The "MZ Wannabe Icon" IVE (Ahn Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, Lee Seo) is set to reveal their exclusive high-quality performance on 'K-909.'

IVE is scheduled to present their 37th Golden Disk Awards with TikTok (hereinafter 'Golden Disk Awards') performance for the first time today (May 6th) through JTBC's high-quality global music show 'K-909.' In January, IVE was unable to perform at the awards ceremony in Thailand due to COVID-19 and only participated in the awards and acceptance speeches.

At the 'Golden Disk Awards,' IVE won the title of Triple Crown by winning the Rookie of the Year award, as well as the Digital Music Division Main Award and the Digital Music Division Grand Prize through 'LOVE DIVE.' This was the first time in the 37-year history of the 'Golden Disk Awards' ceremony, making it even more meaningful. Additionally, IVE's overall producer, Seo Hyun-ju, also received the Producer Award, adding to their glory.

IVE, who has earned the title of "first in the history of the awards ceremony" at the 'Golden Disk Awards,' which is known as the "dream stage for artists" and boasts deep tradition and history, has drawn attention by announcing that they will unveil the performance they couldn't show at the 'Golden Disk Awards' for the first time through 'K-909.'

IVE, who took the 'K-909' stage, said, "We were very disappointed that we couldn't show the performance we prepared for the 'Golden Disk Awards' to our fans due to COVID-19 at the time, but we're very fortunate and happy to present it through 'K-909.'" They added, "We've prepared a fantastic performance exclusively for 'K-909,' so please give us a lot of attention."

Last year, IVE swept various major music site annual charts, TikTok's most-used songs, and various awards ceremonies with 'LOVE DIVE,' gaining phenomenal popularity. They also achieved four consecutive mega-hits with their first full-length album 'I've IVE,' released on April 10th.

The double title songs 'Kitsch' and 'I AM' from 'I've IVE' not only achieved a 'perfect all-kill' on music sites but also swept the first and second place on the charts for the entire month of April. The album also sold over 1.1 million copies in its first week, entering the ranks of consecutive million-sellers.

Meanwhile, IVE's appearance on JTBC's 'K-909' will be broadcast today (May 6th) at 4:40 PM.
