QWER and Algorithm’s Blossom: New Mini Album Release
The band QWER released its second mini album Algorithm’s Blossom on September 23. This new album follows their first mini album MANITO, which they released in April. The title track, “My Name is Malguem,” evokes the feeling of reading a diary with its emotional lines. According to their agency, Tamago Production, the song delivers a hopeful message of overcoming pain and moving forward.
QWER Brings Emotion to Algorithm’s Blossom Music Video
The sound of piano and guitar blends harmoniously in this album. QWER’s energetic yet lyrical band sound delivers a positive vibe. Soyeon of (G)I-DLE participated in writing, composing, and arranging the title track. The music video, released alongside the album, tells a story of accepting and growing from personal struggles. It is set in a youthful movie tone, featuring the emotional expressions of the four members, with flowers as a central motif.
Eight Tracks Define QWER Journey in Algorithm’s Blossom
Algorithm’s Blossom includes eight songs. The introduction, INTRO, sets the stage for QWER’s new narrative. Fake Idol conveys a strong will to deliver sincerity through music despite a cold reality. Saranghaja sends a candid message of love, while Dalligi, a duet by Chodan and Magenta, offers a dreamy vibe. Annyeong, Naeui Seulpeum provides comfort to those who have endured difficult times. In Meori, QWER expresses a desire for their message to reach everyone. The album concludes with OUTRO, representing QWER’s renewed ambitions.
Positive Reception from the Korean Community
The response from Korean online communities to Algorithm’s Blossom has been overwhelmingly positive. Many users of MLBPARK noted the album exceeded their expectations, despite concerns it might not surpass their previous song, Gominjungdok. Some even felt the new album was better suited for repeated listening. Fans of rock music are expected to appreciate this album.
Music Show Appearances and the Importance of Promotion
Many fans have noted that QWER has never performed on a music show, calling for the band’s participation in such programs. Though some argue that fewer people watch music shows nowadays, others emphasize their significance. Music show performances often result in fan-uploaded fancams on YouTube, which attract international fans. These shows serve as important gateways for QWER to gain global recognition. However, performing on music shows requires a financial investment from their agency, Tamago Production. This investment also helps build long-term relationships with broadcasting stations. Fans hope Tamago Production makes a wise decision regarding QWER’s promotion.
