ifeye arrived from Seoul with a name that’s almost an instruction: Imagine & Find Energetic Young Eyes. They were known as Hi‑Hat Girls before anyone called them a debut act — restless trainees, stubborn about craft, curious about the world. Debuting on April 8, 2025 with ERLU BLUE and the single “NERDY,” the six-piece blends refreshment and mystery; the result? A debut stage on Mnet’s M Countdown and, not long after, performances at Taipei Dome and KCON LA 2025 — big rooms, bigger expectations.
Led by Kasia (Lee Ga Yeon), a 17‑year‑old ENFJ who was revealed first and auditioned for Wollim, P NATION and FNC, the group balances seasoned trainees with fresh faces. Won Hwayeon and Taerin — both 19 in 2025 and quietly fierce — bring vocal nuance and dancer’s precision (Taerin trained at KOZ and Yuehua; Won Hwayeon started belly dance at six). Rahee’s early piano and stage training at SM Universe gave her a poised charm. Meu, 17, stands out with a husky tone and long legs (170 cm, about 5’7″). And Sasha, the 16‑year‑old maknae, carries the main vocal lines with a left‑profile that became her trademark.
Their sound was shaped by producer RyuD — a name tied to choreography and studio sessions with Zayn, Ellie Goulding and even Britney Spears — who produced “NERDY” and helped translate their energy into something global. They sing, dance, argue, and practice until dawn. Their official greeting still rings true: “(two, three) Hello, We are ifeye!” It wasn’t always this stage-lit. But then: one song, one tour, and suddenly a small Seoul project felt like the start of something nearly inevitable.
