The group IVE (IVE, An Yoo-jin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Won-young, Liz, Lee Seo) has foreshadowed the birth of a new "Girl Hero."
According to their agency Starship Entertainment, IVE will release the title track from their mini album "Looks Can Kill" on the 19th at 6 p.m. (KST) through various online music platforms. The new album "Looks Can Kill" inherits the "Girl Fantasy" character that IVE has presented so far while introducing a new ego, the "Girl Hero." Starship Entertainment stated that IVE infused the concept of an "IVE-style Girl Hero"—a hero who can deliver a fatal blow simply by existing—throughout the entire album.
The title track "Looks Can Kill" most intuitively reveals the identity of the album. IVE, which has consistently sung about "self-confidence" since its debut, included a message in this song that anyone can be the protagonist and hero of their own life. The focus is on how IVE overwhelms others with their mere appearance and instantly commands the atmosphere, unraveling that moment with their unique confidence and initiative.
The music is also in the electronic dance pop genre. It is expected to overwhelm listeners' ears. Dynamic drums and rich electronic sound elements harmoniously blend over a heavy and rough bass, expressing a bold and confident mood. Lyrics were written by Seo Ji-eum, Lil Cherry, and member Rei, capturing IVE's characteristic subjective attitude and candid, daring charm with high completion.
IVE amplified anticipation for the new album by releasing concept photos in the "HERO ON SET" version on the 18th, ahead of the title track release. In the photos, IVE wore outfits matched to each hero's symbolic color and struck poses that revealed a dignified aura, showcasing an unparalleled visual harmony and intense charisma.
Meanwhile, after releasing the title track "Looks Can Kill" at 6 p.m. on the 19th, IVE will hold "Spotify DIVE ACADEMY" with Spotify at Seoul Arc Gangnam at 8 p.m. The mini album of the same name is scheduled for release on the 26th.
