A few days ago, ILLIT dropped the MV for “Jellyous”, and it’s everything: sweet like jelly, sparkly like spring sunshine, but tinged with that unmistakable flutter of romantic uncertainty. 💭💘 It’s a perfect soundtrack for those moments when you don’t know if it’s love or just your imagination—either way, you’re already feeling a tiny bit jealous.
Let’s look at this moment of cute emotional chaos:
“혹시나 이게 다 착각이면 어떡해?
상상만 해도 질투나”
What if this is all just a misunderstanding?
Even just imagining it makes me jealous.
