IVE Unveils Group Image Ahead of 'REVIVE+' Album Release, Building Anticipation for 'BLACKHOLE'

K-pop group IVE (members An Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, and Leeseo) has heightened the anticipation for their comeback by releasing a group image just three days before their new album launch.

On the 19th, Starship Entertainment shared the 'BANGERS CONCEPT PHOTO' group image on IVE's official social media channels.

In the revealed photo, IVE stands against a vivid blue background, capturing a moment on stage with striking poses and intense gazes, showcasing their powerful presence. The cohesive energy of the six members captivates viewers, embodying the aura of IVE. The multitude of phone screens filling the bottom of the photo symbolizes the intense interest in them and hints at the powerful allure of their title track 'BLACKHOLE'.

The bold styling, featuring luxurious fur jackets, dresses, sequins, and leopard patterns, highlights each member's individuality while amplifying IVE's unique synergy when together. The energy that radiated outward in previously released individual photos converges in the group photo, encapsulating the image of a 'BANGER'—a song with addictive energy—through a perfect visual harmony.

IVE's second full-length album 'REVIVE+' marks a significant point in their narrative, expanding from a focus on 'me' to 'us'. The title track 'BLACKHOLE' redefines the concept of 'us', delivering a message of collective empowerment and unity beyond individual confidence. Following the pre-release of 'BANG BANG' on the 9th, IVE continues to build excitement with diverse content, and anticipation is high for the new energy they will showcase with 'BLACKHOLE'.

IVE's second album 'REVIVE+' and the title track 'BLACKHOLE' will be officially released on various online music platforms on the 23rd at 6 PM (KST).
