ITZY's Chaeryeong releases her first solo record, the mini album Lovesick, on Monday, November 9, 2026. She is the third ITZY member to go solo, after Yeji and Yuna, and the album has four songs, one with lyrics she co-wrote. This guide gives the release time in your time zone, the tracklist, the teaser timeline, the official ways to buy the album, and what JYP Entertainment has not announced yet.

Release time: November 9, 6 PM KST

The album and the music video for the title track "Lovesick" come out at the same time on music platforms. JYP has also scheduled a countdown live one hour earlier, at 5 PM KST. The platform for the live was not stated in the coverage we checked, so watch ITZY's official channels on the day.
