• Netizens want more of IVE singing and dancing to NewJeans "HYPE BOY" at 2022 KCON

    On October 13, IVE went to Japan for the 2022 KCON and was seen at the Gimpo International Airport.

    The next day, on October 14, KCON took place, and the girls performed an excellent snippet of their cover for NewJeans' "HYPE BOY," which is being talked about in many online communities.

    The MC asked the members of IVE, who were all dressed in white, if they knew the song "HYPE BOY" by NewJeans. Yujin and Gaeul stepped up to dance, while other members, especially Liz, took care of the singing.

    On that day, the members of IVE showed off their charm and a hint of sensuality that fit the song perfectly.

    The video of IVE singing and dancing to the song was shared on many social media sites and online communities, where people gathered to praise the girl group.

    Netizens commented:

    Liz's voice tone is really, really good.

    I want to hear the whole song sung by Liz.

    Gaeul danced wellㅋㅋㅋㅋ.

    Was it Liz who sang? Her voice sound is way cool.

    Putting aside the dance, their singing was insane.

    The more I watch Hype Boy, the more I realize how hard it is to dance like that. It's hard to look good when you're dancing.

    The tones of Liz and Rei's voices go well together.

    Have Liz sing the whole song, please.

    I don't think Yujin really knows how to dance ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ. She's funny and cute at the same time.

    Liz, please ask her to sing the song as it was written. I really like Gaeul, Yujin, and Liz these days.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
