From having bullets fired at them and exploding buildings, to disrupting the set of a movie, the ‘Cake’ music video is sure to keep fans entertained. Amongst chaos the girls of ITZY stir, they manage to sing, dance and smile beautifully like it’s a piece of cake!

ITZY have always thought outside of the box and stepped in uncharted territory, and are yet again proving that they own every concept they dip their hands into.
