A Dear Letter from Oneus to M
By: Bella Lee
A letter is one of the most intimate forms of communication. From the personal handwriting to the words themselves. Oneus has titled their latest album “Dear M” as a letter to their fans (lovingly named “TOMOON”). This album features 17 tracks and a journey through Oneus’ discography.
Oneus is a South Korean boy group formed by RBW in 2018. The group consists of five members: Seoho, Leedo, Keonhee, Hwanwoong, and Xion. They debuted on January 9, 2019, with the mini-album “LIGHT US” and the title track “Valkyrie” Oneus is known for their energetic performances, sharp choreography, and unique concepts, often blending elements of traditional Korean culture with modern sounds. Oneus has gained an international following due to their captivating music and performances. Oneus is often recognized for their strong concepts, which range from epic and mystical to intense and futuristic. Their music spans a variety of genres, but they often mix elements of pop, EDM, and rock, with a distinct blend of powerful, emotional vocals and rap. Their musicality shines bright within the members, between dance and rap and singing, they are an unstoppable group.
“Dear M” features the title track “IKUK,” which was a song produced on the reality survival show “Road To Kingdom: Ace of Ace” (broadcast by MNET). This title song brings back the futuristic sound that Oneus had historically used. The other original songs in the album are “We Are Young,” “DEVILISH LOVE,” “W,” and “Rupert’s Drop” (previously released as a single). These songs prescribe an intimacy between Oneus and the listener, bringing the new fans close and the veteran fans closer. The remaining 12 songs on the album are rerecorded versions of Oneus’ greatest hits. TOMOON can look forward to a curated collection of Oneus, along with “W,” written as a tribute to someone who has always been there.
