Some are saying Wendy's solo was the best part of the whole song.

Some might even say that it's the only good part of the song.
They still seem like a promising group, though. I might not like the song, but they're obviously talented.

That chorus is driving me nuts ;_; It went all Return of the King, felt like it ended 3 times then just kept on going.

For me it was the opposite, i was still waiting for the song to actually start, felt like the whole song is an intro.

Wendy sure does have a nice voice though.

Meanwhile, Sunny Hill as lovely as ever. (they look like grown up A-Pink in this new song.

And can't never get enough BESTie. The girls are HOT! They are definitely going up in my top 5 charts.

[Anakso]

I don't see how you guys can see the song as just an intro or all ending! :<

Not a fan of the Sunny Hill song but then they've only released a couple of songs I liked.

Well, the beat is just the same all along, there is no crescendo. After the intro i expect some variation, there is just none.

On AKP there are so many ppl that says the song is just plain bad. The girls are great though, nice voice, nice dance, but the song and the choreo are just meh.

Treat it as an A-Pink song you should like it.

Oh and that other song is out too... The song is good, the rapper is bad though. And those outfits... the black one is ok, except i'd buy it for my future GF. The red one is just ugly.



If they would remove all the moves they do on the floor it'd be great.

You wouldn't happen to know what the 23 means do you?

I wouldn't say it would be great, just better. The floor stuff got a little too "The Exorcist" for me to take it seriously. Song's decent enough, if a bit underwhelming. MV was a disappointment. When I first heard that the MV would have a lesbian couple scene, I was all like "Yay, queer interest in Korean media!". I should have known better, tbh.

No, wish i knew. Shall investigate that! it's a shame i don't read korean

Haha, Dahye is definitely the selca master. so much pics of her

[PantsDePeon]

That food is making me hungry.

On that video, someone said in the comments "23 = MJ?". Made sense to me when I saw it.

[Kagdar]

MJ? and it's supposed to mean what?

[PantsDePeon]

MJ as is Michael Jordan. 23 was his number when he played basketball. Regarded as one of the best players ever.

If that's not what the 23 is referencing, then I have no idea what it means.

[Asmekiel]

By hair color:

Wendy = blue
Seulgi = yellow
Joy = green
Irene = pink

Ha exactly, do you like them btw Asme?

Yes! Think I found a new group where I want to learn the names.

[Deleted]

MIIIIG! BUMKEEEEEY! KINDA!

[BHD]

Shame San E ruins it :/

[Anakso]

Awesome! Someone else that liked them as much as me, I knew I could count on you! Though I didn't quite because of the whole f(x) thing but I was hoping xD

Also someone called Black Pearl Best with an avatar of Yuri that I think I've seen you use before just +1d my comment on youtube, was this you!

That just made me realize your name is Asmekiel again
When did this happen.

Nope, wasn't me.
About 1,5-2 months ago.

[Anakso]

I didn't expect Mig to like Red Velvet, even before they released their song, but I have to assume the only reason he hasn't posted since it was released is because he liked it so much he fainted and hasn't recovered yet. It's the only logical explanation.

[Asmekiel]

Or he hates it so much that even a link to it in this thread is enough to never visit the site again.

[Anakso]

Not just this site, the internet. He now can't internet because this song exists there :< Bye Mig!

She's Canadian! makes me so proud.

And apparently she was in Henry's 143 song
EDIT: finally it's not her, it was Irene. Oh well, not the first time my source have been wrong.

[Anakso]

Awesome, she has an OST too.

And looks like they covered their bases with the group, a Japanese speaker for Japan activities and an English speaker for English speaking country activities. Hopefully they actually use this group rather than have them release this one song or one mini and then bench them for a year. No main dancer surprised me, maybe one will arise later though, or they're all just super pro dancers. They seemed good in the MV, I liked their dance.
