IVE's Thrilling Race: A Heartwarming Victory for All Members

IVE (An Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, and Leeseo) embarked on an exhilarating race filled with passion.

On the 13th, Starship Entertainment released a new episode of their self-produced content '1.2.3 IVE Season 6' titled 'Running IVE' on the group's official YouTube channel.

In this episode, the members participated in the final mission, 'Jewel Finding Race.' As soon as the race began, the members started collecting cards, with Rei determinedly stating, "Today, I will definitely win!" Gaeul, who started later, meticulously found the jewel cards that others missed, showcasing her keen eye by saying, "It's not just about speed."

The first event space, 'Jewel Exchange,' opened shortly after. Liz was the first to complete all the mini-games, including 'Cham Cham Cham,' bottle flipping, and air bending, successfully exchanging her jewels. Liz continued to dominate the exchange, earning the title of 'IVE Exchange Master.'

In the second event space, '? Room,' members were given the chance to draw random cards by answering quiz questions correctly. Leeseo, who chose '? Room' over the challenging 'Jewel Exchange,' ended up drawing a '-30' card after several attempts, humorously lamenting, "Isn't this too much?" and marking the first negative score in the 'Jewel Race.'

The second floor, previously restricted, was then opened, and the hidden 'angel' spy, Jang Wonyoung, began the 'Name Tag Removal Race' by tearing off Gaeul's name tag. Jang Wonyoung formed the 'Annyeongz' alliance with An Yujin, the team's strongest member, and they actively removed other members' name tags.

The formidable 'Annyeongz' alliance faced a challenge when they encountered Rei and Liz. Rei, in a sad voice, asked, "Why... what if I cry because I'm upset?" This led 'Annyeongz' to dissolve their alliance, turning the race into a temporary individual competition, bringing laughter. In a surprising twist, An Yujin was eliminated by members who had gathered to sing a goodbye song, despite having a revival ticket. Ultimately, Jang Wonyoung claimed victory.

With Jang Wonyoung's win, a hidden rule was revealed: if the 'angel' wins, all members win, and the prize money is multiplied by ten for everyone. This revelation was met with cheers, though some humorously questioned, "Then why did we have to flip bottles?"

The 'K-POP Devil Special' and 'Running IVE' concluded with a heartwarming all-member victory. Jang Wonyoung expressed, "It was tough fighting alone as I feared, but I ran hard for everyone's prize," while the members thanked her, saying, "Thank you, angel," ending the race on a warm note.

IVE's self-produced content '1.2.3 IVE Season 6' is released every Friday at 7:30 PM on their official YouTube channel.
