ILLIT FANDOM NAME is on controversy!

Girl group ILLIT announced the change of the official fan club name.

ILLIT’s agency BE:LIFT LAB announced its plan to change its official fan club name through Weverse on the 22nd. The agency said, “The fan club name, which was released on the 21st, was selected from among various candidates gathered with fans’ participation to pray for ILLT’s eternal love,” referring to the previously announced fan club name, “LILLY.”

“However, we decided to re-select the official fan club name in consideration of various concerns raised after the disclosure,” the agency said. “We will select ILLIT’s new fan club name from among the existing final candidates without a re-publication process and inform you later.”

The agency added, “We apologize for causing confusion regarding the decision to name the fan club.”

ILLIT previously decided on the official fan club name “Lilly” but changed it to “Lillys” considering the overlapping name with NMIXX member “Lilly.” However, BLACKPINK’s Lisa’s personal fandom name was “Lilies” and it became controversial as Lisa’s fans protested. Without ‘S,’ the name becomes idol’s name and with ‘S’ the pronunciation becomes same with other idol’s fandom name. They had to change the ILLIT fandom name.

Meanwhile, ILLIT continues to be a global hit, surpassing 100 million streams on Spotify with its debut song “Magnetic.”
