K-Pop Opinionated

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog!

Today I'm going to be talking about the songs I've reviewed in the month of August, and whether or not my opinion on them has changed. So, without further ado, let's get into it.


Jessi's Nunu Nana

First of all, Nunu Nana by Jessi.

So, when I wrote my review of this song, I gave it an 8 / 10.

Right now, I don't think my opinion has changed. I still listen to this song really often and it's probably one of my favourite releases of August 2020.

My favourite aspect of this release has got to be the song itself because although I do like the choreography and the music video, I find myself just listening to the song itself on repeat.

So, overall, I still love this song.

(G)I-DLE's Dumdi Dumdi

Next up, Dumdi Dumdi by (G)I-DLE.

So, you might be confused about reading this, since I haven't actually released my review of this song, despite having written since forever. I guess I couldn't find the right time. However, make sure to stay tuned for my full review.

So, when I wrote my review of this song, I gave it a 7/10.

I did like the song and the music video, but I hated the choreography. With a passion.

Now, when I look back on my review, I don't honestly know why I disliked the choreography. Because nowadays, I find myself watching performance videos a lot.

Now, my favourite aspect of this release might (?) be the choreography/performance of this song, because I prefer to watch the performance rather than listen to the song on its own.

So, my opinion on this release has changed a bit, but I don't think my overall rating of this song has changed too much. But, I think I will bump up my rating to a 7.5/10.


TREASURE's Boy

Next up, TREASURE's Boy.

When I wrote my review of this song, I gave this song a 7/10.

I'm pretty happy with my rating of this song. I do believe that this is a good song, but I don't love the song as much as I do others. I don't find myself listening to this song a lot now.

My favourite aspect of this song is probably the choreography. I think I enjoyed the choreography the most out of this release.

So, if I had to rate this song now, based on what I think of it, I think I'd give it a 6.5/10.

ITZY's Not Shy

Now for Not Shy by ITZY.

When I wrote my review for this song, I gave it a 7-8/10. Let's just say 7.5/10.

I still really enjoy listening to this song, I still listen to it really often in fact. It might actually go along with Jessi's Nunu Nana for my favourite songs of August 2020.

My favourite aspect of this release would probably be the performance/choreography. This was a hard decision because this is one of my favourite August comebacks, but I think I find myself watching the choreography of this song a lot.

So, if I were to change my rating of this song, I'd give it an 8/10.

BTS's Dynamite

Finally, BTS's Dynamite.

When I reviewed this song, I gave it a 7/10. I think that I am pretty happy with my rating of this song.

This song, compared to others, I don't find myself listening to it very often, but I did really enjoy this song. Yes, there were parts of this song that I didn't like, but I don't think they were enough to make me change my overall rating of this song.

So, my rating of this song remains a 7/10.

Jessi Nunu Nana Concept
Jessi Nunu Nana Concept

After a few months of waiting, Jessi has finally released a new album, with the title track being the song 'Nunu Nana'. But what did I think of this song? Let's find out.

But first, if you enjoy my content, make sure to either subscribe to my blog using email or sign up for notifications, so that you can get notified whenever I post a new video. Also, if you want the video for any of my post, then make sure to stay tuned on my channel 'YeonJunie' for all of my uploads.


Okay, now without further ado, let's get into the review.



    THE SONG

    So, first of all, what did I think of the song? Well, I started 'stanning' Jessi and really got into her music during the 'Who Dat B' era, and I can certainly say that Nunu Nana is very different. Who Dat B is very rap heavy but Nunu Nana includes singing and rapping, which is good, considering how Jessi is great at both.

    Nunu Nana starts off slow, with Jessi singing, and then it hits us with a beat drop, the chorus. I think the chorus is one of my favourite parts of the song because it's honestly so catchy, and the choreography that goes with it is iconic (but I'll get into that later.). But honestly, I've had the '그래서 난 눈누난나' stuck in my head since this song came out. I think it's a great start to the chorus.

    After the first chorus, it goes into the first verse, which is an upbeat and vocal verse, and then into the pre-chorus. The pre-chorus is also one of my favourite parts. I think I like it so much because of how catchy it is, and I love Jessi's vocals in that part. Also, it has the iconic 'FU' at the end, which is always fun.

