Hive Next girl group has been confirmed, the group name is I'LL-IT.

The debut member of the Hive Next girl group has been confirmed. Yoona, Minju, Mocha, Youngseo, Wonhee, and Iroha were selected through the survival program "RU Next?" and the group name is I'LL-IT. 

I'LL-IT combines an independent and enterprising will (I will) with a pronoun (It) that means something special. Depending on the verb that will go between the two words, it can be anything, and it is expected to be something, and it also has a direction as a group with great potential. 

They carried out a new song mission and a theme song mission at the final episode of JTBC's "RU Next?" (production company Studio Jam/Mushroom Company), which was broadcast live on the 1st. As they survived through a total of seven gates for 10 weeks, they performed the best stage of the day, and the keyword "RUNEXT" entered the real-time trend on Twitter, proving the keen interest of fans at home and abroad.

The stage of the new song "Aim High," in which MC Choi Soo-young participated in the lyrics, shone with the positive energy of the participants moving toward higher goals. Another new song "Desperate" stage received a great response as the desperate and intense aspirations of those who are about to debut were expressed in charismatic performances. 

The stage of "RU Next?" theme song "With Full Speed," which marked the beginning and end of the program, was decorated by 10 people who advanced to the final round together, adding to the impression. Like the title of the song, it gave a long lingering impression with the stage that contained the dreams and passion of the participants who ran full speed toward their dreams. 

With viewers from 182 countries and regions around the world watching, the final debut members who cut off the finish line were Yoona, Minju, Mocha, Youngseo, Wonhee, and Iroha. The agency selected four people by combining the two people who recorded the top ranks in the first and second rounds of the final and their skills and potential on and off the stage. 

It was a moment when joy and sorrow were bound to be mixed whenever each person was called. However, all the participants shed tears of joy and emotion with the same heart, touching viewers' hearts. 

Chairman Bang Si-hyuk of Hive encouraged the 22 participants' journey so far, and said, "I will sincerely support the future of I'LL-IT, which will represent a new generation. RUNEXT is over, but I hope it was an opportunity to take a step closer to everyone's dream. He said, "The trainees who have fallen will also make a better leap forward based on their experiences." 

"RU Next?" which first aired on June 30, has written a remarkable growth narrative with fierce competition every time, with 22 trainees from Billif Lab participating to become "global K-pop stars." The 12 players, who were unfortunately eliminated, also performed the second round contest song once again and responded to the fans who have sent a lot of love and support.

"RU Next?" co-produced by Billifrap, Studio Jam, and Mushroom Company, has steadily gained global popularity and attracted attention. The total number of followers on "RU Next?" SNS exceeded 1 million before the debut, and the cumulative number of content using the hashtag "runext" on the official TikTok exceeded 800 million times. Famous Japanese magazines also paid attention as there were multinational participants.
