ENHYPEN just made a comeback on July 12, 2024, through a full studio album titled "ROMANCE: UNTOLD" with the title song "XO (Only If You Say Yes). "XO (Only If You Say Yes)” is a pop song with a catchy synth melody . This song depicts ENHYPEN's more mature but also gentle side.
Where the fantasy romance story raised in this song is about a boy who is willing to do anything for the person he loves. This is also depicted through a scene that highlights a room that symbolizes a house. Then the full moon that depicts them also willing to do the impossible like giving the moon to their idol.
The boy also asked permission from the woman he considered a goddess to kiss and hug her. On the other hand, they also asked if the woman would also hug and kiss him. The song "XO (Only If You Say Yes)" highlights the politeness and green flag attitude of a man. Where they not only express love, desire and words.
But also glorify their women by always asking for permission and only acting. if the girl says " yes ". There aren't many elements in the music video. But they all seem to describe the song well. The fantasy side of this song is shown with all ENHYPEN members playing scissors, rock, paper at the beginning of the video.
Then they suddenly find themselves in a world with a different place and time. But at the end of the video, all members are back together like at the beginning of the video. Personally, I am not surprised to see ENHYPEN being so successful with this album "ROMANCE: UNTOLD".
Because conceptually, this song is indeed more easily accepted by all groups compared to their previous songs. The lyrics, "XOOOOOO, XOOOOOO. XOOOOOO, XOOOOOO. Kiss me-eeeee, don't say no-ooooo. Kiss me-eeeee, don't say no-ooooo" are very addictive and the melody easily gets stuck in your head.
So even if you only listen to this song once, the listener can still remember this part. This song does not emphasize the impression of summer like most K-Pop songs released in May-July. But the position of "XO (Only If You Say Yes)" cannot be ignored and instead becomes one of the fresh things this season.
With this simple but very good song, ENHYPEN has established itself as one of the boy groups in the spotlight today. Then don't forget the dance challenge trend that is still popular among idols today. "XO (Only If You Say Yes)" makes this trend even more fun because even though the song is simple, it is very exciting to be used as a dance challenge.
