Beast 1st Album - Fiction And Fact

Finally, after four mini albums, Beast has released a full-length album! I thought they were never going to release one and just keep releasing mini albums lol.

I can't get over how awesome all the boys sound SIGH. They all just sound really amazing and their songs now have a distinctive Beast flavour that sets them apart from the other gazillion songs in the KPop scene now. So I'm just gonna put this first: I love this album. It's great, it's awesome, it's SO BEAST.

I think Dongwoon is now officially the 2nd main vocal, along with Hyunseung :). They take turns singing the first part of the choruses, while Yoseob sings the second part. It's such a big upgrade for him since even up to Lights Go On Again, he used to be the member with the least lines. It just goes to show how much he has improved and that the company recognises that as well ^__^. I still remember how he used to sound kinda stiff in Beast's early days. Look at how great he sounds now; I'm so proud of him!

A complaint, though: it's great that Dongwoon is getting a lot more lines, but in exchange, Kikwang is getting sooo little lines! It's like equivalent to what Dongwoon used to get. Cube, can't you just distribute the lines a little more evenly? x___x

1. The Fact

As always, Beast's intro songs are good. Yoseob kills me with his part omg. My favourite part is probably Kikwang's repeated "It's a lie" and "This isn't the truth" though lol. It's kinda haunting.

2. Fiction

I already spazzed about it at length here, so I won't repeat it here. But I didn't mention how awesome the boys' falsettos are. And Doojoon sounded like he was about to break down during his part at 3:17; it sounds so sad :(. Anyway, I really love this song ♥.

3. Back To You

At first this song didn't do anything to me, to be honest. But after a few listens, it grew on me. It's such a catchy song! Don't be fooled, though; the lyrics are sad :/. Love the heavy beats in the bridge! OMG there's autotune in the chorus! Beast never used to use autotune, but since it's really not much and it complements the song, I guess it's alright ^^.

4. You

Such a sweet, warm song! Dongwoon's voice in the beginning sounds so good ^__^. Ahh I love this song. "You, you, you~"

5. Freeze

Junhyung personally composed, wrote and arranged this song! He's always done a great job writing his raps, so it's a not a surprise that he'd write good lyrics, but it's so unexpected that he'd compose such an adorable song lol SO CUTE XDD. He did a good job though :). I'm looking forward to seeing more of his works in the future!

6. Virus

One of my favourite songs in the whole album! It's reaaally good. Love the distinctive beat and the whole feel of the song. Yoseob's rock-ish voice in the last chorus = LOVE. I always spazz over it every time I listen to the song; I can never get over that, so don't bother telling me to XD. That high note near the end is omg! I think that's Yoseob, but I'm not entirely sure. Whoever it is, it's amazing yo~. And I love the lyrics even though they're so sad sigh.

7. 불러보지만 (Calling You)

I like the rock-ish edge in Yoseob's voice in this song ^___^. And his long note near the end is great!

8. 비가 오는 날엔 (On Rainy Days)

THIS SONG. It's one of the songs in my "poison" playlist lmao. It's SO SAD. The lyrics kill omg. But it's really, really awesome. The members expressed the emotions of the song really well. There was news saying that the recording of this song had to be stopped a few times 'cos the members cried. Sigh, I totally understand. Anyway, Yoseob's falsettos give me goosebumps. And the whole song sounds so peaceful; just like the title, it's the perfect song to listen to during rainy days. Love the guitar throughout the song.

9. Lightless (Unplugged Ver.)

Beast sang this during their concert! I really like this version. Love how the heavy beats in the original song are replaced by guitar and percussion, and the more soothing way the members sing the song. Dongwoon sounds so emotional in his part. I loved the original song, but I really like this too! I can't decide which is better so DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE.

10. Fiction (Orchestra Ver.)

One word: AWESOME. It's an orchestra version, which means lotsa awesome instruments. And because the beats are all stripped down, the boys' voices really shine here. I usually don't even bother listening to remixes/whatever versions of the same song 'cos I usually like the original version the best anyway, but Beast make reeeeally good new versions of their songs.

