INI held their release event "WISH U MINE๏ผ๏ฝžๆ–ฐๅนดใซ่ดˆใ‚‹INIใ‹ใ‚‰ใฎPresent๏ฝž" (A New Year Present from INI) on January 28 to celebrate their latest single "THE WINTER MAGIC."

The 11-member group used the event to express renewed gratitude to their fans, known as MINI, for their continued support that has helped INI achieve million-selling status with their singles. The event's title suggests it was positioned as the group's New Year gift to their fanbase.

"THE WINTER MAGIC" represents another milestone for INI, who have consistently achieved impressive sales figures since their debut. The group formed through the survival show "PRODUCE 101 JAPAN Season 2" and debuted in 2021 under LAPONEentertainment.

For international fans unfamiliar with INI, the group consists of Takumi Ozaki, Kyosuke Fujimaki, Takeru Goto, Hiroto Nishi, Yudai Sano, Jin Matsuda, Shogo Tajima, Rihito Isaka, Xu Fengfan, Masaya Kimura, and Takumi Kawanishi. They've quickly established themselves as one of Japan's rising boy groups, with their releases consistently topping charts and achieving significant commercial success.

The group's ability to maintain million-selling status demonstrates their strong connection with fans and solid position in the competitive J-Pop market. Release events like this one allow INI to interact directly with MINI while celebrating shared achievements.
