K-pop group I.O.I is ramping up preparations for a brand-new album and concert to mark their 10th anniversary.
Recently, members Im Nayoung, Chungha, Kim Sejeong, Jung Chaeyeon, Kim Sohye, Yoo Yeonjung, Choi Yoojung, Kim Doyeon, and Jeon Somi wrapped both jacket and music video filming, sending anticipation for their comeback skyrocketing.
During their original run, I.O.I pulled off a wide range of concepts and built a one-of-a-kind team color. For this comeback, they plan to unveil fresh visuals and a new concept, and despite the long hiatus, their easy chemistry and unshaken teamwork reportedly shine through.

Fans are also thrilled about the '2026 I.O.I Concert Tour: LOOP,' which is set to kick off in May at Seoul’s Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium before touring major Asian cities like Bangkok and Hong Kong. The title 'LOOP' signifies a story picking up where it seemed to have ended—looking back on the past with fans and creating new memories together.
