'MZ wannabe iKON' IVE (Ahn Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, Lee Seo) achieved two crowns with their new song 'XOXZ.'
IVE appeared on MBC's 'Show! Music Core' broadcast on the 6th, securing the top spot with the title track 'XOXZ' from their fourth mini album 'IVE SECRET'. As a result, IVE lifted their second trophy with the new song 'XOXZ' following KBS2 'Music Bank'.
IVE expressed gratitude through their agency Starship Entertainment, saying, "We would like to thank our fans, DIVE, for giving us another great gift. Seeing DIVE in person on stage really motivates us. We will do our best in our remaining activities to repay the love you have sent us. Please continue to show us lots of love and interest. We love you, DIVE!"
On that day, IVE appeared in stage outfits combining black with silver points, overwhelming the stage with their precise performance and stable live vocals. The point choreography that intuitively expressed 'XOXZ' showcased the members' flexible tempo adjustments, captivating the audience, and their relaxed facial expressions amplified the song's dreamy yet sophisticated mood, drawing cheers from fans.
IVE made their comeback after about seven months, releasing their new album 'IVE SECRET' on the 25th of last month. The album highlights the hidden sides behind its glamorous appearance, portraying the group's three-dimensional aspects, while the title track 'XOXZ' unfolds complex emotions over a heavy rhythm and elegant melody, leaving a strong aftertaste.
Currently, IVE continues to be active not only in music broadcasts but also in various programs and content. As they participate in various content both separately and together, attention is focused on their future activities.
Meanwhile, IVE is set to appear on SBS's 'Inkigayo' today (7th) at 3:20 p.m., showcasing their new song 'XOXZ'.
