A Legacy of Success
(G)I-DLE, a leading K-pop girl group under CUBE Entertainment, debuted on May 2, 2018. The group initially consisted of Soyeon, Miyeon, Minnie, Shuhua, Soojin, and Yuqi. They made a huge impact with their debut mini-album I Am and the song “LATATA,” which cemented their place as one of the top emerging K-pop groups.
Despite parting ways with Soojin in 2021, the group continued as a quintet, maintaining their bold and unapologetic musical identity. Their powerful tracks like “Wife,” “Super Lady,” “TOMBOY,” and “Nxde” have resonated with fans worldwide.
The renewal of contracts ensures that (G)I-DLE will continue to make waves in the K-pop industry for years to come.
