IVE THE 3rd EP <IVE EMPATHY>

Six charms and a single teamwork... the evolution of the 'hexagonal girl group' IVE

A clearer color - new music with confidence, storytelling of 'emotion' and 'empathy'

'K-pop's unrivaled presence' IVE aims for the best moment once again with confident new music. Based on the 'independent confidence' that symbolizes IVE, a different charm has been added to the team's color. The music has become more solid, and the confident gestures and confident attitude remain the same. It is the beginning of another change derived from self-confidence.

It is also impressive that they have maintained their original color while creating points of contact with various genres without a break. They are still talking about 'myself', but this album stimulates emotional curiosity from a more mature perspective. A new change where change is detected, IVE's new style, which cannot be easily predicted, will expand infinitely in this way.

 

Love and understanding... Maximizing the expanded 'empathy' <IVE EMPATHY>

If the previous work depicted IVE's image full of self-love, this time, it evokes 'empathy' from a more diverse perspective. In a mature yet unique way. While maintaining IVE's unwavering subjectivity, they gain empathy from the 'era' and 'generation' through music and performance. In addition, the members composed a story of becoming one by embodying each character.

“WE ARE REBELS in OUR HEART” … ‘Rebels’ solidarity march ‘REBEL HEART’

 

The title song 'REBEL HEART' aims for comfort and empathy, emphasizing 'comradeship'. With various narratives

'REBEL HEART', which depicts the solidarity march of 'rebels', is a song that combines colorful vocal harmonies and an overwhelming chorus, creating a rich sound with sweet strings and uptempo drums.

The lyrics that offer comfort and the majestic sound give a strange sense of reversal.

"I'll decide my mood", unmistakable self-confidence... Diva IVE's 'ATTITUDE'

The double title song 'ATTITUDE' is about a situation that cannot be changed, the only thing that can be changed is my "attitude" in accepting the situation. It is a song that sings about the attitude of "pleasantly" accepting situations that cannot be changed, and is a song that re-proves IVE's confident charm full of self-confidence. In particular, it samples Suzanne Vega's 'Tom's Diner' and is equipped with a powerful melody that cannot be forgotten once you hear it. It also evokes historical empathy with a retro vibe. In addition, lyricist Seo Ji-eum, member Jang Won-young, and 'REBEL HEART' lyricist Nietzsche participated in writing the lyrics to enhance the completeness.

In this way, the familiar melody, groovy rhythm, and addictive chorus are enough to show off their presence. The feeling that is more intense than the heat of summer and clearer than the coldness of winter fully conveys IVE's unique energetic vibe.

The third EP <IVE EMPATHY> connects IVE's identity and throws a new topic of 'empathy'. IVE, which has been aiming for completion rather than growth since its debut, is expanding infinitely into a new world in this way. IVE's color will become clearer through newly developed images, new music with a sense of reversal, and performances of undeniable confidence.
