Knee Jerk Reaction: “After School” by Weeekly
Weeekly is yet another rookie group that I’m not super familiar with. I pretty much just know them as the latest group from Apink and Victon’s agency (Play M). I can recognize a couple of the members, but I don’t know most of their names. And while I did listen to their first two singles,Continue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “After School” by Weeekly”
Knee Jerk Reaction: “Killa” by MIRAE
MIRAE, the latest boy group from DSP Media, is the third rookie to debut this week. I literally know nothing about them except that one of the members is Son Dongpyo, who famously competed on Produce X 101 and was part of the short-lived X1. Plus there’s one other member was also on Produce XContinue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “Killa” by MIRAE”
Knee Jerk Reaction: “House Party” by Super Junior
IT’S FINALLY HERE! At long last, Super Junior’s tenth full album (originally meant to celebrate their 15th anniversary) has been released. I have been waiting for this moment for months, and I’m so happy to have another Super Junior comeback to jump headlong into. Since they’re one of my favorite groups, I was originally planningContinue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “House Party” by Super Junior”
Knee Jerk Reaction: “Young Blood” by Drippin
Woollim Entertainment’s newest group Drippin made their first ever comeback this week. Like many of the current male rookies out there, I know *of* them but not much *about* them. The main thing I’m aware of is that former X1 alumni Cha Junho is a member (and possibly the group’s face?), along with several otherContinue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “Young Blood” by Drippin”
Knee Jerk Reaction: “Do or Not” by Pentagon
Pentagon is truly a group that’s been through so much. I’ve detailed their ups and downs in some posts before, and I probably will again once I resume my Road to Kingdom recaps. So this time, I’ll just say that last year was thankfully a turning point for them in many ways. They poured aContinue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “Do or Not” by Pentagon”
Knee Jerk Reaction: “Ponzoña” by PURPLE KISS
FINALLY, I get to write about a girl group again! Nothing against boy groups, but I feel like I’ve been covering so many of them lately. And I normally listen to an even mix of both, so I’ve been feeling rather out of balance for a while. Thankfully, PURPLE KISS has provided me with somethingContinue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “Ponzoña” by PURPLE KISS”
Knee Jerk Reaction: “I Like You” by Ciipher
This week is a super busy one for K-pop – not only are several groups having comebacks, but we also have a few rookies making their debut. First up is Ciipher, formed by veteran soloist Rain under his own agency Rain Company. Some of the members might already be familiar to you – especially ifContinue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “I Like You” by Ciipher”

Knee Jerk Reaction: “On the Ground” by Rosé
Rosé’s song is FINALLY here! After many months (and a couple years) of promises, YG has finally delivered and brought us the much anticipated solo debut of BLACKPINK’s main vocalist. While I’m constantly frustrated by YG and their annoying delay tactics, I have to say: when they get something right, they really get it right.Continue reading “Knee Jerk Reaction: “On the Ground” by Rosé”
