Hello everyone, the first thing I want to say is yes I have changed my channel name in case you're confused.
I was thatsthequeso, now I am petalyoojung. I know that changing your channel name is frowned upon, but I was just not happy with the name anymore.
And if you wanna know more about why I decided to change the name you can look in the description box of this video or my latest community post.
So now that is out of the way, welcome to yet another comeback review video, where every month, or sometimes every 2 months if I don't get around to it,
I give my honest opinions on the comebacks or releases that I choose to talk about.
I always include comebacks from the most popular
groups, regardless of my opinions of the group itself.
I also always include groups that I stan,
even if they’re not very well known.
I do apologize if a comeback you were hoping for me to discuss was not included, that just means that I either
1. didn’t listen to it 2. don’t have anything to say about it or 3. don’t care.
I don’t mean to say I don’t care in a negative way, but you can’t expect every kpop stan to care and keep up with every single group, you know what I mean.
With this being said, you are welcome to leave comebacks that I missed in the comments, and I will check them out if I haven’t and reply to you with my opinion.
In my last two comeback review videos, I included a speed round with comebacks that I didn’t want to go in depth on but I still wanted to include, but this time around, I’m not going to be doing that.
I have 19 comebacks to talk about, which I
will be ranking, that I will discuss in depth, so this video will be pretty long.
These rankings are subject to change, so don’t take them too seriously.
Please remember that this is only one person on the internet's opinion, and with that let’s  get right into the review.
I know Treasure already has a big fan base
so they won’t be happy with Boy being at
the bottom, but this debut was just plain bad, not that I really had any expectations of it being good.
The verses were good I guess, but the chorus
was just painful to hear.
That metallic sound really turned me off, and I wouldn't have even finished the song  if I wasn’t reviewing it.
To be honest, the only reason I even checked
out this debut was because it was from YG.
I’m not very interested in newer boy groups,
or really boy groups in general.
I actively follow maybe 5 or 6 boy groups, and I haven’t been paying attention to 2020  boy groups in the slightest.
The only 2020 boy group debut that I’ve
liked is Sorry Mama by DKB.
But anyways, that’s beside the point.
I was just very disappointed by this debut and I don’t have any expectations for Treasure in the future.
It’s not like I have anything against the group, but I have a feeling their next releases  will also not be to my liking.
But maybe they’ll surprise me, who knows?
Overall, I will have to give Boy a 2/10.
I'm sorry I could not take this song seriously,
as hard as I tried.
It was just so funny to me.
Think whatever you want about JYP, but I don’t like him.
I think I probably would’ve liked the song
if JYP was replaced by a different male singer.
It’s not that the song was bad, I just could
not enjoy it because of JYP.
While I was listening to the song, I suddenly got Lay All Your Love On Me vibes, which is  a song from the movie Mamma Mia.
The verses of When We Disco just kind of reminded
me of the song, it’s probably just me though.
About the music video, I actually kinda liked
it, as much as I tried not to.
I like music video storylines so that was a plus.
I especially like when videos have references
to movies or anything pop culture really.
So let me wrap up this song by giving it a3/10.
I’m sorry Sunmi I love you.
Oh god where do I start with this song?
This should have absolutely never happened, and not necessarily because of the song itself, but the controversy surrounding this song.
I’m not gonna get into it in this video, but I encourage you to do your own research.
This song was very disrespectful to Hawaiians,
and I was just very disappointed that FNC  would do this.
Not surprised though because we know what
a terrible company they are after the whole AOA fiasco.
Now let me talk about the actual song.
At first I was kind of vibing to it, but now
I realize that it’s just really annoying.
I would feel bad even liking the song, so I’m glad I don't.
Please don’t take this as me hating on Cherry Bullet, I actually am a stan of them but I’ve  just lost a lot of interest in them due to this comeback.
The only aspect of the comeback I liked was
the music video.
It was really cute and I liked that every member had a different storyline or place that they were in.
In all honesty, I wish Cherry Bullet would’ve just skipped over a summer comeback and released a video game concept this time.
