Welcome to the Summer of SAY MY NAME
SAY MY NAME is officially ready to soundtrack your summer. The rising K-pop girl group is stirring up anticipation for their August 1 comeback with their debut single ‘iLy’, and they’ve been dropping teaser content that’s as colorful as a summer popsicle.
Gorgeous Concept Photos? Check.
After cooling fans off last week with breezy, summer-themed photos, the girls just turned up the glam with a new set of concept images released on July 28. The group’s eight members channel a mix of girlish charm, kitschy boldness, and effortless cool—basically, a Pinterest mood board come to life. Whether it’s playful poses or jaw-dropping visuals, each member flaunts their own flavor of charm.
#iLyChallenge Is Already a Viral Hit
Before the song has even dropped, the #iLyChallenge is already making waves. With a growing list of celeb guest stars, the dance challenge offers fans an early taste of the track. Standout appearances include Lee Chaeyeon and Choi Yena—Hitomi’s former IZ*ONE sisters—bringing both nostalgia and top-tier chemistry. Meanwhile, P1Harmony’s Theo and veteran actress Ha Ji-won also joined the fun, racking up clicks and cheers across social media.
‘Can’t Take My Eyes Off You’—But Make It K-Pop
‘iLy’ isn’t just a catchy title—it’s SAY MY NAME’s first dive into the world of summer anthems. The track reimagines Frankie Valli’s iconic “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You”, blending retro vibes with a modern K-pop twist. Don’t expect a simple cover though; this interpolated version shines with the group’s unique style and vibrant vocals.
D-Day: August 1
Mark your calendars and set your countdowns—SAY MY NAME’s first-ever single ‘iLy’ officially drops on August 1 at 6 PM KST. With the buzz already building and fans counting down on social media, this could be the summer sleeper hit we didn’t know we needed.
