY,” proving once again that the title “Performance Queens of K-pop” isn’t up for debate.
But the night’s biggest mic drop? ITZY confirmed that all five members have renewed their contracts with JYP Entertainment, long before their first seven years wrapped.
“We decided to re-sign as a group to give back all the love we’ve received,” they said. “The seven years went by too fast. There’s still so much more we want to do together.”
What’s Next? Album Drops and Global Plans
The fan meeting wrapped with plenty of emotion, gratitude, and a promise to keep growing with MIDZY. And the journey continues: ITZY’s second Japanese full-length album, “Collector,” drops October 8. They’ll follow that with a fan meeting in Tokyo from October 11 to 13 at the Yoyogi National Gymnasium.
For ITZY, the next chapter isn’t just about comebacks—it’s about complete commitment, both to their fans and to each other. And we’re here for every beat.
