Dive right into the world of NCHIVE ahead of the release of “BELIEVE“.
The Kpop group NCHIVE, under AUBEMOON STUDIO, has just released the Highlight Medley for its highly anticipated second single album “BELIEVE“. The video, uploaded to YouTube, immerses fans in a vibrant digital world where the group’s mascot, NMA (앤마), a USB drive capable of storing all memories and archives, guides viewers on a journey through a computer’s inner universe.
On screen, NMA walks through the streets of a digital city, following a computer mouse cursor that points to which files to open. Each folder reveals teaser photos of the six members, HA_L, E_aN, KANGSAN, YUCHAN, JUYOUNG, and N, accompanied by snippets of the project’s three tracks:
-
“Can’t catch me” (title track)
-
“Flash”
-
“Luv + me”
The sequence ends in an urban atmosphere as NMA finds herself in a skatepark before being literally sucked into a computer screen, a visual metaphor for full immersion into the group’s musical and conceptual world.
The title track “Can’t catch me” was composed by Vendors (Abim), Vendors (Fascinador), and Christoffer Jonsson, arranged by Vendors (Abim), with lyrics by Christoffer Jonsson, 이경 (Waveclouds), Vendors (CHILLER), Vendors (Owl), 도연 (Wavecloud), and member KANGSAN himself. Fans familiar with Vendors’ work will recognize their signature sound — the team previously collaborated on powerful songs like “Trigger” by JUST B and “Freakin’ bad” by XIKERS.
The second track, “Flash”, shines thanks to the participation of the 20Hz collective (박슬기, 조형서, 김동엽) and producer Roydo, known for their work on “Love me like this” by NMIXX and “Whiplash” by THE BOYZ. Its electro-pop sound and dynamic rhythm hint at a track full of energy and light.
Finally, “Luv + me”, also produced by the 20Hz team (박슬기, 김수민, 이은철, 강준석), offers a softer and more emotional atmosphere. Lyrics written by Leafia (20Hz) promise a touch of tenderness that contrasts with the intensity of the title track.
As the official release of “BELIEVE” approaches, NCHIVE is also preparing to meet their fans through a European tour kicking off next month. The announced dates include concerts in Cologne (9), Brussels (13), Paris (16), and Montpellier (22), confirming the group’s growing international presence. Preorders for exclusive merchandise are already available.
The single album “BELIEVE” promises to showcase a new side of NCHIVE, blending intensity, modernity, and emotion. Fans can already watch the Highlight Medley on YouTube and get ready to dive into the group’s full universe upon the album’s release. To celebrate, the group also announced a live “Listening party” on October 31 at 8 PM KST on its YouTube channel: HERE
