About Motto
The title song is called "Motto", just like the album, and it is about the connection between ITZY and their fans. It expresses how the fans give confidence to the girl group and have become their "motto". With the song, Chaeryeong, Ryujin, Yeji, Lia, and Yuna thank MIDZY. The message is accompanied by slow verses and a catchy chorus that repeatedly emphasizes the phrase "You are my motto". The music video features surreal, dreamlike imagery.
ITZY will show a brighter and happier side of themselves again with “Motto”, after their recent albums like “Tunnel Vision” and “Girls Will Be Girls” had followed darker concepts.
