In a distressed frame (top and bottom bars only, red to blue left to right gradient), three screenshots. Leftmost, a young Korean woman (soloist Lee Youngji) in a hockey referree's outfit in the middle of an active game. In the center, three young Korean men (boy group Big Ocean), armed, left to right, with a bow, a sword, and a large flag/banner, are charging towards the screen while a large wave breaks behind them. Rightmost, a Korean woman (soloist YOUNHA) stands at a mic and electric keyboard, playing and singing, in an abandoned-ish industrial space. Title text reads Midweek New Music Roundup. Bottom text reads February 25th - March 4th.


This week has been ... kind of a lot, actually. I wasn't sure I was going to make it through the whole list at a couple points, but in the end, I prevailed! Just in time to start the whole process over again, but, you know... πŸ˜…

It's a long list this week, covering everything from dance pop and R&B to hiphop and alt rock. There's the debut of (sub)unit QQQ, the pre-debut of new boyband V01D, another collab between NMIXX and Pabllo Vittar, ENHYPEN spoiling their fans a little, a few OSTs, and a whole lot more. Want to get your dance on? There's comebacks from EVERGLOW and NOWZ to potentially feed the urge. Feeling the urge for some folk rock? Maybe Joo Yeahin or Kim Sungkyu have what you need. Looking for the freshest hiphop? Try the flows of BassHammer or TUNEXX. Need a theraputic cry? Hunt down the hanky warnings. Not sure what you want? Meander the list in whatever way feels right to you or pop on down into the comments to ask for suggestions!

So many good videos this week, I struggled to narrow down my picks, so we used the triple banner to give slots to Lee Youngji (left), Big Ocean (center), and YOUNHA (right), with my additional picks noted by πŸ’š note: I'm aware that most often I put a red flag on videos that use/are suspected of using genslop, but that's actually not the case this week.
