So, [instagram.com profile] sashagee is a big K-pop fan. She listens to it a lot at home, she's gotten Laila into it--Laila will random run around singing "Drama-ma-ma, drama-ma-ma, girls in back, drama-ma-ma" or ask for "Blue hair" or for "pretty dresses." She took me to see Sun-mi back in 2022. And it's nice to listen to and I don't have having it on in the background, but if I were picking out music for myself, I'd never think of K-pop. Until yesterday, when I came out of the bathroom and [instagram.com profile] sashagee had a song on and I said "æspa did a cover of 'Korobeiniki'?" and [instagram.com profile] sashagee said that she had another song on and Laila had seen another thumbnail on Youtube and demanded that song next, and:


While listening to it, I realized two things that makes this different than most of the K-pop [instagram.com profile] sashagee plays around the house. The first is that it's all in English emoji V smile The second is that it's very synthwavy, especially the chorus--you could easily see an instrumental version of the song as a "Tetris Theme (Synthwave Remix)" somewhere on Youtube, and indeed apparently said instrumental version does appear over the credits of the recent Tetris.

Just looked up a couple synthwave remixes and this song sounds better than them, actually. Emoji Kirby hands in front of face
