God I love nugu mess. 
 

So UDTT is a 5 member gg but one of their members left pre-debut but it was really last minute so when they filmed their debut MV the new 5th member filmed with a mask on bc she wasn't fully prepared I guess lol but she's performing now without the mask lmfaoo


Members:

 

Risako: Japanese and GP999 contestant 

Chaehee: Korean

Hanna: Korean and My Teenage Girl contestant.

Jessica (new member): Chinese and Chuang Asia Thailand + Time Turner contestant. She actually made the final group for Time Turner (that messy gg survival show that aired live on TikTok) but left pre-debut.

Yejin: Korean and Universe Ticket contestant.

 

 

And the mess continues :skull:

aespa i'm so sorry people were comparing you to this omg :deadbanana2:

I could ramble and discuss in full detail why this song and mv is such a bad direction for the group but all I'll say is I hope the next comeback is before October!

Hopefully this board's collapse function on quoted posts is working correctly because I just want to say this is obviously some weird attempt at k-style viral marketing by this entity.  And it's obvious because of the name they gave to this girl group.

 

Stream the more traditional form or notoriety building instead.

I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT

Just heard that Gnarly song…. And yeah :ahh:

let's wrap it up and skip to 2027 already 

I actually think Gnarly works :rip: The problem with these "I'm the ****"-style songs is usually that a.) the performer can't carry them, so it's unconvincing, b.) it's just musically not good, and c.) there's nothing less edgy or cool than trying to look and sound edgy or cool. 

 

IMO, Gnarly has none of those problems cause a.) Katseye are very charismatic, b.) there's a good mix of cacophony and more traditional rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic elements, and c.) the song is not trying to be edgy or cool, it's trying to be ridiculous and over-the-top. It doesn't come off as try-hard so much as it comes off as intensely camp, tongue-in-cheek, and a little bit silly. The delivery, the nonsense lyrics, etc., the whole vibe is both embracing the noisy, braggadocious, "I'm the ****" movement in pop/rap while simultaneously satirizing it. 

 

I don't think it's some layered artistic masterpiece or anything, and frankly 2 minutes is crazy, but I do think it's a really ambitious and kind of high-concept song that's understandably divisive. A wildly unexpected release tbh. Like if they're going for mainstream global appeal this is a crazy direction to go in. The MV is unobjectionably great though.

Sorry you guys will NOT be convincing me "Hottie Hottie like a bag of takis" is anywhere near a decent song

I like how open, honest and self aware they are in general, which is refreshing to see in Kpop :dies: This TikTok was also pre-recorded a few days ago, which means that they knew how people would react to Gnarly

WOW this is horrible 

No wonder they're a HYBE group 

Lara gives off the kind of energy that makes you instantly know she's the funniest person to be around, like you'd be laughing 24/7 :dies: I seriously want to be her friend :dies:
