I Feel Good – EXID

Posted in KPOPTagged Leave a comment

I am totally in love with this track at the moment. Regardless of all the hype with other more famous bands, I really like this song. It sheds a new light on this rookie group who made heir debut at the start of the year. The song is quite addictive for me, as I spent hours listening to it, and I still do. Though I think song is award-worthy, many others don’t think this group is as talented as other groups, but I think EXID will last long (Hopefully, I did not jinx them).

Anyway, the song is excellent. I love and I am in love with it. I really love the start, as it kind of matches into the song quite well. I really love the rap sequence at the start. The chorus was really catchy, and those really good moments right after the chorus is really good. I am also “Never stop the music” and “Never stop the good night”, because it the most  addictive part of the song for me.  I also like the bridge of the song. where they incorporated the violins into the song, as it really something different compared to other pop and techno songs. I like it!!!! The vocals in the song are really good as well, I am still not familiar with the member’s name yet, but I really like the notes at the end.

The music video is quite weird? Not sure if this is the word to describe this. I love the humour, like at the start with the really expensive car and bike, the ironing shopping, traffic directions and the kindergarten teacher. I love it how, they actually have really crappy jobs, but meet up at what seems to be a really expensive bar, or at least one to get in. Well, the club is closed, assuming because of how early they turn up, and they become sad because they cannot get in. However, one of the members open the door and the group breaks the rules and goes in. Then they dance, around stripper poles, and on the dance floor. (Can I say something, that moment would’ve been quite boring in my point of view, a club would be better with more than 5 members.) After that, they are discovered, tired from their play and were shoved out of the club. Interesting, but funny at the same time.

The dance is really good. I don’t think they would rank high with the dance, but I with their live performances (in terms of their vocals) make up the loss).

I would give this a 9/10. Really good song, dance and music video.

WOW – BTOB

Posted in KPOPTagged 2 Comments

A really good song from BTOB has been receiving my attention a lot lately. I was not technically a fan of their debut songs, and the other amount of songs that they had, but this one is quite different. I am not sure if this is more of a pop song than the other songs. I think these types of the songs really suit this band and I have to be honest, they have gone a long way. Though, I am still disappointed in some parts, I still like this song.

Well, the song is definitely different from their debut songs. They are more pop-ish nowadays. Not sure if it the seasons or just their direction they want to go in, but it suits them. I really loved the beat of the song and the vocals in this song. I quite like the start where the rapper of the group is like “B to be back, Be to change the game, Be to catch your swag” part. Though I hate the word swag, (quite recently though), this is quite a good part of the song. I quite like the chorus of the song, as it matched the song’s instrumental. The only thing I don’t like was the really high voice just before the chorus. Not really keen on guys auto-tune or actually naturally singing that high. Oh and also, did anyone catch the 4Minute reference? Your homework is to find that! HAHAHAHAHAHA….

The music video is also quite interesting. Not really the best, I have to say, but it is quite different. The dance is quite good, but the stroyline was quite weird. The guys evaporated from sght, making them vampires or something, but when the girl touches them, they evaporated. Disintegrate. But how the director decided to film these certain parts kind of make them look like the guys were desperate for the girl, so guys need more than a few touches, some guys just disappeared from sight at the sight of the girls. I am also think now, that the vampire theme does not really suit the tone of the song, it suits 4 Minute’s Volume Up more than this really jumpy song.

The dance for this song, is pretty cool, just something I would not dance to. Their costumes are great for the song on stage, and there really is nothing to complain about. Wait, how about fireworks? That would be cool.

8/10. The music video just lacked it. Beside that, everything else is pretty good.

Dreaming I – F.Cuz

Source: http://www.allkpop.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/20120801_fcuz2-600×406.jpg

Even though this is a while back (don’t worry guys, many of the reviews that are ancient will be about ancient songs like PSY’s Gangnam Style and Super Junior’s SPY), this is a really refreshing song to listen to. I quite enjoyed it, with the song lyrics and music video having some really deep and meaningful stuff in it. You cannot argue that this video is meaningless and crap. It is much better than other videos that have been released in the past and future of KPOP.