I'm so proud to be a B2uty :).

Beast - Fiction

OMGOMGOMG.

Firstly, I love this song! LOVE that little melody on piano in the beginning that keeps getting repeated throughout the song. It's sooooo nice! Well basically this song has awesome piano. And the sound of writing on a parchment is a nice touch. Can someone make me an instrumental only version of this song please omg!

The thing I always love about Beast's songs is that they are really tight -- not one second of the songs feel like a waste. There are enough instruments and sounds layering the song in the background that serve as solid foundations for the members' voices, plus heavy beats throughout the song. So to be able to appreciate the song one has to listen to the whole song, complete with the instruments and all, and not just the voices. And I love that. I think Junhyung's rapping plays a part in that as well, especially when he's rapping over another member's singing. And how amazing are the boys' voices here?! Yoseob is flawless as always and I can never profess my love enough to him, but the other members sound just as good! Dongwoon has improved a lot and I'm so proud of him :).

Secondly, the choreography is awesome! The footwork part is amazing and it looks totally chill and cool in my opinion. Plus it's quite unlike any choreography others have done, so it's something new and is sure to be remembered easily by the viewers. It may look like just feet shuffling, but according to the members' tweets, it's very hard to learn ^^;;. And of course Beast has neat group dance, but we'll have to wait for the live performance to see it more clearly. But anyway, Prepix+Beast FTW!

Thirdly, the boys look hella gorgeous in the MV! Really like Hyunseung's slick short cut and orange hair. He has the best hair this time round, I think ^_____^. Junhyung, I have clearly forgotten how hot he looks when he's rapping, especially with eyeliner on asdfghjkl. I'm not really diggin' Kikwang's tan 'cos it makes him look way too serious when in fact he's a squishy innocent adorable kid, but hey he still looks good so it's okay XD.

Lastly, the MV itself. I like that set where the boys are dancing in army-colour-looking clothes! Awesome lighting. The tunnel-looking set reminds me of Shock MV and the one with sunset colours looks like the one in Bad Girl MV dance break part. Junhyung's hair in that sunset set also looks like the one in Bad Girl lol XD. Doojoon's look at 0:51 and 3:27 will HAUNT ME FOR LIFE OMG. And and Park Bo Young is SOOOO PRETTY *__*.

Can't wait for their comeback stage! Sigh. BEAST IS THE B2ST.

I love Yoseob.

Just putting this here 'cos it's a fact, haha ^^.

041210 Mnet Ultimate Live Asia in Singapore

The sound system sucked. It totally did not do their voices justice, and I'm angry at that :/. (Or maybe because I was standing directly in front of the speaker, since somehow in my fancams the sound was actually not as bad as I thought it was.) Still, even with the mic glitches and horrible speaker, the artists did well. I had lotsa fun! We were very close to the stage and a lot of times we could see them quite clearly :). All of them look the same as they do on screen, which means that they look damn good XD.

First was MBLAQ! Lee Joon is so good-looking *__*. His dance solo was awesome! G.O is a really good singer. I was so surprised to realise that he looks a lot like Rain lol.

Next was Miss A! Suzy didn't come, but the other 3 members did well all the same. I felt that they weren't receiving enough cheers so even though I'm not a fan, I cheered for them really loudly hehe. During their performances there were quite a number of mic glitches; organiser/sound manager/whoever I'm looking at you -.-. Anyway, because Min is from America while Jia and Fei are from China, they totally did not need any translator haha!

Third was 2AM! They performed 7 songs. Gosh they were totally amazing IDE *___*. You Wouldn't Answer My Calls almost sent me straight to heaven HAHA. I nearly cried a few times because of Jokwon's singing too. Aside from his incredible vocals he danced girl group dances and some ssanti dances too; he's just too awesome hahaha! Changmin was speaking in English, which surprised me ^^. The members each gave out a teddy bear to the audience too!

