Missed MV's Catch Up! | (G)I-DLE - Senorita, Yena - Love War, and Oh My Girl - Banana Allergy Monkey

Comments

You just yapped at me about Hate Rodrigo after light prompting. That's my point. It gets discussed and Love War goes unknown. I won't speculate on how Yena feels or what she wants, but the results she gets from cute concept vs mature concept is clear. Whether she wants to keep the tension up and be cute all the time, that's what's expected from her.

They caught some flak for that at the time. Parent's complained it seemed they were ridiculing people who suffer from allergies.

Yena cultivated that image for herself for years on variety shows. Don't be surprised.

Hate Rodrigo was a mistake, one that Yena and her company quickly admitted by terminating all promotion for the song. It was a poor title for song. And an absolute marketing failure. I love Yena, I support her at music shows, I loved her in Iz*one and she makes outstanding music but that was a bad call of a track. It's not people 'yappin' it was a disaster. Yena is not pigeonholed into be being cute and bubbly, she embraces it. She has since she started appearing regularly on variety shows as fixed cast, way back in 2019.

Yes Everyone should stan Oh My Girl. Any group that can take a silly song about a monkey being allergic to bananas and make it a catch fun bop, deserves to be stanned. Thank you for sharing this reaction.

People yap about Hate Rodrigo 'flopping', but at least they talk about it. Most people don't even know Love War exists, and that's actually criminal. Yena 100% gets pigeonholed into being cute and bubbly, which she seems to take in stride, but it still sucks.

I’m so happy you finally got to experience Banana Allergy Monkey. Truly a work of art.

Tbh im kind of surprise that Yena does a 'cute bright' concept because i expected a more girl crush type songs bc it suits her so well! Probably they wanna recreate Smiley's success.

Ohh the goat Banana Allergy Monkey finally makes its appearance! Some TMIs: - There was a glitch in the Hanteo charts once, which resulted in them showing the album sold 2.793.065.220 albums - making Banana Allergy Monkey the most sold album in human history. (It's so funny how it was this specific song) - Some Twice members wore the Banana Allergy Monkey merch as airport fashion

I came for the (G)I-DLE reaction, but I’m glad I stayed for the other two MVs. It was my first time hearing Yena's 'Love War' too, and my jaw dropped at the same time as both of yours did! 😂 Her voice in that song gave me goosebumps! I think I just fell in love with Yena 🙈

I was just thinking about your missed MVs catch up yesterday and got excited for when u will finally do that and now here it is

OMG finally yo i've been waiting months for love war

The dance move in Banana Allergy Monkey is them scratching themselves because of the allergic reaction rashes haha

Zzenitsu

I'm not a big (G)I-DLE fan but I know all of their songs. Despite what everyone else thinks, Senorita is still my favorite (G)I-DLE song to this day. Oh My Girl has some of the best children songs in all of K-Pop & I love silly korean children's songs. 😁 If you really like this one, you should check out the Baby Shark one, Bara Bam & Boggle Boggle. I can provide the links, if necessary.

And the scratching dance represents the itching caused by the allergy lol.

Some TMIs about Banana Allergy Monkey: This album includes two B-sides. “It Is Said” is about the four members who aren’t allergic, and there’s also a fantastic solo song by Seunghee. There’s a meme among Miracles about why these three members were chosen for this song: Arin had to participate because she’s the maknae, Yubin because she lost at rock-paper-scissors, and Hyojung simply because she loves it. At their concert last year, the “allergic monkeys” and “non-allergic monkeys” switched to perform special stages, which was very funny. By the way, Oh My Girl has a new show called Oh My Way on their YouTube channel every Thursday, in case you want to watch!

It didn't do that badly.. Entered top 10 on charts, the album sold well. It just performed a bit worse than other songs and didn't get a win.

(G)I-DLE does not like Senorita because it did not do well during the promotions, but it is seriously one of my fav songs of theirs. idk I just like it for some reason. Also, I believe that this is like "the Soojin era" and I'm Soojin biased so... hehe
