According to its agency Starship Entertainment, IVE recently surpassed 10.18 million followers and received 480 million cumulative likes on the global short-form video platform 'TikTok'. As a result, Ive proved its influence not only in music activities but also in various fields and solidified its position as a global trend.
Through TikTok, Ive continued to actively communicate with fans around the world by consistently posting various challenge videos and behind-the-scenes as well as content related to new songs. In particular, Jang Won-young's 'If We Ever Broke Up' surpassed 58 million views on TikTok, and Ray's 'REAL or FAKE challenge proved its power by surpassing 27 million views and 70,000 comments.
IVE's use of TikTok shone in the release of the new song. They released the new song in the form of a challenge, reducing the cover video of global fans, both at home and abroad, with easy-to-follow choreography and addictive sound sources. As a result, the song "LOVE DIVE" in 2022 and "I AM" in 2023 ranked fourth in 2024, following the song "HEYA" (Sped Up) Ver.1" in the same year. "REBEL HEART" and "ATTITUDE'", the double title songs of IVE's third mini album released in February, ranked fourth in the TikTok music chart "Viral 50" chart, respectively."

The 'Riot Guineas' Challenge, which heated up various SNS in the first half of 2025, is also indispensable. Ive used the so-called 「Riot Guinea」 part, in which Ray and the members perform time-difference choreography, as a challenge in the chorus section of the verse 2 of the"attitude", and various artists, as well as popular characters Belly Bear, Jean-Manc Rupee, and Tiniping, joined the challenge, hitting the challenge market and expanding their influence across all generations.
Ive has topped 10 million TikTok followers, winning the gold button. In commemoration of this, he released a witty commemorative video titled 「When I opened the door and Ive received the TikTok gold button」, showing extreme reactions to the new song 「XOXZ」 released on the 25th, revealing his brilliant creativity on the gold button.
As such, IVE is leading the trend of K-pop through TikTok, forming a united field with music, as well as the unique charm of the members and the colorful colors of the team. With IVE releasing its fourth mini-album 'IV SECRET' on the 25th, expectations are high on what other various contents they will capture the hearts of fans around the world.
Meanwhile, Ive is expected to perform variously through the title song of the new song 'Ive Secret'XZ'.
