song is bland, the dance break saved the song honestly.

I actually really like this. It's definitely different from everything else she released so it took me a second (lol) to adjust to it but if another artist had released it I think a lot of people would have really liked it, and honestly Hyo has enough energy and brightness to pull it off. It's reminding me of another couple of kpop tracks that I'm trying to remember the name of that I also like.

Oh no I've remembered! It reminds me a little bit of Lim Kim's Awoo (https://youtu.be/CXPADwU05OQ), just with a lot more energy. Just because that's something that Hyo doesn't normally release doesn't mean I can't appreciate it as a nice song, tbh. It's also a wise choice in that it really suits her voice I think, whereas sometimes with her harder hitting tracks the tone of her voice is a bit jarring. The dance break is really fun and fits in really well! The energy isn't completely out of place with the rest of the song though the harmonies in the bass are kind of jarring. I love the energy of the backing dancers too lol! So often in videos you see them just kind of doing it with no expression which, fine, they get told to do that, but I love what they're bringing here.

Feel a bit like I'm tripping reading these comments lol, I really like this, it's a nice little song!
