All this lilac and pink asdfghhjkl LOVE

[kcaomei.livejournal.com]

this styling already looks way better than day 1's lol

[lydzi.livejournal.com]

I'm going to say it shamelessly: I'm here for goddess Joy ♥

[katheli.livejournal.com]

Umpah Umpah sounds absolutely terrible. Like I cringed just typing that. Hope the song's better than its name

[kenziekinz09.livejournal.com]

Umpah Umpah? This is a test of my affection

[pikapika217.livejournal.com]

Color wise this is more aesthetically pleasing and the styling is better so we'll see I guess.

[oh-folk.livejournal.com]

Oooo, I like. I feel like the color palette might save whatever potentially questionable fashion these teasers involve.

[croox-shielle.livejournal.com]

So in a previous rv post I said "stop making them sing about bananas!" and now this!? Idk whether to cry or laugh, omg.

At least the song doesn't sound bad and so far the styling it's better.
(burn irene & joy's boots tho)

[ashdevilrun23.livejournal.com]

I truly hated their last album.
Pleeeease let this one be good

[digitalqueen.livejournal.com]

the name....why aren't they allowed to have normal title tracks anymore

[lizanka23.livejournal.com]

seriously. it's ok to have a normal word for a title. also i miss the peekaboo aesthetics. this festival era is so ugly :/

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

Umpah Umpah?
Suddenly I'm stanning Zimzalabim

[daceymormont.livejournal.com]

teasers look cute but another shit song is incoming judging by the name

[gathyou.livejournal.com]

First Zimzalabim, now Umpah Umpah XD
I like the styling more already, and the preview sounds fun and weird (but in a bright way, Zimzalabim was ~weird but edgy~) so... cautiously excited ! Also ReVe Festival Day 1 had amazing b-sides, I'm ready for Day 2

[lizanka23.livejournal.com]

the song sounds pretty good but it might just be a snippet and the actually song will be all over the place like zzb lol. the aesthetics are kitschy but not the appealing kind. they have a playpen full of toys but they're in their 20s...i miss peekaboo/ red flavor aesthetics. even rbb was better to me. who is their creative director now that the previous one left? i just wanna talk for a minute

[4rang.livejournal.com]

This is super cute and I love it.

And umpah is the Korean term for a breathe control technique taught to children and beginner swimmers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[kjesta.livejournal.com]

thx for explaining the word!

i feel a bit annoyed when ppl complain about "nonsense" words like zimzalabim or umpah when they actually DO have a meaning, just not in english.

[4rang.livejournal.com]

You're wecome! :)

I am also definitely annoyed with some of the comments I'm reading. It's ignorant for people to automatically act like words/terms are gibberish just because they aren't familiar with them, especially considering that they're consuming content from a country whose language they don't speak.

[kjesta.livejournal.com]

Ugh hard same. I've seen people complain how the title is childish and they should do something mature like peekaboo again and like... PEEK-A-BOO. just switch your brain on for half a second and think about what you just wrote! (ofc the pab aesthetic was more mature, but going just off the name this is a ridic complaint.)

[frequency.livejournal.com]

makes sense w/ the water theme. thanks for posting that explanation!

[4rang.livejournal.com]

You're welcome!

The article that was just released this morning explains that the lyrics are swimming related, so the title is definitely on-theme.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

Thank you for explaining!

[myungung.livejournal.com]

ah it makes the name nicer sounding now that there is a meaning. instead of just random earworm words

[yxerin.livejournal.com]

bruh i was abt to tear into this title name but you hit me with that knowledge

[my68.livejournal.com]

Sometimes people forget they are stanning Korean groups who has an entire culture of their own unfamiliar to us and that Koreans who are born and raised there are mostly disconnected from the global English speaking society due to cultural and language barriers.

[sciencebottle.livejournal.com]

Is it just me or does the video just seem like some sort of advert for Nickolodeon or Veggie Tales or some 3D kids cartoon...

My expectations are so low, sigh. I hate that I'm so bitter towards RV releases now. feel like the MV is also probably going to be a dance scene or two, the classic RV sits at a table and stares at each other scene, or them sitting family portrait style and again with the blank stares....lol. I am really really not feeling this aesthetic.

[lizanka23.livejournal.com]

You described it exactly. The video looks so childish. Irene is 28 already. Someone save her lol

[kenziekinz09.livejournal.com]

Excuse you VeggieTales (the classic eps) is ART

[sciencebottle.livejournal.com]

I have no taste :'(

[sciencebottle.livejournal.com]

I think i'm just bitter haha. All I can think of when I see cutesy RV stuff like this is how dead Irene would probably look on stage and that kind of ruins it for me :( i'll hold out for the music!!! :'(

[kjesta.livejournal.com]

that teaser pic looks better than zzb already; not impressed with the snippet so far but i want to remain optimistic. i've liked most of their titel songs, including rbb, so i hope they have sth good in store.

tbh if i get something of the quality of "sunny side up" again (which is an absolute career highlight imo) then i'll even take a mediocre title track, altho ofc i want them to be successful.

[frequency.livejournal.com]

"sunny side up!" really is a great song

[lynethia.livejournal.com]

Already pre-ordered my Day 2 version of this mini! So excited!

[frequency.livejournal.com]

the cover makes me want to go to the water park even though i know it's a bad idea w/ all our storms, lol.

i never expect great styling w/ them, but at least it's a big step up from the "day 1" mess.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

I really like the last photo

[nefertitii.livejournal.com]

after being blessed with so many velvet releases we must now suffer through this childlish nonsense

[myungung.livejournal.com]

the styling looks nice, unless they're hiding Wendy in hideous clothes again.

I'm not sure why but I got ICC vibes from here
