Since WinWin is back again, we'll stretch the meaning a tiny bit for #KpopMonday #DebutSongs
WayV - Take Off https://youtu.be/irXZve4QRos
cw: lens flares, flashing, false color
If we call their version of Regular a pre-debut release, then this becomes the true debut of NCT's Chinese subunit.
I just love them, Your Honor. 😅
I want everyone to appreciate how #FrutigerAero Jolin Tsai's 2003 看我72變 is.

More Mandarin #KpopMonday #NonKoreanReleases
EXO - 為心導航 (Universe) https://youtu.be/hDSweokSCfg
cw: flashing
So given a choice between -K and -M, I tend to lean ever so slightly -M... which is probably Chen's fault (sorry, Baek), but going back into the catalogue for actual EXO-M leads to The Kris Problem, so ... have my third favorite Chinese version instead.
What can I say, I'm a sucker for thread imagery.
Speaking of songs that left me unhinged #KpopMonday #NonKoreanReleases
The8 - Orbit (feat. JinJiBeWater) https://youtu.be/UNEi6kDNmRE
cw: lens flares, flashing, diamond dust glitter, Minghao's fscking everything
CC in 15 tracks, incl ENG
I tried to stay loyal to my initial bias, but Xu Minghao said fuck that, you're mine now, & lo it is true. Jerk. 🥰
Despite everything, my heart is still a dancer, so of course this MV had me locked in from the start.
Language switch! Time for some Mandarin for our #KpopMonday #NonKoreanReleases
ZHOUMI - Starry Night (feat. RYEOWOOK) https://youtu.be/iac9dMW4zY8
Do you need a hanky warning or are you normal? This release coming at the relative start of the pandemic ... I might have gone a bit feral over it for a bit. But if they didn't want me going feral, they shouldn't've shot FOUR shippy videos for this love song.
