What's up with IVE?

Why are they so freaking good?

Why did nobody tell me this?

Yes, I've often been whining here about not knowing much about the latest wave of groups, so I finally decided to do something about it and started by listening to some IVE music .

It's so amazing, especially this song:

hey I did make a thread about I am lyrics being one of the bests in kpop

Do you have a link? I tried to search for it, but couldn't find it quickly.

If too difficult to find because it's a while back, it's okay.

Glad that you like it!

I also recommend you to listen to their bsides too because their bsides are really different from their title.

(personally... out of 4 releases, I only like 2 of their titles and for the other 2, I rank their bsides higher in my taste)

Oh, and also check out their latest Japan release:

Thanks! Am listening to Wave now.

Quote from 4NIA4

They really command attention.

Yes. I haven't even watched any of their stages yet, but they do.

I am starting to get why they're so popular

Quote from curlyfriez

Omg that’s great! If you liked I AM, I might suggest you give some of their b-sides on the album a listen—they’re seriously amazing. My favorites are Lips, Blue Blood, Hypnosis, and Cherish. Alsooo their past b-sides (My Satisfaction, Take It, and Royal) are so good, especially My Satisfaction it’s such a unique song.

Thank you so much for these recs.

I will check them out!

I AM

And you?

Quote from kirishiki

I am surprised you somehow managed to skip IVE

I skipped basically all groups that debuted in the last 1-2 years. I even made a thread about it a week or so ago back, asking if I was the only one who wasn't keeping up with new groups anymore

So I decided to start with IVE when it came to catching up and made the right decision.
