Ive rose to greater prominence with their 2022 single "Love Dive", which charted at number one on the Circle Digital Chart, became the best-performing single of the year, and won Song of the Year at the Asia Artist Awards, Golden Disc Awards, MAMA Awards, and Melon Music Awards. The group's name, IVE, is a contraction for "I have". It alludes to the idea of showing what "I have" to the audience with confidence, where instead of telling the story of growth, the group tries to portray a "complete girl group" from the start.

두 발끝을 뗀 순간
내게로 집중되는 vibe (woah, woah, yeah)
익숙한 시선 I want it
숨길 필요 없잖아
느껴져 in your eyes, eyes, eyes
세상에 보란 듯 모든 걸 보여 주고파 난
누구보다 환하게 빛나는 그런 나인걸
'Cause you know, I'm a royal, royal
Diamonds and gold
Do it like a royal, royal 그게 나라고
거침없이 난 또 네게 걸어가
내 걸음걸이마저도 당당한 그게 나니까
'Cause you know, I'm a royal, royal
Diamonds and gold
손짓 하나와 표정까지
Let you know, you know, you know, you know, you know
날 보여줄래
난 걸음걸이부터 눈빛까지 so royal
다들 물어봐 how can I be like u, hold up
망설이지 말고 보여줘 be loyal to yourself
가장 너다운 걸 보여줄 때 that's royal
솔직한 게 (I) 좋(like) 아(it)
아무렴 뭐 어때
숨을 필요 없어 시선에
지금부터 let 'em know your name
나다운 게(I) 좋(love) 아(it)
지금 이 순간
오직 너에게만 집중해
네게 중요한 건 언제나 be yourself
흔들림 따위는 없는 내 머리부터 발끝까지
세상에 보란 듯 모든 걸 보여 주고파 난
누구보다 환하게 빛나는 그런 나인걸
'Cause you know, I'm a royal, royal
Diamonds and gold
Do it like a royal, royal 그게 나라고
거침없이 난 또 네게 걸어가

'Cause you know, I'm a royal, royal
Diamonds and gold
손짓 하나와 표정까지
Let you know, you know, you know, you know, you know
날 보여줄래
언제나 가장 빛나길 원해
저 별처럼 눈부신 나
어떤 순간에도 자신있게 나아가 난
Ooh, no one can stop me now, ooh
'Cause you know, I'm a royal, royal
Diamonds and gold
