No one can resist getting hyped when they hear the drop’s surging, wobbly bass.

The music video, which became a hot topic, depicts her—whose face is recognized everywhere and who is surrounded by security—turning invisible.

It features a catchy melody and an upbeat tempo.
After Sulli left the group, you can enjoy f(x) in their new form with this track.

Luka Luka Night Feversamfree
Since it’s by the same artist, it has a similar style to “Riririri Burning Night,” but the vibe is different.
It’s still uptempo and sexy, but unlike “Riririri Burning Night,” the lyrics use imperative wording, making it a more intense track.
PON PON PONkyarī pamyu pamyu
This song is by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, a charismatic figure in Harajuku fashion.
The colorful vibe of the promotional video felt completely new to me and very refreshing.
I’m not very familiar with Harajuku fashion myself, but that kind of style was adorable and really lovely.
The song is super upbeat, and you can really feel Kyary Pamyu Pamyu’s individuality in it.
