Back in November (2017), I introduced you to South Korean girl group Laboum, Between Us is not only the groups first comeback in just under a year and a half but it's also their first comeback as a 5-piece group after their youngest member Yulhee, left the group and the groups company and became a mummy (my first K-pop baby). Between Us is the groups 5th Single Album.
On the 9th of July 2018, a teaser image was released announcing their comeback.

I love that even though Laboum come from a smaller company, their album concepts and layouts are just stunning. They always have such pretty albums and pictures. I love everything about this album, from the colours, to the styling, to the music. Even though we only get two tracks, they are completely different, continuing to show how versatile Laboum is when it comes the style of music they do. I can't help but wonder if they would have still made a comeback with 체온(Between Us) if Yulhee was still part of Laboum, it would have been nice to see the six of them show off a more mature concept and sound. I think I have to say that 체온 (Between Us) is my favourite song from Laboum, I love the melody as well as the vocals. Both Love Game and 체온 (Between Us) are memorable tracks for me and I often find myself humming them to myself even when I'm not listening to them. I can't wait to see what they comeback with on their next comeback and I hope their fanbase continues to grow, so that they can get the recognition they deserve.

Laboum are about to make their Japanese debut with their track Hwi Hwi, I think it's nice that they kept Yulhee's vocals on the song and that she allowed them to do so, personally for me I think if they had removed her vocals it would have seemed like they were forgetting that she was ever a member.
Do you think this comeback would have suited Yulhee?
Is it your favourite Laboum title track?
Let me know in the comments below.
See you soon!
