As mentioned above, ITZY has just shared an opening trailer video for their latest album. In the video, the members are seen portraying strong 'girl crush' characters. The content leading up to the comeback includes concept photos for the song Loco, which were released the following day.

These photos showcase the unique fashion styles of the members, with bold combinations and colors. This has led some netizens to question why ITZY always has the same concept.

"Why do they always have the same concept? I'm tired of seeing the same thing all the time," one netizen commented.

"Shin Yuna always wears strange clothes. This is the first time I've seen a visual member being treated like this," another netizen added.

"Yeji's outfit is messy. I'm really disappointed," concluded another.

Meanwhile, there are also comments expressing admiration for ITZY's consistency in carrying out their concept. They also compare it to other groups in JYP that have diverse concepts.

"I'm actually surprised that JYP decided to stay consistent with this specific image for their girl group. I think the same can be said for SKZ. It's really nice to see the consistency and balance they have experienced throughout their growth and development."

For MIDZY or ITZY fans, this comeback news is highly anticipated. When the announcement of the comeback with CRAZY IN LOVE came out, it immediately became a hot topic on various social media platforms.

Praise, support, and criticism given by netizens to idol groups about their work is normal. But what if they receive criticism about the personality of one of the members?

In the online community site Theqoo, this comeback news also became a topic of discussion. The majority showed full support. However, there were also concerns about the bullying allegations against Lia, one of the ITZY members.

This case started from a statement uploaded by someone claiming to be a victim of bullying by Lia during middle school, on February 24th. After that, JYP, as the agency, filed a defamation lawsuit and released an official statement to deny the allegations against one of its members.

However, in the end, JYP Entertainment withdrew its lawsuit because the police stated that there was not enough evidence to prove that the victim's uploaded confession was a false story. Furthermore, on June 15th, JYP proposed to conduct a re-investigation through an official statement. The investigation was conducted so that all the truth could be revealed.

Therefore, netizens are still questioning Lia's participation in this comeback, while she is involved in bullying issues.

"JYP has two groups with school violence controversies," said netizens.

"What about Lia? Please save Ryujin, Chaeryeong, Yeji, and Yuna," commented others. "Yeji and Yuna are good, but I'm upset because ITZY always gets negative reactions every time they comeback," added another.
