It sounds like the song writers came up with one good hook, the "aye got better things to do with my time" part and then didn't know what to do with the rest of the song, so they just repeated that part a lot and filled the rest with filler.
Also like every Eng release by a kpop group, some of the lyrics are stilted and awkward to a native speaker (me). However the song isn't all that bad, I was expecting 2017 tropical house EDM chorus and this was--thank God--not that.
I've been to many Casinos since before I was gambling age because here in the U.S. many Casinos double as venues for concerts or comedy shows. Having been to many before I must say I have no desire to go to them for gambling or drinking even when I'm of age because they all reek of cigarettes (one of the few places in U.S. indoor smoking is still allowed), have gaudy eyesore decor, and the patrons drooling infront of the slot machines just appear sad and desperate for money and entertainment.
Older acts that have had time to sink into the cultural conscience and accrue some nostalgia will always appear more iconic than contemporary acts because things usually don't seem iconic while they're happening, but in retrospect.
Interesting...."Fast Forward" is a house/edm song that you'd hear in a club, not your typical kpop song. Not a genre I expected Somi of all artists to pivot to. I feel like it will take some time to decide if I like it or not.
Not really a fan of this 2017 kpop tropical beat (when any group does it but especially Aespa who it doesn't seem to suit, but it's just a snippet so maybe the full song will surprise me)
Having the word "capitalism" in a kpop song title is so meta it's funny and kinda weird 
but I'm rooting for the triple s girlies so I'll stay hopeful for their comeback
The difference in amount of songs from 2018 vs 2019 just cements that 2018 really was that great of a year for kpop that kpop stans always say it was.
I'll always root for the members' individual activities but nothing will beat them as 6 
The production value and hype behind BP's first coachella outing can't be compared or replicated.
It's strange that YG confirms dating news this time when they have been famous for their line "since it's the artist's private life we cannot confirm blah blah". I wonder why they confirm it right away this time?
Anyways I've never heard of Ahn Bohyun before but he look cute.
Kpop fans always hype up their bias with whatever buzzword happens to plague the stan community lexicon atm "all rounder" "ace" "it girl/boy" it's all variations of the same nonsense. Nothing new.
And they would be 100% correct. The only reason ITZY has been able to maintain some public interest and hope for their future releases is because of the promise and esteem the title of "JYP Girl Group" has with the public.
This is just pearl clutching. Western Artist constantly have Hot 100 singles talking about sex, wet pussy, cheating etc. Sex is a normal part of life. God forbid a young adult mention it, especially when this is the time of their life where they will probably have the most sex.
If you wanna make the argument that The Boyz may have minor age fans and maybe they should be more mindful of what they say, then im down to have that conversation. BUUUTTT This idea that idol can't even mention sex. Just helps continue a culture where Idols have to walk on egg shells and be fake because they are too scared about fandom reaction. This eventually turns into what's happening with Jungkook where Seven is getting called "Raunchy" or "dirty" by south korean fans just because it had the audacity to mention sex. A 25-year-old man is getting criticized for a song that would be considered mild in the western market its intended for.
You point out that western artists have more explicit sex talk as some sort of gotcha, but if I never said that I support that. I find it tacky and cringe when western popstars/rappers talk about f*cking hoes or having a wet *ss p*ssy and I don't chose to listen or fund that kind of music.
I'm no prude and I acknowledge that sex and nudity has it's place in art when it's well done and actually serves a creative purpose, but jokes and cheeky comments about bl*wjobs and sex acts does not fall into that category. I never said I think these men should be censored or shamed for talking about sex, just that I find it tacky and unintelligent to joke about publicly.
JYP has been creatively stagnant for years and TWICE renewing and continuing on past their prime will just reinforce this fact. But from the 9 members perspective, they have a pretty good thing going on, they get to release a mediocre song a couple times a year, but whatever, they already had their glory days of exciting comebacks topping the charts + they get to tour and interact with their loyal fanbase. Unless you have a strong passion to grow as an artist, staying in the group is a very comfortable prospect
It's only been a few months since release, if the song really has staying power a wave of retroactive praise will come once people have had time to move on.
For me tho the title of most underrated Aespa title goes to Girls. I'm the blacksheep who actually liked it upon release and still will defend it now.
Excited that the girls are back but it's giving Pirate. Nothing new or innovative but I wont jump the gun now and wait for the MV to make my final judgement. YueHua K-branch needs someone new to come in a breathe some fresh air if they really want to establish themselves in K-pop.
It's an obvious flop but nothing to mourn as ITZY's creative direction has been dead, 6ft under, piled with dirt since Mafia in the Morning and the people just now bemoaning their career trajectory have been in denial since then
