”IVE” scouts actor Um Tae Goo to be the 7th member?

IVE appeared on a variety show ahead of their comeback. On the 24th, according to management office STARSHIP Entertainment, IVE recently appeared on a YouTube channel.
He appeared as a guest on Workman's web variety show, Simple Labor: Workman Side Story, where he worked alongside actor Um Tae Goo, who served as the MC.
In a video titled "IVE's youngest member, Tae Goo...?", IVE decided on a suitable nickname for their "member for the day," Um Tae Goo.
After much discussion, Lay's suggestion of "Daegu-chan" was chosen, and Um Tae Goo's confused reaction drew laughter.
Afterwards, IVE and Um Tae Goo made paper confetti for the party as part of their "Today's Task" and shared various stories.
During the event, talk of the new song "XOXZ," which is scheduled to be released on the 25th, was brought up, further raising fans' expectations. An Yu Jin said, "I want 'XOXO' to be like 'Kiss and
If "Hug" means "XOXZ", then we are "XOXZ". When you go to sleep, you see the "Zzz" sign. It's like sleeping with a loud snore. It means "Good night, I love you".
"I thought it would be fun to create a title that is unique to IVE," he explained.
It's a different feel from "HEART" and "ATTITUDE," but the performance is interesting and it has a new feel to it, so I really like it.
"IVE" then took the time to verify the virtues Um Tae Goo needs to have to become a member of "IVE" through the "7th member test."
In the process of deciding on Daegu's "signature animal," Liz suggested Neoguri (raccoon). Jang Won Young used Um Tae Goo's name and suggested the nickname "Daegu."
Furthermore, An Yu Jin added in a big way, completing his signature greeting with "Hello. It's Guri Guri, Teguri."
Jang Won Young mentioned Hot Topic's "Wonyoung Turn" and said, "I made 'Daegu Turn'.
"I'll help you," he suggested. He showed off his hand-spinning moves, drawing laughter again. In addition to this, various other ideas came out, and at the end of the "member test," Um Tae Goo said "IVE" at the end of the video.
They all scattered the finished confetti together and finished the photoshoot with a lot of fun. IVE will be releasing their fourth mini album, IVE
They will begin full-scale activities with the release of "SECRET" and the title track "XOXZ."
