What's going on with B1A4?

Since the K-pop trend these days is to ask questions - if you don't know what I mean check 4Minute, SHINee, Hello Venus and now B1A4 title tracks - I think I should also have question titles for my articles. In this case it's not really hard since I borrowed B1A4's 4th Mini Album title 'What's Going On?'
Until they made their comeback I hadn't realized how much I missed them! So for their return our boys changed their music style. Leaving behind their nolstagic, ballad vibe for a more dance, pop sound, it kinda reminds me their 'Ok' and 'Baby Good Night' era. Maybe they wanted to return to their roots which is a good thing since the song is amazing! 
I find it interesting that we hear a small narration in the beginning, in the middle and at the end of the song from Jinyoung and Baro. It's like we can hear their thoughts and it gives a funny note to the song. My favorite part is when Baro and CNU are singing. Especially the 거짓말 is very addicting! The chorus is so up-lifting that it makes you turn the volupe up and start singing and jumping up and down.
As for the mv I like the whole 'stuck - in - a - dollhouse -' theme. B1A4 likes a girl but it seems to me that the girl doesn't like them to much. ( what to expect from a girl that wears a mask ) . Maybe if she wasn't stuck up in a room with another guy ( who is also wearing a mask ) the whole situation might be different. Anyway the boys don't give up and they try to invade in the girl's room by making holes in the wall, putting secret cameras to see what the duo is doing and many other spying things that don't work out. What is left is their human power that it has a pretty huge effect since they managed to destroy the wall and the door. They also beat out the mask-boy too by cutting his head off with a pillow. ( Note : stay away from Baro if he's holding a pillow ). But now that the mask-boy is gone, the members get in a pillow fight with each other to see who is gonna be with the girl. The funniest scenes in the mv is probably when Baro threatens the mask-boy and when the members sit on the couch exhausted while they are looking at the camera. Hilarious!
Although we don't get to see much of B1A4's choreography, the fast hand movements they do near the end are awesome!
So Banas to see yourselves what's happening, press the play button!

Take a walk with B1A4

November must be the most amazing month so far. And the reason why is simple : It's filled with amazing comebacks! So although there are also other idols that are worth mention for their return, in this aricle I'm gonna write about B1A4.
I wasn't really into B1A4 until they made their comeback with their 3rd mini album 'Tried To Walk' which is also the title track. I must say that the promotions worked out well because I was totally hooked up. Only the first teaser which was just a video of a meadow with no hints of the song neither the members, amazed me. The song is a masterpiece! The sad vibe that it has and the emotions that the members show, make this ballad even better than it already is. When I listen to it I get a feeling mixed with hope and unhapiness, a unique combination. The mv won't ruin your expectations as it has wonderful landscapes and vivid colors in one hand and on the other hand you are watching the same landscapes being destroyed as someone has taken the life or the more materialistic side of them. 

 

The only thing missing is the choreography right? Well luckily for us there are stages performances! The only think that might be better than the mv are the live stages. The choreography is awesome. I like that they are using a bench instead of dancing the whole time. They sit on it, moving and hitting their feet to the music's beat, step on it and dancing synchronized with the back up dancers. Banas support their group very well as you can hear them clearly screaming and singing along with the members in every performance.


I think this kind of music suits B1A4 the most. Their previous songs weren't bad but with this song they are more mature showing their full potentials and amazing vocals. It's propably gonna be a very successful ride for B1A4!
