200%AKMU (Akdong Musician)

Akdong Musician(AKMU) – 200% M/V

The laid-back, easygoing mood of “200%” leaves a strong impression.

It’s one of the three title tracks from AKMU’s debut album “PLAY,” by the brother-and-sister acoustic duo known for their high-quality songs.

You get along well but can’t quite read the other person’s feelings; things feel promising, but you can’t take that extra step.

It fits the feelings of a one-sided crush.

As the song progresses, the harmonies grow more comfortable, evoking the excitement of growing closer.

It sounds like it would be fun to duet together at karaoke, too!
