ILLIT 'Love, Older You' (English ver.)

"Love, Older You" is the only song from Mamihlapinatapai album where all ILLIT members contributed on the writing of the songs. I think each member wanted to share the struggle that they had to went through within the last few years. You all probably know what happened between ILLIT and the other group, and I won't involve myself on this matter because I don't really know much about it. I won't defend ILLIT as much as I won't defend the other group. For me, all members of ILLIT and the other group - I saw them as kids who got stuck in a place where I assume both of them don't want all of these to happen. I am sure its hard to live when everyone see you as a star, one wrong sparkle and you end up being hated. I made the English version so that people can understand more about what ILLIT members, individually, as a human - had to went through. Love, Lucent.
