In this series we remember songs that have been forgotten or were never even given the attention they deserved. Today's Hidden Gem is U Lie by Holics
These girls kinda got some hate for this debut and I don't think it's that bad. The mixing could have been better, the video is cheap, but I think the chorus is super catchy. Some of the girls have strong vocals and some do not. I think if they trained them a little more and mixed the song better it could have been a really strong title track.
Surprisingly Holics lasted kinda a long time. You would have thought they'd be done after debut but they made a few more comebacks. The only time this group made headlines was when one of the members, Yeonjung, won a gold medal at ISAC and they didn't highlight it at all and didn't interview her. I swear it's always something going on at ISAC. Only Yoonju left the team while they released music after a quartet comeback, they added a fifth member again. Then the hiatus began and I think the company was going to do a re-brand as a 7 member group after Yurim and Yoonju's replacement left. However that lineup never released music. 3 members stuck with the group till the end though and Holics didn't disband officially until 2022. I don't relaly know what they're doing now.
