[MV] IOI - Suddenly

Really nice to see almost all these ladies back together for a 10 year reunion. I like the retro synthpop vibes too. Feels appropriate. Cute video!

[MV] SOMI - BIRTHDAY

Somi gets her solo debut at long last!
(And YG Ent. implodes the next day. Lol. Dunno how much TheBlackLabel will be affected.)

[LIVE] Taeil X Sejeong - Loves Me Or Not

[DEBUT] Chung Ha (feat. Nucksal) - Why Don't You Know

Chungha's official debut is finally here kicking off the summer!
Very much in the same wheelhouse as Taeyeon's tropical house song from last year, 'Why'.
Their vocal tones are even quite similar.

I think it could use more on the low end and Nucksal is a bit unnecessary, but I dig it!

[MV] I.O.I - Downpour

Downpour of tears! Nice little retrospective of IOI's incredible year.
Even if you're someone who typically dislikes 'survival audition' types of shows, I'd recommend Produce101. It's an emotional roller-coaster, but it truly focuses on the hard work and cooperation of all the women who participated. Pretty amazing and unexpected that it turned into such a huge thing, but I think that has a lot to do with the grit and humor of the trainees through the whole process and the promotions of the final 11.
It's a shame to dissolve the group at this point, but...

Better to have IOI'd and lost IOI than never to have IOI'd at all.

[MV] IOI - Very Very Very

This will be IOI's last promotion as a full group.

[MEDIA] YOUTUBERS REACT TO K-POP #5

Featured videos:

• EXO - Monster
• IOI - Dream Girls
• Keith Ape - It G Ma

[MV] I.O.I - Whatta Man

HYPE!
This is what I wanted from IOI, post-Produce101. But we got some relatively low energy cutesy stuff. BUT NOW THERE'S THIS!

Is it cheating a bit by building almost the entire song on the Salt N Pepa / Linda Lindell hook? Yes.
Do I care? No.
Is it the kind of repetitive I usually don't like? Yes.
Do I like it anyway? Yesssssssss.

Chungha's (black hair) choreo looks great as well.
It's a shame a few of the other members have already moved onto their groups and aren't involved here...

[MV] IOI - Dream Girls

This track is weaker than anything that was performed during the show. Lol.
It's cute, I guess?

Yoojung's rap is a highlight.

[MV] I.O.I - Crush

Just in case someone is still catching up with the show...
This is a pre-lease for the 11 revealed winners of Produce 101.
Recorded and shot in a day as a bit of fanservice to hold fans over.



I got sucked into this show so bad. It's awesome. XD
