UNIS received intense attention from Billboard in the U.S.

UNIS (Jin Hyun-joo, Nana, Jelly Dongka, Kotoko, Bang Yoon-ha, Ellysia, Oh Yoon-ah, Lim Seo-won) was named one of Billboard's K-Pop rookies of the month for February 2025 on the 28th of last month (local time).

Billboard noted the past year of UNIS, which is approaching its first anniversary, through an article titled 'UNIS Is Billboard’s K-Pop Rookie of the Month for February.' Along with this, the media conducted an interview with UNIS on themes such as learning and growth through their activities and upcoming new challenges.

Reflecting on the past year in an interview with Billboard, UNIS identified their debut and winning the rookie award as the most memorable moments. The members expressed, "Debuting was UNIS's first step. It was really nerve-wracking to reveal UNIS to fans who had been eagerly waiting." They also added, "Winning the rookie award felt like our efforts were truly recognized."

When asked about their goals for the year, Jin Hyun-joo, Kotoko, Bang Yoon-ha, Ellysia, and Lim Seo-won expressed their ambitious hopes, saying, "To achieve first place in all music broadcasts." Jelly Dongka wished, "It would be really great if UNIS holds a solo concert this year."

Lastly, UNIS instilled expectations for their activities in 2025. The members revealed, "We plan to showcase a side of UNIS that we haven't shown before," adding, "UNIS is not limited to a unified concept. We are ready to show everything from cute and lovely looks to chic and cool appearances. This year, you can expect a variety of styles from UNIS."

As noted by Billboard, UNIS released two albums last year and actively engaged in global activities. As a result, they proved their immense potential by sweeping a total of 12 trophies, including the rookie award, at various awards ceremonies.

This year’s progress is also remarkable. From the start of the new year, UNIS was selected as the promising girl group (rookie) to lead 2025 at the '2025 Korea First Brand Awards.' At the '1st D Awards' held on the 22nd of last month, they won the Dream's silver label and the Discovery of the Year award, achieving a total of two awards.
