[Review] %% – APINK
After the release of their successful hit, I’m So Sick, which featured a change in image from their well-known cutesy style, APINK has returned with a brand new song, %%. While you may be tempted to pronounce it as ‘Percent Percent’, the actual pronunciation is ‘Eung Eung’ as when you slightly spin the percentage sign, you get ‘응응’. In other news related to APINK, they had their concert last night where they performed %% for the first time and Eunji had a solo comeback in the later parts of 2018.
%% is another complete changeup in their sound. It is probably their most sensual sounding song yet. The instrumental is very subtle. It is present but it doesn’t seem to be as noticeable as other girl-crush songs that we know of in KPOP, such as I’m So Sick. But I like that, as it forces the vocals to be the main attraction for the song. I thought their vocals were nice. Instead of going for a strong sound, their vocals sounded a lot lighter than usual, which goes extremely well with the subtle instrumentation I mentioned previously. The song itself is catchy and like my previous review, I can see the song growing on me. I really like the ‘Eung’ that features after each ‘Eung Eung‘ sung by the members. It sticks out for all the right reasons and gives a slight accent to the song. I think the song does lack that kick which could make this track a lot stronger and more profound. But over than that, I see this as another great song from APINK.
For a girl group named APINK, I think this is one of the few videos which feature pink as the main colour. There also seems to be this hazy look hanging over the video, which I guess is their way of doing something mysterious. Anyway, the video seems to be showing the members collecting ingredients for a potion of some kind, which was later shown to create a heart for their ‘man’, represented by the floating tuxedo. This goes well with the lyrics to the song. I liked their close up shots and the post-production editing on the video looked cool.
The choreography was awesome. I really liked the introductory dance they had at the start. They seemed to match the moves to the subtle nature of the song but they did it which attitude, so their moves looked much stronger as a whole. Once again, I need to wait until I see a full performance to be sure,
Song – 8/10
Music Video – 9/10
Performance – 8/10
Overall Rating – 8.3/10
The Bias List // K-Pop Reviews & Discussion
Apink have never been out of the spotlight for long in Korea, but they enjoyed an unexpected bump last summer with the ear-catching I’m So Sick. Heading in an edgier dance direction turned out to be a boon for the girls, so it’s no surprise that new single %% (응응) once again enlists production team Black Eyed Pilseung for an atmospheric, synth-fueled comeback. But while the song takes many of its cues from Sick’s template, it can’t quite match the effortless appeal of its successor.
That isn’t to say that %% is in any way a failure. Its primary job is to maintain and build upon Apink’s new sound, and it certainly accomplishes the task. Opening with a brief distorted vocal sample that becomes one of its signature hooks, the instrumental quickly rushes into a swirling synth arpeggio that previews the standout pre-chorus that is yet to come. Like I‘m So Sick, the instrumental choices are spot-on, and quickly establish an ultra-cool tone that mixes the retro with the modern.
If %% faces any obstacle, it’s in the form of a vague chorus. Not every pop song has to be hit-you-over-the-head catchy to be a success, but %% could’ve done with a stickier hook at its core. What we get is breezy and refined, but not as memorable as the best Apink title tracks. Luckily, the song’s endlessly evocative atmosphere helps to compensate. Around every corner are wisps of robust background harmonies, fitful shifts in percussion and splashes of sophisticated synths. That’s enough to get %% across the finish line, and should maintain the momentum the girls began to harness last year.

Apink Know What They Want From a Man On Bouncy New Track: Listen
K-pop girl group Apink celebrated the first Monday of 2019 with the release of their eighth EP Percent, fronted by the single “%% (Eung Eung).”
A lush, ‘80s-influenced dance track, “%% (Eung Eung)” is guided by fizzy snyths, snapping beats, and slapping percussion as the members sing about the type of person one should love. “You’re shining/ You look good on the outside/ It’s in vain/ That is not enough baby/ It’s important to be warm-hearted/ I think it has to be someone like that,” they declare as bright synths speed up towards the clapping melody of the chorus.
The song’s English title refers to the Korean phrase “??,” typically translated to “yes,” “okay,” or “uh huh.” It is one of several repeated phrases that appears throughout the song’s verses, and when turned on its side appears like a pair of percent signs.

The accompanying music video for the new track sees the women of Apink appear on a dark and stormy night at a “Pink Factory” as they assemble a variety of objects, ranging from vinyl lips to a bejeweled gun. It ends with them throwing the items into a bright pink brew, which they then use to soak a heart that they use to raise a man’s suit to life. All the while, they switch off between soft pink outfits and a variety of dramatic, often sequinned, looks as they perform the alluring choreography.
