Taemin

velvet · 5 November 2023

A few thoughts from yours truly:

- Highly proud of Golden Child and their comeback. This feels like such a natural direction for them and it's executed perfectly, one of my fave songs from the past few months in K-pop.
- A bit of growers here. I didn't get Taemin's guilty straight off but watching him on Music Bank is so god-like and captivating that I appreciate the song now. Same thing with Viviz' Maniac. Both songs are enhanced by their performances.
- We should ban Taemin from saying the word 'rizz'
- Idk who Eite is but I'm loving their sound right now, great single album.
- Though Neverland isn't a masterpiece, I'm defenitely enjoying what Nine.i's doing right now and I can't wait to see what they do next
- I was expecting the Jungkook album to be worse but it's actually quite cohesive
- As a Luvity I should feel honoured that we got a Megaphone MV but I'm worried for their health, you don't just promote for another two weeks with a THIRD MUSIC VIDEO after FOUR WEEKS OF TWO TITLE TRACKS

1) I'm LOVING Catch the Young's Youth; they sound very promising. I'm also digging the guitarist with the red hair.
2) Weeekly shines once again with Vroom Vroom! They're just as good of OT6 as they were OT7!
3) I really never thought of the Cravity situation, and I thought the three MVs in four weeks was just them being generous, but now that you bring it up, @velvet , it does sound like they're being overworked. idr who their company is, but they need to get their shit together.
4) Neverland is nice, not spectacular... but the synthesizers here kinda give off Crown vibes.

I'm not usually somebody to be into K-bands but I'm liking catch the youth's vibe rn, wondering what they're gonna do next

I made a post about it:

A rant about Cravity's schedule and promotion - K-Pop Source — Keeping the K-Pop Forum Spirit Alive

Okay, I'm gonna attempt to summarise this quite plainly: Cravity is HEAVILY being overworked. This isn't normal 'Oh the company needs to put them on a break they're probably tired' shit this is 'holy fuck some of the members are injured and sick and their health is failing' type of shit...

The company is starship, they're known for shit like this
