This world tour starts from the Seoul performance at KSPO Dome in Korea on October 31, November 1, and 2, 2025, and will be a large-scale world arena tour covering Asia, America, Europe, and Oceania. This is IVE's first performance at Kyocera Dome Osaka, and in Japan, following the previous Tokyo Dome, they attracted 79,000 fans across two dome performances, captivating a large number of fans. They performed eight songs nonstop from the beginning, followed by title tracks 'I AM' and 'ATTITUDE.' The special performances prepared for the tour energized the venue. They also debuted their new songs 'BANG BANG' and 'BLACKHOLE,' which topped charts globally, to great applause in Japan. Additionally, the long-awaited solo stages showcasing each member's individuality captivated the audience with impressive performances. Furthermore, they gave a world premiere of the title track 'LUCID DREAM' from their upcoming IVE JAPAN 4th EP, set to release on May 27. This song, with a different vibe from previous Japanese title tracks, resonated with the audience, further heating up the venue. After successfully concluding their first performance at Kyocera Dome Osaka, IVE announced an additional concert in Japan at Tokyo Dome on June 24. Ahead of the release of IVE JAPAN 4th EP 'LUCID DREAM' on April 3, the pre-release of the campaign song 'Fashion' began on the App Store. Additionally, the track 'JIGSAW' was selected as the theme song for the TV Tokyo drama 'Strange - Junji Ito's Night of Unrestful Stories.' The limited edition jacket illustrated by Junji Ito has become a topic of discussion. IVE held their world tour 'IVE WORLD TOUR 'SHOW WHAT I AM' in Japan at Kyocera Dome Osaka on April 18 and 19. This tour, which began at KSPO Dome in Korea at the end of October last year, is a large-scale tour spanning nearly a year across Asia, America, Europe, and Oceania, attracting 79,000 fans for the Japan performances. The members showcased a glamorous staging centered around songs from their latest album 'REVIVE+.' This article reports on the events of the 18th. At the scheduled time, stylish visuals were followed by a striking electro beat. As the tour title was displayed, silhouettes of the six members appeared one after another, eliciting loud cheers from all around the venue. The memorable opening number was 'GOTCHA (Baddest Eros).' The members danced beautifully, surrendering to the aggressive rhythm. Without pause, they performed numbers like 'XOXZ' and 'Baddie,' showcasing their unique aesthetic with tight rhythms and cool raps. Guided by synthesizer arpeggios, they sang 'Ice Queen,' and expressed a world where disappearance and birth coexist with the shuffle beat sound of 'BLACKHOLE,' astonishing the audience with their ability to color the venue in IVE's style from the very beginning. 'Good evening, we are IVE! Welcome to the Osaka performance!' The audience responded with loud cheers to their bright greeting. After a brief introduction, the brass section signaled the start of 'TKO.' Singing and dancing to a track using the retro rhythm machine known as '808,' they followed up with the tribal mood-filled dance pop 'Holy Moly' and the impactful number 'My Satisfaction,' inviting the audience with alluring gestures against the backdrop of giant chess pieces. After an interlude of visual imagery, they moved to the solo corner. The first to appear was Wonyoung, who portrayed a sophisticated adult woman with the electronica/EDM track '8.' Next, Rei approached cutely with the colorful pop song 'In Your Heart' featuring drum and bass, while Liz excited the crowd with 'Unreal,' challenging a refreshing band sound. The fourth to appear was Gaul, emphasizing her delicate side with the fantastical 'Odd.' Following her, Lee Seo performed 'Super ICY,' and Yujin sang 'Force,' both showcasing fashionable performances that impressively led into the subsequent dance time with backup dancers. Reflecting the digital generation's sense of romance in '♥beats,' the six members reappeared as a group to present a surprise debut of a new song titled 'LUCID DREAM.' This lead track from their Japanese 4th EP, set to release on May 27, is interpreted by the members as a work that faces oneself and is a space to be honest with emotions, rather than a place for escapism with the motif of 'dream.' The sound and choreography, radiating a different aura from previous IVE works, are sure to create a significant response. While singing 'WOW' and 'FLU,' they expressed their gratitude to the fans, leading into another MC time where they enjoyed a friendly atmosphere discussing their solo numbers. The stage then shifted to a series of energetic numbers as they approached the finale. 'ATTITUDE' samples Suzanne Vega's 'Tom's Diner,' but even without knowing that, it is a dance pop piece that captivates with its splendid melody line. This song further heated up the audience, leading to a series of killer tunes like 'LOVE DIVE -Japanese ver.-,' 'REBEL HEART,' and 'I AM.' The massive venue, shaking with deep bass, quickly transformed into a dance floor. The main show concluded with 'BANG BANG,' showcasing IVE's essence. In the encore, they rode a trolley around the venue while performing 'Wild Bird' and 'Fireworks,' returning to the center stage to express their gratitude one by one. Liz expressed, 'Thank you for creating such an important day for us,' followed by Iso saying, 'I was so happy to see your love shining.' Yujin commented, 'It was truly an emotional moment that we had been waiting for,' while Wonyoung greeted in dialect, 'It was really, really fun!' Gaul and Rei also conveyed their gratitude to the fans, saying, 'I believe our stage is complete because of all of you, DIVE,' and 'The time spent with DIVE is truly precious. I will not forget this feeling.' Each comment surely reached the hearts of everyone in the audience. To conclude, they passionately sang the popular song 'After LIKE,' bowing deeply together before reluctantly leaving the stage. Including the encore, the total duration was about two and a half hours. It goes without saying that captivating the audience from start to finish requires rigorous training and accumulated experience. In IVE's case, it seems that their daily efforts, along with the feelings they have for their fans, enhance the quality of their performances. This concert was a testament to that. The newly unveiled 'LUCID DREAM' expresses the importance of living true to one's heart, and as long as they maintain this attitude, they will continue to grow. IVE's next concert in Japan is on June 24 at Tokyo Dome for 'IVE WORLD TOUR 'SHOW WHAT I AM' IN JAPAN,' where fans should witness the group's current rise.
