History
Formation through I-Land 2: N/a and other activities
Izna was formed through Mnet's reality competition show I-Land 2, which aired from April 18 to July 4, 2024. The show brought contestants from Korea, Japan, and Malaysia, under WakeOne Entertainment, to compete and to debut in a multinational girl group, the first non-temporary girl group under WakeOne Entertainment. Out of a small pool of 24 contestants, only seven would be chosen to make the final lineup. All the members were announced in the finale episode, which was broadcast live on July 4, 2024, where they'll be active for about seven years.
Before appearing on the program, several members had already been active in the entertainment industry. In 2020, Choi Jung-eun participated in the CJ ENM survival show Cap-Teen but she was eliminated relatively quickly, in the first episode. In 2023, Bang Jee-min participated in the Belift Lab survival show R U Next but she was eliminated in the final episode, ranking 7th place, barely missing out on the chance to join Illit. Additionally, several other trainees received training under other entertainment companies. From 2018 to 2021, Bang Jee-min was a trainee under Source Music, then from 2021 to 2023, she was a Belift Lab trainee. From 2022 to 2023, Yoon Ji-yoon was a trainee under The Black Label. Lastly, Koko was a trainee under Avex Entertainment.

Prior to their official debut, on August 5, 2024, Izna was confirmed to be participating in KCON Germany 2024, on September 28 and 29, at Messe Frankfurt. They performed original mission songs and covers from I-Land 2, solidifying a strong presence all before debut.
In November 2024, WakeOne revealed that Izna would officially debut on November 25 with their first EP N/a. On November 22, the group showcased their debut performance during the second day of the 2024 MAMA Awards at the Kyocera Dome Osaka in Japan.
On March 31, 2025, Izna released their first digital single "Sign". Member Yoon Ji-yoon was not involved in this release due to hiatus. On April 15, the group won their first music broadcast trophy since debut on The Show with "Sign". On May 22, the group announced that they will release their second digital single "Beep" on June 9, without member Yoon Ji-yoon due to her ongoing hiatus.