Next was Beast! They were wearing their yellow set of Beautiful outfit. They performed 9 songs, which was awesome. They performed well! One of the songs was Clenching A Tight Fist, which made me giddy with happiness 'cos I really love that song and the members hit all the right notes, but also irritated again because of the sound system D:<. Hyunseung was receiving way too little cheers (it made me a little mad, even though he isn't even my bias -.-), so I cheered as much as I could for him. He sounded really good! Dongwoon was so friendly to the fans as usual; he's such a dear :D. Yoseob pulled off the "I don't know~" in Breath perfectly omg I'm so happy to finally witness it live. He didn't look that energetic, though, which is obviously because he is really tired :(. Sigh I'm really worried about him :/. Beast has a craaazy schedule. Be strong, boys!

Last was 2PM! They received the loudest cheers for the night, and every member got lotsa cheers. They performed a whopping 12 songs, had a few changes of costume, put on angel wings for one song and gave out roses. They were the best in ensuring all of us could get a clear view of them, as they went to all parts of the stage, stayed for some time and then switched sides. Honestly speaking I was really tired after cheering with all my might for Beast, but surprisingly, I recovered and found myself enjoying their performances. I really should have taken more fancams of them, but I was really too tired ^^;;. Nichkhun is simply flawless guh, and there's something charming about Taecyeon. Somehow my eyes kept finding Wooyoung, though, I don't even know why XP.

I took a lot of fancams, but because they were all taken using my phone, the picture and sound quality are bad =X. I realised that my Beast fancams are so shaky since I was so distracted because they kept running around and I was cheering too; they are painful to watch lol ^^;;.

I gave a few "firsts" to this concert; the first time staying out for something other than a school camp, the first time some stranger made a pass at me (lol it was hilarious), the first time I tried queuing overnight for something, the first time I went for a full free-standing concert. All in all, I really enjoyed this concert, but really, next time, there's no more queuing overnight/super early for me! I'll just come like one hour before the official queue starts and be contented about being able to listen to them live. Yeah :).

Yoseob & Drama - 첫 눈 그리고 첫 키스 (First Snow, First Kiss)

OMGGGGGGGG. It's really downright ridiculous how happy this song makes me feel. It's such a nice, sweet song! And it's so.... warm. Yoseob and Drama have great voices and they go well together despite the contrast; Yoseob's is on the higher side and Drama's is low and deep. They're both good singers and did very well, vocally. I love the heavy beats of the song too! And I even hear electric guitar LOL AWESOME. I think I'm gonna be listening to this song on repeat for a few days haha ^^.

Anyway, Drama's real name is Daniel, and Yoseob and him have been really good friends since a long time ago. They even made UCC videos together, which are a lot of crack LOL. Yoseob debuted with Beast first, and a year later Daniel debuted with Dalmatian. (Dalmatian's debut song, Round 1, is catchy, by the way, and they perform well live!)

And the MV! I died, I died, died a thousand times over with a big smile on my face. Those smiles are so precious :)). They are both really adorable; Yoseob is obviously the cutest thing on Earth, and Drama's eye smile is really cute too! And when Yoseob was about to leave at the end, they seemed really reluctant to part. Drama even cried afterwards haha. Friendship is amazing huh?

Their "couple" name is Yoda! How cool is that lol XD. Soulmate too, actually, which is rather an apt description of their friendship, I feel. And if you haven't guessed already, Yoda is one of my OTPs, because obviously, their friendship is real ^^. I hope that they will form a duet and release singles/mini albums when they're not having activities with their respective groups, because even purely on the musical point of view, they sound really good together :D.

Just a little comment: they said at the beginning that they both don't remember their first love, or who their first love was. I don't believe that, not a single bit ^^.

Fact #1 about myself

During Beast's promotional period for Breath, I trial-ed the song on Soribada day and night, whenever I was at home. I set the volume really low and if I wanted to listen to music, I'd play it over the song. Sometimes when I had to, say, webcast a lecture whose volume would be really soft, I'd be very frustrated 'cos I'd have to stop trial-ing for the time being. Because I listened to the beginning one minute of the song so many times, sometimes I'd hear Dongwoon's adlib out of nowhere when the song wasn't actually playing.

