ILLIT’s ‘It’s Me’ Leads ‘bomb’ Comeback With Third Mini Album Release

ILLIT has returned with “It’s Me,” the title track connected to the group’s third mini album, ‘bomb.’ The ILLIT comeback was set around the April 30, 2026 release of the album and music video at 6 p.m. KST, with BELIFT LAB’s Weverse notice listing the project’s release details and CD track lineup.¹

The release places “It’s Me” at the center of the group’s new activity, following teaser coverage earlier in the week and same-day reporting that framed the music video as the group’s comeback with ‘bomb.’² The album follows ILLIT’s October 2024 release ‘I’LL LIKE YOU,’ making it the group’s first new album in about six months.³

‘It’s Me’ anchors the ‘bomb’ release

The title track has been described in coverage as a techno pop song with a strongly addictive quality. OSEN, carried by Korea Daily, reported that ILLIT released a music video teaser for “It’s Me” through the group’s official YouTube channel on April 26, 2026, ahead of the full April 30 release.⁴ allkpop also reported the teaser release, identifying “It’s Me” as the title track from the third mini album ‘bomb.’⁵

After the teaser phase, allkpop reported on April 30, 2026 that ILLIT had released the “It’s Me” music video and described the song as a high-energy techno pop track.² That sequence gives the comeback a clear rollout: teaser first, then the full song and music video alongside the album release.

BELIFT LAB’s promotional wording, cited in OSEN’s report, said the song’s addictive melody and performance reflecting “ILLIT-ness” would capture viewers’ eyes and ears.⁴ The phrase points to the agency’s positioning of the single as both a musical and performance-focused comeback, without changing the core confirmed details: “It’s Me” is the title track tied to ‘bomb,’ and the release date is April 30, 2026.

Key release facts

The Weverse release information gives the most direct structured view of the album. It lists ‘bomb’ as ILLIT’s third mini album and provides the CD track names: “little monster,” “jellyous,” “oops!,” “bamsopoong,” and “잇츠미 (Almond Chocolate) Korean Ver.”¹ The notice also uses the promotional line, “I’m your bias!,” tying the release announcement to the album’s official campaign language.¹

The tracklist detail is notable because the title-track coverage in English-language reports uses “It’s Me,” while the official CD listing includes “잇츠미 (Almond Chocolate) Korean Ver.” The available source material supports both references, but it does not provide further details about any difference between the title track presentation and the CD-listed Korean-version title beyond the names shown in the notices and reports.

Comeback context and member comments

Money Today reported on March 16, 2026 that ILLIT would make an April comeback with ‘bomb,’ describing the third mini album as a release that would show a wider range of the group’s appeal.³ That article also placed the album after ‘I’LL LIKE YOU,’ noting the roughly six-month interval between the October 2024 release and the April 2026 comeback.³

CBS NoCut News published a comeback Q&A on April 30, 2026 tied to ‘bomb’ and “It’s Me.” The article described the album as exploring feelings around a stronger and more complex sense of “you” and “me,” while also carrying member comments about choreography, performance, and the direction of the album.⁶

In that Q&A, Minju said, in translation, that each new album brings both nerves and excitement, and that the group would be able to show a charm different from what it had shown before.⁶ The comment aligns with the broader framing of the comeback as a new stage for ILLIT’s performance and musical presentation, while remaining within the confirmed promotional context supplied by the source material.

The confirmed record around “It’s Me” is straightforward: ILLIT’s third mini album ‘bomb’ was released on April 30, 2026 at 6 p.m. KST, the title track led the comeback’s public rollout, and the official and media coverage centered on a techno pop performance direction. With the teaser, music video release, album details, and comeback Q&A now aligned around the same date, “It’s Me” stands as the principal focus of ILLIT’s ‘bomb’ release cycle.
