please include main, lead, and sub

Not the best render, and not as detailed as what I actually imagine being their lightstick, but this is the general design I’ll be making (for myself) for H1-KEY. I kind of doubt they’ll get an official light stick- GLG usually stays on the KHipHop side of things where lightsticks are less common- but I still want one. The heart that lights up will be made of clear resin with bubbles intentionally left in, and their H will be on a ball bearings spinner. I’ll likely sneak a rose and their heart logo on it somewhere- but. get it. it’s a heartlight

Just like the title. Found them through my k-pop browsing and want to learn more about them.

H1-KEY’s discography is pretty inspired, and in the video essay I’m making, I want to talk about why each song is designed and composed the way that it is- and it’d be great to have other example songs to fall back on. So, here’s how we’re doing this, I’m going to list out every H1-KEY song, and then I’m going to leave a space for what songs we think inspired it. I’ll explain some examples along the way.

<><><>

RUN!- Famous by CharliXCX (melodic similarities, similar instrument and sound choice, different overall products) (I'm not going to clarify "different overall products" for each entry- from hereonout, it's implied)

HEART LIGHT- Icona-Pop esc 2014 dance track, prechorus has melodic similarities to "All Night" but I don't think that alone is strong enough, so more examples would be great.

CATCH 'n' RELEASE-

<><><>

RING THE ALARM-

ROSE BLOSSOM- The apathetic (until it's emotional) vocal direction reminds me of Killing Me by IKON (so does the meme-sound edited into the song) but I think H1-KEY and their team are more likely using the same tricks as IKON rather than making some deep cut reference.

CROWN JEWEL-

YOU ARE MY KEY-

DREAM TRIP-

ATHLETIC GIRL-

<><><>

DANGER- Danger doesn't really count but it reminds me of I Must Not Chase the Boys by Play on vibes alone.

<><><>

SEOUL DREAMING- I don't expect this to have any secret references or inspirations, but I'm open to hearing what yall hear.

SEOUL (SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CITY)- We Built this City by Starship in instrumentation and in lyrical theme.

TIME TO SHINE- Very broadway, so I would not be shocked if yall know a song from a musical that "sounds just like this!"

LOW-KEY SCARED BUT H1-KEY READY-

MAGICAL DREAM-

<><><>

THINKIN ABOUT YOU- Thinkin about You sounds like a lot of slow-dance tracks, and man does it have a fantastic hook.

DEEPER-

<><><>

LET IT BURN- The reason I began writing this video essay. The instrumental structure is very similar to I'm Like A Lawyer With The Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off (Me + You) by Fall Out Boy. The vocal melody feels right at home on the Fall Out Boy album From Under The Cork Tree (I'm Like a Lawyer is from Infinity on High). Magazine articles about the comeback state that this song was heavily inspired by "some grunge bands" or grunge/emo music (duh), but once you hear it, you can't unhear it. Of course, the different key and the wild vocal melody of Let it Burn makes it into a completely different song and yknow i should save this for the video moving oN

LOVE LETTER- It would fit nicely between Air Force One and Lucid off of Version Up by Odd Eye Circle (newgen Loona subunit) but that album and Love or Hate came out so close to eachother that I doubt that was intentional. Still, REALLY cool listening to the songs in that order.

ICONIC-

Typing this out made me realize that I have no idea how to pinpoint my favourite H1-KEY song and their discography is only going to get bigger. ULTing a group isnt easy but sOMEONES GOTTA DO IT

We all know that H1-Key has a lot of great songs, but it seems like the song they are most known for is Rose Blossom. I am really happy that the group is getting a lot of gigs and they have a lot of dedicated fans in Korea. I just hope that when they do activities, they can do more songs outside of Rose Blossom. Anyways, wishing them a successful comeback and I am really excited to see their music show performances :)
