the thought of soobin going to art school for 3 years but keeping it from the members because he sucks at drawing so bad that no one would even believe him😭
yoojun’s mom posted an anecdote from ‘parenting diary’ on instagram
💬 “following the “eee” he learned from uncle taehyun during music core, yoojunie also learned how to say “kya~~” after he drinks water from him 👶🏻 (he kept constantly going “kya~~” at home after drinking water and i was like where did he learn that from haha)”
genres / descriptions of all tracks on ‘no
labels: part 02’ ⭐️
track 01. vanilla
- yeonjun is credited as a lyric writer
- he portrays the process of “i,” who had been living in an ordinary, familiar world, being drawn to new sensations and unfamiliar charm after meeting “you,” someone with a unique vibe and taste.
track 02. ice cream (title track)
- a funk rock sound that blends vintage drums, an addictive bass line and guitar riffs
- depicts a cool relationship where both people are sweet to each other but maintain a certain boundary. the lyrics add a witty touch by comparing the nature of ice cream to a romantic relationship; melting if it gets too hot and giving you a headache if you eat it too fast.
- the combination of a familiar title with a trendy arrangement hints at a “yeonjun-style summer song.”
track 03. even if i’m a little clumsy, again (baby wassup?)
- yeonjun is credited as a lyric writer
- captures the fluttering excitement and tension felt right before working up the courage to talk to someone you like, putting that heart fluttering moment into words.
track 04. no more disco
- a song about the moment two people who can’t quite fit in at a club, feeling out of place, happen to find each other and grow closer, drawn in by the music and the atmosphere.
track 05. fxxking star
- leaves a striking impression with lyrics that compare himself to both a dazzling celebrity/star and a literal star, one so hot it could burn everything down.
note: the song plays on the double meaning of ‘star’ in korean. 스타 (a celebrity/star) and 별 (a star in the sky)
track 06. long way long ride
- yeonjun is credited as a lyric writer
- it carries a message of comforting oneself after feeling shaken and exhausted along a long journey, closing with an honest message of comfort and encouragement directed at himself.
‘long way long ride’ sounds so sad 🥲
“The song conveys a message of soothing his own weary, wavering self amidst a long journey, ultimately concluding with words of honest comfort and encouragement directed at himself”
