these are some of the worst teasers SM has put out in years. they just missed the mark completely photo wise. especially when you compare it to the creative that came out for RBB and Perfect Velvet. RV does kitsch and costume so well but these just aren't that.

I'm hoping the MV pulls everything together and makes up for how off these look. thankfully the music sounds great.

+1

This is bad meaning bad not bad meaning good

[vintage-boom.livejournal.com]

yea :/ and like SM has done the photo/illustration hybrid for NCT127's Cherrybomb teasers and pulled it off really well. this just isn't executed very well. the styling isn't even the issue for me.

this makes me miss Bad Boy. I feel like they just keep going downhill since then.

[cosmicdaze.livejournal.com]

the styling for this era is astronomically bad

[scionofawhisper.livejournal.com]

I hate the balloon thing cause it creeps me out but I honestly love the weird af styling.

[aeries-amethyst.livejournal.com]

None of these outfits look good. Absolutely none! Tragic styling all around! OTL

I do like the first group pic however, probably because of how the girls arranged. For the second group pic, I'd say Yeri, Seulgi and Irene look the best minus Yeri's jacket, Seulgi's skirt and Irene's shoes.

well at least it's an actual song

[kcaomei.livejournal.com]

oof these outfits aren't even fun ugly, they're just ugly ugly

I’ve kinda accepted this styling sucks

But that teaser for this title track has me a little worried...idk I wasn’t feeling it. I’ll wait for the full product though

[yxerin.livejournal.com]

...well i guess i’ll have to be hype for the rest of you lot. i’ll take this any day over power up

[oh-folk.livejournal.com]

Power Up was such a disappointment. At least the mini had good b-sides.

[yxerin.livejournal.com]

in hindsight, i said this a bit too early lol

[oh-folk.livejournal.com]

It seemed promising. We've been zimzalabim'd bamboozled.

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it'll be good. Power up was Abit shit and idk why am chose that.

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

Ive given up on sm giving the girls decent styling but song wise ive loved all the snippet teasers so far and am pretty excited

[dull-and-wicked.livejournal.com]

this styling just hurts my eyes, but like not in a good way? idk how they managed to put them in such expensive stuff but still managed to make the visuals look so cheap

[frequency.livejournal.com]

i'm actually okay w/ the first pic (minus wendy's almost-mullet) but that second one? jesus, it's so bad.

[magicpineapple.livejournal.com]

Did the stylists get into BI’s LSD or something cuz that’s the vibe I’m getting from the styling tbh...

Yikes @ Joy’s hair tho.

[lizanka23.livejournal.com]

yes. agreed. power up was a good song but i think the song itself was too juvenile for them. i wish SM would save songs like that for their new girl group kind of like how sm gives the more bubbly childish songs to nct dream, a unit of teenagers, and not the other units. Irene is already 27. SM needs to calm down with that lol

[lizanka23.livejournal.com]

the styling is tragic but seulgi is the only one selling it for me like actually posing and giving some energy in the photos. on the plus side, the title song sounds better than all of the b-sides combined to me

[aleksu7.livejournal.com]

The outfits are atrocious! but how sexy and fierce Seulgi looks with that hair..

The song sounds good so far but my spidersenses are telling me it's not going to be one of their best red songs

[myungung.livejournal.com]

the song teaser sounds very happy carnival-ish, so I'm quite piqued. but then the visual teaser wise...
