Since I got into IZ*ONE and more K-Pop, I've been suggested loads of K-Pop videos on YouTube recently and came across this. I love that they used =LOVE in the thumbnail (disclaimer: not all the songs in the video were released in 2019)

 

=LOVE ranked 10th in another "Next breakthrough artist in 2019" top (3rd among teens)!

Ikoraji "RADIO=LOVE" #72 (190216)

 

Finally created an account. I like some 46/48 songs, but to be honnest, i’m mostly here for =LOVE XD

Saw Teokure Caution on youtube last year and it was so good that i wanted to learn more about this group. Now i’m totally addicted XD

My favorites members are Hana, Anna, Iori, Nono and Emiri. My favorite songs are Kioku No Dokoka De, Teokure Caution and Want You! Want You!

Can’t wait to hear their 5th single ^^

 

WELCOME aboard! Just nice to get on board

 

@YellowAccel welcome!

Thank you ^^

 

Are there any TV Shows of them or at least some as guests?
Would like to get in touch with them.
Anything subbed would be great.

 

^ I'd say, the best way to know the group better is to watch the documentaries on their Youtube channel
unfortunately, they are not in English.

the only English subbed TV shows are the 3 Nemousu TV mountain climbing specials
those are basically the only TV variety shows =LOVE members have been on ^^; there were occasional TV appearances on some music shows or solo appearances of some members (Sukatto Japan, AKB48SHOW), but nothing noteworthy.

the main source of the "weekly =LOVE dose" are still their web shows:
IkoTime
IkoNico RabuNico
Ikoraji
IkoRabu Dai Tokkun Chu
