Editor's note

I.O.I's brief, bright run in K-pop

The 2016 project group formed through Produce 101 left a handful of songs that still get played.

For the full picture, listen to '너무너무너무 (Very Very Very)' and 'When the Cherry Blossoms Fade' back to back. One is pure pop rush, the other feels like a goodbye.

They were a temporary group, but songs like '너무너무너무 (Very Very Very)' became K-pop staples. The track's bright energy and the show's 'Pick Me' anthem defined a specific moment in 2016 idol culture. You still hear those choruses in compilation playlists and year-end retrospectives.

I.O.I came together in 2016 from the survival show Produce 101. They released music for about a year before members returned to their original agencies or debuted in other groups.

Archive material and source history

I.O.I came together in 2016 through the reality competition show 'Produce 101,' where eleven members were selected from a pool of 101 trainees. Their debut single 'Very Very Very' arrived that May and quickly became a hit, topping music charts and winning awards. The group's temporary nature was built into their contracts from the start, with a planned disbandment date already set.

During their brief run, they released songs like 'Whatta Man' and 'Downpour,' which appear on their list of top tracks. After their scheduled disbandment in early 2017, members went on to various projects, with several pursuing solo careers or joining other groups.
