Generic.
APINK is a cute group, I've accepted that. I haven't quite accepted that they're a generic cute girl group, let alone from CUBE because I keep hoping that CUBE has higher standards than that. Some of APINK's stuff has been really good, so I've been able to keep that hope alive.
This however is not some of that redeeming stuff. I like the sailor suits, and the bubble things in the background, but everything else is so prototypical it's painful. The song too, is just so blah and simple. There's a formula for generic cute and someone let CUBE's APINK team look at it before they made this. It's good, I mean it's catchy and simple and there's melodic movement and balance, it's just so . . . typical.
It's a solid release, I suppose, but I like to think I can hold CUBE to more impressive par.
