Same chorus, different favorites: IVE’s vocal challenge invites comparisons

Liking the same song does not mean choosing the same singer’s version. These shared challenge posts make that difference in taste part of the attraction.

A Korean compilation on October 23 brought together 'Looks Can Kill' vocal clips by WOODZ, HANRORO, George and Yoo Hwe-seung. WOODZ posted through his own X account, while George's appearance was shared by IVE's official X. IVE had already previewed the Hero Academy-themed choreography on October 12 and released the song on the 19th.

The original choreography features a playful finger-gun move. The vocal versions instead reveal how timbre and phrasing can change the same refrain. The compiler's preferences are personal reactions, not voting results or a popularity ranking.

The roundup’s author described WOODZ’s contribution as a rock version and singled it out alongside HANRORO’s as personal favorites. That is one observed preference, not a ranking of participants or a verdict from the whole fandom.

IVE had previously introduced a dance challenge for the song. Following choreography and focusing on a singer’s voice offer different ways into the same track. This discussion centers on the latter.

The official sequence is the October 12 choreography preview, the October 19 'Looks Can Kill' single release and the scheduled October 26 mini-album release. The October 23 compilation featured four singers but is not a comprehensive participant roster.

As of October 23 the single is out, while the full mini-album is still scheduled for October 26. Later covers and performances should be checked when released; these four clips are not a complete archive.
