Wonder Girls were expected to have a hard time regaining their former strength after losing Sohee, who was popular and had a mood-maker vibe.
The last time they made a comeback and became popular, they brought their instruments and practiced hard, so the impression I got was that their old fans gave them a little congratulatory gift.
Just when I thought that was the end, they made another comeback.
They're really working hard.
I went to YouTube to watch "Why So Lonely" to see what the M/V was like.
It leaves a good aftertaste as it casually sings about a woman's "melancholy and lonely mood." It seems to be well-received.
It has been viewed over 6 million times since it was uploaded about 10 days ago. There are certainly some parts that make you want to watch it again and again.
However, while the MV is good, the dance version stage was a bit lacking. The weakness of being divided into instruments and dance is clearly visible.
No one is looking for such skill in instrumental playing, so it's fine if it's just cuteness.
It's a bit of a disappointing dance performance considering they created an era as Wonder Girls.
Young girl groups are debuting one after another, and are livening up the music stage with powerful performances.
In that environment, fans who are used to seeing stages like this will likely turn their eyes away.
Maybe they couldn't dance well because they sang live?
If that's the case, fans might be happier if they sang live while playing instruments and lip-synced for the dance version, but still danced well.
I give the MV an 80. I haven't seen the instrumental version yet. From what I can see in the MV, the four-person lineup is just right. I'd give the dance version a 60, including the quality of the choreography. But what on earth was I, a complete amateur just giving random marks to the music of a professional singer, doing for two hours?
