The group, named I’ll-It, was formed in September 2023, comprising six members who successfully navigated the audition show "R U Next?" The debut of I’ll-It as a quintet is scheduled for the first quarter of this year. Notably, Youngseo secured the runner-up position in the program, with Wonhee earning the highest number of votes.

In parallel, a reality show featuring the six members has been airing since October of the previous year, capturing their experiences as they travel around Jeju Island. As the group undergoes changes ahead of their debut, Belift Lab remains focused on navigating this transition and ensuring a successful launch for I’ll-It.
