Girl I I is discussing a O.

They are planning to release a new song next year to celebrate their 10th debut anniversary.

I.O.I is a project group formed through the 2016 Mnet audition program ‘Produce 101’ Season 1, and the top 11 out of 101 trainees include Kim Se-jeong, Jeon So-mi, Chungha, Choi Yoo-jung, and Jung Chae-yeon.After their official promotions ended in 2017, they discussed reuniting once again in 2019, but it fell through due to the program’s vote-rigging scandal.
The reunion project, which took a long time to pursue, was realized as a ‘gift’ to fans to commemorate the 10th anniversary of their debut in 2026.

The members first agreed to “do it together,” and then conveyed this message to their respective agencies, which recently began discussions.

It has been reported that in order to concretely execute the reunion project, representatives from the members ‘agencies recently got together to coordinate opinions on the timing of activities, etc.

An official who attended the event that day stated, “The members are all under different agencies, so there are many processes they have to go through,” and “This is the first time we’ve talked about specific activity periods, methods, and management.Since all the members are currently active, it’s difficult to coordinate their schedules, but we’re looking at it positively because the members are determined to reunite.”
