They have 4 songs and the 3 are title tracks (cookie, hype boy, attention). New jeans songs are hits in Korea especially the attention and hype boy, its take over the top chart. I still new in new jeans but I heard they're really the rookie monster there

I think the reason why I love newjeans so much is they taught me to enjoy the vocals and vibes of a song rather then focusing on beat changes and high notes. Like their voices are just angelic to the ear especially Danielle and hanni

the most ”negative” korean comments i saw was saying it was a bit nonsensical like fx’s RPPP but other than that it was just cute, it seems to me like people are trying really hard to paint a perverse aura around them to keep people from stanning them out of fear of being called creeps all because they saw them as competition to their faves which ironically hurts the girls further by forcing this creep association to their image when it was nowhere to be found in their concept and aesthetics

The ‘Attention’ song going no.1 in Korea proves that sometimes less is more.

All the instrumentals sounds so fresh! We need more of this it feels like a new wave in kpop

The korean public is in LOVE with them. Like in L O V E with them and their songs are fighting each other for the number one spot. They just bust the doors off the hinges and strutted inside lmao

Absolutely obsessed with these girls and this amazing debut they've had!!!! Cookie is my fav too despite the controversy!

south korea is eating it up, attention is number 1 on all online streaming platforms of sk. they are loved. 2 of their song. hypeboy at #2 and attention at #1

they are actually doing great in korea. they been charting for days. also a lot of kpop idols are actually obsessed with their songs.

Looking at the credits for the music/LYRICS, Ylva Dimberg , a Swedish producer. So the English lyrics are likely not mistranslations but the original lyrics from the demo. Like if you compare the lyrics from the English and Korean versions of NCT 127’s Highway to Heaven. The Korean version was def more innocent

they're supposedly describing their own content with "cookie" bc in korea "cookie" is the word they use for like extra scenes at the end of movie and such... if you think of the cookie they're describing as their music/videos/etc, then the metaphor does work... that being said - the metaphors fit wayyyy easier with *that kind* of cookie... so honestly i'm not convinced that absolutely no one in the entirety of ador and hybe had any clue whatsoever that this song could easily be interpreted as seggsual. maybe it's one of those situations where they want the song to appeal to the masses (which is undeniably obsessed w seggsual innuendo) but also want a passable excuse to fall back on if anyone pointed fingers

There was a day blip when bp dropped but they took it back and a cpl charts Ive has taken the #1 song but again.....theyre either 1,2, or 3 on all 4 charts A MONTH IN. It's kinda crazy given how relaxed and not aggressive their marketing and intro was.

Since new jeans is breaking and settling records since they debute

their songs remind me so much of red velvet when they dropped automatic, cool hot sweet love, etc., especially their harmonies! very red velvet-like! it’s so lovely to see it in younger groups too!

Been waiting for this!!

your reaction to black people in the attention mv was so me vibes 💀 i love the direction they've gone with their musical style, they're about to change the status quo for the 4th gen - loud and flashy won't be enough to distract us from lack of actual vocal talent anymore 👀 and the gworls are still young but you can tell they will be able to SANG in a few years

it just goes to show rnb is such a dominating genre globally

Attention isn't my favorite, but Cookie and Hype Boy are fun songs. I don't like the lyrics for cookie being given to such young girls, but my issues aside they're very talented girls

Agreed I used sing it wasn't me by Shaggy at the top of my lungs as a kid without realizing what it meant.

I dont know if someone mentioned it, but there are different versions of the hype boy music video that go with different members. One of the main love interests in one of the videos is black

Let me expand on the question of their producer. Her name is Min Hee Jin, a maverick artist in her own right. She was the creative "brand" consultant for several groups, burned out, and didn't come back until she was given total creative control to create a new group. Even the idea of dropping "Attention" cold without any teasers or hype was her idea. Nobody in K entertainment knows exactly what to make of her, but following her instincts has resulted in the biggest debut since Blackpink. Nothing shuts up the critics like success...

Their song have 90" pop vibe.... Really fresh between kpop idol group.... & their song more focus their vocal with minimum backsound effect....

Like not to make it sound bad but I love the b side feeling of all these songs typically groups are way more creative with b sides and are safe with title tracks does that make sense???

