IVE released a coming soon film and announced their comeback. The agency STARSHIP Entertainment published the coming soon films "Wonyoung Edition" and "Iso Edition" through IVE's official SNS channel today (21st), signaling the start of their new album. The released Wonyoung coming soon film provided a strong immersive experience with a sensory direction that overwhelms the screen just with its atmosphere. The sound of Wonyoung's whistling and rhythmic footsteps echoed in a quiet corridor, heightening the mysterious tension, and Wonyoung, appearing in a white trench coat, radiated a cold yet elegant aura. In particular, Wonyoung, holding a red apple and heading somewhere, strongly stimulated curiosity, reminiscent of a famous scene from the movie "Kill Bill," maximizing expectations for the new album. At the end of the video, a countdown towards "February 9 at 6 PM" began, raising anticipation for the pre-release track ahead of their comeback at the end of February. The following Iso coming soon film featured a novel direction resembling an interview in a shooting studio, sparking curiosity. Iso showcased a glamorous visual in a pink dress and left a meaningful hint in English to the camera, saying, "This is a secret, but I saw Wonyoung unnie perfectly dressed up and going out at midnight." This closely connected to Wonyoung's mysterious outing scene from the first film, stimulating interest in the story of the new album. Particularly, in this video, Iso displayed a dramatic temperature difference, mastering the atmosphere. Iso innocently smiled while saying, "I can't tell you where she went," but transformed into a serious expression when putting on sunglasses, exuding intense charisma. At this moment, the harmony of the deep green background filling the screen and the sunglasses completed a mysterious aura reminiscent of the movie "The Matrix," enhancing the tension. While Wonyoung's film captured an overwhelming mood reminiscent of "Kill Bill," Iso provided a contrasting direction, delivering a thrill as if watching a cinematic series. Towards the end of the video, along with the countdown to "February 9 at 6 PM" following the first released video, the same guitar riff resonated, further heightening the excitement for the comeback. This comeback marks about six months since the release of their 4th mini-album "IVE SECRET" in August last year, drawing attention from listeners both domestically and internationally for the new steps they will take through this first release of the year. IVE, announcing their comeback at the end of February, plans to sequentially release coming soon films to accelerate their steps towards the comeback.
