I saw someone described this comeback's concept as IVEPHORIA and it's so accurate tbh. The mix of high teen and high glam. Girls in uniforms but also decked out in designer clothes (they were all in Miu Miu) and diamonds and pearls. Early 2000s mean girls vibe but you can't help but envy them. You're so right about how well they pull off the sassy but cool vibe. Whoever came up with this truly has their hand on the pulse of what young people are into nowadays.

Starship knew they were debuting a group during the Izone years so they had a lot of time to prepare not only a debut, but a comeback, while they were waiting for the Izone contract period to end. They could take their time with the production side and even prepare the four members not in Izone ahead of time. They probably had “Love Dive“ in mind as their follow up before they announced “Dive“ as the fandom name.

That they gave the narcissistic parts to wonyoung and leeseo, is just perfect.

"Narcissistic, my god I love it" is so good cuz the god Narcissus was so in love with himself, that he DOVE into a pool of water because of his reflection in it and essentially killed himself because of that love.

Love how they played with the meaning of the title - obviously love for DIVEs, but it also fits the theme of diving deep into love without hesitation. “Narcissistic, my god I love it” plays at the idea that this love is a selfish decision, one that is your choice and only your choice alone unhindered by others thoughts and opinions. Like giving in to your love. The “woo” in the chorus sells the idea even more. It has so much reverb, like you’re drowning in the sound - and being consumed by your feeling of love. edit: and the break before the second chorus! it's like the breath you take before diving into the water. They executed this song so well!!

This song is insane. It's been a while since I've loved a song within the first few seconds of hearing it. The "woo" part is so airy, dreamy and almost nostalgic. It reminds me a bit of Lana del Rey her song Young and Beautiful and the feeling it evokes.

Rei was STUNNING this comeback her voice is so sharp and satisfying :D

Finally someone who's recognizing the way LOVEDIVE was edited! Also, I totally agree with how overwhelmingly GOOD the song is that it makes you forget what the video is all about. I couldn't remember also what I just watched LMAO.. Anyways, 'hausofteam' handled the production of IVE's LOVEDIVE and they have worked on several THE BOYZ title tracks too! They are really ahead of their game in terms of cinematography and the video editing itself. I also really like how they are able to pull off those switches for the 'Narcissistic' and for the sudden drop which the heart arrow exploded. They were so critical and clever with their effects that it just brought the music more into life. LOVEDIVE is like a nice good ending for ELEVEN, they surprisingly match with each other.

One of my absolute favourite releases this year so far, besides that short break in the 2nd chorus and not doing the chorus again at the end, this song HIT ME LIKE A DAMN BRICK JESUS CHRIST. Absolutely addicting and hypnotizing, these girls' futures are brighter than the damn sun its crazy.

I don’t think I’ve ever been this early!!! This comeback has me in a chokehold currently it’s so good!!🤩

"Woo" part is so addictive + the whisper part in the break dance 5:17 was also really hypnotizing, like they're spelling a magic spells on me. I thought they didnt include that part, but it finally appeared in the dance break part. I already love it when the teaser comes out

just curious how they made bass sounds so rich and smooth

MASTERPIECE! I cannot believe my eyes and ears, I was so scared after the success of ELEVEN, but they literally did it again. 😩 I think it was such a smart move to no go with a similar sound but do something completely different because it allowed them to evade the possible comparisons. The songs are incomparable quality wise. This tune yet again feels so fresh and unexpected for kpop, that chorus is just amazing. Where do they FIND these songs? I swear! When you said IVE’s videos are elegant, I gasped cause that’s literally the word! Even this video and concept which are more playful than ELEVEN’s still feel so mature, elevated, elegant and sophisticated. I am beyond impressed with the team Starship assigned them, their taste level is superior. IVE as a project is just different, the team, the girls themselves are so ripe, I don’t even feel like I am looking at a group that just debuted a few months ago. I see why they debuted Leeseo too, she is a MONSTER of an act, to be her age and be this convincing and have this major capability to pull the viewer in and convince them of what she’s doing/saying is incredible. Ya’ll, this girl group is without fault when it comes to the girls, this is one of the strongest lineups I have ever seen in kpop, new or old groups. Nobody over-shines nobody and they have TWO IZ’ONE members... This song is just BEYOND, it’s so eerie yet seductive, so mischievous and playful yet innocent and serious, I... no words. I don’t want to even say it but I feel like I like it even more than ELEVEN which is crazy to even speak into existence because that song was the definition of a perfect smash hit. The songs are so different and incomparable yet equally good. I am just impressed by how this song still feels fresh and unlike other kpop tunes from the past year yet still retro like the current wave but not retro at all... I am just speechless. It’s gonna do SO well, it already is... I pray the girls are happy. 🖤

Constantly refreshing KZread for that After Like reaction 👀

The anti drop “Narcissistic, my god I love it” main melody line has this reminiscence of Kylie Minogue “Can’t Get You Outta My Head” and I love it so freaking much. Hypnotic bassline with Wonyoung/LeeSeo’s nasal sassy vocals is such a dangerous combination

this is one of my favorite kpop songs of all time. the way it portrays such a siren song, greek goddess, love obsessed type of vibe is just *chefs kiss* it's like jennifers body meets the ancient world.

