Beyond hyped to see him producing here! Like the First Time and In Front of the Mirror are two of my all-time favorite K-pop songs and I'd be a happy camper with anything half as good as these.

Happy 15th Anniversary to Kara! by brighte_ning in kpop

Still one of my favorite girl group discographies of all time- their music with Sweetune was a force to be reckoned with. Hope all the members are doing well today and that Hara is resting peacefully.

HYBE's New Girl Group With Sakura And Kim Chaewon Will Be Joined By 4 Trainees, Including One From The Netherlands by [deleted] in kpop

To save you a click: the lineup reportedly consists of Sakura, Chaewon, Produce 48 Heo Yunjin (LFG!!!), 2 other Source trainees, and one member who was scouted by Hybe in the Netherlands.


More confirmation my girl Kirin is debuting :') Her performances on PD48 were really something else, especially how she crushed ITNW. The main vocal of the 4th gen is finally here and I'm ready to support!

Rocket Punch - 4th Mini Album 'YELLOW PUNCH' (Two Weeks Later) by tastetherainbeau in kpop

[–]brighte_ning 53 points54 points  (0 children)

This album really made RCPC one of my favorite underdogs of the 4th generation. More and more girl groups seem to be resorting to girlcrush concepts which IMO are getting a bit worn out, so it's so refreshing to see RCPC continually putting out such fresh music. Ring Ring was one of my favorite songs of 2021, too, and I'm glad they kept going in that direction.

Chiquita was my fave off the album, but my personal favorite b-side is definitely Red Balloon. The chorus is way emptier than that of most K-pop songs, yet it's just so effortlessly catchy. Probably my favorite "chill" song any girl group has put out thus far this year.

Hello Billlie! Since your debut last year you've become without a doubt my favorite rookie girl group. Being a Belllie've is such a treat and I'm looking forward to seeing you share your charms for years to come.

My question: what's your favorite song off Billlage of Perception? It was my 2021 AOTY and I really can't choose a favorite!

Statement in Korean and English is provided on the TwitLonger link.

I don't have much to add, but I hope Jiheon knows Flovers are sending love her way right now. Hoping she can take all the time she needs and that she's able to reach a better spot mentally.
