SEVENTEEN’s title track “어쩌나 (Oh My!)” is a chill summer track that will surely put a smile on your face.

As the music video is summer-themed, from the different sets and outfits that the members wear, SEVENTEEN surely brings the heat in this latest release. You can’t help but smile at the chemistry and bond the SEVENTEEN members have with each other. There are several moments within the music video that are endearing and cheerful; you can just feel the friendship and positivity oozing out of the music video. “어쩌나 (Oh My!)” also features the idol boy group flawlessly executing their choreography, which comes as no surprise to fans of the group.

As this album is centered around summer (after all it is a summer release), SEVENTEEN made sure they really got people up and partying or having fun in general. The songs off this album are of different tempos but they still manage to be upbeat and bright throughout. This particular album falls into the trendy pop/EDM-influence category that we have seen happening throughout the K-Pop scene within recent years..

Fans are also once again treated to unit-specific songs as well within the album. For new fans, SEVENTEEN has different units that come together to create the whole group: the vocal unit, performance unit, and hip-hop unit. “Come to Me” is the vocal unit’s (Woozi, Joshua, Jeonghan, D.K, and Seungkwan) song off the album, which is one of the more chill and upbeat songs. It comes as no surprise that the vocal unit impresses with their soothing, rich vocals. “What’s Good” is the track that features the hip-hop unit (S.Coups, Vernon, Mingyu, and Wonwoo), which as a disco-like influence that you can groove to. The last of the unit tracks is the performance unit (Dino, The8, Hoshi, and Jun) with “Moonwalker.” This particular track is addictive and is one to put on blast when you’re getting ready to head out for the day/night.

All in all, SEVENTEEN has released a solid album that is perfect for summer. It’s definitely worth the listen and highly recommended to listen if you haven’t already! Congratulations to SEVENTEEN on their latest release. Fans who are attending KCON LA 2018 can look forward to seeing the group perform this coming August!
