- In her comeback on February 2018, there is again the same girl in the music video for "Idle Song" and also some clues for (G)I-DLE members (an earth glob with indicators of their birth places and radio fixed on "450" (for April 5, their reveal date).^{[citation needed]}
Miyeon is a former YG Entertainment trainee.^{[citation needed]}
The group name have some significations:^{[citation needed]}
- "(G)" (여자) is for "girl" and "Idle" (아이들) for "children".
- The "I" in "I-DLE" is for the individuality and "DLE" the plural, so the girls have the same personality but their are related.
Cube Entertainment was looking for a group name and after Soyeon sent the agency her song for her second digital single "Idle Song" it became the edited group's name "(G)I-DLE".
