MADEIN -- Nagomi

After a good deal of internal debate, I decided not to post MADEIN -- Super Obvious.

Although the song interests me for various reasons, I was mindful of the boycott a group of fans have announced following former member Gaeun telling of her being […]

NiZiU -- Emotion -- Performance Video
https://youtu.be/uHlZlNY29H0?si=7P2FNdtANHNNPgTf

I'm charmed!

As is so often the case, I prefer the performance video to the original MV.

It's probably too packaged & polished Kpop in Japanese for a lot of Jpop fans, while those for whom the cute doesn't […]

This Jpop -- or are they JKpop? - group have now released a second MV with glitches, twists,and turns that I enjoy.

I like the MV, but I hope they release a performance version and promote on Kpop music shows.

And it's […]

I love GFriend's Japanese songs.

NiziU -- What if

"What if" is the first NiziU track of theirs to really excite me. With it's Jrockish sound, the MV occupies that sweet spot between Kpop and Jpop.

I can't make complete sense of what is supposed to be happening in the MV; I don't know if it fits into some pre-existing NiziU […]

We were talking about ME:I the other day.

I really like this comeback of theirs! I think , although I'm not sure, that it is written and produced by e.one.

ME:I are a Jpop group who emerged from a Korean-Japanese co produced Produce 101 show. They are very Kpopish. I really like this stage :