This song has a really refreshing tone in it. It was some kind of electro-ballad which sounded really good to listen to in summer, since ballads are more suit for the winter times. The lyrics though is the thing I want to focuz here because it is like what I said before, deep and meaningful. They compliment the music video! Even though the title of the song makes no sense what so ever, I really like this for it. “I could dream and that made me the happiest”, “My beating heart is saying something”, “Take your hand out of your pocket and raise them up high” are just some of the snippets which I have pulled out the song, in less than 3 minutes. [NOTE: I do not translate any songs, I just pulled them off a site, in this case, kromanized]. But out the whole song, only one line summarises this whole song and music video up. Nothing beats this line literally. “Believe in your dreams”. That is deep.

The music video is kind of really interesting. I do not mean, they PSY kind of interesting or the Super Junior type of interesting, but actually it is a really interesting video which got me interested. It is about a group of guys who technically fail at the things they do. It seems they have given up, through the amount of people who around them, do not support them at all (instead, yell at them a lot). They rebel in a sort of non-rebellious way, wiht the help of some young kids, who I am assuming are them. This signifies the lyrics, as they keep on saying “When I was young”. They band together to have some good times together, knowing if they believe in their dreams, they will succeed.

The dance of this song is kind of boring, but I think the song makes it up for it anyway. Just they sound good live.

To be fair, I’d actually give it a 9/10. (If I was bias, I would bump it up 1 extra). “Believe in your dreams”.

Poison – Secret

Posted in KPOPTagged 2 Comments
Source: http://d1i45kki000yqu.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/120913-secret-poison-inside1.jpg

OMG, Secret is back, with a brand new song and really sexy and elegant look. It has been around a year already since their last Korean comeback and has been a year since they have been in Japan promoting full-time. Now, I need to get something off my chest. BANNNED!!! I can seriously imagine this song getting the back hand from the banning agency or whoever does it in Korea. It is so damn “revealing”. I can give many reasons why this video would be banned. Regardless. Look at the girl’s legs. Too sexy. Look at the girl’s cleavage. Too revealing. Look at the shooting scene. Too violent. Look at the spiking drink scene. Too inappropriate for young teenagers. But I do hope that this song will remain around. I love it.

This song is so damn catchy. I was already in from the start. I had “You are my poison” stuck in my head for ages. Though their English is not exactly 100%,  I could still understand everything. The saxophones in the song really complement the dance and the actual feel of the song and music video. Actually, I felt their vocals have improved greatly. They sounded really professional (which they are) and really serious. Move over cutesy girl groups, Secret is here. It is powerful and really elegant at the same time. I am not surprised that the girls have this feel. I want you back, Magic, Madonna, Shy Boy, Starlight Moonlight and Love Is Move all have their unique characteristic. This song as well. I really love that long note at the end. Really well done and fits the song really good. I also loved the rap. There is nothing wrong about it. I fits the song. I actually think the person in the song that stands out is Zinger. It has to be.

On to the music video. SEXY!!! Summed it up in one word. Basically, but the plot line is really flawless. I love the fact how they incorporated the “poison” bit into the song. Onto the plot: The music video was really dark. Hyosung  was given the job to spike the detective, to distract him, I am assuming from the very start. The girls have previously made contact with the detective, or another male figure, who had the safe box’ code tattooed on his back. Hmmm. About that, not really that good. Well, Zinger writes that number down and hands it to the singer. They then band together to get to the safe. However one of the girls is taken hostage. But Hyosung, comes in time with another gun, shooting both men down. The girls quickly steal the jewellery that was in the safe, and escape in a car. The detective soon comes and is confused. Yeah, basically that is the music video’s plot in a short summary.

There is one thing that I am confused about though. The car that they escaped in was not technically moving, right? Well, so why was there car sounds. That makes no sense what so ever. Why KPOP videos, why do you do this to us?

The dance to this song is really sexual. It kind of has a Beyonce feel, but also they held back as well. I guess they were trying to be “safe” in a way. I kind of like the “Gotta Be, Gotta Be your poison” dance part. Really sexy and original. But beside that, I find that the girls have definitely have upgraded in looks but sadly downgraded in their bodies.

If I was to rate this. definitely be giving it a 10/10. No buts, it is one really good song. Really addictive and sexual.

My My – A Pink

Song

Yep, this song one hell of a song. A new rookie group who made a comeback with one award worthy song. Definitely a song to try and listen to. I was not much of a fan of their recent song (Hush). I think I was meant to review it, but somehow it got lost in the process and did not end up on my list. Or did I review it? It is not easy to remember 130 reviews my friend, but now I actually remember that is was my 100th review. Enough of me selling this site to you.

