IROHA

IROHA (이로하), born Iroha Hokazono on February 4, 2008, is the youngest member and main dancer of ILLIT (아일릿). From Tokyo, Japan, she began dancing at age three. A former JYP Entertainment trainee, she practiced alongside future members of NMIXX and NiziU before joining Belift Lab and competing on R U Next?. IROHA debuted with ILLIT on March 25, 2024, on the mini album SUPER REAL ME. Lead single Magnetic entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number 91 just eight days after release, making ILLIT the fastest K-pop act to chart there. The single also set Oricon streaming records in Japan, where IROHA's presence has been central to the group's cultural connection with Japanese audiences. The group continued with I'll Like You in October 2024, Bomb in June 2025 featuring lead single Do the Dance, and the double-single Not Cute Anymore in November 2025. In February 2025, IROHA and groupmate Moka were announced as Tone Up UV ambassadors for La Roche-Posay, marking one of their first individual-level brand appointments. Her hip-hop-influenced movement style brings a distinct edge to ILLIT's choreography. As the group's maknae, she projects calm precision offstage but commands full attention in performance. Along with Moka, IROHA is one of two Japanese members in ILLIT, and a key bridge to the group's Japanese fanbase.
