The MZ generation's wannabe icon IVE has once again won 1st place on a music program. On March 4, aired on MBC M and MBC every1 'SHOW CHAMPION', IVE secured 1st place for the 1st week of March through their 2nd full album's double title track 'BLACKHOLE'. This achievement adds to their previous wins with the pre-released double title track 'BANG BANG', which had already earned them four music program wins including Mnet 'M COUNTDOWN', MBC 'Show Music Core', KBS 2TV 'Music Bank', and SBS 'Inkigayo', totaling five wins for the 2nd full album with the addition of 'BLACKHOLE' at 'SHOW CHAMPION'. Notably, this 1st place was achieved without appearing on the program, further proving IVE's strong popularity. Through their agency STARSHIP Entertainment, IVE commented, 'We are really happy to have won 1st place with 'BLACKHOLE'. This meaningful gift is all thanks to the support of DIVE (the name of their fans).' They continued, 'Thanks to the love we received from the pre-released song 'BANG BANG', we are carrying out activities for 'BLACKHOLE' with happiness. We will work hard to show even more diverse colors unique to IVE in our remaining activities, so please continue to support us.' The double title track 'BLACKHOLE', released on the 2nd full album 'REVIVE+', features a cinematic sound and shuffled rhythm, conveying a message about the present IVE is facing and a leap towards greater heights. With lyrics that express hope, such as 'If you wish for it, anything can come true', it redefines IVE's unique narcissism and is loved both domestically and internationally. The success of the pre-released double title track 'BANG BANG' continues as well. After its release, 'BANG BANG' dominated the real-time TOP 100 and daily charts of Korea's major music streaming services, achieving a perfect all-kill. As of 8 AM on the 5th, it continues to maintain its top position and shows steady growth on global charts. With their 2nd full album, IVE continues to showcase their broad musicality with 'BLACKHOLE' following 'BANG BANG'. Given that 'BLACKHOLE' won 1st place on 'SHOW CHAMPION', there is heightened interest in their future achievements. IVE will appear on Mnet 'M COUNTDOWN' today (the 5th) to continue their activities for the new song 'BLACKHOLE'.
