While it's only been six months since their debut, rookie group OMEGA X has already made their mark in K-Pop. The 11-member boy group, consisting of members who have previously debuted or appeared on reality audition shows, have returned with their new mini-album LOVE ME LIKE. Composed of five tracks, this may be OMEGA X's most meaningful comeback yet.
The mini-album starts strong with the title "LOVE ME LIKE," with the song's instrumentation ending seamlessly transitioning to the next track, "ACTION." Both songs are bold in their sound and, in the case of “LOVE ME LIKE,” an equally fierce music video with saturated colors, bold outfits, and intense choreography. It's an impactful title track that we have come to know from OMEGA X, who continue not to hold anything back when it comes to their releases. Make sure you check out the music video for "LOVE ME LIKE" below!
While "LOVE ME LIKE" is undoubtedly a banger, the star of this comeback is the album's B-sides. As the album progresses, the songs get softer, showcasing all the sides of themselves that OMEGA X has to offer. This release also shows OMEGA X's growth over the past six months, as the members took more control over the composition and lyrics of songs such as "LIAR" and "PLEASE." In a press release, member Yechan commented on this aspect, saying, “I pour my sincerity and heart into each and every song I write, and 'LIAR’ is no different. It’s an affectionate track for me, and I’m so happy and proud it’s been included in this album. I hope FOR X finds our LOVE ME LIKE album relatable, and the album also brings us closer to our fans.”
A similar sentiment was stated by member Jaehan who said, “I believe this album really displays our diversity as a group. In addition, I hope to show a new charm and side of OMEGA X our fans have yet to see, particularly through our self-composed B-side tracks. I’m grateful we have the opportunity to showcase these songs.” There is also the track "12.24," which the group teased during their first fan meeting. These three tracks are quintessential soft-pop and a great example of the group's versatility during this comeback.
LOVE ME LIKE succeeds in showing the well-rounded group that OMEGA X strives to be (and is quickly becoming). It's a mini-album that, based on the member participation, holds valuable significance and is a meaning that does not go unnoticed by their fans.
