I-dle Releases Ninth EP 'We Made' With Sensual Summer Single

The five-track EP marks a sensual pop reset driven by member songwriting that ties directly to the group's Syncopation world tour.

Overview

  • The group released We Made on Monday, a five-track EP led by the Latin/pop-influenced single "Gimme Dat Love" that leans into heat, tension and late-night allure.
  • Leader Soyeon wrote lyrics for four of the five tracks and framed the project as a return to core songwriting, while member Yuqi co-wrote and composed the R&B ballad "Love Is Pain."
  • "Gimme Dat Love" was produced with international collaborators including Daramola and Samantha Camara, signaling a move toward more accessible, cross-cultural pop sounds.
  • The release is integrated with I-dle’s ongoing Syncopation world tour, which has hit career milestones such as headlining Taipei Dome and drawing nearly 80,000 fans in Hong Kong, and the group is slated to play Lollapalooza Chicago on July 31.
  • We Made builds on the group's string of commercial successes, follows last year’s rebrand dropping the "(G)", and positions I-dle to expand their Western festival profile while keeping creative control in members' hands.