This song has that really laid back but average KPOP vibe to it. The only thing that made it stand out of the crowd is definitely the catchy chorus. But once you get hooked onto the chorus, you will end up loving the song. Not kidding there. I listened to the song at first, but did not like it. Listened to it a few more times, and then it grows on you. Next minute you know, you are singing aloud with the catchy “My, My. Your my”. The beat of song is pretty good as well, matches the cute voices of the girls, which makes the whole song much better. Along with the high note towards the end and that mini dance sequence instrumental, this is one really good song.

Music Video

Okay, this I am lost. They are a bunch of girls, having fun. One notices that another has a love letter and make fun of her. Then they help her. Then they start break dancing in an abandoned place. Yeah, not really sure about this. But beside that, there is not really anything to say, except for pointing out how cute they are. You see. How cute are they?

I think my job here is done actually.

Live Performance

The dance is fits the tune and instrumental of the song heaps. Everything is cute, and actually really does not affect the quality of their songs. Even the break dance part, was well handled and well done, especially when they are the aegyo type of girl group.

And The Rating?

8.3333/10. Really good.

Sexy Lady – Wooyoung (2PM)

Posted in KPOPTagged , 1 Comment
Source: http://tengqwxxx.tumblr.com/post/26615673721

Song

Guys, I don’t know what my feelings are for this particular song. I don’t listen to it much at all compared to other songs that came out around the same time. I don’t think it is bad, but it is not technically good at all. I think we can all agree that this song is not the best solo debut song out there. I actually prefer label-mate Jo Kwon’s song more than this.

As I am typing this up, I actually think his song does not really fit this type of club music. This voice is a bit too husky for this song and I think he relied on a bit too much of the background vocals in the chorus. I also felt the song’s beat and rhythm was a bit dead to be a clubbing style song. Clubbing song, which will be reflected in the Music Video section, should be more uplifting, not an average KPOP song.

[NOTE]: I am not being biased here. Wooyoung  is my favourite member of 2PM, just this song was not it. Actually, little side note as well: the whole album was not right for him as well.

Music Video

This music video felt a bit dead. There Wooyoung is and his is rocking at a club, probably getting all the ladies, and there is just him and a few dancers, dancing in the middle of the stage, surrounded by the most saddest crowd in the world. I thought girls would squeal and scream when they see Wooyoung not stand around and thinking that this is some kind of ballroom dance. Hands Up had this as well, and now Wooyoung?

Also, what is with that car and the dancers, are they trying to make themselves look cool? The lighting is off, giving Wooyoung weird coloured skin and the dancers are just pretending to be cool. The only thing that I would agree with in this song, is the amount of girls in the video. If you are puzzled, just watch The Boys by Girl’s Generation.

Live Performance

I actually like this dance. It is pretty good and actually reflect the lyrics. At the start of the chorus where he is all like “You keep circulating in my head”, he touches his head and rocks side by side, like blood is circulating in his head. As for the Sexy Lady part, I am not sure. There is a time and place to but ants down your pants.

And The Rating?

I would give a 7/10. Sadly, I expected more of a dance song, from the lead dancer of the group, not some thing that tries to sell him.

Pandora – KARA

Source: http://seoulbeats.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/20120827_seoulbeats_kara_pandora1.jpg

Song

This song is pretty cool. It is more serious than their last comeback (Step), but not serious as Lupin. I really love the tune. I am not really a a big fan, but I have to say, I was hooked onto the song straight away from hearing it. The instrumental was really really good and appealing. The only thing I have to say about the song which was the let-down, would have to be English in the song. The start I thought, they were saying something like “Oppa-yaaaah”, but turns out they are saying “Up and Up”. I Actually was surprised. Beside that the song was pretty good. I loved the rap as it blended in with the whole song. Yeah…

Music Video

I found this music video like any other music video in the KPOP industry. In the room. No sense of other civilization. I actually thought the music video was dark somewhat, because of the dark colours the girls were wearing and the back ground. They did try to add colour into the music video. but it kind of looked dark as well. Also those eyes, kind of actually ruined that part of the music video. I enjoyed the high note part, but the eyes were kind of creepy.

Also Pandora’s box is not clear at all. Thought I just say that. I would rather think the box would be opague, as it contains the evils of the world. I hope I am talking about the right box.

Live Performance

It is basically the dance from the music video. Nothing changed. I did like the fact that they actually sang live for the whole stage. They always impress me. I also find their costume quite okay. I really do not understand  the lingerie scandal. They look fine. Even though it is not what they were wearing in the music video, but they are fine.

