IVE continues winning the awards, winning its 7th award with "Mewban" on 9/9
冠ラッシュ続くIVE、9/9「ミューバン」で7冠目
★ IVE has won their 7th music show award with their new song "After Like".
Music Bank was suspended on September 9th, so the show announced the rankings through their official website.
According to the rankings, IVE's "After Like" beat out TWICE's "Talk That Talk" to take the No. 1 spot for the second week of September.
With this, IVE has now achieved their 7th comeback award.
The official MV for IVE's "After Like" has now been viewed 82.65 million times.
Although the broadcast of "Mewban" on 9/9 was suspended, the released video has already reached 390,000 views in one day.
"After Like" seems to be being watched and listened to everywhere.
It's clear that their popularity is spreading not only in Korea but also overseas.
It's no wonder that they are often heard on Japanese radio and in supermarkets.
This is their seventh music TV award.
Their rivals in terms of popularity and momentum are BlackPink and NewJeans, but BlackPink has not appeared on the stage many times.
NewJeans is popular but their activities are spread out over a few days, which is a weakness.
TWICE's "Talk That Talk" was a formidable opponent, but they ended their activities quickly.
There don't seem to be any promising girls making a comeback anytime soon, so it looks like the battle for the title next week will revolve around IVE.
Even so, I never get tired of watching their "After Like" performance.
They're so popular that I'm starting to worry about a backlash.
However, if they can maintain their popularity with this song, there seems to be no need to rush to prepare their next song.
If they take their time to work on their next song, the performance will surely be better.
IVE amplifies the appeal of their stage performance without making you worry about how good their singing or dancing is.
Singing, dancing, and visuals are already old news.
Well, that's universal, but we're in an age where we can look at them in a different way than how old they are.
Just being there makes them a picture and draws the viewer in.
And you want to watch them forever.
Idol groups with such a strong presence rarely come along.
IVE proved this at the stage venue of a Japanese music carnival.
Many K-pop fans flocked to the venue and enjoyed the multiple stages.
The venue prepared for IVE was not very large.
That would have been a sign that IVE was not the main artist of the day.
However, that was not necessarily the case.
It was only natural that DIVE would head to the venue when IVE's stage was about to begin.
The capacity of the venue must have been calculated and prepared in advance.
However, the behavior of many fans betrayed that.
As the time for IVE to perform approached, not only IVE fans, but also fans who have their favorite singers or groups (?), and even omnivores all began to move towards the location where IVE was performing.
As a result, the stage venue where DIVE wanted to see was so crowded with people that IVE could not even be seen.
It was a huge inconvenience for DIVE, but they may have had a little taste of superiority from thinking, "Look, look at our favorite!"
Like BlackPink, who wowed fans all over the world with their "Pink Venom" performance, IVE seems to have become a girls group that captures the hearts of fans with the charm of their performance and presence itself.
