IVE's new song receives lukewarm response from the netizens

雷達歐尼10/7/2023 1 min read

The popular girl group IVE, who will be returning on the 13th, had previously released the concepts for their three main tracks, stirring much anticipation among netizens. However, the response to their new song "Off The Record" which was released on the 6th was pretty average.

On the 6th, a post titled "What do you think of IVE's new song 'Off The Record'?" appeared on the online discussion forum, attracting netizens to check in and participate in hot discussions.

In the post, the netizen first shared the performance of the newly released song "Off The Record" on various popular charts. It ranked 78th on the Genie main chart, but did not make it into the TOP 100 of the Melon main chart.

In response to this, the netizens' reactions were not as good as the first main track "Either way". Most people thought that IVE's new song "Off The Record" sounded similar to FIFTY FIFTY's "Cupid".

Commenters said, "This song is too much like FIFTY FIFTY's tactic", "the song is indeed good to listen to, but it's so calm that I can't remember it. It doesn't have highlights like Kitsch", "No wonder I thought I've heard it somewhere, it's very similar to Cupid", "This song is worse than Either Way".

IVE's new song MV accused of plagiarizing NewJeans! The silly reason revealed makes the netizens explode: Who copied who?

On the 25th, popular girl group IVE revealed the music video for one of their comeback songs, "Either way," on their official channel. After the MV's release, netizens praised it for its favourable visuals. However, on the 27th, a discussion surfaced claiming that the content of the MV plagiarizes another girl group's, NewJeans, music video. On the 27th, a post causing heated discussions appeared on the online forum. The post, titled "IVE MV is very similar to NewJeans," was uploaded and attracted many netizens to join the never-ending debate. In the article, the netizen who wrote the post shared three scenes from IVE's new song "Either way" MV that are identical to those in the NewJeans' MV, and expressed that such similarities are unlikely to be a coincidence. Netizens pointed out three alleged plagiarism points. First, An Yu Jin's mischievous expression in front of the camera. Second, the members slowly emerging from the water. And third, the composition of each member's silhouette. Other netizens left comments in backlash, saying "Are you kidding me? The naughty expression has not only appeared in the NewJeans MV, but it has appeared countless times before" and "Wow! I'm speechless. It's obvious that the writer is a fan of NewJeans". "Scene of floating in the water had already been shot by aespa before the NewJeans MV, did NewJeans plagiarize aespa?" "Enough, stop stirring up the fans of IVE and NewJeans" "When it comes to the origin of mischievous expressions, it must be Rain Oppa XD". "At the same time, a minority of netizens expressed similar views, saying, 'when compared, they really look very similar', 'I really feel sorry for IVE, they actually plagiarized NewJeans' and other dissenting views." Editor: This netizen is too sensitive, isn't it? 😅😅

"The chorus actually sounds a bit like FIFTY FIFTY" "It really reminds me of FIFTY FIFTY's Cupid" "This song might not be the style the public would like" "It feels like IVE's style is gone, they've lost their identity."

However, there were netizens who stood up for it, commenting, "I think the song is very good," "The last song is the real title track," "I think the music is really good. The rank will definitely go up," and "Just focus on one song." These were some of the diverse reactions.

IVE's Jang Won Young's new look revealed! K-Pop

IVE's Jang Won Young's new look revealed!

The popular girl group IVE previously announced on their official SNS that they will be returning to the music scene with their first mini album 'I'VE MINE' on the 13th of next month. At the time, they posted 3 teaser posters of the title track in different styles, sparking anticipation among many fans. On the 24th, IVE's official Instagram released the concept photos of each member for the title track "Either Way" from their first mini album "I'VE MINE". Among them, the look of member Jang Wonyoung sparked a hot discussion among netizens. From the photo, it can be seen that Jang Wonyoung, who has always had long black hair, has made a breakthrough in her hair color by challenging herself to dye her hair golden. This has brought a great surprise to many fans and netizens, sparking polarized debates among them. In fact, two days ago, IVE officially released a preview and audio snippet of "Either Way". At that time, many netizens were wondering if Jang Wonyoung had dyed her hair blonde, but it was difficult to tell because the preview was presented in black and white. After the colored concept photos were released yesterday, it immediately sparked heated discussions among netizens. Many commented, "It suits her better than imagined," "Jang Wonyoung looks good whether she's blonde or not," "Dyeing her hair also suits Jang Wonyoung." "Wow! The recent planning of Starship is driving me crazy, is this the Starship I know?" "Wow! Jang Wonyoung, who usually only has black hair, has actually switched to blonde." "Super beautiful." "It feels like Y2K." At the same time, there were quite a few netizens who had reactions like "It's too ordinary, there's nothing to say", "Seems like black hair looks better", "Even though she's blonde like Liz, she's clearly not as pretty as Liz", "It doesn't suit her", "She seems to have become less attractive", and other dissenting opinions.
