i love it??? its cheesy but i love catchy and cheerful songs i feel like it would really suit being a soundtrack song for a kids film but thats not an insult lol
the mv is really fun too. i'm not that familiar with onf's discography outside of their titles but this isnt their usual sound right? i love it anyway i'll listen to the whole album later.
Omg check out complete (ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECE), on/off (debut), all day, good good, Sukhumvit Swimming (previous cb MV HAD ME GAGGING!), New world
i loved sukhumvit swimming thats why i checked this one out! i havent heard the rest you recommended though ive added them to a playlist. i think the only onf songs im familar with are we must love and why and i wasnt that keen on them when i first heard them but i just relistened and i dont mind them either now so maybe i was just in a weird mood all the times ive listened to them before lol
honestly i feel like beautiful beautiful is kind of a, like, return to form for them! i skipped out on a few comebacks bcus i didn't like the direction that they were going in but this definitely aligns more with the sound i came to expect from them
some recs:
their first two minis are great front-to-back but i tried to give more variety !! i also really liked THE REALIST off this mini
tysm for these! completely adore original and difficult i see what you mean about their early stuff being great i really feel i have deprived myself not being aware that their bsides were like this lol
People already recommended Original and Completesus so my work here is already done lol
But on a more mellow note, I really like Moscow, Moscow:
I haven't still listened to this album but they released a mv for My Name Is (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GhfmqGxyJ4&ab_channel=ONFOFFICIAL) a couple of days ago and it's a really cute song/MV. For some reason it reminds me of Pentagon's Round 1/Round 2. Fromthe ones others haven't already mentiones I really like Fly me to the Moon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PtTJkMgX78&ab_channel=ONFOFFICIAL).
I really liked their earlier releases. Later on the direction they went on wasn't really my cup of tea and I went MIA, too, lol. Listen to Incomplete. Melts my cold heart everytime. (Other great songs have already been rec to you as well I see :))
This is my favorite song from them imo. And if you like cheerful songs then you're gonna love this. i don't know how they allowed this song to be a b-side.
this is my fave song of the week! congrats to onf! đ„đ
this video is so fun to watch, i've played it more than once already. love the air hockey scene especially but i wish the costuming were different for it (onf + plaid is so tired!!). hopefully they'll put out a performance m/v soon too
Who keeps giving Hyojin terrible hair? WE NEED TO TALK.
The song is really fun and catchy so it's a yes from me. I still need to listen to the whole album tho. The music video looks greats at time, and it's very reminiscent of their past ones.
Give me everything T__T This is kind of the direction I'd love to see them leaning to more as well in the future
Can we talk about The Realist. What can I say I'm in love. I'm just sighing, the vocals. I just love how they sound alone and as a whole. Thermometer. Secret Triangle is just the embodiment of ONF. Feedback is also a good song
I actually didnât. Thanks for sharing this with me. Iâm happy this song gets promoted as well with not knowing how many b-tracks we get to see performed in the future. I really just love their voices. WM Entertainment chose well. Iâm not sure how they usually perform, but the dancing isnât grabbing me.
(I remember with B1A4 they didnât put too much emphasis on dancing, but the choreo suited the song and they executed it appropriately. It was kind of charming in its own way.)
Do you follow ONF closely? Can you give me a run-down what they have been up to? My mind just goes blank with stuff happening after 2017.
Edit: I looked up some of their live performances. They know how to perform. They are great. So idk why this wasnât picking me up. Guess I just have to wait for further lives.
i know, i used to hope that all my fave b-sides would be performed at concerts but that's not even a guarantee anymore :( but i love their voices too! and i'm glad their producers figured a way to balance mk's tone, i used to think it was just a touch too nasal
i don't think this choreo is their best, i just rewatched the beautiful beautiful showcase perf and it looks so much better to me! for what it's worth, i think they're much better dancers than b1a4 are; i just don't think the realist has the best choreo :x
i also don't follow onf super closely but! i got into them a little more with rtk so i can at least go into their 2020. idk if you've been keeping up with their comebacks but after we must love (my drop off point!) they released âwhyâ (https://youtu.be/v20U_QHLuks), ânew worldâ (https://youtu.be/dtZZVPb36J0) (which has a minkyun composing credit on it! and is their original song from road to kingdom) & âsukhumvit swimmingâ (https://youtu.be/LjstRrZASb4). i can't say i kept up with any of the promotions for them but why is my favorite of those and i like that mini, too! if you haven't listened to the mini i'd def recommend it. âmoscow moscowâ was posted earlier and i genuinely think it's one of their bests, it's beautiful. now for rtk stuff, onf was definitely a dark horse on the showâbut if you haven't seen itâtheir highs on it were the âit's rainingâ (https://youtu.be/l7s_o5yZ_jc) (orig by rain) performance and the âwe must loveâ + âmoscow moscowâ (https://youtu.be/A4XDPtmAq_g) performance (featuring yooa), which definitely deserved more hype than the cover of everybody they did, imo! i really don't follow their individual activities (like, i don't even know if they have them) but hopefully some of this is news to you đ€
They were on road to Kingdom? I can imagine them doing well. I just saw they were on MIXNINE as well?
Oh dear, Iâm super bad with keeping up with promotions and individual activities. Itâs very time-consuming. Itâs not like when I was younger and was very dedicated to keep up-to-date with everything regarding my favourites. I usually only remember nowadays to check out their music when I get a notice and if itâs good I follow up with live performances/subs.
Thanks for the review. I will look into it in the future :)

Now with sleep and rewatching it and checking out Beautiful Beautiful I have to agree, the choreo doesnât seem the best for The Realist. Perhaps it gets better for different live stages? One can hope, lol. Sometimes with groups, I like their music, but when I see them perform live and see their interaction/personality shown member-wise, I donât feel the chemistry. If I had more time, I probably would fall hard for ONF. They have all the things I like in a good group.
i'm really enjoying the song but i just wish there was some more edge put into it? like another bridge or added more to the chorus. i feel like I've heard the chorus melody before but the instrumental is so good and their voices together pushed the song to the next level so I'm happy. I feel like ONF is one of the few kpop groups where all their voices sound like they were made to sing with each other?
The MV soooo cool. where does WM get the money for their MV budget. I have never seen a k-pop group get MVs that look as expensive as there's? i almost think WM has some secret connection with someone cause the group only started making a decent profit?
as for the album, i wasn't expecting much cause with k-pop albums i usually only like 3 or less songs and this album isn't that different. BUT I LOVE THE INTERLUDE? IM Sooo happy its a full song and not some 1 minute interlude. I also like secret triangle, and MY NAME. I wish they did something more unique for the chorus of the realist that's where it falls short for me. I'm still in the growing stage of listening though I've been at work all day
