"MZ wannabe icon" Kim IVE (IVE: Ahn Yu-jin, Autumn, Ray, Jang Won-young, Liz, and Lee Seo) achieved his sixth "Perfect All-kill" with his new song "BANG BANG".

Starship Entertainment, the agency, said on the 24th, "Bang Bang, the pre-released song of IVE's second full-length album 'REVIVE+' topped major domestic music charts and achieved a perfect all-kill." This is the first perfect all-kill among songs released in 2026, the sixth achievement in IVE.

According to the music chart tally, "Bang Bang" dominated the real-time charts, daily charts, TOP100 charts, and YouTube Music Korea weekly popular songs (as of February 13-19) of domestic music sites Melon, Genie, Flo, Vibe, and Bugs.

This is IVE's sixth perfect all-kill record following "After LIKE" released in 2022, "Kitsch" released in 2023, "IAM," "Baddie," and "REBEL HEART" released in 2025.

"Bang Bang" is a song that contains a subjective message that makes its own choices and pioneers the situation without being shaken by the gaze and rumors around it. It is an intense opening track based on EDM and electronic sound, and shows a more expanded musical spectrum of IVE with a combination of intro using western swing and straight beats.

The performance was also loved and added firepower to the perfect all-kill. "Bang Bang" combines powerful choreography on top of the speedy EDM sound, showing intuitive point choreography such as "shoulder dance" with arms crossed and shoulders waved, "keyring dance" that expresses head banging with hand movements, and "yaya dance" that intensely bends the waist. These performances are gaining popularity by leading the spread of challenges on various platforms, including global short-form video platform TikTok.

Meanwhile, IVE released its second full-length album 'Revive Plus' on the 23rd and began a full-fledged comeback. The album and title song "BLACKHOLE," which expanded the narrative of self-confidence built around "I" to "We," settled at the top of the domestic and foreign charts upon release.
