“Yes, I Love It!” — Why the I.O.I 10th Anniversary Comeback is the Ultimate K-Pop Miracle
The long-awaited “Yes, I Love It!” is finally echoing across the globe. Ten years after promising to meet again, the nation’s first project girl group is making good on their word. The I.O.I 10th Anniversary Comeback is no longer a fan theory; it is a full-scale reality with the announcement of their “LOOP” world tour, starting this May in Seoul before heading to Los Angeles and beyond.
From Project Group to Permanent Legends
When I.O.I disbanded in 2017, they left fans with a tearful promise to reunite in a decade. Fast forward to 2026, and the members—who have since dominated as soloists (Chungha, Somi), actresses (Sejeong, Chaeyeon), and group leaders—are coming together to close the “LOOP.” This I.O.I 10th Anniversary Comeback isn’t just a nostalgia trip; it’s a high-production return featuring a brand-new album that explores their journey from trainees to icons.
“LOOP” World Tour: What We Know So Far
The reunion kicks off with a massive two-day concert at the Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Arena (KSPO Dome) on May 4th—the exact anniversary of their debut. Following the Seoul leg, the group will bring the I.O.I 10th Anniversary Comeback energy to major cities including:
-
Seoul: May 4-5, 2026
-
Los Angeles: June 12, 2026 (The Kia Forum)
-
Tokyo: June 28, 2026
-
Bangkok: July 10, 2026
Insiders suggest the tour will feature reimagined versions of classics like “Pick Me” and “Very Very Very,” alongside solo stages that highlight how much each member has grown over the last decade.
The “Produce 101” Legacy Lives On
The impact of this reunion reaches far beyond the fandom. As the group that pioneered the survival show craze, their return signals a rare moment of unity in a competitive industry. Fans who voted for them in 2016 are now leading the charge for tickets, proving that the bond between the “National Producers” and their “Pick” remains unbreakable.
Whether you’re a Day 1 fan or a newcomer to the K-Pop scene, this tour is set to be the emotional highlight of 2026. Grab your lightsticks; the dream is officially back in session.
