It's like dreamcatcher and everglow had a child, and I'm kinda here for it tbh

[kyungwons.livejournal.com]

the whispered curse at the beginning is my favourite bit i love it and i like that their rappers have deep tones.

i feel the dreamcatcher influence is showing though rather than them both just doing similar concepts there were quite a few similarities even in some of the choreo. i would still keep an eye out for future releases though i wonder if they'll stick with this concept or move on if pixies are the inspiration they could probably venture into a more soft dreamier sound too.

i thought there would be a bside or something to accompany this but apparently not! the song is up on spotify though which is quick for a nugu group.

the mv isnt rookie material, the song kind of is cause it didn't really go anywhere

ill be keeping an eye on them cause they seem interesting!

[jasmineakaiumi.livejournal.com]

This is basically how I felt about the whole thing. will def be keeping an eye out

I like it! I like bridge going into the chorus, the variance in tempo/mood makes the song more interesting. I do think the song is missing something but I did still enjoy it quite a bit!

I’m not crazy about the chanting for the chorus but when the vocalists come in right after, I’m into it. A little too much time to the rap line but they’re pretty decent, the raps weren’t bad like in other Kpop groups. The MV is pretty good especially for a nugu rookie group too! It kept my interest with the plot. Hopefully they make some money so they can do more with their MVs especially if they’ll be having storylines like this. My only main critique for the MV is with a clear storyline they created for this song, they could’ve added more acting scenes or tied together the scenes better IMO.

I don't hate it! and the youngest girl is closeish to 18, right? that's... not awful? jesus, my standards are low.

also the blonde/pink haired girl reminds me of Rose in a good way.

[dior-chic.livejournal.com]

The youngest member will be 18 in the summer? Most of them are 20

Yea I’m more willing to check out new groups if majority of the members are 18 and older.

[inwazyja.livejournal.com]

yeah, I was into the song and then realised some of the choreo would be not entirely appropriate for a 15yo, for example. It's not bad enough for it to be inappropriate for a late 17yo tho imho.

After the mess that is TriBe I just don't trust companies tbh.

[dior-chic.livejournal.com]

IA! Tribe I might revisit in the future but I skipped their debut since the teasers were really off putting (they told me enough that I didn’t need to watch the MV lol). When I saw that one teen dancing sexy I lost interest fast

[inwazyja.livejournal.com]

I did end up watching the video out of curiosity and the actual choreo isn't as bad as I expected, but the whole pre-debut nonsense was off-putting enough, so I'm staying away rn.

[dior-chic.livejournal.com]

Oh yea sorry what I’m referring to was the pre-debut teasers. The actual MV had all those stupid guns which made me roll my eyes

[inwazyja.livejournal.com]

oh yes, I managed to force that tidbit out of my mind already. Not into the guns at all - I don't mind when it's done like tongue-in-cheek (idk, obvious toys for 2s or something), but a whole ass video with 15yos handling various types of real-looking guns is nagl.

The theatrical dance they did in the beginning was pretty cool! I’m really liking the choreo for Wings too, these girls have stage presence for a new group

Glad to found the first rookie group I’m rooting for 2021 :))) looking forward to following their career!

[takemydream.livejournal.com]

the MV is cool and I love the styling and visuals. I don't like the song that much but I'm definitely curious about this group now

[myrrhcat.livejournal.com]

low-budget deukae! interesting.

this might be more impactful for me if it weren't their debut - i feel like the song & mv would both hit harder as a comeback. like for a debut i want something simpler that really introduces the members.

[rose-potion.livejournal.com]

I like it!
I know it's silly but I had a hard time counting the members T.T the darkness doesn't help

I think we see that abandoned circular building everywhere in men videos, Taemin, Stray Kids, Victon, ONEUS, ONF, VIXX and finally a girlgroup uses it!

[ginger-star.livejournal.com]

I don't follow enough boygroups to have seen it in all of them but I recognized it from Kim Lip's "Eclipse" solo. I've seen it since then in someone else's MV too but I can't remember whoooo D: It is a very cool building tho so I'm not surprised everyone wants to shoot there lol

[camouflagecat.livejournal.com]

Nice. I'll be keeping an eye out for them.

[ginger-star.livejournal.com]

I enjoyed this a lot more with the full choreo than I did with the MV, tho it is nice to see everyone looking so pretty in the MV. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the theatrical opening stuff of the live stage. The best parts of this are the scream on that first chorus and the whispering at the start but overall its pretty cool. I feel like the verses and chorus don't match each other?? but that's a pretty common thing in kpop lately and I'm sure I'll adjust and it will sound fine after a few listens.

I'm super excited to see if they keep this kind of dark spooky concept because its cool.

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

I agree, I want to see if they can turn it into lore or if it's just a one-time concept.

[xoxkenzxox.livejournal.com]

It's noise and I will call it out as such just like I do boy groups. No thanks.

[paige-nevaeh.livejournal.com]

They’re very cool!! I’m not very fond of the chorus just bc it’s so out of place. But the two rappers are great & some gorgeous visuals!

[frequency.livejournal.com]

the chorus feels a little out of place but otherwise i really love this, lol. i like that some of the girls have deeper voices. choreo looks really neat, too.

i am interested in seeing if they'll keep doing the lore for future releases. i'd hate to think it's just a one-time thing.

[neongoldtooth.livejournal.com]

It's not a good song. But the choreography is kind of cool?
One girl sounds like Rosé and another sounds like Dami. Definitely got the Dreamcatcher vibes and some of the choreography was similar too.

I feel like they have potential but this song and the mv was not it.

[chikage-chan.livejournal.com]

Love the concept, meh about the song! But I'll definitely check them out again!
