The behind-the-scenes story of the children's group name being removed from (G)I-DLE to (G)I-dle.

JTBC 'Knowing Brothers', which aired on the 24th, featured children who returned with a new song 'Good Thing' in a year.

On this day, Kang Ho-dong asked Soyeon who had a short hair style "Is gum stuck to her hair?" In the past, we had a hair cut because there was no way to get gum on our hair."




In response, Soyeon "How did you know?" Did you watch our music video in advance?" I was surprised. In response to the unexpected answer, Kang Ho-dong laughed by saying, `I was trying to laugh, but did I get it right when I died?' Soyeon filmed it with chewing gum in the music video. I cut off my hair with gum", he explained.

At that time, the Heechul Kim praised "The head is so pretty", and Yu Gi "I was nervous looking at So-yeon's hair. Once upon a time, I decided to shave my head if I won first place on the Billboard," he said, drawing attention.

In addition, the children removed (G) from the team name they had used so far, Women's (G)I-DLE, and rebranded the team name as I-dle. There was also a fan meeting with the concept of a funeral to leave a woman (G).




Minnie said "It's a new chapter with the renewal of the contract."I didn't know how to add a girl (G) to the team name when I debuted" and Mi-yeon said "Now we've found our real name."

When asked "Did you really hate girls' titles?", Yu-gi said "I didn't like them" and "I knew (G) would be added as an article on my debut day. I asked and they said there were (men) children. I heard that if we couldn't make it, we would try to make it happen by combining the boys. We're successful and the boys are gone," he said, revealing the behind-the-scenes story.

The Heechul Kim responded, "'They're sad that they can't even debut.'" The members explained, "'No, they changed their team name and they made their debut.'"
