ILLIT is teaming up with TEO, the content studio led by producer Kim Tae-ho, for a new variety show.

"Somjoe City," premiering November 12 and 14, is built around "You're Under Arrest," the title track from the group's fifth mini-album, BREAK EVEN.

Released October 26, BREAK EVEN takes its name from the break-even point in a relationship. The album carries a message of refusing to waste any more time and emotion on connections that don't give back what one puts in. The title track, "You're Under Arrest," is a warning to someone who habitually shows kindness and leaves others misreading their intentions.

A teaser released Tuesday showed the members blowing whistles and racing around to round up kindness suspects. The clip turns the album's narrative into a comedic, variety-show scenario.

In "Somjoe City," YUNAH, Minju, Wonhee and IROHA set out to catch suspects who stir up romantic misunderstandings, in keeping with the album's concept. The members will roam Seoul, chat with residents and hunt for people who habitually show kindness to those they're attracted to, leaving the other person with the wrong idea.

After the sting operation, the members will sit down with fans for a full-fledged debate. They will share their own views on the question, Where does goodwill end and flirting begin?

The project marks the first collaboration between ILLIT and TEO's YouTube production team, and it stands out for translating the album's message into a variety format. With TEO's fresh creative approach and variety-show direction, the series is expected to offer a new way to link music and entertainment.

ILLIT debuted in March 2024 and rose to popularity with songs including "Magnetic," "NOT CUTE ANYMORE" and "It's Me." The group's latest release, BREAK EVEN, reached No. 6 on the Billboard 200, the main albums chart in the U.S., while the title track, "You're Under Arrest," peaked at No. 22 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100.

"Somjoe City" will air at 6:00 p.m. (KST) on November 12 and 14 on the official YouTube channels of TEO and ILLIT.
