VERIVERY’S FROM NOW KPOP REVIEW
MV ---->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fioEMfxpUO0
Hello! This is my kpop review for Verivery’s last comeback “From now” including a bonus of their side-track performance of “Light up”. Enjoy! ^^
1.- The group
Verivery debuted january 2019 under jellyfish entertainment (VIXX, GUGUDAN) and is composed of 7 boys (all korean). Their concept so far has been cute/playful/sophisticated and they’ve made a comeback with the album Veri-Able along with their title track “From now” (TTak Jallaseo Malhe - I’ll say it directly)
On this MV the members had these looks (in order of age):
DongHeon: Leader, Main Rapper / Blonde hair
HoYoung: Lead Rapper / Bowl cut, Brownish-Dark hair, Dimples
MinChan: Main Visual, Lead Singer / Orangey-Light Brown hair
GyeHyeon: Lead Vocal / Blue hair
Yeonho: Main Vocal, Visual / Burgundy-DarkRed hair
YongSeung: Main Dacer, Vocal / Coma hairstyle, Black-DarkBrown hair, Very light skin, round eyes
KangMin: Maknae, Lead Vocal / Two-part hairstyle, Gummy smile, Brown hair
2.- Music Video
The mv was your standard kpop mv tbh, a pastel palette fit for a not necessarily cute concept but a youthful one nonetheless along with individual shots to highlight the members’s visuals and scenography along with a convenient switch and camera movement to highlight some parts of the choreo. Not bad by any means but it contained no narrative other than the boys having fun and being handsome which at least in my perspective is more than enough. The lyrics tell the story of a boy who has been crushing on someone for a long time and tells their s/o their feelings directly hoping to get an answer that will ease their heart.
The song itself is quite catchy with a mix of pop and subtle r&b. It mostly makes use of the groups’s vocals rather than musicality along with a strong beat that keeps on the background to keep you bopping until the end of the song. Not the strongest rap but a decent one nonetheless, a final breakdown that is just a explosion of adlibs to showcase the vocals and the chorus of the group’s voices on the back. A good release with a high quality production, but not one that will make an incredible chart outbreak under today’s standards of kpop for rookies.
3.- Choreography / Performance
Jellyfish as an agency is one know for giving very sustained quality, this choreo is not the catchiest but cool and a bit more laidback than the group’s debut. It makes use of a small breakdown at the beggining to showcase their dancing skills and later takes advantage of the number to make good formations and chain movements. At one point of the song they send one member (HoYoung) Flying which is quite fun and makes for an impact along with the music. It is noted though that they use a bit more of freestyle and just standing at times to make for a stable vocal performance and visuals highlight that can get a tiny bit akward but not long enough to get to a cringey stage.
MR removed videos so far show an improvement on their vocal abilities, however the song itself seems to be a bit too high for GyeHyeon who has a softer voice, only on some performances tho, which may be aswell from exhaustion.
4.- Additional thoughts
Personally i liked the song, the choreo seems easier than previous comebacks and the fun vibes and catchy beat makes it worth a 2nd listen. However I’m concerned with the group’s future, as much as i see their potential i can’t deny that jellyfish has trouble creating a hit as marketing strategy independently of the highquality music they produce and with how strong is rookie competition these days i fear they will go underrated and not get to showcase their complete talent so please check them out if you can!
5.- Side track performance - Light up

This one took me by surprise, a much more mature(?) concept seemed to surface with this sidetrack. The choreo is sharper, a catchy breakdown with a classic love theme adlib and them bodyrolls!!! deffinetly got to show of a new side of the members along with a bit more vocal range for gyehyeon which made me glad. Worth seeing!
(A/N: I have listened to the album but this post is already long as it is, would you like to see an album review in the future? if so let me know ^^! Always open for suggestions)