Hype boy is my jam

I love Attention. Honestly, I'll be working and all of a sudden I will start singing the chorus. It is so catchy and definitely has a 2000's feel about it. Hybe Boy is good as well it's also catchy. There are multiple videos and has different storylines for the girl's. Nothing too complicated but I do think it's cute showing infatuation and how someone can make you feel. Lyrics are average but it is still a catchy song. Hurt shows off their vocals the most and again this song will pop into my head because I think I can sing and end up scaring my dogs while trying to sing. Now for Cookie... I've been reading a lot of comments and it looks like the English translation makes the song sound suggestive than it actually is. Which is very unfortunate because Cookie, again, is a catchy song. Now with this translation that we do have if...Sistar was still around I would love this song. If it was mamamoo-afied I would also love it. Grown and sexy women talking about grown and sexy things. But due to the translation or misinterpretation of the lyrics it seems like a very suggestive song for very young girls. And I'm trying to be nobody's big sister or nobody's auntie but damn: I'm just like why did this happen? How did no one realize this would happen? I understand dufferent cultures and how nicknamed for things are different or unknown but dammit why??? Unfortunately, Cookie is a catchy song but I just feel weird when listening to it so I usually skip it. With all of that out of the way, I really do enjoy their music and that they already have a style which is definitely different from the other 4th Gen. group's. As far as the taking the 2000 inspiration not just with the style but also with their music. At least to me.

New jeans is loved by Korea public

It’s crazy because NewJeans already made a video explaining what cookie means but some people thought of it as inappropriate and it wasn’t, I can see why it seems that way but for me it shouldn’t be taken as inappropriate it’s a stretch.

How Koreans react? All 3 title songs have swept charts, sans a late-updated KZread chart, stops BP from sweeping, and now holding back IVE from doing so too. They love the new, the differences, standing out vs. the CRUSHY vibes. I am old, I recognize an all-timer when I see one.

These girls' sound takes me back to mid 90's r&b girl group feels... Give me some SWV and Xscape!

You mentioned that kids have always sung along with dodgy lyrics, and referenced Rude boy by Rihanna as an example. I totally agree with you that this has always happened, and will probably always happen, and it doesn't really matter that much since they don't really understand what the lyrics mean anyway. The problem I have with Cookie, is that the artists themselves are at the age where they shouldn't be singing those kinds of lyrics. And when the label makes them sing these kinds of lyrics, they are intending for older people to understand the lyrics, and in that way market them in a sexual manner, which is fckd up since the youngest I think is 14. In your example, the artist is an adult. We can't really stop kids from listening to songs with sexual innuendos, and singing along, but we can and should stop kids sing those kinds of songs as their career. Anyways, their songs are bangers, and I have added the other three to my playlist. Even though Cookie also sounds good, I don't feel like supportting that kind of song for such a young group. I hope others will do the same.

AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE HAIR???? IT’S SO HEALTHY TO LOOK AT I’LL NEVER FORGIVE HYBE IF THEY TRYNA RUIN IT I SWEAR 👹👹👹

Maybe I’m going to deep in this but…. TLC is clearly a reference isn’t it? So good they are making me review 90’s Queens

I think what most people like about them s bcoz their song s easy to listen like its not complicated n its different for some of the girlgroup song release like f u listen to other girlgroup song they almost have thesame visual same tempo same beat,this one came out of this world they didnt have proper release but they catch the attention of many.

Korean said they cookie lyric is actually very innocent. because baking cookie means making cd. but then in west they have this innuendo of cookie means something else. so I guess the cookie controversy just happens on west listener. because no controversy happen in Korea, and Korea is a very conservative country. ofcourse if Korea see the same thing like west listener , they would cancel it. but not at all

rookies of the year. period.

Man I LOVE attention 😭😭😭😫😫😫

It's so funny how you think they all look similar, it was actually their CEO's intention to do that so people will have to watch the Video more to differentiate the members.

Love them… cookie is a little suggestive for a 14 year old.. but it’s an English slang so maybe there’s no intention.

In regards to the Cookie lyrics....as someone who is bilingual. Yes, in korean the lyrics are much more innocent however, HYBE/Ador is a multibillion dollar company, they knew what the reaction would be from the international English speaking crowd.
