Track List
퀸카 (Queencard)
Allergy
Lucid
All Night
Paradise
어린 어른 (Peter Pan)
I have the photo book version and I absolutely love the pictures within it. The photo book follows the styling from both the Allergy and 퀸카 (Queencard) M/V's. The pictures are stunning and with the pages being glossy it gives it such a high-end fashion feel to it.
The album itself is definitely my favourite album of theirs, each track is catchy and sounds completely different from the previous track.
I've been obsessed with 퀸카 (Queencard) since it was released. It's such a catchy song, I love everything about it, no matter how many times I listen to it, I always sing a dance along.
퀸카 (Queencard)
I've been in love with Allergy since the M/V was released. I'm sure there's more women and girls who have felt exactly like this track, myself included. I think the biggest task sometimes is to try and love yourself and who you see in the mirror.
Allergy
The more I listen to Lucid, the more I fall in love with it. I especially love Soyeon's soft rap it fits with the melody perfectly. I love how the melody changes up from the verses to the chorus. I think the melody fits the members voices perfectly.
Lucid
All Night is definitely my favourite b-side from this album. I've been in love with this song since the first listen. I love the beat, it's easy to sing along to and I think it really embodies all things (G)I-DLE. I've had this song on repeat way too much since it's release, and I don't think I'll ever get bored of it.
All Night
Paradise
You just know that 어린 어른 (Peter Pan) would be an amazing encore track on tour, so I'm gutted it wasn't part of the London setlist. I love how there is a mixture of vocals and raps. You just know this is a song they'd enjoy performing as it sounds such a fun song.
어린 어른 (Peter Pan)
I've had this album on repeat since it's release, and I'm still obsessed with it. It's definitely my favourite (G)I-DLE album right now, it's definitely one of my favourite albums of 2023.
I was lucky enough to see them play London on the 9th of September and from start to finish it was amazing, I've never been to a K-pop concert where the fans were nearly as loud as the performer singing along. The atmosphere for (G)I-DLE was definitely something else compared to what I've experienced before.
Being able to take and watch my daughter see her favourite Korean girl group really put it up there as one of my favourite concerts. I officially class myself as a Neverland now, being able to upgrade our tickets and go in early to see the soundcheck was definitely the cherry on the cake. I can only hope, they will return again to perform and hopefully next time they getter a bigger venue, they're clearly in demand in the UK.
I can't wait to see what they bring us with their next release, which seems to be an English album.