Aloha Oe gets a 3/10.
The chorus ruined it, sorry not sorry.
I liked every part of the song except the chorus.
And it wasn’t even an original instrumental
chorus, it was like the most basic you could go.
I’m not too mad at this though since it’s
just a pre-release, and their next song called Tiger Inside which will be released by the time this video comes out, is a bop.
They performed it months ago and I remember
liking it, so I’m excited for the music video.
Anyways, the music video was pretty cool but
literally Nct Dream and Nct 127 have already
done this race car concept or whatever it
is in 2020 so I am ready for a new concept SM!
100 will get a 4/10.
Ya know, I was really anticipating this comeback.
Whether I liked it or not would make or break
if I would get into Rocket Punch or not.
I have been watching this group from a distance
since their debut, and I’ve always been
somewhat interested, but I never found myself
with an urge to stan them.
Unfortunately after Juicy, I finally decided
that I will not be stanning them for the foreseeable future.
I don’t think Juicy is a terrible song,
and I still can’t really decide if I like
it not even though it’s been a month since
it came out.
It’s definitely catchy, I’ll give it that.
Something about Juicy turns me off though,
I can’t really pinpoint what exactly but
listening to the song just leaves me with
a weird feeling.
Bim Bam Bum is still their best song in my
opinion.
The music video seemed really low budget which is weird cause Woollim has money if I’m not mistaken.
I also listened to the mini album, but it’s
like I didn’t because I have no memory of a single song.
It was a very forgettable album in my opinion
and their previous two were much better.
Sorry Rocket Punch but Juicy gets a 4/10.
At first I didn’t think anything of this song.
But I quickly realized that it’s a really beautiful song.
It’s really nice to listen to and the music
video was so beautifully shot as well.
I heard that Taemin freestyled the whole dance which I’m not sure if that’s true but if it is that’s pretty amazing.
I don’t much to say on this one so I’ll
give it a 6/10 and move on.
Saturday has been getting hyped up on social media so much since this comeback that I had to check it out.
I mean, I would’ve checked it out anyways
because I like Saturday.
On first listen, I didn’t really like it.
I was pretty distracted by the quality of
the music video, because it was very low budget.
I was just disappointed by the video, but
don’t worry because now I think it’s really cute.
Now onto the song, I said I didn’t like
it at first but now I think it’s a super cute song.
Some parts can get a bit obnoxious and the
english phrases are a bit weird, but you know what?
I do not care, I don’t.
Dbdbdib or however you say it is a bop but
I can’t bring myself to put it any higher
on the list because I liked the other comebacks better.
I did bring it upon myself to learn the Saturday
members, and I am on the verge of stanning,
but whether I will actually do it or not is
up in the air.
I hope this isn’t their last comeback, as
their company is very low on money, but nonetheless,
this comeback was great and I will give it
a 6/10.
So Sejeong just dropped another solo song
out of nowhere and I wasn’t expecting much
because I haven’t liked any of her solo
stuff, which have all been ballads.
I’m not sure if this song would be considered
a ballad, but regardless I loved it.
It sounded so beautiful and is definitely a tear jerker.
It’s similar to Taemin’s 2 kids because
of the delicacy and elegance that both songs display.
My favorite part of the song was the bridge
which was all in English and that part just really hit hard.
The whole thing sounds like a song from a
movie, maybe a Disney one.
Whale gets a 6/10.
Jellyfish Revive Gugudan 2020 Challenge.
Ok so, I really enjoyed this comeback, though
it wasn’t anything original or ground breaking.
It’s just a nice summer song to listen to.
This comeback is not something that will stick
with me for a long time, and I already kind
of forgot about it until I had to get all
the August comebacks together for this video.
However, let me talk about the song 9lives for a minute, which I’m considering as part  of her comeback.
It was her original song from the competition show Good Girl, and she released a music video  for it too.
I strongly recommend that you watch it because
I was so blown away.
The dance performance was absolutely breathtaking
and so was the song.
The raw emotion in Hyolyn’s voice was extraordinary.
The song was all in English and she did such a good job with it.
