I have such a soft spot for Oh My Girl. There’s just something about them that’s so endearing. Anything they do puts a big smile on my face, so I was heavily anticipating “Coloring Book.” I think that this comeback has been a little divisive; either you love it or hate it. I happen toContinue reading “Oh My Girl Comeback Review: “Coloring Book””

Girl’s Day Comeback Review: “I’ll Be Yours”
It took me forever to check out Girl’s Day because of their hiatus. Now I totally wish that I had discovered them sooner, because I absolutely love them. They have great music, great moves, and great style. Hiatuses can be tough on a group’s relevancy, so they must be top tier girl if they’re stillContinue reading “Girl’s Day Comeback Review: “I’ll Be Yours””
Pristin Debut Review: “Wee Woo”
Pristin has a lot of recognition for a rookie group that just debuted a few weeks ago. Most of them competed on Produce 101, and they got two members into I.O.I. The remaining ones held a series of concerts last summer to introduce themselves to the public. Plus they’re the sister group to Seventeen, who is becomingContinue reading “Pristin Debut Review: “Wee Woo””
GFriend Comeback Review: “Fingertip”
Normally, I avoid teasers because I find them misleading. But GFriend’s teasers got me so hyped. The Awakening, indeed. The popular girl group is clearly ready to their expand their horizons, and this comeback is supposed to signal a big turning point. It turns out that “Fingertip” isn’t that different from their previous work, but it’s a solidContinue reading “GFriend Comeback Review: “Fingertip””
Taeyeon Comeback Review: “Fine”
Love her or hate her, Taeyeon is undeniably a major force in the K-pop industry. Her album is charting well, and she got both an all-kill and a certified all-kill only a few days after the release – after the major changes to the chart, no less. Her new album shows her at her bestContinue reading “Taeyeon Comeback Review: “Fine””
Gugudan Comeback Review: “A Girl Like Me”
I’ll admit it: I really only paid attention to gugudan because of the I.O.I connection. That is, I did at first. As I got to know more about them, I came to appreciate them as a whole. They’re a very talented group with a lot of potential, and they have a lot of charm. While I wasn’tContinue reading “Gugudan Comeback Review: “A Girl Like Me””
Lovelyz Comeback Review: “WoW!”
I feel like Lovelyz is one of those groups who are kind of in the middle but still doing pretty well. They haven’t yet achieved “notoriety” or reached some milestones considered important for a K-pop group’s success (like music show wins). But they seem to have a solid fandom, and their albums and songs chart well.Continue reading “Lovelyz Comeback Review: “WoW!””
Twice Comeback Review: “Knock Knock”
It’s amazing how far Twice has come in such a short time. They’ve accomplished so much in a year and a half! 2016 was very good to them, and it seems that 2017 will be no different. In the space of its short promotion, “Knock Knock” has topped the charts, gone head to head with BTSContinue reading “Twice Comeback Review: “Knock Knock””
Red Velvet Comeback Review: “Rookie”
I’m always down for a Red Velvet comeback. They’re not just one of my top girl groups – they’re one of my top K-pop groups period. I wasn’t quite as enamored with “Rookie” as I am with some of their other title tracks, but I think that it does fit well with the signature soundContinue reading “Red Velvet Comeback Review: “Rookie””
CLC Comeback Review: “Hobgoblin”
To put it kindly, Cube Entertainment has been going through a lot of changes lately. They just lost their two most influential groups when they disbanded 4minute and Beast decided to form their own agency. Although they still have Hyuna and Hyunseung, their remaining idol groups must really be feeling the pressure. CLC is theContinue reading “CLC Comeback Review: “Hobgoblin””
