Monster rookie girl group IVE continue to set records left and right since their debut last December of 2021 with 'Eleven'.

According to Gaon's Monthly Album Chart's update on May 12 KST, IVE took the #1 spot as their 2nd single album 'Love Dive' recorded a great number of sales on the first month of release, accumulating over 544,000 copies sold.

This makes IVE the very first girl group to land at the top of the chart since Girls' Generation 'Lion Heart' in August of 2015. It took nearly 7 years for another girl group to achieve the milestone. In addition, IVE have become the third ever girl group to have an album debuting straight at #1 on Gaon's Monthly Album Chart, joining Girls' Generation and 2ne1.

Congratulations to IVE!

IVE are already proving that they belong among the top girl groups. If they don't win rookie of the year I'm suing.
