IVE (An Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, and Leeseo) will release a new album next year.
On December 1, their agency, Starship Entertainment, announced, "On the occasion of IVE's 3rd debut anniversary, the group is preparing for a comeback as Starship's first major act of 2025, aiming to release their new album in January. With the growth they've shown throughout this year's world tour, we ask for your continued support as IVE takes another leap forward."
Leader An Yujin shared her thoughts through the agency, saying, "The world tour felt like a dream come true. Thanks to DIVE (official fan club name) warmly welcoming us in every city, I was incredibly happy. It was also a great opportunity to strengthen our bond as members."
She continued, "To all the DIVEs who were waiting for our comeback this fall, and to everyone who loves IVE, we are working tirelessly together with the members, President Seo, and many staff members to prepare for our comeback next year. Although it’s taking some time, I hope you’re looking forward to our return in 2025. Today marks our 3rd debut anniversary, and thanks to DIVE, IVE has received so much love, which makes us truly happy. I hope you enjoy the rest of the year with IVE's performances and get ready to start 2025 running together with us."
Since their debut on December 1, 2021, IVE has achieved remarkable success with hits like ELEVEN, LOVE DIVE, After Like, I’ve IVE, I’VE MINE, and IVE SWITCH. The group has consistently dominated domestic and international music charts, won awards on music shows and at major award ceremonies, and continued an unstoppable trajectory.
In addition to their music, IVE has steadily honed their skills through various performances. Beginning in October last year, their world tour spanned 19 countries, 28 cities, and 37 performances, making them the first 4th-generation K-pop girl group to perform at the KSPO Dome (formerly Gymnastics Stadium) and to sell out Japan's Tokyo Dome. They also showcased their extraordinary talent and unique presence on prominent global stages, including Lollapalooza Chicago in the U.S. and Summer Sonic 2024 in Japan this past August, achieving meteoric success.
Proving their status as a leading fourth-generation girl group, IVE recently won a triple crown at both the 2024 MAMA Awards and the 2024 Melon Music Awards (MMA 2024), showcasing their remarkable presence.
Their upcoming album, set for release next year, will be their first in nine months since the release of their second EP, IVE SWITCH, in April. With IVE's dazzling achievements this year, anticipation is high to see if they will once again dominate the music scene.
