The primary woman group from PSY’s P Nation is about to make their debut in a couple of week, however as with so many different Ok-pop rookies they’ve launched a pre-debut taster. Wager You’ll Remorse It (지금을 놓치면 분명 너 후회할 거야) showcases a potential sound for the group that takes cues from the poppier facet of BLACKPINK’s oeuvre. There’s definitely potential right here however the tune’s restricted runtime flattens its ambition.
At simply over two minutes, Wager You’ll Remorse It is as a lot teaser as it’s tune. Its pop/rock sound hearkens again to an earlier Ok-pop technology, choosing a extra melodic strategy that retraces tropes quite than providing one thing new. The observe’s development could be very plug-and-play, transferring via distinct segments which can be as predictable as they’re nice. The pre-chorus feels particularly spinoff, however I suppose if it’s not damaged why repair it? Generally, I are likely to benefit from the steps Wager You’ll Remorse It is taking. I simply want it took them in a extra adventurous means.
Specifically, the tune’s refrain wants a serious kick within the butt. It’s trussed up with guitar to make it sound huge, however the melody is means too flat to stay. And with out the working time essential to tease out the chorus’s charms, Wager You’ll Remorse It merely fizzles out with no lasting affect. It does a good job teasing what’s going to hopefully develop into a standout 2025 rookie group, however P Nation wants to seek out Child DONT Cry stronger materials sooner or later.
