Ive An Yu-jin and Jang Won-young.

IVE's An Yu-jin and Jang Won-young shared the honor of winning the '2025 Brand of the Year Awards'.

An Yu-jin won the Female Entertainer of the Year award at the 2025 Brand of the Year Awards. She was also selected as the female entertainer of the year for three consecutive years, following 2023 and 2024, proving her popularity as a "popular entertainer."

Jang Won-young also won the Female Advertising Model of the Year award, fully confirming her status as the 'Advertising Queen' who has taken on various fields such as beauty, fashion, food, finance, and alcohol.

Hosted by the Korea Consumer Forum, the "Brand of the Year Awards" is Korea's largest brand awards ceremony. Each year, a nationwide consumer vote selects and rewards the best brands of the year. This year marks its 23rd anniversary. Any Korean consumer can vote on the website.

An Yu-jin and Jang Won-young showed off their powerful influence both domestically and internationally by being selected as the Female Entertainer of the Year and Female Advertising Model of the Year, respectively, through a national consumer vote held from June 30 to July 3.

In 2022, Ahn Yu-jin appeared on the tvN entertainment program 'Pyonpyong Earth Arcade' and showed off her overflowing competitive spirit and cheerful 'clear-eyed' entertainment sense, earning the nickname 'Na Yu-jin', the daughter of PD Na Young-seok's entertainment. She then solidified her position as a 'confident entertainment idol' by displaying upgraded wit and entertainment sense through seasons 2 and 3 of 'Pyonpyong Earth Arcade' and the spin-off 'Jirak's Ttu Ttu Bang Bang'.

Since her debut, Jang Won-young has modeled for various brands, establishing herself as a dominant force in the advertising industry. This year, she's continued her meteoric rise, securing the title of ambassador for a leading Vietnamese F&B brand and a liquor brand, a measure of the popularity of "trending" stars.

Meanwhile, Ive returned to the music industry on the 25th with the release of his 4th mini album 'IVE SECRET' and will continue active promotions with the title track 'XOXZ'.
