Start at the beginning. Follow IVE through 6 selected chapters.

  1. 012021 · Debut

    ELEVEN

    IVE’s first single begins a sequence that continues through LOVE DIVE and After LIKE. It also became the foundation of the group’s Japanese debut in 2022, when a Japanese version was released. The original video is the starting point for both paths: the early Korean singles and a growing parallel Japanese catalogue.

  2. 022022 · Second single

    LOVE DIVE

    LOVE DIVE is the second single in IVE’s opening run, released between ELEVEN and After LIKE. A Japanese version followed in January 2023, extending the song’s life beyond its original release. This chapter connects the tightly focused Korean single sequence with the cross-language catalogue that becomes increasingly important in later years.

  3. 032022 · Completing the early run

    After LIKE

    The third single turns the question of attraction into a request for action. Its release notes describe a combination of EDM, pop and house, driven by the kick rhythm. After ELEVEN and LOVE DIVE, this is a more explicit declaration of what the narrator wants, carried by a bright dance arrangement.

  4. 042023 · First full album

    I AM

    I’ve IVE · Full Album

    I’ve IVE moves the group into the full-album format, with “I AM” as a central way in. This is a useful moment to pause the video sequence and explore the surrounding tracks. The catalogue is now large enough to reveal more than the successive single statements of the debut period.

  5. 052025 · The EMPATHY era

    REBEL HEART

    “REBEL HEART” arrived ahead of IVE EMPATHY, giving listeners an early introduction to that project. Including a pre-release here shows another way the group’s albums reach the audience: a chapter can begin before the complete record arrives. The official video archive separates this January release from the February album.

  6. 062026 · Japanese catalogue

    LUCID DREAM

    LUCID DREAM · Japanese Release

    The fourth Japanese EP brings together new Japanese originals and Japanese versions of songs from the EMPATHY era. Its title track offers a route into that parallel catalogue. It connects naturally to “REBEL HEART,” which appears in Japanese on the same release, while also introducing material written for this project.
