izna: How to Get Started with the Group via ABEMA Variety Show

If you have just started learning about izna, there is a way to dive in through variety shows rather than just their new music release. 'izna's First Japanese Variety Show! What is N/a?' airs on the ABEMA KWORLD channel on June 10 and 17 at 9 PM, serving as introductory content that showcases the faces, names, speaking styles, and roles within the team of all six members at once. This article organizes the schedule and segments to check before broadcasting, as well as the best order to listen to their 3rd mini album, 'SET THE TEMPO'.

The core question is simple: After watching the broadcast, which member will a first-time viewer remember, and which song will they look up to listen to again? Therefore, for this program, observation points are more important than simple laughter. Watching who understands the games first, who lightens the mood, and where different expressions from their stage images emerge will help you grasp the team izna more quickly.

Basic Information to Check Before Broadcasting The first episode airs on June 10, 2026, at 9 PM. The second episode follows on June 17 at 9 PM. The channel is ABEMA KWORLD, and the MC is the Japanese comedy duo Pekopa. The participating members are Mai, Bang Ji Min, Coco, Yu Sa-rang, Choi Jeong-eun, and Jeong Se-bi.

You should also check the album schedule. izna will release their 3rd mini album 'SET THE TEMPO' on June 8 at 6 PM. Since the broadcast follows immediately after the music release, listening to the title track 'METRONOME' first and then watching episode 1 will help you better see the members' sense of rhythm and characters within the games. Conversely, if you entered through variety shows, the natural order is to look up the highlight medley and the title track stage after the broadcast.

Episode 1 is for Learning Names Episode 1 follows a team battle format. Team A consists of Mai, Yu Sa-rang, and Jeong Se-bi, while Team B consists of Bang Ji Min, Coco, and Choi Jeong-eun. The step dance battle lightly shows the physical sense of the performance team, and Jenga reveals concentration and reaction. The 'guessing objects in a box' segment is a corner where large reactions are inevitable, making it advantageous for beginners.

In this episode, 'distinguishing' is more important than winning or losing. If it is difficult to memorize all six at once, you can look at them by team. If you check who handles the explanations, who takes the jokes, and who quietly organizes the flow, the names will stick much faster. Members who passed by in single cuts in stage videos will remain longer through their words and expressions in variety shows.

Episode 2 is for Observing Teamwork In Episode 2, there are many scenes where the six members move together. The announced segments are a two-choice quiz, a 10-second continuous drawing relay game, and a 'Favorite Photos' talk by member. The quiz shows the process of guessing each other's thoughts, and the drawing relay game is a cooperative mission that must be understood without explanation within a short time.

The 'Favorite Photos' segment is particularly good for beginners. Photos chosen directly by the members, rather than stage or concept photos, show their tastes and daily sensibilities. This is where the tone of the broadcast changes. If Episode 1 is the process of attaching name tags, Episode 2 is the time to confirm what personalities and relationships exist behind those names.

In what order should you listen to the album? 'SET THE TEMPO' consists of 5 songs. The title track is 'METRONOME', and the B-sides are 'R.I.P.', 'INFINITY', 'ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS', and 'LEAN ON ME'. In the official highlight medley, confident gazes, vivid poses, and dreamy colors are repeated alongside three concept photoshoot scenes. Rather than a comeback that only emphasizes brightness, it is closer to emphasizing their own rhythm.

When listening along with the variety show, it is better to play 'METRONOME' first. As it is a song that evokes a steady beat like its title, it becomes easier to see how each member moves during the team battles. After that, it is worth connecting and listening to 'ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS'. The play imagery of the song title and the game format in the broadcast mesh together, showing that this comeback was not separated from the stage and variety shows.

Scenes to Recheck After the Broadcast After watching the broadcast, you can check which scenes leave an impression through official clips or highlights. For beginners, the scenes that stay long are usually short reactions rather than large explanations. The moment a member gives an unexpected answer or naturally accepts a teammate's mistake is what makes you remember their name.

Therefore, there are three major checkpoints for 'What is N/a?': whether you can distinguish faces and names in Episode 1 on June 10, whether teamwork is clearly visible in Episode 2 on June 17, and whether you return to the songs of 'SET THE TEMPO' after the broadcast. If these three are connected, this variety show will not be a simple comeback promotion, but the fastest entrance for viewers seeing izna for the first time.
