(G)I-DLE announce rebrand with new name, two new albums
- On May 1, 2025, the K-pop group I-DLE announced they would rebrand as i-dle and release two new mini-albums in May.
- The rebrand follows their seventh anniversary and a decision to drop the 'G', originally signifying 'girl', to move beyond gender labels.
- The group revealed a new logo featuring five dots symbolizing unity among the five members and announced the first mini-album would release May 2 at 6 p.m. KST.
- They confirmed the second mini-album would arrive on May 19, continuing their musical comeback under Cube Entertainment after renewing all members' contracts last December.
- This rebranding suggests i-dle aims to redefine their identity creatively and appeal broadly, marking a new phase beyond prior constraints and continuing their active role in music production.
