EDM electropop had a stranglehold on Ok-pop for a variety of years within the early-2010’s, and that was really a wonderful time. It was additionally an period of songs that didn’t take themselves too severely. “Lore” wasn’t essentially a factor in Ok-pop, although T-ara recorded a sequence of mini-movies that helped set up this strategy.

Attractive Love is the uncommon tune that encompasses either side of this coin. On its face, it’s a foolish dance quantity with a gimmicky (however great!) refrain. However then there’s the “drama model” of its music video, which lasts almost fifteen minutes and sees the group traversing a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Decide your poison, I suppose. A battle royale or a sequence of horny mannequins…

The tune itself is totally pleasant. It’s in by itself “horny” joke, however by no means skimps on robust melodies and resounding, club-ready manufacturing. It’s the final in a protracted sequence of songs that make the most of a repetitive, earworm hook to hypnotize listeners. Their string of singles from Bo Peep Bo Peep to Attractive Love nearly play like T-ara’s personal little cinematic universe. It’s a songwriting method that’s not often used on this identical method anymore, however for a monitor that would’ve wound up as little greater than novelty, Attractive Love has stood the take a look at of time.
