Music Monday|Everglow — LA DI DA
Hey BAYOG Fam!~ I just had to throw this extra Music Monday post in. Everglow dropped recently dropped their track/MV “LA DI DA”. I just had to post it because the whole crew has been enjoying it~ I’ll make it quick though (for real).
So this post’s artist is Everglow (에버글로우). They’re a K-Pop girl group under Yuehua Entertainment, a Chinese multinational entertainment group based in Beijing. Yuehua has partnership with some big name entertainment companies in K-Pop, including: Pledis Entertainment (which has recently been acquired by Big Hit), Starship Entertainment, and SM Entertainment. Everglow debuted in March 2019. The member line up consists of: E:U, Sihyeon, Mia, Onda, Aisha, and Yiren. Honestly, I don’t know much about them. Again, they one of the new groups. I’m an old soul who was super invested into K-Pop during the second generation era, and I’ve only just somewhat got a grasp of third generation idols after taking a break for a while. All I know is Everglow got some songs that really slap. My favorite is [DUN DUN]. Some other great tracks are [Bon Bon Chocolat] and [Adios].
EP: -77.82X-78.29
Genre: K-Pop, Synth Pop, Electropop, EDM, Retro, Pop
Release: 2020
Language: Korean
About a week ago (September 21, 2020), Everglow dropped their new EP -77.82X-78.29. They also dropped the MV for their title track, “LA DI DA”. It’s a retro-pop song with some heavy 80’s synth-pop to it. It was pretty surprising. Of course, all their previous hits have been electropop/EDM tracks. However, those previous tracks were more of the louder and harder kind of EDM genres like hardstyle. This retro sound was unexpected and kind of threw me off. However, I liked it. It was nice to see them try to switch it up. I know Marc and Jess/Jae (Marc’s Jess) really liked it. I think Lauren really loved this track too~ Admittedly, I personally like “DUN DUN” better. However, I can enjoy and appreciate this track. Retro kind of sounds are hella in too. I’d say this is one of my more favorite upbeat retro-esque tracks.
You can find “LA DI DA” and the -77.82X-78.29 EP on Spotify, here:

LA DI DA MV
The aesthetics remind me of like some dark kind of comic? Or something like Sin City? Admittedly, I’ve never watched Sin City, however, it’s that kind of aesthetic. There are alot of black, white, gray, and dark kind of tones. However, there are some pops of color, like red. There are also some scenes with more pops of color from neon signs and accessory pieces. There’s also a dance break down with a more retro 80s aesthetic to match the song. Is it my favorite MV? Not really, but it’s not bad. It’s got it’s interesting elements, it’s just not for me is all.
As for the choreo, it’s not my favorite choreo, but it’s good and fun~ It’s very tutting and vogue heavy~ I think… Don’t quote me on that… I’m not that knowledgeable about dancing… Anyways, it seems that the choreo is by Haejun and Tina Boo of 1MILLION Dance Studios, which has done choreography for countless K-Pop hits.
Anyway, that’s it y’all. I told you it’d be a quick and simple post~ Are y’all fans of Everglow? Have you heard this track before? What did you think? What’s your favorite Everglow track? Also, let me know if you have any music recommendations for me to check out! Stay safe and have a wonderful day fam!~

BLACK LIVES MATTER
AS A GROUP OF BIPOC, BAYOG strongly stands with Black Lives Matter. We are all too familiar with the racism that we, our friends, and family have faced on a daily basis. Every life is precious. However, as BIPOC, we also recognize that black people are a group of people that face extreme racism and at a higher risk for their safety. We’ve individually done several donations. Of course, donations to support the cause and support change isn’t the only thing needed. Support for the cause and change also requires conversation and understanding. Make sure to have those conversations. Please remember to be an active supporter, be it through donations, sharing information, and/or conversations and speaking up.
If you can, please consider donating. I’ve donated more than once as well. For one of my donations, I donated through the BTS ARMY x BLM project. I recommend that if you’re unsure of where to donate. This is because the donation will be split amongst several different non-profit organizations. Of course, you can also choose a specific organization(s) if you wish as well. You can find that [HERE].

Stay strong. Fight racism, brutality, injustice, and bullshit. Don’t lose sight of the goal. We’re witnessing and being a part of history. Be allies and make sure change happens. Once again, BLACK LIVES MATTER.
