Taeyeon's new music video premieres in 30 mins

This is cute and I can see the song growing on me.

 

[XS.]

it’s pleasant enough, I just can’t see me listening to it again.

Me when I think about Taeyeons entire discography minus Why :)

Barbie Girl sounds like Wa$$up meets Dal Shabet... it's kind of trash but also I'm bopping a bit ddd

 

[nikkysan]

Happy is cute, but I echo the sentiments in this thread. But she's been through too much shit recently so we will be streaming.

Knock is a bop much better than Blue Flame imo, but the video... where is the budget? Looks like one of those super low-budget Japanese comeback MVs. JinJin needs to stop with the uber-masc Jackson-esque rapping.

 

[Empty Shoebox]

It’s seriously terrible. Even @Empty Shoebox can’t ironically stan this.

Which other fourteen videos have I seen that 'street' set used in?

Probably not the same place but I was reminded of those bops!

 

[clowezra]

Taeyeon can serve some extremely interesting and fantastic pop music (Something New and I Got Love are masterful), so it's a shame to hear some of the more generic material she's served with the last record and now this. Hoping she mixes things up next time.

 

[Vixen]

It reminds me of IU.

 

[Wills]

‘Knock’ starts out majorly promising, but the chorus is too rhythmically jarring - it really could’ve benefitted from a steady beat to tie it to the verses. As it is, it totally upends the momentum. The undercooked melody doesn’t help, either.

Diminishing returns: we hate to see it.

… it kind of sounds like a GOT7 track ddd

The shade...and to me if feels like that they seemed to sacrifice the other members for Eunwoo (nothing new) and Moonbin (and I mean I love Moonbin). Moonbin and not Rocky getting a dance solo (low key the 2 of them (or the whole group) doing the routine in the water could have been a moment! Moonbin and Eunwoo both singing more than MJ...yeah, I feel like such a horrible fan but I've been slightly underwhelmed with both this and GOT7 comebacks. Astro is WAY more energetic and capable of so much more than this and don't even get me started on GOT7. Give me a 7 track mini where one member writes and/or produces one track and let the best song be the title---and no JYP interference.

I do like "Knock" a lot, it is a bit underwhelming though, especially after "Blue Flame".

Meanwhile, rest in peace faves, IU is coming:


I feel like she's about to serve a major straight up pop anthem to assert her dominance in K-Pop.

 

[Island]

Ok Miss IU. Be that bad gyal.

APRIL's impact.

also in Thai bops

 

[Dek]

Taeyeon said she's working in a new korean album and also in a japanese album
wow

 

[Dek]

Only the second boy group this year to hit #1 on Melon!

you forgot the part of Zombie Hours

I really liked NCT Dream before but now is just like NCT 127 this is so weird to me

Scream at Blackpink and Twice having a comeback again in the same month.

You better scream when BP and Twice have their comeback in the same week or maybe 1 week of difference since YG is known for trying to crush their artists comeback with the popular ones

Even more impressive they managed to get #1 while armys were mass streaming BTS then.

ddddd what are you trying to prove here? NCT Dream got a chart achievement no other NCT unit managed to before and it's obvious fans were happy about it? And #8 is far from a shitty chart position, I don't know what you expect me to say.
