    I must say NL is definitely the most confusing at first listen coz it’s like 2-3 songs are being mashed up so u have to listen to it several times to follow/catch up to the flow unlike Savage which is quite consistent esp in the pre chorus. Nevertheless I love these 2 songs soooo muuuch and i must say experimental music has been growing on me. I fell in love w Savage right away after the first listen coz the instrumental esp the heavy bass is my vibe

    This song had elevated aespa as South Korea's digital powerhouse. It's amazing that the song about 'Kwangya' and 'virtual reality world' end up topping the local music charts. Most of the knetz said that aespa bring back the joy and fun in KPOP just like back then when 1st and 2nd gen KPOP groups were still dominating. Well I mean KPOP songs back then were quite hype and hardcore.

    Despite the clear separation of the song's "sections", all of the sections themselves are so satisfying in isolation, which I think is the reason why this song works so well. The analysis from the reactors was spot-on! Once they get around to Savage, though, it will be pure chaos.

When I first heard it, I also thought it was too repetitive, and then the sections kept changing, and then I had huge respect for what they were doing but was like "hmm interesting." But soon enough the song and the dance were living in my head rent free and I could not stoppp listening to it

And suddenly, I CRAVEDDD for that key change part every single time I listen to it (Ningning and Winter parts where we thought bridge happen AND that beat drop ✨) IDEK how to explain it, I know it’s a remake but SM made it more poppy that suits aespa ? IDK but I’m still loving it. And now with Savage mini alhum released, they’re putting themselves a solid place in the industry - not just another 4th gen group 🧚🏻‍♀️

    The original song is the famous "Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw" OST, but they arranged the song well in their colors. SM always finds songs that go well with their singers. Some of the songs are not made by them, but they are arranged nicely to suit the color of their singers. It's a musically interesting company.

    That one group section was really kept me sticking to the song and then the first section did a comeback like an anticlimax but then if it didn't it would just really feel like they roughly patched different songs together. I think it made listeners grounded and still familiar with the song. Something like oh I can't get enough of that crazy bridge let me listen to the whole song again ㄷ

    I absolutely disliked the song on first listen tbh. I inactively listened to each section in isolation on different times I kinda appreciated them separately as they reminded me the style of songs I liked before and after the next full re-listen i absolutely adored the transitions which made me love the song completely.. I don't care for the SM lore or lyrics but the song is so weirdly structured and yet somehow made me like it.. Especially when I prefer EDM and the repetition, this was refreshing to listen to. Can't wait for the crew to react to their new single "Savage". Gonna have to wait soo long tho :/ Thanks for this reaction, i actually learned and noticed a few more things.
