ILLIT "Cherish (my love) " : bop vs flop

The song is good but could have done without the whole teeth theme

The song was nice. I am just confused about the teeth.

bop

It's not as catchy as magnetic, but I still like it. Minju's part during the beginning was my fav.

For the people who are confused about the teeth part:

i like it

I cannot believe they dropped their OG concept, I adored it.

hmm

song wise 6/10

MV wise 8/10

song is nice and does have the catchy vibe but the bridge is far too basic and the whole song doesn't go anywhere, there's no excitement, a bit too safe

and the ending is kinda let down, needed something more.

MV looks great, concept wise also nice but just nice.

its a bop, nothing groundbreaking but a very nice song. I don't really understand the MV though.

Bop/Blop

It's ok nothing special about this song

I mean, the MV concept could be groundbreaking. It's wholesomely weird.

It's a bop. It's not groundbreaking I agree, but it has that well-known warm feeling and pink tinted glasses of first love. It has the feel-good vibes. It's signature repetition gives it identity and I guees with this teeth thing the uniqueness can't be questioned. They almost made me believe that the dentist isn't that scary. Almost.

Vocally it's not over the top but it has moments where the girls could safely shine in a live. Smart.

Not bad but not catchy or interesting, just okay.

i heard this at the start

bop

hm..

Blop

Might grow on me though

But that mv reminded me to book my dentist appointment

The girls look lovely and so is the song. A sweet bop.

I also like it - it’s a cute bop and the girls sound good. I get the theme but also not a fan of dentists lol

Really soft, not bad

I gave it a listen and it's alright

The track is extremely boring and bland, it should have been released last year, when NewJeans and FiftyFifty were setting the tone, but now it is released at the end of the year, a strange decision, such a sound is not in trend. As a result, Illit could not find their sound, now they will look for it in the hits of past years. 3/5

The green contacts... damn girl we see them...

The song itself is a bop. Cute, relaxing, refreshing! But the music video concept was really odd and I didn't care for it.

Just quite OK with casual listening type but it cannot beat or matched the Magnetic song.. This maybe the true ILLIT music style which sound like past pop style music not kpop style. The melody is soft compare to Magnetic with sharp style.. The "cherish my love" chorus sound so common but cannot remembers it came from..

this is the worst mv i've ever seen oh my god.

it's so weird and gross i will never watch this mv again. i don't even know what the song sounded like cause of it.

who does a teeth concept??? is it cause all the illit girls have fake teeth? i don't get it.

ok i get that koreans compare love to wisdom teeth, but that doesn't mean they have to put teeth and dentists everywhere in the mv. very weird. gave me weird dentist dream feeling. not ok

More independent than their debut, I like it a lot. ILLIT have developed very well.

No. 2 behind Aespa this week but No. 1 Rookie 2024 ahead of TWS and NCT Wish.

Sounds like a nugu song, something viviz would release

IYKYK was much better.

This doesn't have any of the addictive qualities or immediate impact I got from Magnetic, and for me, it's not a strong follow up to their hit debut song.

It's not a BAD song, but this is not something I'll have on repeat.

I decided it was a blop. It's not bad, but it seemed simple to me, not in a very new and different vibe. You will come across this style and its better versions in the 2nd generation.

So bland and basic lol. The song itself is generic as hell. Y'all said it sounded like 2nd gen/early 3rd gen gg but at least they had the vocals and charisma to pull it off eg A pink, GFriend, oh my girl. But this is just.... no redeeming quality at all. Not the song, the vocals, the girls themselves, nothing. I haven't seen the performance, but unless they do crazy backflips in their dance, nothing will save this snoozefest.

Flop! I don’t like cute songs! And it is too boring and too childish for my taste
