the MV looks very IU - 23. song wise it could be more upbeat and dance seems below what she can accomplish, but I guess it's only her debut and if she's going to sing live she can't have a difficult song? but the split dance in the 2nd verse seems interesting. visually she looked best in the 2 dance scenes and the cloud one. didn't like her in a high ponytail though. the irene visuals are also strong here
I liked the song~ seeing the comments so far, it does give off IU vibes, and I like that she tried something different from what we've seen of her in IZONE. I'm intrigued to see the entire dance. As for the album, I prefer her slower songs, but all in all, it's a really nice mini to listen to on a rainy day.
Oh that’s Eunbi lol. She was part of the half of iz*one I didn’t know who she was in a lineup. So hey at least I have a better idea who she is now. The next one is Chaewon, idk who that is but maybe I’ll be reintroduced to her when that Big Hit group debuts.
I like Door but idk if it has strong replay value for me? I’m still debating on saving it. Its pretty nice for a debut song though.
The album’s b-sides didn’t do much for me. Funnily enough the Open instrumental was the most interesting. Blue Eyes has some potential though.
it's a nice enough song. i think my problem was that the music video really didn't match the song at all for me. I think they were trying to sort of still play into the concepts that iz*one has played with?
that dance in the second verse with the male dancers carrying her is hella cool though.
I think I share similar sentiments, that bit with the dancers holding her makes me want to watch the comeback stage, the other dancing parts didn't live up to that, I also felt like it needed more energy, she can dance so I expected more.. but if she is going to sing live I can see why she might need to hold back.
Very jazzy! I appreciate that she did something a little different from other soloists that have debuted recently. Overall, I think it’s a solid debut and the mv is lovely to look at, but idk if I’d willingly replay anytime soon.
I'm actually digging this! It feels like a blend of the jazzy poppy vibes that regularly show up in kpop (most notably with IU) but haven't been heard as much in a while, and IZ*One's sound — the way Eunbi sings the chorus here reminds me of how IZ*One used her to add some impact to their songs. It feels like a clever debut for me, a good first step. She looks amazing in the dance scenes, great styling
Listening to the mini and it's nice, I think I'm going to revisit Blue Eyes the most. I welcome Babysoul as the obligatory rap feature instead of a random dude, even if I prefer her singing lol, but the song is a little corny? Rain and Eternity are cute.
Eunbi is part of the talented half of Izone (the other half being there for just visuals) but even during PD48,I have always found her to lack charisma and needs work on her expressions. I'm still annoyed at how they gave the main vocal position to Eunbi instead of Chowon for "Rumor" when Chowon's voice was stronger and then made Chowon the "rapper". I think Eunbi is better suited in a group where her talent is useful while other members can balance what she lacks. As a soloist, she is no Chungha.

Open is a great intro to Door.
