Yena Has Entered the Melon Top 100

Noise marketing is the best marketing. Congrats.

If this goes viral, what are the chances of Yena standing tall by herself against the wave of NJ next week?

Is this good by Yena standards? I’m told she’s important but haven’t done a deep dive on her success

serious q for her fans: is there some specific reason she went with "Hate" and not, say, "Envy?"

Most likely because that "hate" is actually coming from the word "shiro" which semantically leaning more into just "dislike"/"don't like it". It might felt weird because for us, "hate" is a strong word isn't it?

You might even heard that word thrown around whenever kpop idols, comedians or anyone in a content told to do/have something they don't like or when they talking about things that they don't like.
