SEVENTEEN’s reign shows no signs of diminishing with their long-awaited 10th mini album ‘FML.’ As the thirteen-member group embarks on their eighth year together, their music continues to develop into a more refined and mature sound, an attestation to their ever-growing artistry. In ‘FML,’ SEVENTEEN demonstrates their ability to seamlessly navigate between genres, as no song is the same as the last. The versatility, quality, and mastery exhibited in this album cement SEVENTEEN’s position as a front-runner in the industry.
‘FML’ displays SEVENTEEN’s unwavering confidence in their artistry, exemplified by the rare decision to release two title tracks. Torn between “FML,” and “Super,” SEVENTEEN determined that two is better than one. The contrast between the pair is evident; “FML,” a song about feeling alone and lost while trying to find one’s true identity in our harsh world, is a heartfelt and sentimental track. The theme of isolation and feeling misunderstood is prevalent in this first title track. SEVENTEEN’s transparency within this song is relatable to Carats and reassures them that they’re not alone with their struggles in this world.
In contrast, SEVENTEEN is indestructible in “Super.” Draped in traditional clothing and surrounded by hundreds of dancers, SEVENTEEN strides toward victory as an unbeatable team. The chorus nods to the undefeatable Korean mythical legend Sonogong with the lyrics, ” Feels like I turned into SONOGONG.” The empowering lyrics about perseverance, teamwork, and resilience depict SEVENTEEN’s everlasting unity. ‘FML’ shows the beautiful journey from isolation to being embraced by a team of people who’ll never let you fall.
As SEVENTEEN’s achievements grow, it fuels their determination to prove their talents to newer audiences. ‘FML’ is undeniable proof that their journey as artists is far from the finish line. It’s only up from here for SEVENTEEN.