Apink’s latest single follows last July’s “I’m So Sick.” The new song continues the sonic shift Apink showcased in the prior one, as the group matures away from the angelic, girlish sounds they became known for in the early years of their career to showcase a more charismatic, compelling side to themselves.
During a press conference in Seoul today (Jan. 7), the group reportedly described their exploration of a new style of music that fits into their overall image “is APink’s homework” while determining its path moving forward. The act also said that there was a connection between the two tracks. “The lyrics in ‘I’m So Sick’ finally declared an end to an estranged lover, and in ‘%%,’ the lyrics say ‘I have been there and I will not give in (to loneliness) until I find the right man I want,’” said Namjoo, according to Yonhap.
Along with the single, Percent features five other tracks, including the new jack swing-inspired “Enough,” which features lyrics written by Chorong.
Apink released their first song “I Don’t Know” in 2011 and has regularly topped charts in South Korea since then with their charming brand of sweet pop music. Last year’s One & Six EP, the group’s 7th, peaked at No. 11 on the World Albums chart dated July 14.
Watch the music video for Apink’s “%% (Eung Eung)” below.
The Singles Jukebox
Is the Pink Factory open for field trips? Asking for a friend.
Joshua Minsoo Kim: Well, we can thank Black Eyed Pilseung and Jeon Goon for the two best K-pop singles of the year thus far, but could we expect anything less from the people behind some of the best K-pop songs of the past ten years? “%% (Eung Eung)” finds Apink doubling down on their new sound, as established by the success of “I’m So Sick,” and the result is such expertly-crafted synthpop that Apink feel like a new force to be reckoned with. Part of that comes with how little pussyfooting happens here — the girls are lonely, but they don’t linger on that feeling for long. Instead, they put an offer on the table for suitors to approach, but they never let you believe that they’ll settle for anyone beneath their standards. The beat drop in the pre-chorus bolsters their assertive tone, but it’s the lighter chorus that sounds more intimidating. The vocal melody has an underlying sadness, but the teeth-baring grin and poise of “If you’re not confident, goodbye” make clear their no-bullshit attitude. Synths dance around the track as if to elucidate the girls’ hypnotizing charm, but they’re also there to tease your incompetence.
[8]Thomas Inskeep: Linn drums and “pew! pew!”ing synths ping off each other, while the ladies of Apink do their thing and keep up with the tempo, elevated like my heartbeat when I hear pop music this expertly crafted. If the Spice Girls had appeared a decade earlier, they’d have tried to make a record as sublime as “%%.”
[9]Iris Xie: My impression of this song is that if an international heist group managed to kidnap Grimes in order to train an AI machine on her composition style and inspirations, but then the heist group suddenly decided they wanted very loudly sung choruses…the result would be this song. The start is promising. Some tricky xylophone-sounding synths that riff off the common trope of a ticking clock White Rabbit-style are combined with cooing whisper vocals, and it starts off like a promising season 2 opener (Steven Universe and Hilda mashup, maybe?). But then it immediately drops off into several melody lines that don’t meld with the intriguing synth backdrops, and it ends up sounding more like an auditory stutter that is trying to match the frantic kick drums in the background. Combined with the refrain being cute and cheerleader-y with some sorrowful-sounding verses… it’s a bit confusing. It’s not a boring song, but this sounds more like a mash-up than anything that brings out the qualities of the vocal track or the instrumentals, or even fully takes advantage of the potentially intriguing dissonances that could occur. Due to this, I can’t wait to see what APINK will cook up next, honestly. Sometimes confusing songs are worth playing on repeat.
[6]Juana Giaimo: Apink keeps the energy high throughout the whole song. Their delicate voices are the stars, but they are enhanced by details that make “%%” sound unique like the keyboards which echo the vocal melody in the prechorus, and the instruments going silent for just an instant, followed by a drum that comes just before the “Eung eung” so that this part has an explosive effect.
[7]Anjy Ou: My grandma tells me to smile sweetly whenever declining to give my number to an admirer — ostensibly to be polite but more likely because it throws them off. This song kind of feels like the k-pop version of that. It makes you tilt your head to the side a bit: buttery synths run over stuttering, insistent drums, snaps and handclaps; blink and you’re in a different place musically and wondering how you got there. Bomi’s “real recognize real, truly” and Namjoo’s “thank you, but sorry” are dismissals delivered sweetly but somehow more devastating for it. “I won’t settle for less than amazing so nod your head if you think you’re worthy of me” is not a message that goes down well with the general public when coming from women, but it’s packaged enticingly so that it won’t make too many waves — and it gets an emphatic “%%” from me.