And The Rating?

I guess I have to give it a 9/10. Really good, song, music video and live performance.

Day By Day – T-Ara

Source: http://d1i45kki000yqu.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Tara_musiccore070712.jpg

Song

This must be one of the slowest songs ever for this year. But not only that, it is pretty good. Despite their scandal recently, they have held a strong song. Not winning any awards unfortunately, but this song is still award-worthy. I really love the steadiness of the song overall. It is summer and summer is known for dance dubstep shuffling music, and this song is kind of a relief from this song. However I felt that they held back a bit too much for this song as well. Slow is not really T-Ara’s thing. I like it, but this is really not an image for them, compared to other songs like Lovey Dovey, Cry Cry, Roly Poly etc.

Music Video

This music video is a lot like Cry Cry and Lovey Dovey. Just only the type of song and title did not really fit the music video. This was kind of Zombie Apocalypse and fighting style kind of music video, but yet we get some unappealing and unfitting.

Besides that, this a a really rocking type of music video. Blind girl (Dani) and her sister have survived a evil villain. They hide in cars and live their life in freedom but with their guard up. As for the villain, she is going around looking for Dani, those with or without an answer is killed. Later the villain’s army finds Dani and her sister. They fight. Sister is defeated and Dani taken away from her. A guy turns up and save the sister’s life, while Dani is trapped in the cage and the villain soon notices that this girl has amazing powers. Then the sister wakes up. Wow, dramatic much.

As for the dance version. NO. THIS SONG DOES NOT A DANCE. Totally ruined it. I don’t want hands flying around me and stuff like that. Rubbish. Oh and those awful flashes, and the really annoying change over cuts, are really stupid.

Live Performance

No to the dance. Thank you very much.

Flashback – After School

Posted in KPOPTagged Leave a comment

Song

This must be one of the better songs on After School in my point of view. The other songs were kind of bland and did not go straight ot the point, yet still winning many awards. This song is much different. It is like the other songs (Diva, Bang, Shampoo) but is much more updated. It is more straight to the point in a way. I really love the actual song altogether. The start to beginning. Nothing technically ruined or spoiled the song for me. Despite not winning any awards for this song. I stilled liked it.

Music Video

The music video is kind of like T-Ara’s Day by Day, where they dance and close-up were shown of the members. However there were scenes of the girls dancing around the guy, while the guy was tied up in a chair. Also scenes of the girls singing to themselves in front of mirrors, and that really long walk they had in the music video. I just wished to say, that the camera was kind of shakey. Not like SM’s Earthquake camera used in A-Cha, but watch where the all the girls are just posing, kind of shakey. Out of all the scenes, I loved UEE’s scene at the very end of the music video, where she shoots the guy. No wonder she is my favourite in the group.

PS. Also, I hated those lights in the back. I know that they are meant to be making the girls look beautiful and quite sexy, but no, just a big distraction and turn off.

Live Performance

I loved that Panorama dance. I think that is what they call it. (Correct me please,) but that is one of a line up. It looks so freaking cool and quite original. I also liked what the girls where on each stage, kind more casual than suits and dresses. ( I am referring to their more recent performances on the music shows).

And The Rating?

8/10. Just the music video was quite a let down for a really good song.

Have Fun Watching. Troy 😀

I’m Da One – Jo Kwon

Posted in KPOPTagged , Leave a comment

Song

I absolutely fell in love with this song when I first heard it. It was catchy, it was upbeat and technically, it deserve more than one award. There was nothing wrong with the song (well, exaggeration here, I will explain later). Though it is quite different for him to have an upbeat, happy, light hearted yet meaningful song since 2AM normally does Ballads, or actual sad dance songs, I was quite surprised that he pulled the song off quite well. It is a really good song to listen to. I was not that confident in his album. Beside this song, I really liked Heaven, but the rest, I felt it was kind of bland and not as outgoing as Jo Kwon is portrayed on TV shows.

The only thing I must say about this song, is that it has the worse pronunciation mistake, or what I think it is, ever. When Jo Kwon goes Girls, Girls, Girls and Boys, Boys, Boys, it sounded like a whole different language. It sounded much different than Korean, but did not match with another language. So yeah, that bothered me, but beside that, it was a good song.

Music Video

This music video on the other hand was good, but quite cliché. I mean, like from the start you could tell that the Jo Kwon’s assistant or “manager” wants to overthrow Jo Kwon, with the help of the storybook, since most fairy-tales would be told the same way. Also when the poster of the “manager” is put up, and with the rain. darkness and snow, you knew automatically that the newer poster would fall and Jo Kwon’s face would appear.

