Yena - Smartphone

Release Date:  August 3rd, 2022

How is she going to top Smiley?

Review:  She doesn't have to. The first song sounds like an intro song, soft pianos, and its clear to have a connection to her first ep. I really like it. But the title track is something else. "push, swipe" is very catchy, and i shouldn't complain, so i won't. i love kpop when its made of high fructose corn syrup. this song went off. Then the following song is a page out of the 00s. I noticed the y2k era is becoming a trend in kpop and i thought Yena fit the concept well. "Lemon-Aid" is breezy dance pop song that i love how it glides while her vocals sort of tip toes "La La La Lemon-Aid." it's really adorable. The last song "U" is clap your hands heavy, its fine, it's cute.

Summary:  I've had "Smiley" on repeat, but i don't remember what else that ep had. This ep seemed to be full of songs that are right at that baseline.