[7]Jessica Doyle: The backing, smooth and lush, and the vocals, high enough to risk sounding shrill, absolutely do not go together. (Further complicating things: Namjoo doesn’t sound shrill, and the result is that for the second straight single I can barely hear her.) Fortunately this is all in service of a song about standoffish ambivalence, so the flip from smooth synthpop to abrasive vocals makes sense. From Apink in particular it makes even more sense: this being the group who has been known for years for the contrast between the cutesy concepts and the barely-concealed (normal-natural-human-adult-woman) tensions for various members and the group as a whole. From a brand-new group I might find those distorted eung eung grunts off-putting, but from this one it feels challenging.
[6]Alfred Soto: The tectonics of “%%” fascinate me: synths that flicker, vanish, loom large, servicing a song whose lyrics on first glance address erotic hesitation. The faint drums ‘n’ bass lilt of the percussion serves that ambivalence. Giving it a pulse is Apink, who don’t confuse the projection of ambivalence with non-alignment.
[7]Ramzi Awn: “%% (Eung Eung)” features the kind of songwriting that is hyperfocused on the melodic arch to a fault. Melody has always been one of the most important elements of a pop song, but when it leaves little room for drama as a result, the output suffers no matter how tight the tune is. A “less is more” approach to stringing notes together would relieve Apink of the pressure of finding new vocal twists and turns in ever bar and allow for more surprises for the listener. A little open space wouldn’t hurt either.

Apink’s “%% (Eung Eung)” is a Pink Paradise — The Kraze
The entire music video is dripping in pink goodness. All of the girls look stunning, draped in sequins, lace, and pearls. The visuals make up for the somewhat confusing melody. After their summer smash hit “I’m so sick,” which successfully veered away from Apink’s predictable cute concept, the expectations were high for what they could come up with next. “%%” can take a few listens to warm up to, but it showcases the group’s ability to tackle out-of-the-box concepts and to recreate their sound at the same time. The ‘80s-esque electropop track has interesting beat changes, a more even distribution of vocals (as opposed to “I’m so sick”), and that distorted “eung eung” is something to look forward to every time the chorus comes around. For a group of Apink’s age, however, the dance break could’ve been utilized better in creating a more energetic choreography.
Six tracks is a strong length to have each one stand out, which makes PERCENT a solid mini-album. Second track “Hug me” utilizes the same beat as Red Velvet’s “Automatic,” emulating that same ‘90s R&B sentimentality. It’s laced with a sincerity reflected through their vocals, particularly Bomi’s tone. Immediately after is the fun “What are you doing?” A definite highlight on the album, the verses burst into a groovy pop chorus that flirts with electronic piano chords. The refreshingly light track is a tall glass of lemonade, and the bridge erupts into an explosive electronic instrumental. To continue the retro vibes, “Push & Pull” is reminiscent of upbeat pop concepts tackled by pop giants AOA and Girls’ Generation. It’s definitely a step outside of Apink’s style, but the listener is transported back to 2012-2014, when several songs sounded like this. However, the girls redeem themselves with the funky “Enough.” The fifth track oozes a flirtatious confidence, and the real instruments make the track feel organic—as if it were a live studio session. “Memories” wraps it all up; for some reason, the beautiful harmonizations are pushed to the back, but the ballad is still strong enough to get the listener to appreciate both the vocals and structure of the song.
“%% (Eung Eung)” could be considered a risk for Apink, but PERCENT is so well-rounded that the slightly odd title track fits right where it should. It’s heartwarming and humbling to see senior groups like the girl group continue to branch out and experiment with their sounds. And the success they’ve found in doing so is well deserved.
“%%” Title Score: 7.4/10

✨song + mv review
hello pandas! :two_hearts: :panda_face:
the long awaited apink comeback has finally come. after a few months that seemed like ages, they are back with their %% album.
before i get in depth with the song i’d recommend you watch the music video;-
– :sparkles: :two_hearts:
—— :sparkles: :panda_face: :sparkles: :panda_face: ——
aesthetics + mv
we all know aesthetics play a big role in a music video– it’s essentially what sets the mood and illustrates the concept. there are alot of pastel colours, in particular pink which adds a cute vibe despite being one of their more mature songs.
in many of the scenes, the girls are also wearing regal outfits which adds to the maturity of the song. this aspect is really current, so i believe the director did very well.
i have also taken a liking to the several % references. many artists’ title tracks and album names are easy to confuse so the constant referencing mad it a lot simpler.