However, despite the cliché start and middle, I was quite surprised with the ending. The “manager” either grew bored of having power or kind of just went blanked, while in power and just handed the crown over to Jo Kwon. Though I was like “eh”, I was surprised, since, and I must admit, the music video was slowly building up to its climax, and then it just went straight down, in the worst story form ever.

Anyway, I love the fact that Ga-In was in the video. It was not that hard to find her was it?

Live Performance

I found the dance kind of boring, and not appealing. The music was upbeat, the music video was great, but then the dance just sucked. I agree with 2AM when they said they looked awkward when dancing n stage, Jo Kwon was definitely awkward on stage without the others.

And The Rating?

7.5/10. Sorry, but the music video, song and performance’s flaws were kind of big. Sorry.

Love Style – Boyfriend

Posted in KPOPTagged 1 Comment

Song

This is the first Boyfriend song that I liked. I was not really fond of them in Boyfriend and Don’t Touch My Girl because the songs sounded quite cheesy and kind of to cutey boy song, which I am not really fond of. This however is actually quite cheesy and a cutey boy song, but I don’t it as annoying as the other two songs. I think when I first heard I was hooked onto the song straight away. While most of you guys, (hopefully, big generalization here) are relaxing Summer heat, We Southern Hemisphere people, particularly in Melbourne, Australia are freezing our butts off due to the Winter weather. Yeah, I know this is normal for some countries, but I am hopeless in the cold. 12 degrees is so freaking freezing for me. Don’t ask, I am weak.

Anyway, I really like the chorus in the song and the rap. I just found the English in the song a bit concerning. Not sure if that is the right word, but “We’re Right” in this song, sounds like another language was added to the song. I did like the beat and instrumental of the song.

Music Video

I found this music video pretty good, despite it being a cutey boy song. The only thing I am definitely am not sure of is the floral suits. Not cool, not that great. Pretty bad. Actually the only down side to the whole video. But beside that, I really liked those hanging light sticks thing. They look quite nice. Me want.

Live Performance

Same with the floral suits. Not cool. I did find most of the dance quite good, despite it being like other dances by Boyfriend. But I just noticed, while typing this up, they have good dance, but don’t really fit into the type of song they are singing. Anyone with me there? Or is it just me?

And The Rating?

Pretty good for a band that I am not technically fond of. 8/10.

Song

This song is definitely not the best. I don’t hate this song, but I don’t like this song as well. The electronic beat and the Spanish accordion  don’t go well together.  Nothing was appealing to me in this song, so I have to say this song was quite …crap. Nothing was to my preferred liking. None of the members voices sounded that good in this particular song. So yeah. I did love Believe, so that was good.

Yeah. Only give it a 3/10. Not that good, as you can tell.

I Love You – 2NE1

Posted in KPOPTagged 2 Comments

Song

This song rocks. I was really expecting something upbeat like what was at the end of the song, or something like I Am The Best, as their teasers showed, but it turns out to be a ballad with a bit of electronic style mixed up, so I was quite disappointed. But the song is still awesome. I really like the vocals of the group. I actually like all parts of the song from Minzy’s introduction to CL’s Long Note to Park Bom’s chorus and Dara’s natural but auto-tuned parts. But it is all good. I liked the rap at the end o f the song, as it was kind of unexpected. It was like the twist in a story that no one sees coming. ‘

Music Video

This is something that I find kind of different. I am not sure if this different is a good or bad thing. But I still like the music video. It is much different than their past videos, but quite similar to Sistar’s Alone. (Mainly the car scenes). I am quite confused with the doors in the middle and at the end. What happened behind the closed doors? No one knows. I also don’t understand the light house. I think this puzzled everybody. Like seriously, this is a love song, the only reason why I would think a lighthouse would be present in the video is that their lover is at sea. So confusing. There is no evidence of this anyway.

I would like to address Dara’s hair here. IT LOOKS AWESOME. DON’T CRY DARA, YOU LOOK AS GOOD, EVEN WITH HALF OF YOUR HEAD SHAVED. YOU STILL LOOK PRETTY. Now, to continue this review in a professional manner, everybody. (LOVE YOU 2NE1) (LOL).

