Dubbed "Monster Rookie", iKON first showcased their talents and potential in survival programs, "WIN" and "MIX & MATCH", gaining them fans from Korea and all over the world even before they officially debuted. With their stylish, powerful, explosive music and performance style, iKON acheived unparalleled recognition immediately after their debut.
