History
2015–2019: Pre-debut activities
After failing to pass auditions held by Fantagio, Chaeryeong and her sister were cast by JYP Entertainment (JYP) through the K-pop Star 3 television series.[4] In 2015, Chaeryeong participated in JYP's survival show Sixteen but did not make the final lineup of the winning girl group, Twice.[5] The first member of Itzy to join JYP, she trained for five years. Ryujin was scouted at a Got7 concert and trained at JYP for four years prior to Itzy's debut. Both Yuna and Yeji joined JYP in 2015 and trained for three years, Yuna after being discovered by company staff, and Yeji after having successfully auditioned. The final member, Lia, initially auditioned for SM Entertainment and passed, but was forced to back out at the last minute due to a disagreement with her parents. She passed JYP auditions several years later and trained for two years.[6]
In 2017, Yuna and Ryujin appeared in BTS' "Love Yourself" highlight reel.[7] The same year, the members (except for Lia) appeared on the Mnet reality show Stray Kids as a project group alongside the boy group that would eventually be named Stray Kids.[8] Ryujin also competed on JTBC's survival show Mix Nine, placing first among the female contestants but losing overall to the male contestants.[9] Meanwhile, Yeji participated in SBS' The Fan but was eliminated in the fifth episode.[10]
2019: Debut with It'z Different and It'z Icy
On January 21, 2019, JYP announced that they would be debuting a new girl group, their first since Twice in 2015 and first overall idol group since Stray Kids in 2017.[11] The label's official YouTube channel uploaded a video trailer revealing the five members.[12][13] On February 12, the group released their debut single album, It'z Different, led by the single "Dalla Dalla". The song incorporated elements from EDM sub-genres such as future house and bass house, and its empowering lyrics were well received by audiences.[14][15][16] The group scored one of the biggest Billboard debuts for a new K-pop act in years, with "Dalla Dalla" entering at number three and peaking at number two on the World Digital Song Sales chart. The song sold 2,000 downloads in the US in the week ending February 14, according to Nielsen Music, making it the best-selling K-pop song in the country that week. "Want It?" was released alongside "Dalla Dalla" and debuted at number eight, selling 1,000 downloads. "Dalla Dalla" also debuted as the second most popular song on YouTube.[17][18]Billboard confirmed that the music video for "Dalla Dalla" surpassed 17.1 million views within 24 hours of its release and broke the record for the most viewed K-pop debut music video within 24 hours.[19] On February 21, eight days after their debut, Itzy received their first music show win on M Countdown, breaking the record for the fastest time for a girl group to achieve their first music show win.[20][21] The song went on to win on music shows nine times,[22] and its music video became the fastest K-pop debut music video to reach 100 million views on YouTube at the time.[23]
Itzy's first extended play (EP), It'z Icy, was released on July 29, along with a music video for lead single "Icy".[24][25] Commercially, the EP was a success, peaking at number three on the Gaon Album Chart. "Icy" continued the group's success on music shows, earning 12 wins, including a triple crown on Show Champion.[26] On September 22, JYP announced Itzy's showcase tour, the Itzy Premiere Showcase Tour "Itzy?

It was the first debut song by a K-pop group to earn a platinum certification from the Korea Music Content Association (KMCA) since the introduction of certifications in April 2018.[28] The single ranked eighth on the list of "The 20 Best K-pop Songs of 2019" compiled by Dazed, which described the group as having kept "a steady hand on the rudder using the fun touches even with the visual and sonic chaos going on around" and "the ones to give K-pop a fresh boot up".[29] The music videos for "Dalla Dalla" and "Icy" placed on the list of South Korea's most popular music video on YouTube at numbers two and seven, respectively.[30] At the end of the year, Itzy won several Best New Female Artist awards, including at the 2019 Melon Music Awards and the 2019 Mnet Asian Music Awards.[2][3]
