Ten Heartfelt Performances of I.O.I to Watch Again

Official videos linking debut, unit performances, the full group, and the 10th anniversary reunion

The performances of I.O.I vary in visual density depending on the number of members involved. In 2016, the full group of 11 showcased expansive formations and quick part transitions, while the 'Whatta Man' unit of 7 highlighted clearer personal movements. In the 2026 reunion performance, 9 members appeared, excluding Mina and Joo Kyulkyung, seamlessly connecting familiar songs with new rhythms.

This list selects ten official videos that allow for comparison between three different formations. First, listen only to check how parts transition, then observe formations and camera movements while watching. Only videos from broadcast stations and official distribution channels like KBS, Mnet, SBS, and 1theK have been used, and official titles and channel information have been noted in the items.

Comparing the ten performances makes it clear that the live feeling of I.O.I is not simply due to the number of members. The breath of 11 members passing short parts in 2016, the personal space secured by 7 unit members, and the synchronized movements of 9 members in 2026 each showcase the character of their respective eras. The key point is that even under the same team name, the stage grammar changes depending on the arrangement and song.

In your rewatch, try to pair the 2016 and 2026 stages with a similar vibe. Record how the way cameras catch members, audience reactions, and the ease of their expressions have changed. By choosing songs where the advantages are better showcased on stage than in the audio, the differences among the ten official videos become clearer.
