IVE has transformed into secret agents with a gap-filled charm. Yesterday (15th), their agency STARSHIP Entertainment released a concept film through IVE's official channel, giving a glimpse of the atmosphere of the 4th mini-album 'IVE SECRET'. The released footage begins with the message 'WHAT IS YOUR [*****] IVE?' and captures the beautiful visuals of IVE dressed as secret agents. The members, styled with colorful blue and yellow eyeshadows and voluminous permed hair, create a dreamy mood with quiet music, stimulating curiosity in scenes where they whisper something. Midway, a scene where an angel emoji turns into devil horns shifts the atmosphere. The members reveal their hidden sides with confident poses, playful expressions, and free gestures, showcasing their cool and contrasting charm. Notably, Gaul posts a wanted poster of Rei, and scenes of searching for clues with a magnifying glass and evidence in a bag heighten viewers' curiosity. At the end of the video, the '[*****]' from the beginning changes to the word 'SECRET', leaving a lingering impression. The album 'IVE SECRET', set to release on the 25th, includes six tracks, featuring the title song 'XOXZ' with Wonyoung participating, and 'Midnight Kiss' with Liz contributing to the lyrics, enhancing its quality. IVE has been expressing the concept of 'EVIL CUPID' through various teaser content, building excitement for their comeback. Breaking the existing Cupid image, IVE presents a proactive Cupid aiming arrows for themselves, receiving a warm response. They will continue to unveil diverse concepts and content themed around 'SECRET'. The 4th mini-album 'IVE SECRET' and the title track 'XOXZ' will be released on the 25th at 6 PM through various music streaming sites.
