Many women want to try singing BLACKPINK’s cute yet cool songs.

Jennie’s and Lisa’s rap parts raise the difficulty, but since this is a ballad, it might be easier to sing than their other tracks.

Overall, the chorus and other sections have very catchy, easy-to-understand melodies.

You can study and understand each word as you practice, or if you just want to sing, don’t rely only on romanized lyrics—first, listen carefully to the pronunciation with your own ears! There are sounds that are hard to write out in Japanese, so I think it’s best to listen and copy directly.
