On January 5, FCENM Entertainment confirmed that the new girl group would debut sometime in March and their group name will be ILY:1, which included “Girls Planet 999” contestants Kishida Ririka, Hayase Hana, Chang Ching, and Lee Yun Ji. Later today at 6 pm KST, FCENM will open ILY:1’s official social media accounts.
“ILY:1” is a combination of the word “I” and the suffix “-ly,” meaning “like I” or “like myself,” while the “1” represents the individual members with their unique characteristics coming together as one group. It also carries the additional meaning of the acronym for “I Love You,” representing the group’s love for their fans. The name is pronounced “eye-li-one.”