So overall this comeback gets a 6/10.
So I’ve been getting into Oneus recently,
and I don’t think they’ve released a bad
title track so far, but I do think this one
is probably my least favorite of theirs.
It was just a bit forgettable but I did actually
enjoy it.
My favorite part is definitely the post chorus,
where they repeated the words “To Be Or Not To Be”.
And let me just say, THAT MUSIC VIDEO?!
It was AMAZING, especially the part towards
the end where the music stopped and they just
all got shot, I’ll skip to that part of
the video so it’s on the screen right now.
It was really intense and not what I was expecting at all.
I hope there were no little kids that got
traumatized watching that.
6/10 for To Be Or Not To Be.
If you guys know me you’d be just as surprised
as me that this song song is this high.
I feel like it’s common knowledge that I
am not the biggest fan of (G)i-dle, and I
know this song is pretty disliked by kpop
stans, but I was so surprised that I actually liked it.
My favorite part of the song was the pre-chorus
as well as Soyeon’s rap.
Usually I don’t really like her raps but
this one was actually really good.
I don’t know what it is about Dumdi Dumdi
that made me like it so much.
If you step back and look at it, it’s kind
of a bad song, but this happens to me sometimes
where I know a song is bad but I still like it.
This is the case with another song that is
higher on the list too.
So overall Dumdi Dumdi gets a 6/10.
I got into Rothy in the beginning of this
year and she is such a queen honestly.
I was so excited when she announced this comeback
because it’s been over a year since her last.
And then she announced that it would be a collab with Chanyeol from Exo and I was like ok Rothy get that clout!
The song is really calming and refreshing,
and Rothy looked soooo cute throughout the video.
If I’ll be honest though, if this song was
released by some other artist that I didn’t
really know very well, I probably would disregard it.
Anyways, Rothy is such an underrated soloist,
she has a very unique and pretty voice and
I hope she’ll grow bigger in the future.
Ocean View gets a 6/10.
Kindly ignore that I have given the last 7
comebacks a 6/10.
Stan Rothy.
Ok so, I’m really surprised I placed this
so high, but it’s what my heart was telling me to do.
I watched this during the premiere and my
emotions were all over the place on first listen.
I was happy, then confused, then disappointed,
then confused again.
In theory, the song is bad, when you take
into account the lyrics, the confusion of
what is actually the chorus part, and the instrumental is annoying and stays the same the whole time.
But, regardless of all of that, I still like
the song.
It’s for sure way way way better than How
You Like That in my opinion.
Ice Cream is cute to listen to if you can
try to forget the lyrics.
My favorite part was the ending chant for
sure.
I did find Lisa’s rap in the first verse annoying and unnecessary, and I want rapper Jennie back!!
Jisoo’s one line was also very cute, and
I wish she had gotten more.
Yeah I just really hope that I’ll like their
real comeback, but I know there’s rumors
going around that Cardi B’s gonna be in
it which I hope to God is not true, I am not a fan of her.
I think Blackpink should be done with collabs
for now, at least until the end of 2020.
Anyways, Ice Cream gets a 7/10.
I know this isn’t necessarily a comeback
but I wanted to include it.
If you want to hear my thoughts on Inception
you can watch my July comeback review video.
Anyways, Thanxx is way better than Inception
in my opinion.
It feels much more like an Ateez song, and
I’m sad it wasn’t the title track, but oh well.
The dance was kind of lame though, while the
Inception dance was great.
This is the first time I’ve been disappointed by an Ateez comeback so I hope that they didn’t peak with Wonderland and Answer.
Thanxx gets a 7/10.
I almost forgot to include this but I remembered
last minute and added it in here.
This was a Japanese comeback in case you don’t
keep up with Seventeen, and it was SEXY.
Oh my god it was so good.
Seventeen never ever disappoint, not one bad
title track thank you very much.
24 hours is so sensual and I am here for it.
The chorus dance move where it looks like
they’re about to take off their shirts but then they don’t?
Power move.
I missed dark concept Seventeen and they delivered
just what I needed.
