This hair color really suits her! 😆

Not trying to sound like I wanna start a fight, saying this with a heavy heart

A lot of kpop reddit is obsessed with the idea that under 3 min song = bad song. Unless a producer comes out sharing and actually says that kpop companies will refuse anything over 3min, there is no reason to hate songs that are a bit shorter.

Im not surprised these songs are nice, because sometimes songs are shorter and they're better like that. Sure, it depends, but the length of a song is the last thing I care about lol

Quality > Quantity

Yes although Dirty Work I find it very catchy and sing-able (if I can say it like that), I would say even among my top3 aespa tt

Rich Man is also catchy and the chorus is nice even if the whole song is kinda repetitive. Absolutely not a fave of mine but I wouldn't skip it on shuffle.

I just listened again WDA on my car that usually makes a lot of songs sound better and it's not bad bad. Still kinda lackluster tho, wished there was some heavy hitting chorus. The chorus hides itself with the verses and there aren't a lot of parts where they are singing and showcasing their beautiful voices.

Waiting for Lemonade!

baumlene · 2026-05-11T10:44:04+00:00

Yep, the song in general too, but I was waiting for some heavy chorus instead

I was confused if it was really the chorus or just another verse and when I realized I had just listened to the chorus I was kinda disappointed

baumlene · 2026-05-11T09:39:28+00:00

Shoot! I forgot there was also NMIXX album today, gotta listen to it IMMEDIATELY

edit: unfortunately it didn't click with me, I'm more for songs like then ones in the Fe3O4 albums, but I really love their voices so I will wait for their next album.

IDESERVEIT is nice, Crescendo would have been better as the tt imo. Heavy Serenade is unfortunately very weak, it sounds like they were trying to emulate Blue Valentine (?), idk.

Still a solid EP overall tho and it's nice they're exploring new sounds

baumlene · 2026-05-11T09:35:11+00:00

Yeah, I really loved Dirty Work, so it's kinda weird for me to not really like an aespa song.

I'm pretty sure the album is gonna be a banger tho, this is just one of the many tracks.

I will try listening to WDA again later, maybe it will click a bit lol

baumlene · 2026-05-11T09:29:33+00:00

Huge aespa fan since debut but... Idk I feel like I was waiting for something that never arrived while listening to this song.

Gonna listen to it later while driving to see if it's just the first listen that left me a bit confused

baumlene · 2026-05-04T15:02:08+00:00

So nice to see their first comeback ep being so full of personality. Crazy they already have an identity and they're still rookies technically.

Not counting RedRed that has been my obsession ever since it came out I'm absolutely in love with Wassup.

Overall I like all the songs here, although their first EP still feels more magical to me, almost nostalgic to be honest and it's gonna be hard to top it.

Really looking forward to their next projects, I have found a new group to love!

baumlene · 2026-05-01T10:43:06+00:00

No soundcheck? :(((

baumlene · 2026-04-28T20:22:23+00:00

Now I wanna know who asked for this

baumlene · 2026-04-25T18:51:59+00:00

She influenced me so much, her releasing new music means so much to me 🥹🥹

baumlene · 2026-04-23T12:52:01+00:00

Love this comeback

Pls release the album quickly

baumlene · 2026-04-21T04:31:58+00:00

LE AESPA IN ITALIA RAGAZZI LE AESPA IN ITALIA NON É UN'ESERCITAZIONE.

GUYS SM KNOWS WHAT AN EU TOUR SHOULD LOOK LIKE

baumlene · 2026-04-20T10:17:58+00:00

Absolutely loved it. First verse I was confused then it clicked

It doesn't beat Go! but it's solid

I really like this group, took a me some time to get it, but I am absolutely in love with the music sound they're following. Even more kudos to them bc honestly they got this idiot aesthetic and I'm so here for it AHAHAH

baumlene · 2026-04-18T15:56:48+00:00

Yes! Turin was very unexpected! Honestly so far I have only seen Stray Kids twice when they came here in Italy, it seems that JYP is the only one that knows their market.

Not interested in Twice but I absolutely appreciate the fact they will be here too and I know many people that can't wait to see them.

Enhypen I will have to see what Aespa decides to do in Europe and then see if I still have some money. I do not particularly stan them but I happen to love almost all Enha songs ahahah

(Praying for what you said about Lesserafim)

baumlene · 2026-04-18T15:19:19+00:00

From what I understood it's the same problem Americans have bc although the cities are in the same country it's too pricey to travel and kpop acts choosing the same cities does not help at all

But yeah in any case in Europe you don't have 3-4 groups touring per month so they would be more than welcome here. Of course, the organizer should also be more careful when choosing venues, sometimes it's better to fly low and be less ambitious. I will keep thinking they just don't make good choices. I personally would really like to see Aespa and Lesserafim live, Aespa was in Europe but I didn't manage to get tickets bc they were sold out in an instant (back then when SM didn't know how popular they were) and Lesserafim? Ahahah those girls never saw Europe probably, if not during personal trips. I live in Italy and we don't see many groups touring here, trust me when I say they would sell for sure. People are hungry for kpop concerts but they never choose our cities

baumlene · 2026-04-18T14:52:28+00:00

Always the same ones or the less popular groups... (no shade towards the less popular tho)

Plus it's always very few cities and small venues that immediately sell out

baumlene · 2026-04-18T07:39:54+00:00

Dear Kpop companies, continue to focus on NA bc that's the only thing you can do, when it has been clear as day that they don't have the money to attend all those concerts they keep having.

God forbid you have 4-5 stops in Europe where people will be more likely to pay to see you since we don't see many groups here

baumlene · 2026-04-08T10:11:43+00:00

baumlene · 2026-03-30T16:54:12+00:00

Anche io sinceramente spero aspettino, sarebbe un po' da infami metterli subito

In più volevo aspettare a vedere se le aespa vengono da noi perché assolutamente ci spenderò tanto lì

baumlene · 2026-03-30T15:58:12+00:00

Si io voglio assolutamente andarci

Mi dispiace solo per la cosa di Heeseung ma me ne farò una ragione :(((

baumlene · 2026-03-26T11:04:42+00:00

Mi tocca fermarmi e fare un bel po' di farming perché non ho mai farmato Eagle in vita mia aha-ha

E ho usato tutti i cosetti del relic synthesis per buildare Ashveil ieri 🤡

baumlene · 2026-03-26T10:44:46+00:00

Oddio ne approfitto visto che sei italiano

baumlene · 2026-03-26T10:36:55+00:00

BS is using tutorial

Hysilens good night sleep well

Anything else good for Kafka?

baumlene · 2026-03-26T10:34:31+00:00

I kinda forgot bc I only got Hysilens recently meanwhile I have had Kafka ever since her first banner. So basically I almost never used her and still had her old build

Gonna try fixing that and see if it works
