My last WEi post was 4 years ago, so I thought it was time I'm brought them back.
I have the Gain A Love version. I love the layout and I love that the photobook uses the same colour palette as the album version, as it makes the members pop against the white background. I also love this versions photobook concept as it shows them as fighters.
The album itself is really good, there is a good mixture of songs, showcasing their voices and talents. It allows them to experiment, while keeping that WEi vibe and sound.
I absolutely love Moonlight. I love the melody and their voices sound stunning against it. I love how upbeat this song is, it gives off a bright vibe. It really shows that each member has stunning vocals.
Moonlight
I love the start to Spray, it really gives off a dark and grungy vibe. I love how the song progresses throughout the song. I love the vocals and the raps, each part of the song really stands out. Even with a darker vibe and sound, their vocals stand out, showing their versatility.
Spray
I love Higher Ground, it gives me SuperM vibes, as well as NCT 127. I love that it continues on the darker WEi vibes from the previous track. It really fits them perfectly, continuing to show how versatile they are as a group.
Higher Ground
Rose kind of gives me Latin/salsa vibes. I love the melody, it gives off a new vibe from WEi. I love how they play and experiment with their sound, as like with this song it shows off their versatility and how they can make any sound work for them. Aspects of this song also gives me Gain vibes.
Rose
I love Special Holiday. I love the melody, while it gives off Christmas vibes at times, it's a song that you can get away with listening to all year round. It definitely makes me feel upbeat, bright and festive.
Special Holiday
I think 우산 (Umbrella) is stunning song to close the album with, The melody is so pretty and their vocals are stunning and powerful against it. It really shows that they can do soft and slow songs and still shine.

Back in March it was announced that the group would be focusing on individual schedules while still continuing to promote under WEi. I personally think that we'll possibly get the odd digital single, especially on anniversaries or milestones, as Junseo is currently promoting with Alpha Drive One. As sad as it is, I believe when their contracts come up for renewal in the next year, they will announce the disbandment of WEi. Junseo is contracted to be with Alpha Drive One for 5 years and unable to take part in any future WEi projects, so this is why I'm predicting the groups disbandment. I think the individual schedules announcement is just to ride out their remaining contracts.
I'll be sad when that time comes as I've been a fan of theirs since early 2021 and I've always enjoyed their music, but I'm glad I got to be part of their fandom and their journey.
