Release Date: August 18th, 2023
the 2nd member of Twice to solo debut.
Review: This album is good, but it didn't click with me because I know Jihyo is a hard worker and talented singer, but her English pronunciations can be off-putting. So I didn't like the title track at first, the "you're making me feel something new" sounds weird, but the song is a banger if you don't focus on the words. "Talkin' About It" is fire and it's all in English. and she sounds great here. the rap feature from 24kGoldn is good too.
I slept on "Closer" and "Wishing on You" at first, but it's grown on me when I accept that it's meant to be a treading on water song. "Don't Wanna Go Back" is cool. its more melodic than the previous two. My favorite b-side goes to "Room." I'm not sure how to describe it other than it's gorgeous. Finally, "Nightmare" closes the album in epic fashion. It's interesting because she performed this as her solo stage on tour and I wasn't too keen on it, but the studio version is really good.
and if it matters, Jihyo was very hands on with the ep, where she has writing credits and production credits except for the title track.
Summary: But is this good? I mean, she's the leader and main vocalist of Twice.
Favorite Songs: Talkin' About It, Room, Nightmare
Rating: 8/10