Now since Beast has stopped their promotions for Breath, I stopped trial-ing the song. I don't listen to only Beast's songs too; I listen to random artists' songs depending on my mood. But Yoseob's "I don't know~" adlib is my handphone ringtone and my alarm tone, so needless to say, other than the times I listen to the actual song or watch performances, I hear it a lot. And it's the first thing I hear when I wake up in the morning. So somehow now like the case with Dongwoon's adlib, I'm hearing that part everywhere even when it's not actually playing.

I listened to the 30 seconds teaser of Beautiful on repeat this morning. I'm counting down to the release of Lights Go On Again tomorrow. I immediately pre-ordered it and Mastermind too, even though before I'd never have bought a mini album for $18. Even though I do like 2AM and I'm okay with 2PM and MBLAQ, if Beast wasn't coming, I wouldn't have even considered spending $180 for the Mnet Ultimate Live this coming December.

What is life? I have no life.

So fact #1: my life has been taken over by Beast.

I don't know how many times I've watched this. All I know is that every time I do, it makes me smile. And that I have two OTPs in Beast now: Junseob and Kiseob LOL.

101031 Chae Yeon (feat. Junhyung) - Ma Lover

Junhyung is one of the best rappers among all idol groups in Korea now, imo. Seriously, no biasness there. He's just a natural; he's got swagger and great flow.

In all the original songs he's featured in, he makes the song better. Not to mention he writes his own rap.

Hyuna - Change [MV | live 1 2]

G.NA - I'll Back off So You Can Live Better [MV | live 1 2 3 4]

G20 - Let's Go [Korean | English]

On the other hand, for other artists' performances he's featured in, he always performs them with his own style, and sounds really good at that.

K.Will - Present [1 2 3] (GORGEOUS song, by the way.)

For instance, in this song Ma Lover, originally the rap part is more like a singing/rapping, but Junhyung turned into a pure rapping. And it sounded terrific.

I think Junhyung is amazing :).

So, I had this idea..

When Shinhwa makes a comeback in 2012 (HELL YEAH), they should hold a big-scale concert. And invite Beast as a guest performer, 'cos both of them are dance groups with 6 members, and Beast looks up to Shinhwa. And because Kikwang totally reminds me of Taeyang, who in turn reminds me of Minwoo. And Beast should perform one of Shinhwa's songs. The parts will be allocated as such:

Hyesung = Yoseob

Dongwan = Hyunseung

Minwoo = Kikwang

Junjin = Dongwoon

Andy = Doojoon

Eric = Junhyung

Junjin raps and sings, so Beast should pick a song where he sings, not raps, 'cos Dongwoon isn't a rapper. And everything would work out perfectly well and I'll be a super happy fangirl XDD.

101015 Beast - Clenching A Tight Fist @ Narsha Volume Up

Doojoon is sick :(. Hyunseung and Kikwang have flu too, I think.

Hyunseung came in too early during his part and everyone turned to stare at him haha! LOL why was Junhyung clapping and smiling so happily in the middle of such a sad song XDD.

YOSEOB TOTALLY KILLED IN THIS PERFORMANCE OMG IDEK. I almost cried listening to his singing. Seriously, kill me already.

They also performed Shock, without Doojoon. The highlights of this performance: Junhyung's SWAGGER; Kikwang being so adorable at 1:53-2:04 (and throughout, actually); Yoseob's ROCKER adlibs at the back.

Dongwoon sang his solo part in V.I.U and he sounded awesome! (Yoseob's little adlib too HEHE.) Bet he wanted to impress Narsha LOL XDD. Lotsa other adorable moments too, but I'm too lazy to link them all so just Youtube them okay ^^;;.

