iMetU Kelly takes 1st place with 940,000 votes on 'The Show'

Girl group I.MET.U has swept both the individual and team categories in the music show 'THE SHOW' voting. According to the results of 'THE SHOW EP.395 After Voting' conducted by the global fandom platform BIGC Choice from the 16th to the 20th, I.MET.U rose to the top by recording the highest vote percentages in both the 'Fanpick Cam' and 'Hot Stage' categories.

In the individual category, 'Fanpick Cam,' member Kelly showed an unrivaled presence. Kelly took first place with an overwhelming total of 943,560 votes. It appears that fans gave high marks to Kelly's detailed performance and facial expressions. I.MET.U's strength continued in the 'Hot Stage' category, which targets team performances. Their 'VELVET TRIGGER' stage secured first place in the team category with 439,800 votes. As a reward, the first-place winners of this vote will receive advertisements at the Hongik University Station digital bus shelter and the Jamsil Lotte World Mall media chandelier.

The strength of the 4-member 'Creatainer' group born through survival

I.MET.U is a four-member group formed through the survival program 'TIME TURNER,' which is based on the short-form platform TikTok. The team consists of Kelly, Yerin, LIA, and Cleo, who were finally selected after defeating approximately 2,000 competitors. Moving beyond being idols who simply sing on stage, they promote 'Creatainer' (Creator + Entertainer) as the group's identity, directly planning content and communicating with global fans.

The composition of the members is also solid. Leader Kelly spearheads the group's planning and global communication. LIA, who has participated in the group VIVA and solo activities as J'LEA, holds the team together based on her rich stage experience. Yerin, a former leader of the group Hi-L, plays a core role in the performance line, and the youngest member Cleo, who is from Indonesia, enhances the perfection of the performances by handling dance and choreography content. The group is characterized by members with different strengths coming together to show organic teamwork.

Preview of the August 22nd Seoul Land 'KASCOOL Festival' stage

Having proven the power of their fandom through the voting results, I.MET.U is immediately preparing to meet fans in person. I.MET.U has been named in the lineup for the '2026 KASCOOL Festival' to be held at Seoul Land in Gwacheon on August 22nd. This festival stage is expected to be an opportunity for I.MET.U to expand their public recognition by showcasing major performances, including 'VELVET TRIGGER.'
