Wait a minute, is this Korean R&B, done right? Wow, shocking indeed. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Korean music, K-R&B is probably one of the most bloated genres in human history.

BAEKHYUN's EPs are some of the most amusing SM Entertainment has been able to pull off since Girls' Generation's non-specified disband.

Take "Love Again" and "Poppin'" as examples of consistent work from a consistent artist. Good one, man.

I respect Baekhyun for being one of the few kpop artistas capable of taking the R&B infused Kpop style and actually make it work

Baekhyun being a genuinely skilled singer adds to the charm of this album
a really enjoyable r&b album to just relax to
