I love it.

There was more spotlight/focus on Lia than I expected, and she owned it.

I need an Itzy girlfriend. It makes no sense but that's my new criteria. Needs to be at least 75% Itzy. Anything less I'm out.

Need to hear the rest of the album later.

The part where Ryujin goes into the "for a girl group" remarks, is what I think people being bad at phrasing things. Kinda like when someone is being bothered about "when you are getting a girlfriend or boyfriend?" It means well in the sense others are excited for them, but inadvertently can make that person feel like shit. Itzy does deserve recognition for not trying to fit a mold. It has taken girl groups longer to do that. It's beyond me how they're subjected to certain choreography in high heels.

Yuna without make up is night and day in depicting her age. If no one told me, I would've guessed she was 19 through very early 20's on stage.

As with any, I guess, child-bred professional, these people are fed so much information and principle to be brought up to speed and ahead. I do remark how professional they sound, but on the flipside, makes you wonder how much free-thought they were able to exercise, like if they were able to question what they were doing for a second vs. always being fixated on what would get them to succeed.

Case-in-point imo, Justin Beiber. Dude was like Usher and I guess Def Jam's puppet. In American culture that kid had so much shit thrown at him. Even the support he got probably misled him and I think he had mistrust come about in his family. Literal success was probably making life worse to a degree, and it just put him more in everyone's firing range. it's a lot of noise.

That's not to take scrutiny in Asia lightly, but I feel like American society would be more boundless in trying to tear apart a K-Pop artist. Haters here don't say things out of principal, or just by insecurity, but because they literally thrive on being the worst.

What seemed to be the least featured outfits in the M/V. Borderline early NCT weird for me, but if you isolated Chae/Yuna/Ryujin, they look just fancy imo.

I assume they only mashed two major cuts, but Ryujin's leg thing is too obvious lol.

Seems like the choreography was designed to be multi-directional vs. facing forward. The last singles were like that, and really good at that, but great they changed it up because now the panning camera serves as a more primary perspective.

Yeah they do seem wise beyond their years. And about your comment on their choreo, makes me feel badder about Lia getting complaints on her dancing being "lazy" just because she's the main vocal focus in the group and not as experienced in dance as the other girls. I could see what you mean about the whole "for a girl group" thing. It's just gotta hit hard for them since they're so young and only a little more than a year into their career so those first impressions and comments must hit home a little more than a veteran group that knows to deal with it I think.

And yeah those outfits sure are...something lol. I really liked their intro outfits and the white bridge ones. And the choreo does seem multidirectional which is dope.

SuperM has been a weird one imo
They clearly put in the resources but I don't think the product comes out as they imagined. Any EXO/NCT/SHINee material comes up vastly more refined imo.

Yeji is so amazing. If Ryujin didn't exist, she'd be my bias in that group for sure. In her letter to Midzy portion, it was kinda surprising that she wasn't hoping to be the leader at first because she felt she couldn't handle that burden, but the girls came through and lessened that for her.

But yeah she has everything. Great dancing, cute af offstage, presence like a dragon on stage, and her vocals and rapping are nothing to laugh at.

Oh wow, both BTS's Dynamite and the English version of More and More dropped on the same day.
TWICE's English improved nicely since I Want You Back. Jeongyeon and Chae especially killed it imo

Also some weird thing is happening with it. It's under the channel Various Artists for some reason instead of the official JYPE Twice channel.

Besides Lia, can't tell if they practiced hard to improve their english, or practiced hard for just that. I thought Chae or Yuna didn't speak it at all.

Yeji's outfit on point. Yuna literally eats like a kid.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Weird "More and More" started as a English demo but it rearranged into something more lyrically misplaced. It's not NCT bad, but compare it to Hyolyn and BTS recent work, it's bleh.

This need a production team and label that will do them justice. They have the the talent. "Get It" under the V name was pretty cool. "Drip" was so-so.

If they started doing English versions of their singles I wouldn't mind that. I know Momoland's been doing it lately with Thumbs Up and Starry Night.

I was honestly shocked they released it two years after the original song but it was a pleasant surprise, because it's very good.

Not Shy performance vid dropped

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOKMx1jeCjY

Been watching that, the practices and performances.
I wouldn't jump to saying this is the best thing evar, but it was just very well put together imo. Seeing the body of work pulls me more away from how attractive they are (well, I don't really go that way since they're pretty young), and more towards the work they put out.

And not to make comparisons, but other recent girl group releases have been mad boring in comparison.

Not the industry per se but she had a falling out with her company and tried to bring SoRi down with them. The company sued CoCo but I don't know what happened with that. They never spoke of it again after the lawsuit.

But both Yukika and SoRi though...

I'm glad some of my Idolmaster KR girls are still in the entertainment industry.


I loved this drama, highly recommended if you want a show about K-pop idol life.

Ah okay. Thanks for the clarification!

Also, Yuna is crazy good for being only 16

https://youtu.be/fQoeQYeUbdc

She already has that bubbly Sana energy down pat and she has great intensity and pop in her dancing.

Idolmaster and RGP is the shiznit! I keep wondering where's my Suji ; ;

Speaking of idols who refuse to give up (sigh rip Pristin... again), I'd already gone through all the stages of grieving for Brave Girls so I was very happily surprised when I saw their cb recently. And on a completely unrelated note since Yukika and before I'd also been wondering why we don't see a lot more city pop, specially for groups, since even though it's a niche genre it's such an untapped direction, I hope we start seeing more of its influence. So yeah.