Something about the synths and the structure reminds me of early 2010’s euro electro pop and I’m so so here for it. This absolutely tops Eleven for me. I could recognize eleven was a great song, but it just wasn’t for me. This? This is absolutely for me. Slaps astronomically. I’m so here for the Narcissus concept as well. It didn’t click immediately but using a title like “Love Dive” is brilliant. The Greek mythology reference is amazing. Narcissus literally died because he drowned looking in his own reflection. I don’t know if this was the intention but I love the parallels.

This is, indeed, one of the best comebacks ever The mixing/editing? *INSANE* Visuals? Outstanding Vocals? Heavenly

they’re by far my fav debut group it’s rlly fun to see how catchy n refreshing their music is n the concepts are so aesthetically pleasing to look at too

I never say this but if this is not SOTY I don't know what. It's an incredible song!

Same! I really don’t think any other song could top love dive for me.

I'm a little worried about PD...but what i am seriously concerned is about all the people in comments being like "hey you haven't uploaded, react to this and that". We seem to forget that he's not just a content creator, he's a person, he's a human. And seeing how it's been a while since he uploaded, people should be more concerned about him as a person, about his health, about him being okay, than about if he's going to react or not to whatever. Guys, let the man breathe. I hope you are okay PD. I can't say i don't want to see some reactions of you too, but i prefer not seeing a video again and knowing you'll be fine, than to see a video everyday and knowing you're not feeling well. Hopefully everything is well and you're just taking a rest. If not, you just focus on you and your health PD, that's all that matters.

I know I'm late to this but I just wanted to remind you that pd uses they/them pronouns!

This song blew it out of the water for me. Idk what I expected but this exceeded it. 10/10 for me. Maybe my favourite release of 2022 so far.

I just came back to rewatch PD's reaction to Love Dive. Since it won 2 Daesangs already (MMA and MAMA) this reaction of PD to LoveDive stand out a lot to me and proves it is a Song of the Year. 👍👏 Thank u PD. 🙏

Fr almost 100% of music reviewers nd also some of critics of other BIG 3 labels said this song was unique & may have potential to win SOTY

I reaally like this comeback! Definitely something I’ll be listening on repeat! the ”woo” part is so addicting and alluring, almost ”siren” like, it’s hard to even explain

This pre chorus is so freaking good

what's more exciting about this whole concept is even the album is kind of inspired by the mv. the album has a middle part and the other half is upside down. idk how long starship planned this but they seem to have thought about this comeback carefully which is crazy to think given the four months. i literally have no words about everything.

i love that their concept so far, musically speaking, seems to be really big, vast, expansive songs lol. i love it. eleven sounds like it was echoing around the walls of a cave, and i get a little of that from this song too. it's so interesting and well produced

I think this concept is a lot more elegant than Eleven, and it suits them very well! the whole concept reminds me a lot of Genie by SNSD (another great release)

DJ put it back on!

Yep. That vocal harmony coming through a tunnel in the prechorus and the hook was just amazing. I was surprised that the song was only a little over 2 minutes and a half. It felt longer to me, and by that I mean it felt like a whole song in that time, not cut off or ending abruptly. I loved how the other members are stepping up here and showing off all their colors, especially Rei's vocal in the first verse. I'm not disappointed in the least.

This song is BRAINWASHING is mysterious and addicting. The WOO I the post and pré chores is AMAZING. Eleven wasn't it for me, but I can totally say this is going to be my top 5 songs of the year like Fever- Enhypen was last year. It had the same effect. I also did not pay attention to the mv after yujin's first verse. THIS SONG IS A MASTERPIECE.

9999999/10 the song the concept of the video the design of their background and interior. Applause for the person who ever thought about the concept really, love it

The first thing that came to mind when I hear the song was “EXCELLENCY” and I stand by that! This song was SO good I immediately put it into the top 3 of the year. Now that I looked back at all the songs of 2022, I can’t say where I can place it but the fact that I alone would place it as high as Seventeen (which is also my ult group) who this year made their absolute best, world class song rock with you, and it’s a very big established group shows how amazing this song and mv is….. also, I decided to finally stan 🙃

when eleven came out everyone, including myself, thought that it would be almost impossible to top it off with their next comeback. IVE just keeps getting better, and don't even get me started on the quality of their bsides. Royal and Take it are very much title track worthy songs in my opinion and it just shows how high quality their music is. Yujin's always been my bias since iz*one days, but wonyoung really got me with how she used her voice in this song. The dancebreak doesn't even need to be explained, the girls killed it and i died multiple times watching this mv for the first time.

