IVE, which debuted in Korea in 2021 and has rapidly grown into a global phenomenon, has released its EP "Looks Can Kill." The six-track EP includes the title song "Looks Can Kill," which was pre-released on October 19 at 6 p.m. The work begins with the concept of a "hero who can deliver a fatal blow simply by existing." While continuing the "Girl Fantasy" character IVE has shown so far, it presents a new "Girl Hero" as another ego following Cupid and a magical girl.

To commemorate the start of EP distribution, music streaming services are also running campaigns offering signed solo instant photos and group wide instant photos, drawing attention.
