Rating Kpop Comebacks 2022

So, the title explains it! Feel free to put your opinions as well <3

antifragile - le sserafim 9/10
I have to admit, I didn't rlly like it all that much when I first listened to it. I wasn't a fan of Kazuha's "lovey lovey lovey dovey dovey dovey" part or the way Eunchae said "lion" and it rlly made me not like it all that much. The "anti ti ti ti fragile" was annoying to me and it felt like an out of place song. But, since I really liked le sserafim, I decided I would try to like the song. And boy, it worked. It's stuck in my head 24/7 now and I always find myself doing the choreo. The b-sides were amazing as well.

born pink - blackpink 8.5/10
when I first heard pink venom, honestly, I didn't hate it. It sounded pretty good to me actually. And now, this is embarrassing, but it's one of my favorite blackpink songs. The rap, the pre-chorus, the bridge, everything was amazing until the chorus, which was mid. They def could have had an amazing chorus but they decided to go with a bland one, and tbh I kinda liked it. It contrasted everything in the song and I felt it was a good song. Shut downn, I wasn't a fan of it. It def grew on me but I think the MV really threw me off. From the top of my head, if I had to think of a boring MV, shut down would def be in there. Although, the only bside that truly got stuck in my head was typa girl, which honestly could've replaced shut down. "The Album" was way better than this though.

I love - g-(idle) 8/10
I have mixed feelings about this album. The song "nxde" was beautiful but I feel like it was missing something. I don't have much to say about it, the songs in the album were ok and the only one that stuck with me is "love". This one is kinda short because I don't rlly have complaints or anything to say but yeahh

checkmate- itzy 6.5/10
I really do love itzy and I was excited when I saw the concept photos for checkmate, It looked amazing. But sneakers threw me off, sneakers is a catchy song no doubt. But it sounds like an add for a sneaker brand and I'm not a fan of it. The choreo is nice but the song... I didn't like the songs on the album and this made itzy fall on my list from 2nd favorite girl group to maybe 4th. Anyway, I really liked blah blah blah and boys like you though. But I feel like cheshire is pretty similar to the checkmate concept photos IMO, not a complaint, I just noticed that.

maxident - skz 9/10
I wouldn't rate this a 10/10, but I'll rate it a 9. Case 143 def isn't in the top 5 of my favorite skz's songs, but the b-sides on this album was chefs kiss. I loved the concept and just everything about this. The MV is cute as well!

I'll prolly add more when I'm bored but I'd love to here your opinions <3

After LIKE - IVE
7.5/10
I really liked it! However it just felt really mid to me I guess I am pretty disappointed it wasn't a mini album. But despite that the aesthetic and visuals of the MV are really good. But the album cover is really ugly.

DICE - NMIXX
8/10
It's been on repeat for me for atleast a month now. I love the song so much and it fits the NMIXX vibe a lot it also gave me a bit of red velvet's zimzalabim vibes too. I also like Cool Your rainbow it's pretty chill song to listen to and perfectly shows the members vocals.

Sneakers - ITZY
5/10
I have to admit I thought the song was gonna be really bad but after listening to i it wasn't as bad as I thought. But I still didn't like how they switched the whole royal concept because I was really excited for the new mature concept they were about to do.

LIMBO! - NATURE
9/10
I loved it at first listen! It's a fun energetic bop to listen to however I felt there were some parts that were bit unnecessary.

i'll add more later

After Like- IVE
9/10
It has a good sound and I really like it, but compared to Love Dive and Eleven it's not my favorite.

Sneakers- Itzy
10/10
I don't know why people hate this song, I really like it. But idk, my music taste is broken lol.

Girls-aespa
10/10
Another bop, I feel like 2022 was filled with bops. I actually don't really hate many K-Pop songs.

Wa Da Da- Kep1er
8/10
It's good, but the line distribution is so unfair. Poor Bahiyyih.

O.O- NMIXX
9/10
Would be 10/10 but I overplayed it too much.

Nerdy- Purple Kiss
8/10
It's good, but it's missing the iconic 'Purple Kiss on bloody top' line.
