about
IVE (Hangul: 아이브; Katakana: アイヴ) is a six-member South Korean girl group formed by STARSHIP Entertainment. The group is composed of members: YUJIN (안유진), GAEUL (가을), REI (레이), WONYOUNG (장원영), LIZ (리즈) and LEESEO (이서). The group's name, IVE, is a contraction for "I have". It refers to the idea of showing what "I have" to the audience with confidence, where instead of telling the story of growth, the group intends to portray a "complete girl group" from the start. IVE was teased for the first time on November 9, 2021, with a short video revealing the group at first sight. Their debut was anticipated due to the public reputation of WONYOUNG and YUJIN, who were members of the popular girl group IZ*ONE. IVE debuted on December 1st, 2021 with the single album ELEVEN with the title track ELEVEN as the lead single. It became one of the most successful girl group debuts, earning 45 million views on YouTube in under just a few days. The song also peaked at #2 on South Korean Gaon charts and #16 on Japan’s Hot 100. The group got their first music show win on December 8th, 2021, 7 days after their debut. On April 5, 2022, IVE made their first comeback with their second single album LOVE DIVE and title track LOVE DIVE. The single album out-performed ELEVEN, with 120,000 copies sold in under one day of the albums pre-release on stores. LOVE DIVE helped IVE gain more recognition and went on to receive several accolades, including the prestigious Song of the Year award at the MAMA Awards
