'Weekly Idol' is a flagship variety program of MBC M·MBC Every1 that has been broadcast since July 2011. It is regarded as the variety show guide for all idols in South Korea and the go-to guide for idol fans worldwide, known as a must-do program before idols make a comeback, and is highly popular among fans. In particular, 'Weekly Idol's' 'random play dance' and 'n times speed dance' have garnered attention, establishing the program as an essential course for idols to master.
After concluding its broadcast in December of last year, 'Weekly Idol' is taking a break for reorganization and will return after six months with a new MC. The new MCs will be Monsta X's Min-hyuk and Cravity's Hyung-jun, and the revamped 'Weekly Idol' plans to expand music-centered content while maintaining its existing strengths and enhancing communication with fans. It aims to provide opportunities for direct interaction with fans in spaces where they can communicate through music, establishing a stage where idols and fans can connect even more closely.
izna will appear as the second guest on 'Weekly Idol.' izna is a girl group formed through the survival show 'I-LAND 2,' and the team name embodies bold confidence and conviction, indicating that it can be defined as 'me' at any time, anywhere, and in any situation. By releasing their first mini album 'N/a' on November 25 of last year, they have challenged themselves to break past their limits and fears towards a new world.
With their debut album, izna entered the top 10 on the iTunes top album charts in 14 countries worldwide and achieved 1st place in the K-pop album rankings on Apple Music Japan and Rakuten Music. On March 31, they made a rapid comeback with their first digital single 'SIGN,' which climbed to high positions on major domestic music sites like Melon and Genie right after its release, and also ranked 2nd on Spotify Japan's rising chart, 2nd on Amazon Music's singles popularity, and 3rd on iTunes K-Pop top songs, showcasing their prominence in major Japanese charts. They celebrated winning first place on their debut music program SBS M 'The Show,' and also secured 1st place on 'ENA K-Pop Chart Show.'
After meeting fans through various radio programs, content, and web variety shows since their debut, izna chose 'Weekly Idol' as their first variety program. Having rapidly built their career in less than six months since their official debut, izna is preparing for a comeback in June. With a double celebration of their first variety appearance and comeback, it is anticipated what kind of variety sense and chemistry izna will showcase through 'Weekly Idol.'
Meanwhile, the reorganized 'Weekly Idol' will air for the first time on June 6 at 5:30 p.m. on MBC Every1 and at 11:30 p.m. on MBC M.
