EMPATHY held a comeback countdown live to commemorate the release of their released preview song "Rebel Heart."
After exchanging greetings with DIVE (the name of their fan club), whom they hadn't seen in a while, IVE introduced the titles of two songs before starting their talk.
Jang Won Young spoke about the reason why he decided to release a preview of "Rebel Heart" out of the title songs. He said, "It was a song that touched my heart from the first time I heard it.
As it is the beginning of a new year, I thought I could provide comfort and empathy to those who are starting something new or continuing with what they have been doing, so I decided to make this my choice."
After that, IVE started to talk about the album in earnest. Lay said,
"As the name suggests, 'EMPATHY' is a story about empathy.
In Bam, I talked about 'self-love' and put the spotlight on myself. With this album, I wanted to tell a story about empathy from various perspectives."
Ga Eul continued, "As IVE has grown, I wanted to show that we have grown in music as well. I want to grow from 'I', look around, empathize with the pain and hurt of those around me, and share in their pain."
The members added, "Please don't forget the release on February 3rd. DIVE members, please wait. You may think that everything is over in the Lunar New Year, but
"IVE" also added to the fun by discussing concept photos, concept films, and trailer videos.
While talking about concept photos, Liz confessed, "We took all the photos with a film camera. We couldn't monitor them," and Gaeul said, "We took all the photos with a film camera. We couldn't monitor them."
The members surprised the fans by revealing that they would be wearing crowns. In the middle of the talk, they also did not forget to communicate with the fans. The members were in a friendly atmosphere as they directly checked the fans' reactions.
Leading a loving atmosphere, in response to a fan's request to do a spoiler of the choreography for the new song, he performed a powerful choreography of clenching his fists and resisting the lyrics of "Hate me."
After discussing various anecdotes about the teasing content, the members also shared behind-the-scenes stories from the music video shoot.
The members introduced that the music video was shot entirely on location in Japan, and that they each played young people with different backgrounds. Gaul said, "This album is a story about empathy.
"So, not only us, but many other ordinary people are also appearing in the album. We wanted to make it an album that not only we, but everyone can relate to," he added.
Just before the release preview, "IVE" gave their fans a special moment, and each member of the band shared their thoughts and aspirations to close the live show.
I'm also preparing to run as hard as I can. I've shot a lot of content and there's a lot of stuff that's going to be released," he said, raising expectations.
"I would be happy if everyone would show lots of love to "Heart"DIVE, and I hope everyone will look forward to the title song on February 3rd," he reiterated.
