and with that, let's go positives first!! i am in love with this kind of k-pop concept and i think everything abt is cute!! the visuals of it all is great, the teasers also had me going "oohh" even though i'm not a stan. also everyone involved sounded great in the song!!
now my gripes with it: the song is blegh. all the technical stuff like mixing is ok tho??
it's obvious they only added selena in for extra traction in this song. am i saying she doesn't deserve to be in the song? no, she did fine. but would the song be different

without her? no. the lines could've easily been to jisoo and rosé and line distribution would've been fairer.
now back to the actual song?? like.. there is no hook. the entire time i was waiting for the part that's supposed to get stuck in my head but it wasn't there???

you can argue that it's the that ice cream chilling thing, but it doesn't sound strong enough. i was expecting it to lead up to something else beetter, a beat drop with some nice stuff going on, but we didn't get that!! and i'm sad!! i was genuinely excited for this release ://
you can also argue the song is meant to be chill, but there are so many better ways to make catchy chill songs. but like, everything just felt weak. like the instrumental was so weak, there are bits you can pick up that hint to better production, but We Didn't get That.
anyway what i'm saying is this song could have been way better. like... they really hyped us up with the visuals and shit but we didn't get what should have been a banger <///3
i streamed this song like multiple times btw bc sometimes listening to smth over and over is what reveals its appeal but it was. hopeless... i helped in streaming tho i listened to this like 7 times</3
