The Comeback: KARD's Bold Return With 'Drift' KARD is back, and they're not holding back! After nearly a year away, this iconic co-ed K-pop group-BM, J.Seph, Somin, and Jiwoo-just dropped their eighth mini-album, 'Drift'.
And trust us, they're bringing all the confidence and swagger you'd expect from a group that's been breaking the K-pop mold for eight years straight.
Somin summed it up perfectly, saying, "We're back, and this time, we're even more confident and bold. Expect a whole new vibe!" BM hyped up the title track 'Touch', describing it as a sexy, self-assured anthem that takes those classic 2000s party vibes and gives them a trendy twist. Think Justin Timberlake energy, but with a KARD spin. The message? If you can't have me, that's your loss-talk about main character energy!
The Struggle is Real: The Not-So-Glamorous Side of Co-Ed Life Okay, let's get real for a second. Being in a co-ed group sounds super cool, but KARD spilled the beans on the awkward bits too. J.Seph admitted that matching vocal ranges is tough, but the real struggle? Changing outfits! While most K-pop groups can just swap clothes in the waiting room, KARD's guys have to grab their outfits and hunt for the nearest bathroom. Imagine being late for stage call because you're stuck in a queue for the loo-relatable, right? It's like every Indian college fest where you're scrambling for privacy in a crowded green room! But here's the twist: after years of this, J.Seph realized that these little hassles are just part of the gig for anyone working in mixed-gender spaces, whether you're a K-pop star or just trying to survive your college's annual day.
Why Co-Ed Groups Are the Ultimate Vibe Despite the wardrobe woes, KARD wouldn't trade their co-ed status for anything. BM and Jiwoo gushed about how their group's diversity makes their music richer and their performances way more exciting. With both male and female members, they can play with harmonies, choreography, and concepts in ways single-gender groups just can't. It's like having both Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt in the same band-double the drama, double the fun! And let's be honest, Indian youth know all about the chaos and creativity that comes from mixing it up-whether it's group projects, dance crews, or just hanging out with friends from all walks of life.
KARD's story is proof that sometimes, the best things happen when you break the usual rules.Growing Up, Glowing Up: The Evolution of Sexy Here's something every 20-something can vibe with: growing up and owning your confidence. Jiwoo shared that instead of going for obvious sexiness, KARD now aims for a more mature, natural vibe. Somin agreed, saying that as they've moved from their early twenties into their thirties, their style has evolved too. It's not about trying too hard-it's about letting that confidence shine through. If that's not the ultimate glow-up, what is? From the outside, KARD's journey might look glamorous, but their honesty about the ups and downs makes them super relatable.
Whether you're hustling at college, working your first job, or just trying to figure out who you are, their story hits home. Honestly, KARD's journey feels a lot like what so many of us go through-awkward moments, unexpected perks, and the thrill of doing something different. Their story proves that mixing things up (literally) can lead to some of the best memories and wildest adventures. Here's to more co-ed chaos, both on stage and off!
