Seulong is hot. And that's tragic that I watched the whole video just to say that...lol. It's a mellow and sweet song. They all look really good. I know they're a ballad group, but I'd love to see them do an upbeat song.
Do you mean upbeat like uptempo or upbeat like happy? Because they did the former once before (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yo0zsqa06ZE&list=PLFD701BE42A72DBD2&index=22) and it was great. I'd love to see them do something like this again!
This song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1QpBuiKEnU) is one of my fave upbeat songs from them! That album (Saint O'Clock) in general is an effing masterpiece but yeah that song = gr8.
They've had teasers on all the big music shows and done a few variety shows, which is a standard amount of promo for them since Kwon stopped being the Big Thing in k-TV. Was there anything in particular you were expecting?
The thing is their Korean fanbase is probs too small to make more intense promotion lucrative, and their international following is too small to generate the i-fan twitter hype you get can get with other group comebacks
As froggster says, they appeal to the general public, and their songs tend to do reasonably well on streaming sites irrespective of how hard they're promoted just because Korea likes ballads, so I guess they get away with it?
Ok, I think I just shed a little tear here. Old lovers story makes me weak in the heart and the way the actor played it singing along with the beautiful song </3
The MV is lovely. I've never been a great fan of JYP's brand of R'n'B (it always sounds like elevator music to me :p), so I have higher hopes for the actual title track.
Wait. Why are they stamping JYP over this when 2AM has been with BigHit for the last few years and have been releasing their stuff with their branding?
