Listening Party: CHAEYOUNG 'LIL FANTASY vol.1' 1st Album

Oh I'm in LOVE with her?

Comments

i also cannot pick a favorite song and i quite frankly refuse to

ditto

PD this album is just everything to me. as a chaeyoung ult and someone who fucking LOVES that indie/artsy sound and someone who loves k-indie in particular (my goat sumin gets a feature on this album (in your favorite song ribbons), who i mentioned you should listen to during one of your livestreams because she feels so unbelievably down your alley; specifically her miniseries collabs with producer slom but her stuff outside of those 2 projects is incredible as well) it was just a mix of everything that i love. i will be repeating this album until i die, play it at my funeral, and bury me with the vinyl of the album. if i could inject music into my veins, i want this album to be what's injected. i could go on about how amazing and incredible this album is sonically, conceptually, artistically, and the fact she was lead lyricist, composer, and arranger for almost every song is just the cherry on top. i had such high hopes for this album and chaeyoung still managed to blow me away. if it was possible id want a new chaeyoung album every year bc she makes things so out of the norm for k-pop and everytime she absolutely kills it. chaeyoung i fucking love you and your artistry please never stop being yourself in your music. (p.s. i think you will absolutely love chaeyoung's solo off the twice 10 year anniversary album too it also feels so you even after you mentioned you loved just the snippet that was released for it)

i’m convinced ribbons, downpour, and bf is the best 3 track run i’ll hear all year. you can tell she pulled a lot of inspo from artists like clairo and the marias who i looove!!! there’s so much thought and passion imbued into this whole project from sound and lyrics to visual direction. it’s definitely a very special project in kpop - i wonder if it’ll create impact on other idol’s solo projects as a result. i had no idea this was available on vinyl so thank you for mentioning that since i will also be purchasing haha :)

Gosh, I love this album so so much. It's currently set as my morning alarm. Waking up to Avocado every morning is awesome.

Chae and Yves collab would go hard (and also i think they'd be a cute couple but that's neither here nor there lol). I pre-ordered the LP version of this, so I made myself wait until that arrived to listen to the album. My first experience with each song was on vinyl, and that was a great choice. Incredible album, everything I wanted from Chae but never dreamed of hoping we would actually get.

Now curious of what Volume 2 would sound like. But we have murmurs of a Momo solo debut and a Jihyo 2nd album first 🥰🥰

i simply can’t overlook that cheeky double entendre you said towards the end PD, ikyk what i’m referring to and i was dyinggg 😭

I’d recommend (doesn’t have to be for reaction, even if just on your own) Chaeyoung’s hour long Bokos interview, she talks her top 5 albums and discusses a lot of her process of making her solo debut https://youtu.be/6Rj8X_gNz_M?si=PsuGWCcYLPoO15hu

Chaeyoung isn’t the first active female idol of the big 3, at her level of success, to get tattoo , but I think she still is the most prominent bc of TWICE image at the time, and her pieces are the BIGGEST and most visible, she might have most in sheer numbers, even people like taeyeon got tattoos but a lot of small on the hand or hidden ones, Hyuna was bashed for getting hers but she also had the backing of “baddie” image, Hyolyn I’d say is second to Chaeyoung in the huge piece/most visible on her stomach which sistar and her now as solo had to get around with outfits constantly wear the tape on live shows, but besides that one hyolyn doesn’t have as many as Chae so I think she still holds the record; I LOVED WHEN CHAE CHOPPED HER HAIR it was so sick that she was making headlines and even at the time everyone knew the company scolded her and she did it on her own—I think we could just clearly tell she really needed that at the time was overlapping with the busiest times of their careers when she was still barely an adult and a lot of the group was experiencing burnout, she got a lot of new fans through this simple yet brave act of expression, I could see it being totally liberating to make a choice of independence and have control over with such a demanding career

Liv

Ribbons is definitely the fav, even with the lyrics in still a little vague on the meaning, I’d love to hear the making behind on this song bc it feels like there’s this bitter anger built up in the song, also I hope Sumin and Jibin get another chance to collab it’s so lit 😭

Liv

Downpour reminds of a tame impala type sound.

Angela Hester

Completely agree with your interpretation on Girl. She has a live performance of it on YouTube, which is very good. Very sweet. You should check it out if you haven’t seen it.

Angela Hester

I think your interpretation of Girl aligns with the most common interpretation. I also think it is very queer coded. I have also see people using it to edit their sapphic ships to this song. Ribbons is also my fav. Tied with Avocado.

Amity

I need and Chaeyoung + Yves collab so bad 😭

Y L

Downpour def my fave

ceej
