IVE Wins First Triple Crown in 2025... Album, Digital Music, and Global K-Pop Artist Awards at Golden Disk

IVE has won the first three awards of 2025. At the JTBC's 39th Golden Disk Awards, held at the PayPay Dome in Fukuoka, Japan, on April 4 and 5, IVE won Best Album for his second EP album "IVE SWITCH" and Best Digital Song for his title track "HEYA," and then took home the Global K-Pop Artist Award, earning him three awards.

Along with the award, IVE performed a rock version of their main prize-winning song "HEYA" to showcase a never-before-seen dance break, and overwhelmed the stage with a performance that utilized each member's individuality. They also performed their U.S. single "All Night," which caused a challenge craze on last year's "Golden Disk" with the featured artists, for the first time on air, and became one with the audience, creating a concert-like experience.

Since his debut, IVE has been on a steady rise, winning the Golden Disk trophy for three consecutive years. His career continues to grow, with his fourth million-selling album, "IVE Switch," released in April last year.

In addition, Ive was honored as one of the "30 Under 30 Most Influential People in Asia" by Forbes, an American business magazine. His first world tour, "SHOW WHAT I HAVE," took him to 28 cities in 19 countries across Asia, the Americas, and Europe for a total of 37 performances, which were sold out and made the encounter with his fans even more special.

"We are grateful to Dive for allowing us to start the new year with the award," said IVE leader An Yu-jin. "We are very happy to have won the Global K-Pop Artist Award with the momentum we gained from our first world tour and close communication with fans in more countries. We would like to thank everyone including Dive and look forward to the upcoming release of 'IVE Empathy. I wish you a happy new year 2025 and always keep your eyes on the prize!"

After releasing the preview title track "REBEL HEART" on the 13th, IVE will release his third EP album "IVE Empathy" on February 3rd.
