bestfrenjun: doyoung holding a super 8 by the ocean in from home (dy from home)

tracklist )

this album released on a day i booked off for vacation, coinciding with the cottage weekend i had with my friends. that whole ordeal was a disaster but the silver-lining: i brought a bluetooth speaker and played this album while cooking longganisa on saturday morning. also slipped nct dream into the playlists during the two hour drives. candy (the song) made me feel happy and comforted when i was very stressed and mentally checked out. the magic of k-pop boys.

my personal song ranking is as follows:

  1. walk with you
  2. candy
  3. moon
  4. tangerine love
  5. take my breath
  6. graduation

which feels like an injustice because i like the first four equally! walk with you has the lyrics and moments that i adore. candy is very replayable and catchy. moon is a vocal flex (especially for mark) and tangerine love is lex-coded. it’s unfair to rank them against each other.

whoever chenle had to convince in order to get this album: i’m glad you listened ♡

in the event that the bird app sinks like the titanic, i want to have a back-up plan. what better time to hash that out than the night we get an extra hour of sleep?
