Kpop group KINGDOM, HISTORY OF KINGDOM PART III. IVAN

The Kpop group KINGDOM returns with a more intense appearance. KINGDOM will release the 3rd mini-album, ‘History Of Kingdom: Part III IVAN’ at 6 pm on the 21st and start full-fledged comeback activities. Since KINGDOM has expanded its own worldview, fans are paying special attention to their comeback.

The album includes seven songs, including the title track, ‘Black Crown,’ ‘Legacy of Hatred,’ ‘Fallen Star,’ ‘We Are,’ ‘Burn,’ and ‘ON AIR.’

This time, they will present music with a narrative unique to KINGDOM and based on a huge view of the world.

We looked at why KINGDOM’s comeback will surely color the second half of 2021.

● Huge worldview

KINGDOM consists of Dann, Arthur, Mujin, Louis, Ivan, Jahan, and Chiwoo. As you can see from the group name, each of the members with the king’s name is the protagonist of their worldview. Interest is growing in the fantasy of the KINGDOM that will unfold centered on King Ivan. He is the third main character of ‘The Snow Kingdom.’

The central worldview of KINGDOM is the story of a king who wants to awaken as a true king and six kings who come from different timelines to help him. New kingdoms continue to be set, including the previous Kingdom of Rain and Kingdom of Clouds. In the future, they will unveil the Kingdom of Change, Kingdom of Cherry Blossoms, Kingdom of Beauty, and Kingdom of the Sun.

As such, the album that will contain the stories of kings (members) of each country is ‘History of Kingdom.’

This is also the reason why KINGDOM’s journey is described as ‘a great history based on a huge worldview.’

It is considerable that the group’s unique worldview is well incorporated in the magnificent music video. Rumor has it that fans worldwide are cheering for the worldview and meticulous planning power that connects each music video through cookie videos in the second half.

Mainly, Kpop group KINGDOM justifies the worldview’s narrative with its special charm, various objects, and messages in the lyrics. Through this, the scale of global fandom is rapidly expanding by lowering entry barriers to areas that may seem difficult.

● Extra-large Performance

KINGDOM has shown overwhelming performances reminiscent of year-end awards ceremonies with numerous dancers on each music show performance. In their debut song, ‘EXCALIBUR,’ they performed a movie-like sword dance. Then, in the last title song, ‘KARMA,’ they presented a picturesque performance with a fan as a point.

KINGDOM impresses global Kpop fans and entertainment officials through performances that were not like a rookie. At the 2021 Hallyu Culture Awards, they won the ‘Next Generation Hallyu Star Award,’ which is like a rookie award. Also, at the ‘8th E-Daily Culture Awards,’ they were the only rookie to perform on the celebration stage. In addition, it is a tip that they are receiving offers at various year-end awards ceremonies and large-scale concerts.

The title song ‘Black Crown’ of the third mini-album also heralded a stronger performance. So, it is raising the expectations of ‘King Maker’ (fandom) around the world.

● 4th Generation Idol ‘Dark Horse’

Kpop group KINGDOM’s second mini-album topped the iTunes album chart in the US and Mexico upon its release. Also, it showed achievements in entering iTunes album charts in 12 countries and Apple music charts in 25 countries. In addition, it showed its potential to take first place on TikTok’s Korean trend chart.

The album’s title song, KARMA, also ranked 8th in the Billboard ‘World Digital Song Sales’ chart. Particularly, entering the Billboard chart was surprising. In fact, they are the only male group to enter the chart among the groups that debuted this year.

In addition, Forbes, a US economic magazine, cited KINGDOM as a group that moves the world song chart along with BTS and BLACKPINK, proving its growing popularity in the US. As such, KINGDOM gained popularity first in North America, unusual as a debut idol group. Then, they rapidly emerged as a fourth-generation idol ‘dark horse.’

Based on its vast worldview, KINGDOM is emerging as a new Kpop powerhouse with a fantasy movie-like music video and mega-performance. They will release its third mini-album, ‘History of Kingdom: Part III IVAN,’ at 6 pm on October 21 and make a full-fledged comeback with the title song ‘Black Crown.’
