The 'MZ wannabe icon' IVE (IVE: An Yujin, Fall, RAY, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, Iseo) surprised fans with a special gift.
On the 14th, their agency, Starship Entertainment, posted a video titled '[Special Clip] IVE 'TKO' @3rd FAN CONCERT 'IVE SCOUT'' on IVE's official YouTube channel. The video contains the stage of the new song 'TKO,' which was first revealed during the third fan concert 'IVE SCOUT' on the 5th and 6th.
'TKO' is a song that blends a rhythmic hip-hop rhythm with a groovy 808 BASS sound, featuring intense lyrics using the 'professional boxing' concept, such as 'Put it in straight with ease,' 'Get on the ring quickly,' and 'I will show you / a perfect TKO.' Member Fall participated directly in the choreography production for the fan concert stage.
The released video began with leader An Yujin's rap. The explosive rapping that penetrated the sound overwhelmed the atmosphere at once, and the members immediately filled the stage with a dynamic and powerful performance.
With bold dance lines offering a surprising charm, the choreography created by member Fall is present throughout, from movements of sitting with legs apart and hitting the floor to formations resembling a ring and a 3-3 dance break, adding visual enjoyment.
Even with intense choreography, the unwavering live performance also drew admiration. IVE demonstrated their proven skills through an encore live that topped music shows and a major global festival, perfectly captivating fans with a vivid live performance that could even be heard in their breathing.
Previously, IVE successfully completed the fan concert 'IVE SCOUT' at the KSPO Dome (formerly the gymnastics stadium) in Seoul. The performance recorded a complete sell-out for all sessions after a fierce ticketing battle, and IVE, who prepared the 'TKO' stage for the fan concert, released this special clip video, alleviating the disappointment of fans who could not attend.
Meanwhile, IVE successfully concluded the Nagoya performance of their Japan fan concert tour 'IVE SCOUT' IN JAPAN on the 12th and 13th. They will continue the tour on the 21st and 22nd starting from Fukuoka, moving on to Kobe, Yokohama, and other locations.
