NiziU Crowned Best Female Idol Group at 14th TOP TEN AWARDS

The group NiziU has claimed the top spot in the Best Female Idol Group category at the 14th TOP TEN AWARDS (TTA), competing for the title of 'Best Global Artist'.

Organized by TenAsia, the 14th TTA is an event to select the best global artists for the first half of 2025. Artists representing K-pop and K-content competed for the 'Best Global Artist' title at the 14th TTA.

NiziU expressed their joy, stating, "We are thrilled to receive the award for Best Female Idol Group at the 14th TTA. We owe this to our fans, WithU, who always support and show immense interest in us. We promise to work even harder in the remaining months of 2026 and deliver great music and performances, so please continue to support us."

Last month, NiziU released their second Japanese EP 'GOOD GIRL BUT NOT FOR YOU', which topped the Oricon Weekly Album Ranking and Weekly Combined Ranking (March 30 - April 5). NiziU first topped the Oricon Weekly Combined Album Ranking with their pre-debut digital mini-album 'Make you happy' in July 2020. This latest album marks their seventh time at the top, making them the female artist with the most number-one albums on the chart.

Recently, NiziU concluded their solo arena tour in Japan. The tour kicked off in Aichi in March and visited Hokkaido, Osaka, Tokyo, and Fukuoka. All 12 performances across five regions in Japan were sold out, attracting a total of 120,000 attendees. Building on this momentum, they will hold their second dome tour, 'NiziU Live with U 2026 DOME TOUR', in June. This will be their first solo dome concert in approximately three years and six months since 'NiziU Live with U 2022 "Burn it Up"'. The tour will take place on June 6 and 7 at Kyocera Dome Osaka and on June 13 and 14 at Tokyo Dome.
