A completed, not growth-type, girls’ group! IVE’s most popular songs ranked (21–30)
Blue Bloodive22rank/position
Blue Blood by the six-member girl group IVE.
This track opens their first album, I’ve IVE, released in 2023.
With a satisfyingly thick bass and a striking, hip-hop-tinged intro, the song stands out.
Rather than a purely pop tone, it captivates with a mysterious atmosphere that feels like something is about to begin.
Another highlight is its powerful individuality—you can tell it’s IVE from the very first listen.
The album is packed with other great songs as well, so be sure to listen all the way through.
SummerLIZ (IVE)23rank/position
An insert song for the drama “Love on a Single-Log Bridge,” sung by IVE’s Liz as her first solo OST.
It begins with gentle piano tones, and Liz’s clear, transparent vocals sink deep into the heart.
The lyrics, depicting a love that remains unchanged across time, perfectly match the drama’s worldview.
Released on December 15, 2024, this work showcases her appeal not only as a member of IVE but also as a solo artist.
It’s a recommended track for those nursing a bittersweet love or looking to reflect on memories with someone precious.
Willive24rank/position
This is the opening theme that plays in the new chapter “Terastal Debut” of the TV anime Pokémon.
It’s performed by the globally popular group IVE.
Wow—the positive, energetic vibe with themes of friendship and adventure is irresistible! The song conveys a strong will to move forward into the future with the bonds you share with your friends close to your heart.
Released in April 2024, this marks IVE’s first-ever anime tie-in.
The members have reportedly loved Pokémon since they were young, and that pure affection shines through in the sparkling sound and vocals.
If you listen to it when taking a new step or working toward a goal with your companions, it’ll surely give you a powerful push forward.
Later included on the mini-album “ALIVE,” it’s a perfect track for the start of an adventure!
Sunny DayANYUJIN (IVE)25rank/position
Ahn Yujin, who serves as the leader of IVE, released a new song in April 2025 as part of the OST for the tvN drama “Someday, A Wise Resident Life.” With its bright, refreshing melody and warm vocals, the track is pleasantly uplifting, as if giving a supportive push to young people striving to move forward.
This marks Yujin’s first participation in a drama OST.
Brimming with a clarity like a clear blue sky and wrapped in a gently comforting voice, it also makes an excellent BGM choice for a relaxing day off.
Nightly Misadventureive26rank/position
It may resonate especially with those who are searching for a place where they belong.
This is a song by the Vocaloid producer ive, who drew attention with their debut track “People Become Ghosts,” and it was released in 2020.
The piece has a mysterious atmosphere, achieving a blend of quietness and grandeur.
Hatsune Miku’s slightly husky vocals fit it perfectly.
Late at night, when you’re alone, you tend to drift into all sorts of thoughts; the lyrics convey that kind of wavering of the heart.
ELEVEN (Japanese ver.)ive27rank/position
It was a massive hit in Korea and has been released in a Japanese version, so even K-pop beginners can handle the lyrics steadily.
I mostly remember hearing it on cable radio, and the chorus kind of stuck in my ears.
There are many places where the melody line is sharply cut, so the key is to keep the rhythm from slipping.
Since there are also bouncy rhythms, it helps to use your body well and keep a fine, precise pulse.
Also, the section before the chorus slows down, then it picks up speed from the chorus, so be careful not to rush the tempo.
If you consciously sing with a bright tone at all times, you can switch more easily without your pitch dropping, even when the rhythm or melody changes!
Don’t tell clumsy lies.ive28rank/position
The repeating piano phrase, symphonic strings, and Hatsune Miku’s fragile vocals leave a strong impression.
It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer ive, released in 2019.
The lyrics, with their dark word choices—enough to make you think of a “night without a single light”—really pierce the heart.
Yet what comes through is a single-minded devotion to someone precious.
Fear and wistfulness intermingle, creating a unique atmosphere.
It’s a gloomy song that might make you cry before you even realize it.
