“You make me Blush❤️🔥

The dance cover quickly caught the attention of BINI members Mikha Lim and Maloi Ricalde, who both shared their excitement in the comments.
“You are a Dazzling Girl 💝,” Maloi wrote in Hangul.
Mikha, meanwhile, commented, “I'M LITERALLY IN LOVE WITH YOU STOPPPP."

At the time of the dance cover, BINI was in Cebu for the regional leg of the BINI Signals World Tour, while ITZY had already wrapped up their Tunnel Vision concert in Manila.
Although the two groups were unable to meet in person, the interaction thrilled fans, many of whom hoped BINI and ITZY would finally cross paths someday.
“OMG OMG OMG HELLO MEKALEM @bini_mikha MAGPA-GAS KA NA AT UMUWI NA FROM CEBU HAHAHAHAHA OMG WAAAAAAAAA BINI AND ITZY CRUMBS! DOUBLE CELEBRATION FOR US!” a fan posted on X.
“Mikha was in LA when ITZY danced to 'Pantropiko,' and now Mikha is in Cebu while Chaeryeong danced to 'Blush.' The universe somehow makes sure Mikha sees ITZY one way or another ❤️🩹, another one said.
“Sinayaw ni chaeryeong + nag comment si yeji + emoji HAHSHSHSHSHS panalo ka @bini_mikha.”
Fans also joked about ITZY’s growing connection with Filipino trends, with one writing: “ITZY OUR COUSIN FOR REAL THEY KEEPING UP WITH FILO TRENDS.”
BINI has never hidden its admiration for ITZY. In a previous interview with PUSH Bets Live, the P-pop girl group shared why they look up to the K-pop act.
“We really love this K-pop group ITZY because our age gap is very close, but they have already achieved so much, and we want to, of course, be like them but also make an image of our own,” they said.

BINI Mikha also previously spoke about how ITZY has inspired her as an artist.
“I’ve been inspired by them. Watching their videos, it reminds me of BINI so much on how they tackle insecurities, how they try to move on from that and how their mental health has been also affected but at the same time they still able to give their best. For me, that’s what I want for BINI. I want us to strive and maybe have a collab with them also,” she said.
Meanwhile, this is not the first time ITZY has shown love for BINI’s music. During the group’s Born To Be concert in Manila in 2024, the members danced to the chorus of “Pantropiko” after receiving numerous requests from Filipino fans.
