I heard their song once, I thought it was decent but nothing that hooked me in. Just a simple, easy to listen song. I guess it has a soothing feeling to people. Anyway, why are they creating a lot of buzz despite people saying Big 3 make the best music
Can someone explain the Fifty Fifty hype to me

Tbh me too i listen to the song thinking that the song might be really really good considering how much praise it's getting and the how well it's doing internationally
But the song left me indifferentw it wasn't bad but it's not a song that i'll praise or listen again

cupid is awesome. The best kpop song released this year
-
People on tiktok like cupid twin ver (sped up) and they find the english lyrics relatable
-
there’s certain kind of vocal that’s easily popular in tiktok in this song because when i first heard the korean ones i can’t help thinking “this gonna blow up on kpop tiktok”
-
That is because Cupid has never treated you bad before.

Because cupid is amazing, a really good song and it's catchy, easy to listen to, plus the girls have good vocals and are talented.

I think people unfairly deride simple or basic "pop or love song" making, undervalue the appeal of simplicity and traditional song making, and I think, especially, wholly misunderstand the elemental power of these types of songs, especially those that lean youthful or uncynical.
They are often derided as effervescent "silly love songs" or "generic" presumably because these types of songs do not often attempt to dress up their structure or sound with the obfuscating pretention of "artistry" or "maturity" or "complexity", ideas that many associate closely with music holding greater or "true value". I think this is a misguided conclusion.
Simple youthful love songs are often the most elementally powerful as they deal in earnest youthful subjects in a way that evokes the feeling and idealism of one's youth, a time when most can intimately connect with how they felt, the feelings they had, the emotion they associate with an often much simpler and idealistic time in one's life.
The simplicity and accessible nature of youthful pop song structure and sound can allow a much closer connection to that emotional wellspring, and I think gives such fare tremendous value to many.
That they aren't complicated or transgressive, and uncynical strive for a more accessible approach, is their greatest strength in my view.
For me personally, FIFTY FIFTY's Cupid, while perhaps not a straight love song, is in that realm of the trials and tribulations of youthful love. It is moving to me and I find it to be a wonderful song.

It is really a great song, so far all these nugu gg are releasing alot of bop compared to big 3 lol..

several reasons:
- it's suited for tiktok- it's easy listening
- people love the lyrics in the english version
- people love Aran's/Sio's vocal tone
I think, the most biggest reason is tiktok, like the case of Darari and Polaroid Love

I don't have a tiktok app/account
but from what I've seen on instagram, well there are girls which for example film shorts/reels when they are preparing outfit to school and they are using Cupid as the song
or they are acting some scenes with besties like walking through the city, drinking coffee, looking at boys, and bang Cupid is playing
seems like people are just vibin to it, especially younger ones

Cupid is a fun citypop/disco song and thus it's a vibe song with interesting crossover appeal. Plus the lyrics are super relatable especially in the english version.
