IVE (안유진, 가을, 레이, 장원영, 리즈, 이서) captivated audiences during the 2024 MBC 가요대제전, which aired on January 29 and 30. The group showcased a variety of performances, including full group and unit stages. They kicked off the event with their debut track 'ELEVEN', exuding elegance in white outfits that highlighted their growth in stage presence and performance skills since their debut.

Continuing the momentum, IVE delivered powerful performances of 'Accendio' and 'HEYA'. Dressed in burgundy leather coats, they created an agent-like vibe, captivating the audience with their pair choreography before launching into a mesmerizing rendition of 'Accendio'. The performance featured a thrilling dance break complemented by dazzling laser effects.

In their 'HEYA' stage, IVE showcased a different charm with black styling. The intuitive choreography matched the lyrics, particularly a standout move that seemed to swallow the sun, demonstrating their solid vocal abilities and reinforcing their title as the '4th Generation Queens'.

Beyond the full group performances, the unit stages left a lasting impression. An Yujin teamed up with '뿅뿅 지구오락실' members Lee Eun-ji, Mimi, and Lee Young-ji to form 'Chemies', performing 2NE1's hits 'Fire' and 'I Am the Best'. An Yujin, taking on Park Bom's role, delivered a high-energy performance filled with girl crush charisma, particularly shining during the 'Fire' stage with a captivating finger-drawing choreography.

Additionally, Rei and Liz joined forces with STAYC's Jae and Yoon to form 'Best Friends', performing KARA's 'Rock U'. Their yellow checkered school looks maintained the original song's fresh and lively vibe while adding their unique chemistry to create a refreshing stage.

IVE is set to make a significant comeback with their third mini-album 'IVE EMPATHY' and double title track 'ATTITUDE' on February 3. They recently celebrated a successful start, achieving five music show wins with their pre-release title track 'REBEL HEART', which was released on January 13.
