With raves and reviews of course.

The Tales of Two MVs

Two distinctly summery releases coming off groups that both struggle with the number 9 that both fall on the more experimental side of their group’s discography. Both have lyrics penned by their members - which coincidentally can be read as an answer to the other. Both have their good moment with lots of production quirks - but none too spectacular and stays middling on the overall impact but great on the aesthetic side - I mean just look at this:

Not to forget the iconic carrot dye job by the two resident dance machines/visual extraordinaires

Also happy belated birthday to Sojin the actual baby of the group 👸

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past

What’s Good? I’m Good.

Face-Heel Turn

Killing that concept of lulling listeners to a false sense of predictable mellowness to then kick up a sick beat at the post-chorus 🎢

Cosmic Pastel Neon

Too bad the Girl Front MV turns out to be a cross between Dumb Dumb and Hola Hola because a cosmic pastel neon aesthetic trilogy would be 🔥

Time to wake up from my 6-month slumber

[k-popified]

The great Baekhyun solo song we’ve been waiting for

Don’t worry Jongdae, you’ll get them next time! ＼(￣▽￣)／

This is the new Lisa just passing by meme tbh

That feel when

A group whose songs have always been bops™ releases a new song and you're not feeling it, then realize oh a certain someone is missing from the lineup

[k-popified]

And I still don't know how this tactic of promoting the song before releasing the MV is supposed to work to boost their public exposure

[k-popified]

Really appreciate the fact that the girls are changing up this time *side eyeing the U&D-Ah Yeah-Hot Pink hattrick* and Junghwa improves so much?? But not feeling this song yet, and not just because Solji isn't there 😐

[k-popified]

Getting way too much Error vibe from the instrumental. A decent debut nonetheless

[k-popified]

Definitely will pay big bucks for a mashup of these two songs

All day long music never stops  🎶
