Trivia
- The program's name consists of 'ii na', which means 'good' or 'nice', but is also short for 'ichi nana', meaning '17'; referring to the members' generation.
- The second half of the name, 'kenkyuujou' means 'research laboratory'. Due to the shows nature of 'experimenting' with different experiences, the name is a word play both on the theme of the show and the word 'kenkyuusei' (trainee), as all members are still kenkyuusei.