101014 Beast - #1 + Encore @ M!Countdown

YAY :DD. I have no words; I'm just really happy for them :)). Maknae finally got to say his speech; the other times they won he was always crying too hard to say anything LOL. The encore was really adorable! Hyunseung lied down on the floor and made some weird movements, so the members told him to stop it HAHA. Yoseob really ate their CD up, I see ^^;;. And he really liked to hold that trophy! Doojoon was SO adorable at 2:14 onwards, but I was so focused on the hand behind that even as I rewatched it for the second time, I had to rewind to look at Doojoon properly, LMAO. And I see JUNSEOB at 3:28! (My Junseob radar is SUPER sharp, 'kay!) And lastly Yoseob's 3-seconds adlib starting from 3:31 made me infinitely happy ROFL.

101008 Beast - Breath @ Music Bank, winning #1

Overall today's performance was really good! Doojoon sounded especially clear. But Yoseob cracked a liiiiiiittle bit during his high note ^^;;. I think they did decide to let him dance less at some parts, since his parts are very straining vocally. Anyway. Kikwang at 1:16 *____*.

The backstage interview was so adorable! We have Doowoon, Kiseung and Junseob; the Beast Almighty chef teams LOL. Look at the mirror! Kikwang was lifting Hyunseung up and vice versa 'cos the two towers that were Doojoon and Dongwoon were standing in front blocking the rest of the kids. Yoseob started playing hide-and-seek with a scary face behind Dongwoon, and Junhyung started hitting his head. Other spazz-worthy moments: Dongwoon jumping so hard while Doojoon sang 2NE1's Go Away, the boys announcing and singing FTI's Love Love Love :D. Seriously I can watch this video the whole day HAHAHA. Hyper kids ♥♥♥.

And they won #1!!! OMGOMG *spazzes*.

Doojoon's blank face when Beast was announced as the winner was so precious :'). The Junseob hug made me SO happy IDEK. Yoseob later hugged Hyunseung too keke. Key and the other member of Supreme Team were laughing their heads off at Dongwoon crying and Simon D was wiping Dongwoon's tears with a "AWW YOU BIG BABY" expression on his face and Taemin was smiling while looking at him lol that scene was SO ADORABLE OKAY. And Dongwoon trying to hold back his tears at 0:55! Junhyung hugged Onew! Hyunseung lied on the floor and was trying to do the funny version of the "breathe in breathe out" dance lol. I love how Yoseob was the one who first turned to the other singers and bowed repeatedly. And this is not related but I also love how Onew walked to Yoseob who was standing in the middle of the stage looking overwhelmed (to congratulate him I think) before walking back off the stage HEHE X). (I like Onew!) I think Yoseob must have cried a lot afterwards haha.

Congrats boys; you really deserve this award :)).

101007 Yoseob's Yozm posts

B2UTY~nims! Why are you apologizing!? I'm actually really thankful..!!! As always tremendously thankful!! Let's be happy for a long long time!

Aigooo Gonna go to sleep wonder how long its been the last time I slept..??? keke Then everyone sleep well!!! BEAST is nothing without B2UTYs keke

CREDITS: Dongwon's Yozm (SOURCE), dujunseob@ B2STRISING (TRANS)


He called us B2uty-nim LOL! I don't know, somehow Yoseob just has this ability to make people happy, don't you think?

I think I should stop reading his Yozm posts. But I don't want to >.<.

101007 Beast comeback @ M!Countdown

First they sang the full Clenching A Tight Fist, which made me really happy XD. But their voices aren't exactly in top conditions :(. Doojoon's voice cracked once and Yoseob was struggling with the high notes. The performance was mostly okay, though. And they looked good in white!

Breath was okay. But Yoseob's voice cracked once and he wasn't dancing fully; at some points when singing his part he didn't dance like he usually does. Or maybe they decided to let him dance less during those parts to reduce the strain on him? I was so worried for his "I don't know", but luckily he pulled it off just fine :). And I like the black outfits too ^^!

