It’s boring. The weird thing he’s doing with his voice in it is unnecessary and the mv is awkward. Beats ok but it’s a forgettable song. Not what I expected.
I like it! He sounds good and he looks good, it's definitely what i expected. Baekhyun can do amazing things with his voice so idk why they choose to play it safe with the title.
B was open minded to the company's opinions, but he strongly voiced out the choice of the title.
BH: Actually, my company were against 'UN Village' being the title. There was another song they wanted, but I told them I wanted it to remain and so they accepted.#BAEKHYUN (https://twitter.com/hashtag/BAEKHYUN?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #백현 (https://twitter.com/hashtag/%EB%B0%B1%ED%98%84?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) pic.twitter.com/wSqE8cpr01 (https://t.co/wSqE8cpr01)

I’m shocked by how nugu that MV is? At least Chen’s was visually interesting even with a similar “sing to camera” style. His lack of groove made me chuckle through the whole thing.
Songs ok. I’ll probably like it more with the rest of the mini but it’s not a what I would have wanted for him, especially with these visuals.
I maintain my opinion that pentagon hui (or kyungsoo!!) would have killed these songs lol someone with more depth to their vocals. baekhyuns breathy airy delivery on these does nothing for me idk what ones I’ll be listening to often. Not the jay park cover song tho that’s for sure.
Anyway glad kyungsoo will likely have the best release from exo month.
it's actually the default of the person who had the account before me and I was just too lazy to change it full time...and now i've circled around to like DO practically the most.
lol here's the whole story: the OG owner of this account and I are friends on twitter. I used to have an LJ account but deleted mine back in 2013-ish but we met on LJ originally (either soccer or another bg idr) so I knew they still had their account and were a member here. I wanted to talk about groups and the dramas they weren't really into so they lent me theirs and hasn't used it since.
it's been the same single person exclusively using this UN since early 2016.
I want to fight him! He looks amazing, sounds amazing. He worked so hard. Oops guess I'm one of the few that thinks he didn't look awkward and enjoyed the mv
I listened to the rest of the album and I love it. Was not expecting so much English and I'm literally blushing at Baek having a song that's so open in that it's about sex
I enjoy the song so much more if I don't watch the MV (what even is this boring MV ugh such disappointment). I've already replayed it a ton of times x___x Wreck my life Byun Baekhyun <3
Also I want an entire album of him singing Jazz covers, give me that next, SM!
I love the colour palette of this MV. The monochromatic theme is A+. Where is the resident SM stan who does those Film posts about K-Pop MVs? This is great material to add to that list.
The aesthetic and the song and his vocals remind me so much of Dean.
It's a bop! Just listened to the remaining tracks and I enjoyed them overall. But I enjoy all R&B in general anyway, so. Ice Queen and DIamond kind of blend together and don't really stand out though, I probably wouldn't seek these out specifically if I went back to the album. Psycho was an unexpectedly dark track for him though, that surprised me, and I really liked it.

Date: 2019-07-11 12:59 am (UTC)i like the chorus and that’s it. it’s very repetitive and kinda got bored halfway through this, but i like baek so i’ll check the album.
the mv was also very boring. this is a b-side, at most.
