i-dle wins Forbes Asia's '30 Under 30' selection

Group i-dle (i-dle) has proven its global influence.

i-dle (Miyeon, Minnie, Soyeon, Yuqi, Shuhua) made the list in the entertainment and sports category of Forbes, a major U.S. business magazine, in its announcement on the 27th (local time) of the '30 Under 30 Asia' for 2026.

Forbes' 'Asia 30 Under 30' selects 30 people (or teams) under the age of 30 each year who have demonstrated influence in their respective industries across the Asia-Pacific region. i-dle was recognized as one of the teams representing K-pop groups this year, receiving acknowledgment for both its achievements so far and the expectations for the future.

Since their debut in 2018, i-dle has been loved for numerous hit songs such as 'Tomboy,' 'LATATA,' 'Nxde,' and 'Queencard.' They are currently on their fourth world tour, 'Syncopation,' and are scheduled to take the stage at Lollapalooza, a major U.S. music festival, along with the release of a new album in July.
