Currently, ITZY is actively promoting their latest comeback tracks, “Kill My Doubt” and “Cake.” Notably, “Cake” achieved its very first music show victory, marking a significant achievement for the group. However, there has been mixed feedback from netizens about the track, with some expressing concerns that the quality of ITZY’s music has been declining since their previous release, “Sneakers.”
