Following ‘Music Core’, they took first place on SBS ‘Inkigayo’, making them a four-time winner.

Through their agency Starship Entertainment, Ive said, “We are happy just to be able to show many people the stage of our pre-released title song ‘Rebel Heart’, but we are so happy and grateful to have received an award four times in a row. It is especially an honor to receive an award on ‘Inkigayo’, where Lee Seo is an MC.” They shared their thoughts, saying, “We would like to say that it is all thanks to DIVE (official fan club name), and we would also like to tell them that the support you always send us is a great strength. We will continue to show you a good side of ourselves so that we can repay you, so please show lots of interest in our ‘Ive Empathy’ album and double title song ‘Attitude’, which will be released on February 3. “Happy New Year, and I hope you have a joyful and happy Seollal holiday,” he said.

The new song ‘Rebel Heart’ is the pre-released title song of Ive’s third mini-album ‘Ive Empathy’, which will be released on February 3rd, and depicts the solidarity march of rebels with various narratives. Through ‘Rebel Heart’, Ive presents warm comfort and empathy with a more mature perspective and viewpoint, and proves once again their unique identity by showing ‘Ive‘s New Style’, which is derived from the theme of ‘Subjective Self-Confidence’. From settling in the top ranks of domestic and international music charts to winning four awards on music shows, anticipation for their comeback has grown even before the release of their album.
