Just a Few Words:
This is one of the songs that highlighted my 2013 trip to Korea. I also have a cool connection to the music video: my Korean mom gave me a head band that is identical to the one Yoonjo wears at the end of the music video during my trip. She, of course, had no clue! I still think it's cool, but since none of Korean friends knew who Hello Venus were (they said they aren't very popular), I couldn't share it. XD
Also, it may just be me and my dirty mind, but some of the language seems to imply...other activities in a vague, innocent way.
