The primary lady group from PSY’s P Nation is ready to make their debut in a few week, however as with so many different Okay-pop rookies they’ve launched a pre-debut taster. Wager You’ll Remorse It (지금을 놓치면 분명 너 후회할 거야) showcases a attainable sound for the group that takes cues from the poppier facet of BLACKPINK’s oeuvre. There’s actually 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 Okay-pop technology, choosing a extra melodic strategy that retraces tropes slightly than providing one thing new. The monitor’s building could be very plug-and-play, shifting by means of distinct segments which might be as predictable as they’re nice. The pre-chorus feels particularly spinoff, however I suppose if it’s not damaged why repair it? Normally, I are inclined to benefit from the steps Wager You’ll Remorse It is taking. I simply want it took them in a extra adventurous method.

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 method too flat to stay. And with out the operating time essential to tease out the chorus’s charms, Wager You’ll Remorse It merely fizzles out with no lasting impression. It does a good job teasing what’s going to hopefully change into a standout 2025 rookie group, however P Nation wants to search out Child DONT Cry stronger materials sooner or later.
