The K-pop group IVE, consisting of members An Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, and Leeseo, continues to dominate major music charts even after concluding their official album promotions.
According to data from major domestic music platforms, the pre-release title track 'BANG BANG' from IVE's second full-length album 'REVIVE+' has secured the top spot on Melon's weekly chart (March 2nd to March 8th) for two consecutive weeks. Additionally, it has maintained its number one position on the weekly charts of Genie Music and Bugs for three consecutive weeks. The group also topped the domestic YouTube weekly popular artist chart (February 27th to March 5th) for four consecutive weeks.
Similar trends were observed on the Hanteo Chart, a music sales tracking platform. IVE achieved first place in the World Chart and Social Chart categories for February. They also claimed the top spot on the weekly World Chart (March 2nd to March 8th) and added another number one record on the weekly music chart with 'BANG BANG'.
Released on February 9th, 'BANG BANG' became the first song released this year to achieve a 'Perfect All-Kill' (PAK) on multiple domestic music charts, marking the group's sixth PAK record.
Both title tracks from the album have successfully entered the charts. Following the EDM-based track 'BANG BANG', the other title track 'BLACKHOLE', which features a grand cinematic sound, is also climbing the charts. It ranked 5th on the Bugs weekly chart and secured the 11th position on the Melon chart.
Through this album's promotions, IVE collected a total of eight first-place trophies from domestic music broadcast programs, concluding their official activities. Starting in April, they plan to embark on their second world tour concert 'SHOW WHAT I AM', covering Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Oceania.
Before departing for their world tour, IVE will also hold domestic face-to-face events. On March 21st and 22nd, they will host their fourth official fan concert '2026 IVE THE 4TH FAN CONCERT DIVE into IVE' at the Incheon Inspire Arena.
