I don't understand kpop fans and their need to have a constantly changing sound or concept lol. There's nothing wrong with consistency if it works for them. This is KARD's sound. Maybe they'll switch it up some day but for right now I think this sound works for them (it hasn't even been that long since they've debuted lmao y'all want them to go through a whole roster of different sounds all within a year?). And besides this comeback is still way different compared to Hola Hola.
Maybe not just listen their tittle track only for those who complaining. Listen the whole album, it's not just one concept. For me it doesn't matter if they already found their identity that bring them successful.
Ali Momo Also with CLC this happened too.When Hobgoblin came out everyone was like "They're copying 4minute!!!" "This is a rip of 4minute" "They try so hard to be cool" etc but when CLC made a comeback with "Where are you" -which was a bop- literally no one cared about it.I don't get fans. For me Where Are You was their best song after Pepe.It has a very unique and retro style.
That fierce makeup works so well on Somin. She's freaking gorgeous 😍 And BM daaaamnnn son looking extra hot today. And they are not lipsyncing, slaying with those golden vocals & raps 👏👏👏👏
I don't get why everyones salty about them being consistent 😂 they have a sound... That kard sound... As soon as you hear the start or the hook of any of their songs, even if you're not a fan, you can tell who's song it is. Thats what I think they're trying to accomplish incorporating the dance hall vibes and the similar choreo. They've created somewhat of an identification stamp. I think that's really cool. They're still fresh off the block too. They have time to change it up and I know theyll continue to bring more to the table. But for their second official post debut comeback, why fix what's not broken?
Natalie MacDonald Exactly and wouldn't doing the same exact concept changes that every other group does with every comeback actually make them less original. I mean you don't really see anybody commenting these type of things to Gfriend who have stuck to what their good at. Which in their case is very feminine concept.
Natalie MacDonald thats what i like about kard...its like they have their own genre n i love it...they have all the time to improve n explore on other genres in the future...
+Natalie MacDonald ... Exactly. KARD reminds me of DREAMCATCHER, they both debut the same year with a unique concept and hasn't changed it one bit ever since because it's their sound.
Somin's vocals stable AF after dancing that choreo and Jiwoo is slaying as always🙏🏽🙏🏽. Loving that the fan chants are louder than yesterday, KARD has a lot of girl fans~.
I don't understand some of you . Kard kept this tropical sound for international fans. They could've changed their genre for Koreans taste but they didn't. All fake stans can do is complain about everything. It's okay if you don't like the song or choreography but stop saying that the song is boring, ect. They worked really hard for this and for us, and this is what they receive? No positive comments only comments who are full of complaints
Hidden kard will never complaining about kard. True fans will never leave them behind and always support them. People already says so I cant say anything. I just going to say for those who keep complaining and leave kard because of this is FAKE FANS AKA FAKE STAN.
Somin is so hypnotizing in this, I’m obsessed with her. She is so talented and versatile that she has slayed every single song and concept. She seriously has such a captivating presence. So beautiful. 😍
For a Kpop group, they might have stuck to the same genre more than what is usually done. HOWEVER, I am proud that finally, apart from Gfriend, we have another group that has that audio identification. When the song plays, you know it’s Kard. And I’m glad how they executed their second mini album, all the songs are diverse and not all carries that tropical sound... but also sticks to a certain feel. It actually feels like an “album” and is telling a story. People, stop being stupid. When Taylor Swift switched up her concept, a lot of people were shook. Some even missed the “old Taylor”. To all real Hidden Kards, let’s just enjoy their songs and be excited for whatever is it they have in store for us.
When kard first debuted you could tell that somin was the most experienced one followed by BM. Jseph was a bit awkward but was still really good on stage. For jiwoo you could tell that she's the maknae since she always looked somewhat nervous and hesitant when performing. But for this comeback ALL FOUR of them have equally strong stage presence no one's is off when performing. Specially jiwoo she's so much relaxed and her stage presence and facial expressions are worth a 100%. So proud of them ❤
jiwoo my girl crush. her stage presence is no joke, her dance is like the laid back type but still strong and her face expression always the best. if kard continue to work hard like they always do, and idk maybe release another songs with different genre or concept, they will get many fans and BIG in korea and internationally :)
I personally think that Somin suits this kind of concept the best. Specially in the MV. You know, the touch of yandere and obsession. Her gaze is... wow...
