IVE has intensified anticipation for their return.

On February 17, Starship Entertainment unveiled the "Bangers" concept film for IVE's second full-length album, REVIVE+. The video teases an energetic, addictive track built to make listeners move.

The film opens with the line, "Isn't it boring?" The members gather among a crowd, moving to a restrained rhythm before the shout, "Say it out loud!" shifts the atmosphere. As the beat accelerates, the mood flips. IVE embraces freedom, dancing through the city like modern-day outlaws, delivering a cinematic sense of immersion.

From Western Outlaws to Urban Rebels

Earlier on February 9, IVE appeared as Western-era outlaws in the pre-release music video for BANG BANG. In the new concept film, they transform into urban renegades, expanding their narrative universe.

The members deliver a clear message: they refuse to be confined by predefined frames and will raise their voices louder—together. By organically connecting two contrasting concepts, IVE builds momentum toward the other title track, BLACKHOLE.

An Album Expanding From "Me" to "We"

REVIVE+ broadens IVE's storytelling perspective. While their previous narratives centered on "me," this album shifts toward "us," emphasizing solidarity beyond individual subjectivity.

The 12-track album features BLACKHOLE, a grand, beat-driven song that captures attention instantly. Ethereal falsetto layers blend with powerful high notes, balancing delicacy and intensity.

IVE will release REVIVE+ on major music platforms at 6 PM on February 23.
