The group i-dle (I-dle·Miyeon, Minnie, Soyeon, Yuqi, Shuhua) graced the digital cover of the U.S. magazine 'PAPER', capturing attention. PAPER released i-dle's pictorial and interview on May 27.

In the cover pictorial, i-dle reinterpreted the angelic mood of the 1990s with styling that featured distinct colors and elaborate decorations. They created a new atmosphere by incorporating romantic yet classic details.

PAPER stated, "i-dle exudes a comfort that only those who have come to understand themselves more clearly over a long period can possess," and explained, "They are moving forward trusting their instincts and musical direction."

It further added, "The desire to strip away the unnecessary and get closer to the essence now defines i-dle's music itself. i-dle has built the most original worldview within K-POP. It is dramatic yet realistic, sharp, yet human."

Regarding the digital single 'Mono (Feat. skaiwater)' released last January, the magazine praised, "It may sound softer than their previous music, but no anxiety is felt anywhere. Instead, i-dle possesses the confidence of an artist who no longer seeks to prove themselves through noise."

Additionally, regarding the new song 'Crow' unveiled at the '2026 i-dle WORLD TOUR [Syncopation]', it was highly praised: "While the crow is often seen as a symbol of bad omens, death, and disaster, i-dle has completely overturned that image. They are beings that endure and survive by holding on to the narrative surrounding them to the end, and that resilience is what makes i-dle's current solid atmosphere stand out even more."

It also noted, "Whenever i-dle finds themselves in a tight spot, they return with even greater certainty about who they are. It may not have suited them to settle into a single image from the start," conveying anticipation for their comeback in July.

i-dle carried out North American promotions on NBC's 'The Today Show', 'The Kelly Clarkson Show', and 'iHeart KPOP with JoJo'. They are set to take the stage at the famous U.S. music festival 'Lollapalooza' in July to meet local audiences.
