I-LAND Season 2 details and release date

In the first season of I-LAND, 23 male contestants were competing for a spot in the newly formed boy group. However, only a handful got the chance to debut in the group, which fans know as ENHYPEN. Spanning 113 days, the show depicted the trainees' experiences, culminating in the selection of the final group through a combination of fan votes, producer decisions, and more.

However, the upcoming season of the reality show will diverge from the previous season’s format and consist of female contestants, from which a new girl group will be created. Moreover, the show is also following a new direction in production. The new season will be a collaboration between YG Entertainment producer Teddy and his label, The Black Label, which is home to artists like Jeon Somi, Taeyang, and more. The show is set to release on April 18, 2024.
