daoko

wasn't what i expected, ngl, so i was a little bummed when i first heard it performed at their seoul concert. once it officially released and i gave it more time to listen to, it grew on me lol. the verses feel a little flat, as if it were lacking something, but the chorus has me on a chokehold

golden recipe and slingshot were kind of misses for me, but the overall album was perfection. feels like they're finally finding their sound that truly suits them, so i hope they stick with it in the future. personally have high horse, know about me, and papillon on constant repeat.

as much as i love aepsa, them being one of my top 5 groups, this has to be their weakest release to date :/ track list didn't feel very cohesive and was just underwhelming overall.

kpop aoty 2024, actually.