Beast was up against 2NE1 for #1, but they lost by one point :((. It's alright, hope they will win tomorrow! *crosses fingers*

Still, I'm worried for the boys, especially Yoseob :/. Doojoon did mention in his Twitter that the boys are falling sick one by one. And this is still Thursday too; they have like 4 more performances and lots of interviews to go D:. Hope they will get enough rest and take care of their health!

Breath dance practice

AWESOME, PERIOD.

101005 Yoseob's Yozm posts

CREDITS: Yoseob's YOZM (SOURCE); GEE @ B2STRISING.COM (TRANS)

Actually one of the main reasons why I like Yoseob so much and why I "fell" for him that fast, was because of his posts on Yozm. It was because of how genuine he seems to be. I don't know, he's just so sweet ;______;.

101003 Beast comeback @ Inkigayo

BEST comeback stage hands down! (I typed BEAST instead of BEST a few times LOL.) The stage setting was awesome for both performances, with a string orchestra in the first and man-made rain and cool effects in the second. The cameraman was very good too!

They performed Clenching A Tight Fist first. Everyone sounded really good! Kikwang missed the beginning and I think Junhyung forgot the first few words of his lyrics, but they weren't noticeable and it was still a great performance. I was streaming this live when it suddenly stopped just before the chorus and I literally almost screamed LOL. Luckily it continued after just the first two lines of the chorus. After watching it on Youtube, I discovered that I was right; Yoseob and Hyunseung sing the first 2 lines of the chorus, then Yoseob sings the rest ^^. Love the all-black clothes! Hyunseung is so pretty with his hair like that GUH. And Junhyung is so hot hahaha. Dongwoon was caught laughing at 2:04 LOL!

Breath was next! Everyone sounded AMAZING, I still can't really wrap my mind around it *____*. Were they even singing?! Listen to the MR audio and be wow-ed! I know that they're good, but I'm still amazed sometimes haha. Yoseob's high note was perfect (again) too; it's kinda a given now that it'd be perfect huh ^^. I think I like this set of military costumes best out of all the other Breath costumes so far. B2uties' fanchants were really loud :))!

There was an interview in the beginning too! It was adorable and Yoseob hugged Yonghwa (C.N Blue) at one point lol XP. Kikwang was the one talking most of the time, but I think he stumbled on his words a few times haha XD.

Anyway, this is only their 5th time performing Breath and 1st time performing CATF, yet they already sound this good. Ahhh I'm so happy I'm a fan of Beast :D. BRB listening to the performances again for the nth time.

101002 Beast - Breath @ Music Core

When it was said that there would be an intro I thought it was gonna be another dance intro or something like that, but it was just a video intro with clips from Breath MV and Mastermind in the background (Yoseob's part that wasn't played in Music Bank lol) ^^;;.

The performance itself was okay. Since this performance was recorded on the 30th, it was the first performance of this song and I think they sounded clearer in the Music Bank performance yesterday. Doojoon sounded louder here though. Everyone was on pitch. And like I said, Yoseob nailed his high notes yay \o/. It wasn't totally perfect because I am picky like that and I know he can do perfect XD. Appearance-wise, I prefer this set of costumes over the previous one. Yoseob, Kikwang and Doojoon had their second hairstyle from the MV. Kikwang's is alright, but I don't like Yoseob's; this was the hairstyle that made him look like a gangster >.<. Doojoon looks better with the previous one too lol.

Anyway, honestly speaking, I think Beast chose a bad time for their comeback :/. Now there are so many big names doing their promotion too, and so many other popular groups having their comeback now or really soon. Sigh. I know it's just the starting of their promotion and it's too early for me to say this, but I really hope that they will win something :S. They deserve to, since they're really good, but they're just very new compared to the rest and they have a smaller fanbase. But they were competing with 2NE1 for #1 on MCountdown on Sept 30, even before their comeback, so I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed. Beast hwaiting!

101001 Beast comeback @ Music Bank

Comeback stage! Generally they all looked good and their outfits looked great too, especially the casual ones in the beginning. Each member did a dance solo first; everyone did well! Kikwang's arm waves were all kinds of awesome and Hyunseung's stretching was hot somehow, but my favourite is Junhyung's 'cos he's just cool like that XD. And I noticed that Yoseob tends to use the music in his dance instead of just dancing to the music, which I like hehe :3.

