Ive has transformed into Cupids with different secrets.
Starship Entertainment released the trailer for their 4th mini album 'IVE SECRET' on YouTube on the 8th. They presented the 'Evil Cupid' concept.
Ive boldly flipped the traditional bright and lovely Cupid image. They dropped a tumbler, made a finger cross gesture, and revealed a hidden revolver from the 'Cupid Guidebook'.
Scenes with a cool atmosphere continued throughout the video. The members' happiness revealed under natural daylight symbolically showcased the secret side of Cupids, creating a strange tension.
Starting from the middle of the video, the mood shifted. The members aimed their revolver at a unicorn and burned paper cranes, showcasing actions contrary to the pure image of Cupids.
Ive made their entrance dressed in black, appearing in the darkness. Some new audio from the album was also previewed, hinting at a strong message with the lyrics, "Unveiling the secret myth / Good and evil coexist right on my face."
The new album breaks free from predictable narratives, bringing hidden attitudes and multidimensional identities to the surface. Through the title track 'XOXZ' and other songs, it demonstrates how opposing emotions such as inside and outside, good and evil can coexist within a single team.
Meanwhile, Ive will release their 4th mini album 'IVE SECRET' on major music streaming sites at 6 PM on the 25th.
