Boy With Luv

After a couple of heavier title tracks, it was nice to hear something a little different from BTS with their upbeat, pop-y track Boy With Luv.

Kill This Love

When I made this design it had been almost a year since the release of DDU-DU DDU-DU, but Blackpink killed it again with Kill This Love!

April, and a Flower (Beautiful Goodbye)

Originally posted on April 8th, 2019.

2019 was full of a lot of things for EXO and EXO-Ls. Minseok and Kyungsoo enlisted in the military after both releasing solo songs; Yixing, Jongdae, and Baekhyun all released solo albums; we got a new unit in the form of EXO-SC; and EXO released their 6th full album OBSESSION near the end of the year.
We also got to meet Kyoongtube, Chen's Channel, and Chanyeol's Studio NNG. All super cool stuff that I was more than happy to listen to, watch, and support.

As an EXO-L I was obviously excited about all of the various EXO content we got this year, but at the beginning of the year I was most excited to hear about Chen's solo album, April, and a Flower. I love all the exos, but Jongdae's voice has always been a favourite of mine so I was pretty pumped that he was releasing a solo. Obviously I needed to make a design inspired by the album and this is what I went with!

I called it all the way back in April, and I was right that this design was one of my favourites of the entire year.

Dress code: bling bling bling ✨✨

MAMAMOO has been one of my favourite girl groups for a while but somehow I'd never made a nail design for any of their songs/music videos before gogobebe.

I loved how fun this song was and the visuals were pretty cool, so I decided to finally break the drought and paint some MAMAMOO nails.

Crown

I don’t often paint designs for rookie groups, but since I got so many requests for TXT's Crown I decided to take another look at the music video 👑

Today’s nails are inspired by a really cute noodle bowl I saw on Pinterest that was made by Mudness Ceramics (@mudness_ on Instagram) 🏺✨
I really like the subtle grey dots on the white and the mix of shiny and matte!

Noir

Originally posted on March 15th, 2019.

Over these past few years Sunmi has consistently released bop after bop, and while I've loved all of her comebacks since Gashina, Noir was the one that really stood out to me in terms of design potential. The song is so interesting in its commentary on the social media age, and the visuals that it used really pushed me to make this design.
