《NCT 19th Member》Album Review with Davie
Advertisement
Rollercoaster
"Rollercoaster is the main track on the mini-album. It's a song about reminiscing the first time you feel in love and how it felt like a rollercoaster. Not because there was a rollercoaster of feelings involved but because you felt the adrenaline and danger and thrill of being in love. I really like this track because even though I'm young, it makes me excited for love and it helps me clarify whether past feelings I've had on little childhood crushes were really ever love"
I like U
"I like U is the track that the mini-album is named after. So it's kinda the title track but just not the main track. It's also the first of three english songs in this mini album. It's a very mature song for me to be singing since it's about falling in love with the guy, who you were only in a friends-with-benefits relationship, and he doesn't feel the same way or want to continue your relationship after he find out about your feelings. Although the concept of the song is too old for me there are certain parts and lyrics I can relate to"
Wine
"Working with BTS' Suga Sunbaenim was a dream come true. He is so talented. My respect and admiration for him is endless. We basically sat down and had our meeting. There was me, Suga Sunbaenim, my manager, his manager, Changmo who features on the track with his manger, our main producer and lyricist and then Mark and Taeyong oppa. So there were 10 of us in this meeting just talking about what we wanted the song to be about, sound like, what message it should give etc. Then after talking for about 20 minutes, he went and sat by all the kit and in 10 minutes flat had the basis of the track done. Everyone instantly loved it and put their trust in him to go and work on the track however he wanted. It was done about 3 days later and then Mark and Taeyong worked on the lyrics and Changmo wrote his rap. So it was finished in a week of beginning it. Only a genius could get people to make such an outstanding song so fast."

Shadow
"Shadow is probably my favourite song on the whole album. Mainly because it's in English. I also play the guitar for the recording and wrote all the lyrics myself so it's on more of a personal level.I definitely had a lack of inspiration when presented with the track but once Jisung gave me some help, the ideas came flooding in. It is partly based on truth but partly not aswell. I would say it holds true emotions but a false story line."
[Hidden Track] Feelings
"This track i co-wrote with another member actually. You'd never guess who though. Try and guess by the time i'm done explaining. So he really related to many parts of the songs, which are obviously the parts he contributed to. It's more so he wrote it and i arranged it and filled in the missing parts. He always says that his favourite lines are 'cause I give my life for you, I give my life to you'. He said it really captured his emotions in the most simple way. He put a lot of effort into this song and I'm so grateful for that. I just wish he would've featured on it 'cause he has one of my favourite voices in the group. Okay, have you guessed which member it is yet? Drum roll please....
It was Haechan oppa."

Delve
Summary – Level 1: Delve is an isekai litrpg that follows an average guy who just happened to wake up in a forest one day. He wasn’t summoned to defeat the demon lord or to save the world or anything like that, at least as far as he can tell. The only creature there to greet him was a regular old squirrel. Soon enough, he meets other people, only to discover that he can’t speak the language, and that not everybody immediately trusts random pajama-wearing strangers they met in the middle of the wilderness. Things generally go downhill from there, at least until the blue boxes start appearing. Delve is a story about finding your way in a new, strange, and dangerous world. It’s about avoiding death, figuring out what the heck is going on, and trying to make some friends along the way. It’s not about getting home, so much as finding a new one. Did I mention that there will be math? Summary – Level 2: Okay, but what are you in for, really? Well, this story is supposed to be realistic, or at least, as realistic as a fantasy litrpg can be. The main character doesn’t instantly become an all-powerful god and murder-hobo his way across the universe. Delve is, at its heart, a progression fantasy, but that progression is meant to feel earned. The numbers in this story actually mean something. Everything is calculated, and if you find a rounding error, I expect you to tell me about it. That said, if math isn’t your cup of tea, there is plenty more that the story has to offer. Characters are meant to feel real, and progression isn’t only about personal power; it’s also about allies, connections, and above all, knowledge. Figuring out how the system works is a significant theme. ... What, you want more details? Okay, fine, but this is going to get a bit spoiler-y. Are you sure? Yes! Really sure? I mean, this summary is practically half as long as the first chap– Now! Okay, okay! The main character becomes a magic user, but he takes a route that is not very popular in adventurer culture, namely that of a support. There is a full magic system with various spells, skills, and abilities, but our MC decides that aura magic is the way to go, and that the only stat worth investing in is mana regeneration. Most people at the Adventurer’s Guild think that this makes him a bit of a dumbass, but he’s playing the long game. We’ll see how that works out for him, won’t we? Because of his build, the MC levels up fast, at least compared to normal people. There are no cheats, though, and he is limited in other ways. There are some clear and pretty obvious downsides to his build. That’s what makes it fun, no? Morals? Our MC has them. Again, we’ll see how that works out for him. Realism, remember? Would you be okay with killing someone and looting their body? I sure hope not. POV? The focus is on the main character, but there will be occasional varying perspectives from people around him, or involved in the events related to the main plot. It isn’t going to jump all over the place. Tech is standard medieval stasis. No smartphones, but the MC does have a technical background. Computers and their programming might be involved. There might even be a bit of uplifting down the road, who knows? Anyway, it isn’t the focus. He isn’t going to invent the gun in chapter 1 and change the face of warfare. Romance is not a major focus. Friendships are more the name of the game, though there will be some characters in romantic relationships. There is exploration, though not as much of the geographical nature as you might expect. It is more about exploration of the system and the culture. The pace is slow and detailed, sometimes verging on slice-of-life. The action is meant to be realistic and grounded in the numbers, and it is intended to have meaning beyond simply punching things until they stop moving. The general tone of the story is grey, and some parts can get quite dark. People die. Sometimes, people with names, but not anywhere near GoT level. There is plenty of light, too, though, to balance the darkness. The world is dangerous, but overcoming that danger is why we’re all here, isn’t it? Anyway, if you’ve made it this far through the summary, you clearly like words. I hope you enjoy the story! Cover by Miha Brumec Summary Updated: 2020-06-14