First they performed Mastermind. It was so short and Yoseob didn't get to sing his part *whines*! But anyway. It wasn't anything special, to be honest, and they really should have some kind of choreography for it, in my opinion. Or they can just keep to the current freestyle thing, but the members should totally move more! Their movements looked kinda restricted lol; only Junhyung seemed like he was really feeling the music ^^;;. But then again, Junhyung has that natural swagger XD. Kikwang glaring at the camera at 1:42 was hot muahahaha.

Next was 숨 (Breath), of course, and it was good! I really like the choreography :D. The cameraman was kinda fail-y though ^^;;. And how come that arm-stretching part that Kikwang did in the MV isn't part of the choreography :(. Anyway, Junhyung had the feathers in his hair haha! Dongwoon was hot when he turned around at the beginning of his part, so the fangirls screamed, and I think he couldn't help smirking lol XP. Hyunseung dyed his hair black; it looks much better now and he looks so pretty! Everyone sang well. Yoseob's parts in the chorus are vocally challenging, but he sang them all fine; he never fails to impress! He also did his "I don't knowww" part and cracked near the end, but for the most part it was still damn awesome and I believe he'll do better in the next performance, since he already sang it so well yesterday. Yoseob hwaiting :)).

The backstage interview was adorable! Everyone looked happy and excited ^^. Doojoon's voice cracked when he talked in the beginning and I think the members laughed at him lol. They said a one word of English and surprisingly everyone sounded fine, especially Dongwoon who said one sentence by himself. The English lesson in Idol Maid must have helped HAHAHA. (Can't wait for the subs for that episode to be out! It's gonna take a long time though.) Yoseob kept doing the chest-popping move after everyone else stopped, lol he's such a hyper kid ♥.

Anyway. After I re-read this whole post I realised that I sound really biased. I'm not that biased, really >.<.

Beast - 숨 (Breath)

OMGOMG where do I even start. This MV is freakin' awesome! The set looks gorgeous and the effects used are good. Everyone looks totally fly and they all have nice hair! I'm glad Yoseob doesn't look like a gangster here, even though somehow I thought he did in the teaser. Junhyung's hairstyle looks sooooo good! I think throughout the MV he had like at 4 different hairstyles, including with accessories and without, but they all look good lol. Everyone else has at least 2 different hairstyles, except for Dongwoon whose very short hair doesn't leave much to work with, but he looks good with it. I think the outfits look great too. Kikwang looks so innocent at 4:03 hahaha!

The best part about the MV is the choreography! Love the whole chest-popping breathing and cover-face-with-hands-then-stretch-the-arm (lol) moves. Kikwang at 2:08 GUH. I like everything about the choreography, actually, with all the formation and stuff. The floorwork is great too! I'm still kinda sad that Yoseob doesn't get to do those moves again since he'd be singing, but that part is the "I DON'T KNOWWWWW" part which is so awesome it is now my ringtone, so I can't complain XDD.

About the song. Honestly, I like this song a lot more after watching the MV, LOL. It wasn't an instant hit for me, 'cos I had hoped that they had included more instrumentals like the one in the teaser instead of just electronic sounds. But yeah, I really like it a lot now! It's a really tight song; once one verse is over the transition to the next feels very natural imo, especially the transition between Yoseob's high note and Junhyung's rap. My favourite part other than my ringtone LOL is Junhyung's rapping parts; he's just SO damn good. And Yoseob really needs to start singing rock, 'cos seriously, don't you think he already sounds very rock-ish even now?

Can't wait for their comeback performance tomorrow! I hope Yoseob will perform that awesome part live HAHAHAHA. And I think they're gonna perform Clenching A Tight Fist too right? Maybe not tomorrow, but for one of the comebacks. I looooove that song; been listening to it non-stop ^^.