—— :sparkles: :panda_face: :sparkles: :panda_face: ——
distributions
without looking it up, it’s evident that naeun has finally had her chance to show off her angelic vocals, we have all long awaited that. it’s such a relief she got a lot more lines as she got very little in other songs. it’s a positive shock that after eunji, naeun has the second most lines.
of course not everybody can be happy with line distributions. apink’s lead singer- namjoo- has got the least lines. i was left in confusion.. yall really did my girl dirty :/
as for screen time, naeun yet again is very ahead of the other girls which i guess makes sense as she is the visual.
for reference the line distribution is;-
-hayoung 26.8%
– eunji 32.4%
– namjoo 17.6%
– chorong 22.9%
– bomi 22.3%
– naeun 30.4%
—— :sparkles: :panda_face: :sparkles: :panda_face: ——
visuals
apink are known for their stunning visuals and i can tell you that they will definitely still keep up the reputation of being exceptionally beautiful.
chorong has always been the soft member and the pink hair has made her even more adorable. pandas have gone crazy in love with her new look and i don’t even blame them
honestly.. i really loved eunji’s last look in I’m So Sick but i believe she equally pulls off her new look, short black hair.
bomi’s long bangs give off a soft look which suits her so well!! it’s true she pulls off everything.
namjoo has had a perm/ curled her hair which adds to her sexy vibe- it suits her perfectly.
hayoung’s red hair brings about an elegance and sophistication to her looks which has caused her beauty to blind me.
to put it bluntly, nothing drastic has really changed about naeun’s looks. but nevertheless she’s still a new naeun as she has received the opportunity to showcase another charm, her vocals.
whether subtle or obvious, the girls look amazing and it suits the concept beautifully.
—— :sparkles: :panda_face: :sparkles: :panda_face: ——
vocals + dance
how many times can i say it.. i am so shocked yet overjoyed that naeun finally got the chance to shine for her vocals. she has proved to everyone who underestimated her that she is not just a pretty face but has a ton of talent too.
hayoung has snapped in the dance break- i did not see that coming but i’m happy it happened. i also love how her angelic voice was the one to begin the song.
eunji yet again stuns us with her powerful yet beautiful voice. i also love how her dancing is continuously improving over the years, it’s evident she’s been working hard.
i was disappointed about namjoo’s lines but it doesn’t mean her strong vocals didn’t leave an impact. namjoo never disappoints with her vocals. what i also appreciate about namjoo is how versatile she is. after a second round of a more mature concept, she fits the vibe perfectly just as she did with the cuter concepts.
bomi suited the choreography perfectly and was breathtaking at the dance shots. over the years she has shown her dance talent and it’s been highlighted perfectly in this era. i also loved her sweet vocals in this song!
the perfect way to describe chorong’s voice in this song is angelic. like bomi, she has a sweet voice but it leaves a huge impact. it suited this upbeat song so well.
overall i’m so grateful for how well their talents have been showcased from choices within the choreography to lines, i think it really worked for apink.

lyrics
When the dark night comes
My heart is pounding
Melancholy the feeling I don’t hate
Cool cool cool
I’m like an ice cream
On the outside I’m colorful and pretty
But a little cold, yeah
If you’re ordinary
You can’t see who I am
Someone real recognizes
What’s real
I’m difficult not to look easy
It’s in vain
That is not enough baby
Tickling tickling the person who
Makes me fret myself first
I think it has to be someone like that
I’ll be happy
Make me overwhelmed by delight
If you’re not confident
Goodbye
The sweet words
Without sincerity
Thank you but sorry oh oh
Will you answer me? %%
Please come out in
The blink of an eye
It can’t be anyone %%
Please come out
While I’m sleeping %%
It’s cool the music in the
Night streets boom boom boom
It’s so cool looking out
Of the window view view view
Each time, I’m overwhelmed
By temptation
Even when I’m swayed
But no no no no
It’s a perfect picture
That’s who I am
I’m waiting for a
Perfect frame really
You’re shining
You look good on the outside
It’s in vain
That is not enough baby
It’s important to
Be warm-hearted
I think it has to be
Someone like that
I’ll be happy
Make me overwhelmed by delight
If you’re not confident
Goodbye
The sweet words
Without sincerity
Thank you but sorry ooh ooh
Will you answer me? %%
Please come out in
The blink of an eye
It can’t be anyone %%
Please come out
While I’m sleeping
%%
Even if I tried many times
It was so hard
Everything was the same
I said I won’t do it again
But I’m lonely
I want to lean on you again
You don’t know who I am
Only by the way I look
You’re trying to
Come closer to me
Will you answer me? %%
Please come out in
The blink of an eye
It can’t be anyone %%
Please come out
While I’m sleeping

Apink – ‘Horn’ review: gorgeous, lovesick daydreams take flight
In the two years since ‘Look’, many things have changed for Apink, not the least being Na-eun’s decision to leave Play M Entertainment (now IST Entertainment). Yet, the girl group seem just as comfortable as they’ve always been on their comeback album, curiously named ‘Horn’. But it’s actually an apt metaphor for their return as six – much like the cornucopia of ancient Greece and Rome (cornu meaning horn and copia meaning abundance in Latin), this 11-track collection overflows with copious amounts of aphrodisiacal daydreams, lovelorn nightmares and everything else in between.
