On the 12th and 13th, IVE held a Nagoya performance at the Aichi Sky Expo in Nagoya, Japan, as part of the Japan Fancon Tour 'IVE Scout'IN JAPAN'. While local fans also expressed extraordinary expectations for Ray's first fan concert in Nagoya, his hometown, the members announced a spectacular start to the tour with a total of four performances, twice a day for two days.
On this day, Ive opened the performance with 'REBEL HEART' and 'I AM'. The members took the stage in uniform and showed off their brilliant visuals of six people and six colors, and quickly dominated the atmosphere by showing stable live and performance.
After finishing the stage, Ive greeted Dive (official fan club name) in Japanese after a long time. They had a time to get closer to their fans by talking about their recent updates and TMI, and later performed their Japanese debut song 'ELEVEN - Japanese version (ELEVEN - Japanese version.-)' and impressed them deeply.
A special unit stage, which can only be seen at fan concerts, was also held. Ahn Yu-jin, Autumn, and Ray drew enthusiastic cheers by performing the Japanese version of Orange Caramel's 'Magic Girl', while Jang Won-young, Liz, and Lee Seo performed the 'Levitating' by Dua Lipa. In particular, the cute appearance of the members struggling to win magic sticks on the stage of 'Magic Girl' drew laughter, and the sophisticated visuals of the members dressed in suits on the stage of 'Levitating' evoked fans' admiration. On top of that, the performance of the new song 'TKO' was released for the first time in Japan, and the enthusiasm of the site reached its peak.
As it is a fan concert, there is also a corner called 'DIVE MISSION: Move it, Do it!' to carry out various missions sent by Japanese dives. The members celebrated the moment by carrying out a variety of missions, including challenges that were popular locally and challenges that drew attention in the past, and taking pictures together with a bouquet of 'minib' after carrying out all the missions.
Afterwards, Ive performed the title song of Japan's second album 'CRUSH' in the first and third performances, and the title song 'WAVE' in the second and fourth performances of Japan's first album. As both songs were original Japanese songs that hit the local charts, fans completed the stage together by shouting out loud cheers.
In addition, Ive completely fascinated local fans with mega-hit songs relays such as 'Kitsch', 'LOVE DIVE' and 'After LIKE' and marked the end of the performance with the title song 'ATTITUDE'.
When Ive left after the stage, fans flooded the scene with requests for an encore. As if to respond to this, the members made a surprise appearance singing the new song 'THANKU', distributing sign balls and expressing their sincere gratitude. Ive then performed the song "NOT YOUR GIRL" with an encore song, and until the end, he made eye contact with each of the fans and sang enthusiastically to convey the deep aftertaste.
Ray, who finished the Nagoya concert, was so happy and thrilled to hold a fan concert in his hometown of Nagoya through his agency Starship Entertainment. It's a moment I've dreamed of for a long time, so I think it'll remain an unforgettable memory for a lifetime. Thank you to everyone who shared their precious memories." "I'm always doing my best, but through this performance, I'm determined to work harder once again. We will also do our best to perform in Fukuoka, Kobe, and Yokohama in the future. Dive, I love you so much!," he added.
Abe will continue his Japanese fan-con tour 'IVE SCOUT'IN JAPAN' in Fukuoka from the 21st to the 22nd, Kobe World Memorial Hall from the 25th to the 26th, and K-Arena Yokohama from the 29th to the 30th.
