[MV] LOOΠΔ / Chuu - Heart Attack


Give me those Magritte apples all day every day!!!
Different feel from the recent ones. Very theatrical. The b-side is still in that R&B range though. More towards house.
Chuu is the 10th LOONA girl to be introduced. Getting very close to 12 now!

I'm going to quote this from the description, because I'm living for this narrative they're crafting:
The new single lets the fans take a peek into what JiWoo, who has already been a popular trainee among fans, had to go through to become ‘Chuu’, and her desire to be loved by Yves, who also has said in her lyrics, “my heart that wants to be like you gets colored, filled with you.” 
The titled track “Heart Attack” does not interpret the feelings of being in love in a serious way, but with Chuu’s own adorable emoticon-like ways. The music video has references to historical and fictional figures such as the artist Rene Magritte, Hans Christian Andersen’s short story “The Little Match Girl”, and John Appleby’s novel “Aphrodite Means Death”... 
... When four girls who denied the garden of Eden gathers, the party begins.
My kind of party.

AAAHHHH. Might have one of those last minute additions to my top 30 list for the year. I love this! It's so happy! Groovyroom has produced so many tracks I've adored this year.

[SPECIAL MV] NU'EST W & SEVENTEEN - HEAVEN



Have to post this. So cool.
NU'EST W and Seventeen did a collaboration stage at the MAMAs this year, but as is typical of such award shows, the camerawork was less than optimal for seeing the actual performance. Here we get to see the full choreography in all its glory. Live sound complete with foot stomps. I love me some foot stomps. The song was made specifically for the collab. Fun having a total of seventeen guys for it.

Well, that was depressing.
Jong Shin's December release.
Nice seeing Bae Doona in a music video!

[MV] EXO - Universe



I just listened through EXO's winter album, which is lovely. Haven't been a fan of their main EDM/trap stuff, so hearing their more ballad/R&B-focused sound was really nice. I recommend it if you're into that sort of thing.

[MV] Uhm Jung Hwa - She



Awww, a sweet little retrospective on her career. That's cool.
