The members of I.O.I recently came back together to celebrate their 10th anniversary, but their recent M Countdown performance has sparked major heartache.
The reunited members of I.O.I | @ioi_10th/X
The group came back with the track “Suddenly,” making fans so happy with their reunion.
On May 28, I.O.I had their last official music show stage.
During the final performance, instead of ending fairies, when the group finishes, a banner appeared telling I.O.I, “I’ll wait for you forever.”

Unsurprisingly, after being away for so long, being with fans but realizing it’s their last music show stage, and then the banner made all the members burst into tears.

The clip was posted and started going viral.
No ending fairies, just tears on stage and a banner saying, “I.O.I, I’ll wait for you forever.”

It sparked heartbreak among fans at the idea that the group’s promotions are ending and after the concerts, all the members will go back to their own solo activities rather than being with each other.
This is was the most heartbreaking promotion ever on music show 😭 https://t.co/Wi1ZhuI1A4

Many are hoping I.O.I don’t make fans wait another ten years for another reunion.
