NCT WISH 엔시티 위시 ‘poppop’ MV

Don’t Wanna CrySEVENTEEN

[M/V] SEVENTEEN(세븐틴) – 울고 싶지 않아 (Don’t Wanna Cry)

This is the title track from the 2017 album AI1.

It’s a love song about the pain of heartbreak.

In Japanese songs, it’s often the woman who sheds tears after breaking up with her boyfriend.

But in Korean love songs, you often see men depicted crying.

You can feel that she’s gone somewhere beyond his reach, and he’s desperately holding back his tears.

ButterBTS

BTS (방탄소년단) ‘Butter’ Official MV

Following “Dynamite,” this track also became a worldwide smash and a Billboard No.

1 song.

“Butter” has grown beloved by people of all ages in Japan as well.

It’s a beautiful dance-pop tune where a superb melody over a simple rhythm blends with BTS’s performance—light, laid-back, and exquisitely sung.

The lyrics, which depict romantic love and take you by the hand into a fun-filled world, are wonderful.

And the rap section is seriously fire! Longtime ARMY will find it irresistible, won’t they? Speaking of butter, its rich, addictive quality is part of the appeal—and maybe that’s exactly the kind of heart-stealing presence BTS has.