    Afterwards, is the rap part. This part is also one of my favourites (I have a lot of favourite parts in this song if you couldn't already tell.) I first heard about Jessi through Unpretty Rap Star, and after looking into a few of Jessi's raps, I already knew that this one wouldn't disappoint. And low and behold, I wasn't wrong.

    Now, I won't go into the lyrics of the rap too much, but the lyrics really show us Jessi's confident and almost carefree attitude, and I love it. However, my favourite line would have to be 'Wake Up, Blessed. Looking, Fresh'. That line to me is iconic.

    After the rap, is the bridge, which is the same as the beginning of the song, and then the final chorus. I really like the final chorus in particular because of Jessi's adlibs. I really like Jessi's adlibs and her vocals, as they make the song more exciting and interesting to listen to.

    So, overall, I really like this song, I think that it was worth the wait, and I will definitely be listening to it again.


    THE CHOREOGRAPHY / PERFORMANCE

    Now, for the choreography and performance for this song.

    So, first of all, what did I think of the choreography for this song? Well, something I had to keep in mind whilst watching the dance practice was that Jessi is not the most confident in her dancing, (although I think that there's nothing wrong with her dancing and she slays regardless.) so Jessi isn't doing choreography for some parts of the song.

    However, my thoughts on the choreography are that there are definitely some parts of the choreography that are more memorable and upbeat than the others, but overall it's still fun to watch. For example, by far the most memorable part of this choreography is the chorus. It's been all over Tik Tok with different celebrities and idols and Korea, and to be honest, I've been doing the dance all around my house, 24/7. It's a simple move, but it's very memorable.

    Apart from the chorus, one of my favourite parts of this choreography has got to be the choreography for the rap part. That part of the choreography is POWERFUL and it's one of my favourite parts to watch. Something that made it even better though, is the way that Jessi's dancers executed it.

    Speaking of the way Jessi's dancers executed the dance, let's talk about the performance. So, to be honest, I really like watching Jessi's performances because they're very engaging.

    Something that you'll notice in a lot of Jessi's performances is that the stage presence is really good. Jessi gives her all during performances and her dancers give their all as well. Another thing is that her dancers are all so talented, so that makes the performances even better. Also, it always looks like Jessi is enjoying herself while she's performing, so that makes the performances fun to watch as well.

    So, overall, I do like the choreography for this song, and I have my favourite parts of the choreo, but I think what really makes the performances worth watching is the stage presence of Jessi and her dancers.


    THE MUSIC VIDEO


    Now for the music video, but first, if you haven't watched it yet, be sure to watch it above. So, what did I think of the music video? Well, I really like it.

    There are some parts of the music video that have a sort of 'bright' and 'summery' theme to them and others don't. I also love how unapologetically herself Jessi is in her music videos. So, with that being said, here are my favourite parts of this music video.

    Number One — This Outfit

    So, recently, in music video reviews, I can't help but talk about my favourite outfits. I do it so often that it might just become a regular part of my reviews.

    But anyways, my favourite from this music video is the one above. I love this one because, first of all, the two-piece is just so aesthetically pleasing, and secondly, the outfit just suits Jessi. Basically, I think that Jessi really pulled off this outfit and I really like it.

    Number Two - Lee Hyori's Appearance

    My second and final favourite part of this music video is the fact that Lee Hyori appeared in it. So, I believe that Jessi and Lee Hyori are friends, and I recently read that despite Hyori having a difficult schedule, she still managed to be in Jessi's music video, which I think is really kind.

    I also like that in the music video, Jessi and Hyori were able to do the Tik Tok dance challenge together.

    Because of this, I just felt like I had to include the fact that Hyori was in the music video.

    So, overall, my thoughts on the music video are that I really like it, I loved the outfits and sets and I loved the fact the Jessi invited Hyori to be in it too.


    OVERALL RATING

    Now for my overall rating. So, if you made it this far you can tell that I really liked this comeback and that I really enjoyed the song, the performances, etc. So, keeping this in mind, I'll give this song an 8/10, tell me what you guys think in the comments.

    So, that brings me to the end of my review, I hope you guys enjoyed it. And with that being said,

    Stay safe,

    Ciao xx
