I am back, well, almost back because I am still slightly sick but way better than two days ago so here I am, posting another new music and MV review post, just because I can't sit quietly and watched TV all day or just spend the whole day taking a nap and did nothing. My leg is still hurt, painful as hell!
Back to the post, so KARA had released their comeback hit Wanna a few days ago, and like I said before, I really wanted to make a new music post about it. So here it goes. The song is titled as Wanna, and firstly, let me say this. My first impression of the song wasn't good. I expected much after watching the teaser, as if I was getting really excited but when I heard the song, it was just not my cup of tea. I really LOVED Pretty Girl and Honey, but Wanna is somehow, not my liking. So it was hard. I gave it several more tries and I admitted, for me, it was like having bitter coffee (just because I am a coffee-holic), though it's bitter, the more I have it, the better I like it. I am not saying the song is bad, no, it's just not as catchy and fun as Pretty Girl and Honey. But I understand that the five girls of KARA are changing too, throwing away their cute image for sexy so yeah, the song kind of being stuck in my memory for a while. It turned out to be catchy and fun, but slightly repetitive but, because I am okay with that, I will say, after two days of being sick and was forced to listen quietly to my mp4, I think the song is good. Not extra-awesome or something, but it was worth it, it was good. Throughout the song, I only love the part where it goes "그대는 사랑해 my love" (the hangul-spelling part isn't confirmed, I just write whatever I heard). The beat is funky, reminded me of the first KARA, the one with their ex-member, Kim Sunghee debuted. Their strong image, my favorite image of KARA. Thank GOD they didn't go for the cute image again or else I might die of having too much girls around acting cute.
So now, about the MV. I am not sure when it was released, but I guess it was yesterday. I think the main girl of the MV was Kang Jiyoung. When I watched it, my mom was actually with me and she was surprised. She couldn't believed these five girls are the same girls who sang cutesy song Pretty Girl (remember Hara with the fluffy whatever hat?). I admitted, they really looked sexy, and I liked it. I like girls in a girl's group to wear different clothes and not matching ones because it will show their personalities more. In the MV, I swore I totally loved Nicole and Jiyoung. They looked totally beautiful. Jiyoung lost weight, right? And so was Nicole, right? Jiyoung looked different, and I couldn't believe that she is even younger than my younger sister! They looked amazingly beautiful, even in the eye of a girl like me. I love the clothes the girls wore in the MV ; especially the blue jacket Gyuri wore during the dance sequence and the destruction of the main male character's house. Their style for this song is so awesome. I loved it very much, way better than I liked their image for Pretty Girl. The concept of the MV is simple and cute too. It's like very cute, having the girls destroying the boy's house because they thought he didn't like Jiyoung but it turned out he actually liked her. The song sounded better with the MV for me of course. The MV is not actually extra-ordinary, but it is fun to watch. The choreograph seemed to be simple, perhaps simpler than Pretty Girl (in which it took me a week to memorize everything and managed to dance to it properly) but I kind of liked it, very much.
So now, as a conclusion, Wanna hadn't really been my favorite this week, since I already felt in love with another song, but Wanna is really catchy, I must admitted. It's not yet addicting like Pretty Girl, but I liked it. My mom said that the song was okay, but she doesn't actually judge a song through MV. She said she might say something about it when she watch the live performance, that means tomorrow at KBS Music Bank. Yeah, my mom loved watching music shows more. Well, I liked the song but it takes a longer time to get use and to memorize it. The beat is nice, but I am not sure what made it kind of hard to swallow. I'll be addicted to it soon, I strongly believed that.
I hope nothing but success for KARA. They had gone a hard time after debuting and they only got their recognition after a year of debuting. I can't wait to watch their comeback performance tomorrow, because I want to see the choreograph for this song. I am so glad they didn't adapt the cute image or the neon-leggings-ultra-shining-colorful-pitchy-rap-voice concept what-so-ever than had been somehow like a trend in South Korea. I am not bashing, I kind of like it, but K-Pop had seen enough of that concept. Thank GOD, KARA came with their own strong sexy image.