Above all, ‘Horn’ is a delicate expansion of Apink’s mature, adult sound as they slip back into their roles as emotionally perceptive lovers. The girl group amplify the sultry, dark synth-pop melodies found on their post-reinvention hits, such as ‘I’m So Sick’, ‘Dumhdurum’ and ‘Eung Eung’. It unfolds best through the album’s title track, ‘Dilemma’ – where they vocalise the all-consuming yearning for a lover’s return, despite a one-sided romance.
“It’s okay even if the flame died out, oh / It’s okay to pretend that it’s love,” they bargain without care for any reason. “I don’t care if I get hurt / It’ll hurt more if I’m no longer in your mind.” The moody lyrics are underlined by a synth that seesaws, but are careful to never overpower the song’s true jewel: Apink’s gentle, forlorn voices. Leave it to hitmaker duo Black Eyed Pilseung (who also worked on Apink’s last three comebacks) to produce a heartbreak anthem as sleek and sharp as this.
Advertisement
The sparkle and sheen of ‘Horn’ never dulls even as we approach the rest of the record as Apink treat listeners to a plethora of genres and offerings, the most striking of which is ‘Red Carpet’. This confident anthem is lifted to stratospheric heights by its tinges of retro funk and delicately contrasted by a dirty bass line. It’s so good that the group return to this old-school magic later on the debonair ‘Free & Love’, with lyrics by Chorong, and it’s just as good the second time around.
Wedged between the duo is the equally funky and surprisingly introspective ‘Single Rider’ – if not as energetic – which touches on the spectre of hesitancy that follows us all as we step foot into different stages of our lives, never really dissipating even with age. It’s defined by a catchy, bubbling, bouncy synthline that, just like said shadow, is hard to shake.
On the other side of the retro spectrum is ‘Holy Moly’, which immerses itself shoulder-deep in dreamy city-pop. Its twinkling instrumentation frames the song’s infectiously lovesick lyricism – co-penned by Na-eun – delicately and precisely. The record even makes space for lo-fi chillwave on ‘Just Like That’; Namjoo’s lyricism takes flight as she captures the warmth of a first love, with vignettes of “the scent of falling flowers” and “the sunlight shining through the clouds”.
In what by now seems like a whirlwind trip through the decades, Apink arrive in the 2000s with two offerings. ‘My Oh My’ recalls early-aughts teen pop, with twinkling synths and a floaty, layered vocal mix. On the flip side, Chorong, Eunji and Namjoo safeguard their hearts on the fiesty ‘Nothing’, its buoyant piano-laden tempo complimenting their “better off” attitude. Both tracks simply hit all the right notes.
Advertisement
The duds on ‘Horn’ are few, but the prosaic ‘Dream’ and ‘Trip’ stand out for all the wrong reasons in a sea of great. Both are your obligatory, and more importantly uninspired, pop ballads – a phenomenon that, for better or worse, appears on most K-pop albums, old and new. While ‘Dream’ highlights Eun-ji’s lyric-writing ability, the production itself falls flat and brings nothing new to the table. Meanwhile, the inclusion of the nearly one-year-old ‘Thank You’ feels impersonal; perhaps it would have come across more sincere if it were a fresh track that better reflects Apink’s current sentiments towards Pink Pandas (the name of their official fanbase).
Despite flirting with a miscellany of soundscapes, ‘Horn’ never strays from Apink’s core: the ways they convey the richness of the human emotion. It’s remarkable how the group navigate the songs on ‘Horn’ with ease, highlighting the overarching motifs of love and its trials, tribulations and celebrations. As the group near their 11th anniversary, ‘Horn’ could not have come at a better time – or in more grandiose fashion – letting the K-pop world know Apink are back and here to stay.