They're playing at a big kpop festival in germany next month, so I'm glad they had another comeback or else they'd only have 2 songs to perform 😳

This is this kind of comebacks that a 5-year+ old idol groups would have. It's hard to believe that they just debuted months ago.

Trust me listening it with earphones, headphones or airpods, IT SOUND WAY MORE IVETHETIC x2 TIMES then without it!

Yeah Rei really stands out this song imo

I love how it's a different concept but still feels like a continuation of Eleven, like a natural progression while keeping their identity as a group ✨👏👏

I think this song was what I needed to officially become a fan. I fairly new to kpop so I knew nothing about Iz*one, so the whole group was new to me. I loved eleven but I wanted to wait to see of their comeback would reel me in, and it 100% did. The video itself is so pretty and I love the song itself. It's so catchy and beautiful sounding. I'm excited for the upcoming stages.

The song is so freaking good!! Easily one of the best in a long time imo

We miss you pd

I think the reason of them switching up the line distributions is that they're aware about how certain members have established popularity already so they really want to give every member a highlighted spot and make everyone's capabilities shine through I really respect starship for that omgg they really learned from kpop's past mistakes

Rei is probably my favorite this comeback, her vocals cut through the mix so nicely and her timbre is unique but soothing

The theory of the song is that it is about Narcissus from Greek mythology, where it is said that he was very vain and they curse him by ordering him to love his reflection and since he loved himself so much he saw his reflection in the river and sank. The title is LOVE DIVE but the fans realized that because of the color of the letters on the album it is actually LOVED IVE, referring to the fact that they love each other and the mv refers to the scenes with water and the transitions making effect of reflection. also the lyrics make several references such as "this is a perfect sacrifice" and the dance where two point and imitate each other as a reflection and sing "You into me, me into you ", also the chorus of "Narcissistic my god I love it " so everything indicates that the mv and the album are inspired by He

It was confirmed that this song was inspired my that Greek theory.

'After like' IVE let's go !

I HATE how no one is talking about Reis talking part!?!?!? I swear i melt every time she says "you into me, me into you"

Everything is perfect.. song itself, MV, concept, and outfits of the girls!

I think PD is taking a break bc of a family stuff hope y'all understand that!!!

for me, they can add the pre-chorus after the last chorus to fade out or overlayed for a chorus repeat so it can be more longer, but yeah the sound is pretty ive, they established a sound now.

I'm not a fan of them but I have to say this song is so good. From the beginning ,it catch your attention. And the vocals are so smooth and nice. The chorus of the song is so nice and unique too

Finally ㅠㅠㅜㅜㅠ I really agree that pre chorus is insane..!

I expected pd to react to this the same way as drunk dazed and i was right lmao. Truely one of the best 1st comeback songs ever

exactly how I reacteddd, I had such high expectations and they did not disappoint!! the song was so good on the first listen and I was so hooked on the pre-chorus to the chorus that I had to replay it straight away bc I was not focused on what what I was watching. the song is so dreamy and so Ive and it left me wanting more aaa the outfits too omg so cute. from the colours they used, the concept, the sound, everything was literally perfect. in this mv both Rei and Wonyoung stood out to me the most and Gaeul with her gorgeous short hair and I literally already can’t wait for their next comeback already😂😂

Haha this reaction reminds me of your 'Psycho' reaction. The song is so good that you forgot about the MV. 'Love Dive' is a BOP.

I'm absolutely obsessed with love dive, I haven't heard that kind of sound in kpop at all the song is diving in my head right now. I can't wait for your live stage reaction, the b-side is really great too!!

Im in love with this comeback. Their fulfilled my expectations. I really loved background vocals in Eleven and now they did it again with the “woooo” part. This part giving me such a pleasant feel. The MV is also really good. I also recommend you to check out side track, its banger too. For me 11/10 comeback, without a doubt.

An attention garnering intro, with yujin's sultry and pre cautious tone, followed by rei's voice which radiates "i approve you but I'll keep my guard up" then the ever melodious and ear gasming pre chorus with the background vocals which are so touching, wonyoung's heart melting voice which brings off a "experiencing this heart flutter for the first time" kinda vibe, then gaeul's killing part towards the verge of the antidrop chorus rich with cool aesthetic and then the drop.. gosh this song is so artistic, it gives me the feeling you'll get driving on a summer, breezy nostalgic day just before the sun sets. The close zooms of their faces feels like they're falling in love for the first time and the curiosity, longing, thrill is abundant, like time stops for a few moments. This song gives me such an immaculate vibe and i can assure it's one of my top 10 now.

PD I don't know if you will see this, but are you okay? I'm not asking because I'm expecting a reaction video, or for you to respond. I just hope that you are feeling well.