Live Performance

Wow, though this dance is completely different from their other dances, this one i really good. The emotion is shown in the moves and looks really good. The start of the song was quite good, in terms of the dance. I also noticed a trend. You know how GD coloured his “seaweed hairstyle” with different colours, the same thing is happening to Dara. And also all the members look good.

And The Rating?

I’ll admit, I was a bit bias with some of my comments (Check the brackets in the Music Video part). But I wish only to give this song a 9/10. The reason why I took off the one mark is that I was disappointed since I was expecting something really good and bad ass. Sorry. Otherwise, I would’ve given them a 10/10.

Monster – Big Bang

Posted in KPOPTagged Leave a comment

Song

I must admit, this is not one of their best songs. It really is not really up there considering their past songs. I guess the only thing that makes it stand out, is its catchy beat and the chorus. It does have a good, solid meaning behind it, that guys (or Big Bang, in this case) are not hideous monsters when it comes to love. Yeah, I only found the English in the chorus catchy. I also really love that off-tune note near the end. It was definitely the highlight of the song, and actually suited the style of the song. The vocals were alright, but that rap at the very end (or was it just GD  murmuring?) did not really blend in with the sound of the song. Not my favourite song.

Music Video

I really liked the special effects that were used on the faces and the eyes in this music video. It is kind of cool. The things I hate about this video is the slow-motion parts and the Taeyang’s Sushi hair. Yes, you know what I mean about the hair. Yeah, not cool and won’t be a trend with the idols and KPOP singers. And with slow-motion cameras, they are kind of boring. SM uses them so much, so it is draining. But beside that I have nothing to complain about. Expect for the fact that Big Bang is singing in a war field. But yeah, it was good.

Live Performance

There is no official Korean performance that I am aware of, but there was a Japanese performance. It was good, but the only flaw I saw was Daesung’s nose piercing (also seen in the music video) and that off-tune note at the end. It is really hard to make the performance flawless for this song, I guess.

And The Rating?

Not really the best, but it was okay. 6.5/10.

Electric Shock – F(x)

Posted in KPOPTagged 1 Comment

Song

I find this song quite good compared to their other songs. I am not a fan and this song does not really change my thoughts about them. However, this is still a good song. It is addictive in a way, but is also annoying at the same time. I am not particularly fond of the “Electric Shock” part of the song. I did like the Na Na Na Na part of the song. Sigh, I thought I was easy to please. I found the vocals pretty good and the rap as well. There really is not much else to say about the song.

I found the music video is a bit too mainstream. SM always comeback with a music video that is in a really confined room. I did like the the background, because it looks like those heart monitors line.

However I found that the items used in the music video kind of made the girls look like as if they were going to kill. I mean, those weapons that they are holding are kind of dangerous. You know, they could have killed the cameraman.

I thought the dance would’ve been a bit more serious. Electric Shock sounds like a bad ass type of song, but the dance turned out to be a cutey, bouncing song, which I liked, because this song fits the summer season in the Northern Hemisphere. (May I emphasis that the Southern Hemisphere is currently suffering in the cold here. Melbourne is a bad place to be).

And The Rating?

I’d give it a 7/10. Not fond of the artist, but the song is still pretty cool.

Have Fun Watching. Troy 😀

Song

Ahhh, Another song which I love. Now this song sounds much better than DORADORA, but is really still not a hit. I ma quite surprised because this is the usual mainstream KPOP song you can find. It is something always this techno. This song is quite catchy and really addictive to listen to. I really like it how the everyone gets a turn, not like Super Junior where I just noticed that Shindong does not actually get any solo part and Kangin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Leeteuk only getting small parts. (Why am I talking about Super Junior?)

This song is more laid out and planned and sounds really good. The vocals and rap were good.

Music Video

Nothing really to say about this music video. I really did not flow in away though. See, Dongho was singing into the mirror and then the camera pans to Eli who is sitting on the edge of the bathtub.  The singer’s transition flowed however not the actual music video kind of flow. I felt this music video did not have much planning in it, and really was something thought of at the last minute. They probably picked a random tunnel, chucked in some made up house and looked for a public toilet in the music video. Really basic, but I have to admit, boring.

The dance is good as well. It was not as good as Neverland or Man Man Ha Ni. So yeah, as I said above, this must be something that was thought of at the last minute. Though I thought the ending was quite original. So yeah, good.

And The Rating?

I guess this song just made it to the 8/10 mark. I was quite disappointed with the music video and dance, but I liked the song. So yeah.

Have Fun Watching. Troy 😀
