Playing the game of catch up for news and new releases and of course I need to start off with my current favorite girl group, NiziU. They just released their first Korean comeback and 2nd Korean single on March 31st, LOVE LINE.
The music video is another fun and cute watch like Heartris was. Though it does make me wonder why we were getting the more dark and mysterious promo videos for this release when the single leans more to NiziU's cute and cool side. But overall LOVE LINE works well as the successor of Heartris.
I found myself enjoying the B-side for the single, What if, more, as it gives us something a bit different than what NiziU has released so far. It has an anisong sound to it, but as NiziU is solidly in the pop genre for their music it fits, and does pair well with what they have released for their small but growing Korean discography.
Of course the most exciting thing for me as a long time WithU is to see them get full promotions in Korea for this release. Press Play just looked like the group was tipping their toes into Korean promotions with limited appearances on programs and a handful of dance challenges. This time around they are everywhere and I am living for it. And I hope this really lets them make a mark in the K-pop world so more international fans start paying them attention. And then perhaps one day my dream of seeing them in concert in the US will not remain a dream.
