Modhaus boy group IDNTT reached 15 members on January 5, 2026, as second unit yesweare joined forces with returning unit unevermet. The expansion brings the mega-group closer to its ambitious 24-member final roster.

Yesweare Members: Eight New Faces Join IDNTT

Yesweare debuted with eight members: Lee Cheongmyeong (leader), Towa (IDNTT's first Japanese member), Lee Kyuhyuk, Park Nuri, Kim Seongjun, Han Yejoon, Choi Gyeongbeen, and Hwang Eunsoo. They performed alongside unevermet's seven members at Blue Square SOL Travel Hall in Seoul.

The mini album "yesweare" dropped at 6 PM KST across all streaming platforms, with a showcase held two hours later.

"Pretty Boy Swag" Features All 15 Members

Title track "Pretty Boy Swag" showcases the expanded lineup with bass, electronic guitar, and brass instrumentation. The song structure mirrors IDNTT's gradual expansion: unevermet takes verse one, yesweare handles verse two, and all 15 unite for the final section.

"We're competing in the first two verses, then unite to show we're one team," explained member Kim Dohun.

The five-track album includes "BOYS," "Yes We Are" (yesweare-only track), "Rage Problem," and "Moon Burn."

Diversity as Competitive Advantage

Members emphasized their varied backgrounds as IDNTT's core strength. Yesweare leader Lee Cheongmyeong noted he already completed military service, making him the first member to do so.

"Diversity is our weapon," Lee said. "Each person brings individuality that shapes our team identity."

Kim Heeju highlighted how eight additional members transformed their performance capabilities: "With seven, the stage felt full. With 15, we deliver mega-crew impact on a completely different scale."

Doubling First-Week Sales Target

IDNTT set concrete goals for the yesweare era. Nam Jiwoon stated the group aims to double unevermet's first-week sales of 336,152 copies while securing music show wins.

"We want to grow step by step," added Kim Heeju, balancing ambition with realistic progression.

Members expressed eagerness to connect with fans. Hwang Eunsoo wants to showcase his talents on music shows, while Park Nuri looks forward to fan meetings and direct interaction.

SEVENTEEN and BTS Remain Role Models

The group continues citing multi-member acts as inspiration. Kim Dohun said preparing the 15-member performance deepened his admiration for SEVENTEEN, while Choi Taein praised BTS members' individual excellence.

Nine Members Still Unrevealed

IDNTT's third unit, itsnotover, remains under wraps with nine members preparing for debut later in 2026. Once complete, the 24-member group will promote together, following the structure established by sister group tripleS.

"The remaining nine are training with us," explained Kim Seongjun. "We'll show 24 members growing as one team."

Yesweare's debut marks the second phase of Modhaus' most ambitious boy group project, positioning IDNTT as one of K-pop's largest active groups while emphasizing that scale enhances rather than dilutes individual member identity.
