IVE World Tour captivated Seoul audiences through dynamic Band Performance and heartfelt Connection with Fans. The group displayed artistic growth with powerful solos, live arrangements, and emotional gratitude. Across three thrilling nights, IVE proved their evolution as confident performers ready to inspire the world.
Electrifying Start Sets the Tone for IVE World Tour
IVE (An Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Jang Wonyoung, Liz, and Leeseo) ignited the KSPO DOME in Seoul with unstoppable energy on November 2. The group kicked off the second leg of SHOW WHAT I AM, their latest world tour, captivating more than 28,000 fans over three sold-out nights. From the very first beat, the show proved to be a celebration of growth, confidence, and artistic expansion.
Compared to their 2023 tour, this year’s production felt more cinematic and immersive. The members opened with explosive tracks like “XOXZ,” “Baddie,” and “Accendio,” filling the dome with thunderous cheers. Liz urged the audience to give their all, reminding everyone it was the final Seoul show. Without missing a beat, IVE kept the momentum going with “TKO,” “Holy Moly,” and “My Satisfaction,” blending fierce choreography with effortless charm.
Expressing True Identity Through SHOW WHAT I AM
The concert’s theme, SHOW WHAT I AM, embodied IVE’s artistic statement—showing their authentic selves through music and movement. Each member took the stage to reveal a distinct side of her personality.
Jang Wonyoung performed “8,” Rei poured emotion into “In Your Heart,” Liz shone with “Unreal,” Gaeul mesmerized with “Odd,” Leeseo delivered “Super Icy,” and An Yujin powered through “Force.” Every solo reflected growth and individuality, reaffirming that IVE has evolved beyond a hit-making group into confident performers with creative depth.
Leeseo shared that she co-wrote her solo track’s lyrics and experimented with a new dance genre for the first time. “It was thrilling and scary,” she said. “But I wanted to challenge myself and tell my own story.”
IVE World Tour Highlights Innovation with Live Band Sound
Beyond their signature hits, IVE elevated their show with fresh arrangements and unexpected sounds. They reimagined songs like “ATTITUDE,” “LOVE DIVE,” and “I AM” in dynamic live band versions, bringing a new level of power to the stage. The additions of “♥beats” and “FLU” added vibrant textures to the already-packed setlist.
Gaeul revealed that she helped choreograph “♥beats,” creating playful moves that matched the song’s upbeat spirit. “I wanted the dance to feel natural and fun,” she explained, “and the members nailed it perfectly.”
An Yujin mentioned that performing title tracks with live instruments gave fans something special. Jang Wonyoung thanked the band, saying their presence made every moment richer. Fans online later praised the rock-inspired “My Satisfaction,” calling it one of the concert’s most electrifying performances.
IVE World Tour Resonates with Emotion and Gratitude
As the encore arrived, IVE returned to the stage with “Supernova Love” and “After Like,” closing their 150-minute set with infectious energy and heartfelt emotion. The atmosphere felt both grand and intimate, as the members shared gratitude with fans who filled the dome for three consecutive nights.
An Yujin reflected on her journey, saying she spent time thinking about which version of herself she wanted to share. “There’s so much I want to express,” she said. “Thank you for filling this venue with love for three days. Let’s meet at an even bigger stage next time.”
Liz added that unlike their first tour, this one incorporated the members’ creative ideas. She thanked DIVE for helping them finish strong and said, “I don’t usually believe in forever, but with DIVE, I truly hope it’s possible.”
Personal Growth and Stronger Connection with DIVE
Each member revealed how the tour deepened their connection with fans. Leeseo said she gained strength from DIVE’s warm support and hoped that energy reached back to the audience. Jang Wonyoung shared that performing in front of fans gave new meaning to her work and made every moment special.
Gaeul admitted she had many doubts during preparation but found confidence once the lights hit the stage. “I realized I can stand as my true self when I’m with DIVE,” she said. “This time, I feel more grounded and complete.”
Rei confessed she was nervous about fitting everything into the tight schedule but ended up enjoying every second. “Even though the Seoul shows ended, IVE World Tour is just beginning,” she said. “We’ll meet DIVE around the world with even more to show.”
Fan Praise and Global Expectations Ahead
After the final Seoul show, online communities like MLBPARK buzzed with excitement. Fans praised IVE’s dazzling visuals, intricate stage design, and most of all, the powerful band performances that opened the concert. The first eight songs featured live band versions, which audiences said brought an entirely new energy to the group’s music.
Many fans were especially impressed with the final band version of “My Satisfaction,” calling it strong enough to pass as a genuine rock number.
