[OMG, It’s pointless]
Ahn Heesu

“Ooooh.. that’s all pointless…”
People say that there’s something called ‘5 stages of grief‘ after a breakup. (denial – anger – bargaining – depression – acceptance) Ahn Heesu‘s breakup song [OMG, It’s pointless] is probably at the 5th stage, or maybe the 6th stage ‘giving up’. He says that there’s no need for love or anything else. He just needs his cute dog that’s always on his side.
The humorous lyrics that cries out that thereโs no meaning on anything, and the cute cover image of a dog with an empty face – I call this ‘perfect’!

– Sorry for hurting you..
– I told you to listen to me just once..
kangpyo‘s debut single [trap] is about the willing heart to grab something blurry what we’ve missed.
We never notice that we are getting hurt by little wounds made by various relationships, before it rips you into ash.
But love, seems so big and beautiful to be aware of the disaster it’d bring.
kangpyo wants the listeners to feel comfort and responsibility at once, from the warm mood and relentless lyrics.

[She]
Park Eun-Ji
February 23, 2023
Park Eun-ji‘s third single [She] is somewhere between Pop, electronica and indie, and this will be her new start as an artist.
Oh sheโs a lonely soul.
She has her head up in the clouds and they say sheโs out of her mind but she can do anything she wants.
The song was inspired by the wind and sunlight that slips through the window of her new home. The songs made when she moved to the new place in Seoul shows how much sensitive she was to the environment surrounding her, as you can tell from the self-destructive lyrics.

I’m a kid
by Asian Boys, Crying
โฌ๏ธThe music video starts from a shot of a kid that seems scared of what to come, and shows the ordinary grown-ups who work, love, fight, eat, talk, study, write, draw and cry.
