According to Hanteo Chart, an album sales aggregation site on the 11th, IVE’s second single ‘LOVE DIVE’, which was released on the 5th, had sold 306,622 copies until the previous day. This is a figure that has doubled from the 150,000 copies sold in the first week (week of release) of the debut album ‘Eleven’.
IVE recorded the highest sales record for a girl group debut album with ‘ELEVEN’.
With ‘LOVE DIVE’, they made a record as a ‘monster rookie’.
If you look at Melon’s Top 100 24Hits (as of 2 PM on the 11th KST), ‘LOVE DIVE’ is ranked 4th and ‘Eleven’ is ranked 11th.
The curiosity is growing as to how many trophies IVE will collect with ‘LOVE DIVE’, after winning 13 trophies on music shows with ‘Eleven’.
Hyundai Motor Securities released an investment analysis report on Kakao on the same day and said, “IVE, who debuted at the end of last year, is approaching the top position as a next-generation girl group. It is expected to outperform the growth rate.”
Ahn Yujin said, “Even though IVE is a newcomer who has just debuted, thank you for calling us a group that represents a generation.”
