Rated 4 out of 5
Olivia (verified owner) – Los Angeles, USA – April 1, 2026
The album has catchy tracks, but the photobook pages are thinner than I hoped. Shipping was a bit slow, too. If you’re a fan of IVE’s music, it might be worth grabbing one version.

AC Chilling (verified owner) – December 11, 2025
IVE has done it again! This album is dreamy and the songs are so unique, they really grow on you. I especially loved ‘XOXZ’ – it’s so catchy and will definitely be stuck in my head for a while.
