Song Review: Welcome To MY World by aespa (Feat. naevis)
It would not be an exaggeration to say that I haven’t heard song that quite sounds like ‘Welcome To MY World’. In the case of this song, it is a huge compliment. I am a huge fan of the atmosphere created through the production which is strengthened by the carefully chosen chords of the vocal…

Song Review – Spicy by aespa
Admittedly, I was very underwhelmed by ‘Spicy’ at first listen. There was barely anything that got stuck in my head. None of the vocal melodies truly made me feel eager to keep listening.

With K-pop’s limited attention span and ever-changing landscape, it is hard for artists to remain relevant. Being an idol is like a ticking time bomb. The harsh truth is that many idols don’t even get…

Song Review: Beatbox by NCT Dream
NCT Dream’s music has always clicked with me. Even as their musical direction evolved when the members themselves grew older, I have been able to appreciate their title tracks. Even Glitch Mode, which is probably their most polarizing release, is a song I can get behind. Beatbox returns to Dream’s roots as a playful and…