So 24 hours will get a 7/10.
This is embarrassing of me but I didn’t
like Gunshot at first.
But a few days later I suddenly became obsessed
with it.
This song y’all, is so good.
It’s so powerful and so is the meaning,
which is about verbal abuse.
And then the breakdown towards the end is
also so cool.
I’m running out of adjectives to use whoops
sorry, but anyways Dumb Litty is Kard’s
only bad title track and I stand by that.
Also I decided to finally stan Kard after
this comeback.
I can’t think of anything else to really
say about this song, as I’ve been working
on this video for over a week now and my brain
is reaching its limits, but let’s move on
to the top 3 shall we?
You can probably guess what they are based
on what major comebacks I haven’t mentioned yet.
8/10 for the Gunshot comeback.
Never in a million years did I think a BTS
song would be in the top 3 of a comeback ranking video.
I am not an Army, I know I’m such a terrible
person, but I do actually enjoy listening
to select songs by them, and Dynamite is one
of them.
I found myself liking this song more and more
every day after it came out and I listened
to it so many times.
Some of the lyrics in the verses were a bit
cringey but that aspect didn’t take away
from the song at all, they were more funny
than cringey really.
The chorus is sooo good and I applaud BTS
for doing an all English song.
My new goal in life is to shine through the
city with a little funk and soul.
No but seriously this might be my favorite
BTS song ever, but I’m not sure.
Save Me has that coveted spot currently.
The boys just looked like were having so much
fun in the music video and that is really good to see.
8/10 for Dynamite.
Not Shy slander will not be tolerated in the
comments.
Itzy raise the bar every comeback and each time leave me more confused on what my favorite Itzy title track actually is.
I literally have no idea what the order would
be right now.
But seriously I love Not Shy so much.
First of all, it’s a bop.
It has that typical Itzy flavor but it’s
still quite different from their other title tracks.
The chorus is a bit obnoxious but I still love it.
I’m sure you’ve all heard this a bunch of times by now but Lia shined so much and I’m so happy for her.
My favorite part of the songs was definitely
the bridge and Ryujin’s rap was also great.
I’ve only heard negative stuff about the
music video, but I actually liked it.
I just didn’t like the styling, besides
the white outfits because those were beautiful.
It would’ve been nice if the last chorus
was a little different from the rest since
it was so repetitive but I’m not too mad
about that.
Overall Not Shy gets a 9/10.
Talented brilliant incredible amazing show
stopping spectacular never the same totally
unique completely not ever been done before.
Did I stutter?
Let’s walk through the song shall we?
So we start with Gahyeon showing off her pink
hair and her big, infectious smile.
Then Yoohyeon comes in with her verse, building
up the eeriness of the song.
Then, the best part of the song by FAR happens.
I cannot even begin to explain my reaction
when I first saw it.
Dami’s rap...
I have never gasped so loud.
For real the highlight of my week.
Anyways, then my bias Jiu sings her beautiful
verse.
Now when I say Jiu is my bias, that’s not
set in stone.
My Dreamcatcher bias has changed approximately
50 times, but for now it’s Jiu.
Ok, do I really need to go through the whole
song?
I really don’t need to go much further,
so I will just say Siyeon’s high notes were
one of the best of the year and Boca is my
new all time favorite Dreamctacher song.
My biggest takeaway from this is that we have
to save the angels because there are too many dying.
If you know you know.
#savetheangels2020.
Boca gets a 9.5/10.
So finally we have reached the end of the
video.
If you stayed until the end I truly appreciate
you and I hope you enjoyed.
August was probably my second least favorite
month for comebacks this year after January.
They were some great ones but a lot were just
lackluster.
For September, there’s a lot to look forward to.
I was most excited for CLC’s comeback, but that already happened and will be in my September review.
I’m also super excited for Fromis_9’s first comeback in over a year and also Purple Kiss’s debut.
I start school tomorrow so that means my uploads
will become less frequent but I think I’ll
try to upload every Sunday from now on, but no promises.
Thank you for watching and I’ll see you
in my next video!
Byeee.
