[SPOTV News reporter Kim Won-gyeom] Despite wrapping up promotion for their second full-length album REVIVE+, K-pop powerhouse IVE is still making major waves on the charts.
According to multiple domestic music charts, IVE’s pre-release single “BANG BANG” from REVIVE+ held the No. 1 spot on Melon’s weekly chart (March 2–8), marking its second consecutive week at the top. The track also led Genie and Bugs’ weekly charts for three straight weeks, underscoring its sustained streaming strength. On YouTube Korea’s weekly popular artist chart (Feb. 27–March 5), IVE remained No. 1 for a fourth consecutive week.
IVE’s footprint also registered strongly on Hanteo Chart, where the group topped both the World Chart and the Social Chart for February. They then reached No. 1 on Hanteo’s weekly World Chart (March 2–8), while “BANG BANG” claimed the weekly digital chart crown as well — a sign of their broad, measurable impact.
Released as a pre-release on Feb. 9, “BANG BANG” achieved a Perfect All-Kill (PAK) across major domestic charts — the first PAK among this year’s releases and the sixth in the group’s career.
The album’s momentum is driven by the twin appeal of its double title tracks. “BANG BANG” has captured global fans with its EDM-infused production and high-energy choreography, while the other title track, “BLACK HOLE,” has gained traction for its sweeping cinematic sound and its message of empowerment and hope. “BLACK HOLE” settled at No. 5 on Bugs’ weekly chart and climbed to No. 11 on Melon, positioning it for long-term success.
Across music shows, IVE wrapped their promotional cycle with eight wins for “BANG BANG” and “BLACK HOLE,” closing broadcast activities on a high note. With strong showings on both domestic and international charts, the ongoing “IVE phenomenon” shows no signs of slowing as the group prepares to launch their second world tour, SHOW WHAT I AM, in April across Asia, Europe, the Americas and Oceania.
Before the tour begins, IVE will stage their 2026 fourth fan concert, DIVE INTO IVE, for two days — the 21st and 22nd — at Incheon Inspire Arena, where they will reconnect with fans ahead of the world trek.