I can't take my eyes from Jiwoo, and I'm a girl.. Her charisma and stage presence is no joke.. btw, I can't stop listening this song, it's keep playing in my head..
I guess I'm the only one who loves this song. I feel like this is one of their best song yet. It uses each one of the members potential. Somi haunting vocals in the beginning, Jiwoo power vocals in the chorus and BM/Jseph rap.
For everyone who is saying that they are not changing the “tropical” sound, here are a few things - 1) They debuted this year and this is their first comeback as an official group. They were supposed to be a project. So they have selected a style for their music. It makes their music unique. 2) They have a certain choreography style which is unlike what most K-pop groups perform. Their dances are more laidback, swayback,etc and its really cool to watch. 3) They are aware that they are not popular in Korea. They have to be popular in Korea to win Music shows and awards and because of certain prejudices towards co-ed groups, they are not getting the recognition they deserve. Therefore, let them experiment and find their sound and we as Hidden Kards can support and encourage them to do so. We are their backbone. And as for ‘You and Me’, the album is highly versatile and plays with different sounds. Listen to 지니까(my favourite on the album), or both the versions of Trust Me. These guys have outdone themselves this time. I support KARD! KARD Fighting!
Don't you guys feel the chills when they give such strong look when Somin sings "You are mine my everthing", It's just like the "attached concept" this time??
I don't know why people are hating on them for their choreo and sound, they can't change their sound drastically yet, they just debuted and it would be too huge of a risk. They have done so much, they went on a huge international tour before debut and after they debuted went back on tour, that shit has to be exhausted AF, then they came back and prepared a comeback, that's fucking great. Stop complaining, they are doing just fine, they will grow and get better with time. They have to do dance moves that compliment them and go together as a group, that's hard to do tbh, they will get better choreo, please support them and stop complaining so you will be able to see them progress.
Am i the only one who loves and appreciates the dance hall concept they have? It makes KARD who they are and makes it so that they don't have to rely on just being that coed group
Can’t y’all shut up about ‘ can they switch up ‘ ‘ they sound the same’ like just enjoying the music like it doesn’t matter if it sound the same. The tropical music may be they type of music. Just like twice all of there song are cute but you don’t here nobody saying nothing like can y’all just enjoy the music like damn stfu.
You sure about twice? Lol many people (even koreans) say that their cute concepts are getting annoying and outdated for them, one of the members is turning 25 so it's kinda silly to watch her doing crap like TT And for Kard, their tropical sound wouldn't be a bad thing if the songs didn't sound so familiar. For example rock groups, many af them play rock music for YEARS, even decades, and their songs are easly recognizable, but with Kard... Their main tracks are so similar that no-fans would get confused on what song is this.
If one popular group make similar sounds that's probably will ok. but when rookie group make similar sounds and choreography people say: "oh what the hell is that? , they always make same thing, they can't make good this job." Every kpop group have their own style. They're just rookie. And they brought a new style to kpop for me. So please don't be rude. Be supportive for this hard-working rookie group. (My english isn't good enough. Sorry.)
So I guess people forgot to tell WINNER to change it up every song too? I love WINNER and I love their current sound. But KARD is an easy target because they are a rookie group.
my bias is jiwoo and im very happy because she always get a screen time in this comeback. but i feel sorry to the two boys because they rarely see in the video.. i hope cameraman should also focus to the boys because they look like a backup dancer of the two girls. please give an equal screen time to all members of kard. they are all talented and they deserve to be promoted equally. btw my jiwoo slay!!!!!!! Please do well Kard, hidden kard are here to support you all the way... (sorry for my english)
I'm getting tired with all the comments, I think everyone here who admiring they're idol don't want other fandom to say kind of stuff to they're idol. K.A.R.D work hard and putted alot of passion and love in to they're music, I think we all need to enjoy the music and stop with the comparing stuff it's very annoying and sad. KARD fighting!!
