Faded memories of the Y2K era were brought vividly to life on today’s stage, colored by six girls in all their diversity. K-pop group IVE captured the hearts of global fans with a daring visual concept that hits all the right notes of retro nostalgia.
On the 26th, IVE surprised fans by unveiling spin-off concept photos for “Crumbs,” a track on their new EP, “Looks Can Kill,” through the group’s official social media channels.
Zebra-print knee-high boots with neon-pink tutu skirts; yellow leopard-print mini dresses paired with pink boots—a playful, kitschy mix. Colorful, seemingly hand-strung beaded necklaces, layered bracelets and striped knee socks call to mind the heroines of early-2000s teen movies. Behind the polished, confident charisma that has always defined IVE, the group’s signature playful mischief and bubbly energy bring a smile to viewers’ faces.
“Confidence in lyrics written by Gaeul and Liz”… IVE turns a new page with its EP
“Crumbs,” whose spin-off photos have drawn attention, is an electronic dance-pop track with lyrics written by members Gaeul and Liz. The members’ sincerity and individuality shine through in every lyric and every styling choice.
After kicking things off in style with the pre-release title track “Looks Can Kill” on the 19th, IVE made a powerful impression on the K-pop scene once again with the official release of the self-titled EP on the 26th. Fans are eagerly anticipating the six members’ dazzling musical journey, as they move effortlessly between retro and trendsetting sounds.
