Last year, JO1 completed their first world tour. In May, they achieved the highest ranking ever for a Japanese artist on the U.S. Mediabase Top 40 Radio Airplay chart. In December, they performed at the 2025 iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour in Dallas and Los Angeles, marking another historic first for a Japanese act.
More recently, they were nominated for “World Artist of the Year” at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards, becoming the first Japanese artist to receive this recognition.
