GRADING EXPLANATION:
Here are my three categories for rating albums: 'Good lyrics' with 4 points because it's imo one of the most important thing in an album (good lyrics don't have to be poetic or deep, a light and sweet love song can be extremely well written and will have all the points for me), 'Diversity' with 3 points imo a good album has different things to suggest, not always different genres but definitely a bit of diversity in lyrics and vibes. Then 'Coherence' with also 3 points because if it's great to have a diverse album if no songs make sense together then it's a bit disappointing, it doesn't need to have a story or having all the songs follow each other (for the loooore) but i like a good coherence!

[@Tzuyusdimpleenthusiast]

Yaay we are officially entering the ZONE, this album is definitely a no skip imo. So looking forward to your reaction :)

[@soliedaisy]

thank you, hope you enjoy it!

[@SquirtlePower809]

Nooooomygawd SAME! This is literally my fave album period. Jihyo dove DEEP into her artistry and pushed the boundaries of kpop with this one. I am so proud of her for this record. She was do involved in writing the songs! Not just lyrics, she was part of constructing the actual songs themselves. Ugh perfection. "ROOM" still makes me cry when I hear it.

[@marinateixeira3637]

jihyo said this album is truly her blood, sweat and tears... in the videos that was released showing the process of recording the album you can truly see it. she wrote closer, whishing on you, don't wanna go back and nightmare she also composed talkin about it, don't wanna go back, room and nightmare you can find in Twice's youtube channel, a playlist for ZONE and there you will find jihyo recording nightmare, talkin about it, killin me good and in the zyo's zone zip ep.1 shows her recording a bit of don't wanna go back I really wished her album be more appreciated bcs she released a 10/10 album, and gave all of herself for this album. it's her solo debut after being like 18 years in jype, she really works hard and Onces need to recognize this also it's so good in nightmare and talkin about it in some parts, how you can listen that her mouth is wide opened and it gives such difference and add so much to the songs she performed nightmare in Twice's tour before the album got released, after its released she changed to killin me good and for their concerts here in latam she performed closer, their next concert is in vegas and we hope she perform talkin about it

[@xradrezsnt]

She also wrote room!

[@JJstillwithyou]

True 💜

[@Venz04HD]

The way I see it, 'Room' talks about pushing forward no matter how scary and unsure things are and refusing to go back to something that holds you back. It can easily be interpreted as not going back to a bad relationship and moving forward but I like how it can also be interpreted in terms of Jihyo's career. It's as if the song talks about her newfound sound as a solo artist and how she can express things she can't before as part of a group. It's scary but also exciting to go on this new journey as a solo artist and she was able to come out of the 'room' where everything was familiar and easy and sure which was TWICE. It seemed like this song was the culmination of her long journey and proclaiming that she is ready to try something new. I love this song so much, it just feels very freeing. Anyway, thank you for the reaction! I'd really appreciate it if you can also check out Nayeon's solo album I'M NAYEON. It's very different from Jihyo's solo album but is able to really capture who Nayeon is as a solo artist, just like how Zone really showed who Jihyo was as an artist as well. Thanks!

[@soliedaisy]

I love this, thank you for explaining your point of view for "Room" I will listen to it again! Also the video on Nayeon's album will come out next friday! Thank you for watching

[@nabszains]

don't wanna go back is one of my fav songs in general. jihyo participated as lyricist & composer in most of the songs and i think this album is very strong lyrically with very interesting melodies, one of my fav being don't wanna go back bridge, which jihyo constructed, it's so beautiful.

[@soliedaisy]

The song is definitely growing in me, the vibe is just really nice for a lot of situation in life, so nice to listen to ~~ Thank you for watching ❤

[@beaviskpoptwicejihyo4711]

Best album. Jihyo the writer! Complete artist :)

[@nabszains]

personally I'd give the lyrical content atleast 3/4 specially for don't wanna go back, room, nightmare, specially don't wanna go back explores relationships & breakup in a way most breakup songs don't, the maturity & self-acknowledgement in the lyrics was really refreshing and it painted a whole storyboard to me, room & nightmare were also very beautifully written exploring many complex emotions and rendering them beautifully into words that i just felt in my bones while listening

[@soliedaisy]

Agreed! To be honest while editing the video I was kinda wondering if I had to up my rating for lyrics because listening to it again, I found other meanings - but because my rating is the reflection of my immediate feeling on the album I kept it but I think if I was to rate it again I would probably get more points for lyrics because I have now a different context and view on the songs! Thank you for watching ❤

[@tw9ce248]

reaction to perfect world mv and album PLEASE PLEASE

[@sopadetwice2712]

I agree this!!

[@velky_reeds]

Jeongyeon's song "Bloom" that is now in With You-th was originally gonna be part of this album but Jihyo couldn't reach all the notes in the song so it became a Twice song instead

[@yoobeepedmeinthebeep]

and at the end she got the parts she had a hard time w lol, she at least sang less cuz it was shared between 9 members

[@weee8350]

Where did they say that?

[@eppursimuove9642]

This album deserves all the praise and respect.. The album is a complete album with everything magnificent. These two songs, Dont Wanna Go Back and Room, are works of art. TMI: I love songs that can achieve magnificence with simplicity. ROOM is one of those songs. It is magnificent. Room and Handle It are two of my favorite songs that fit this description..

[@SquirtlePower809]

Room is one of my all time fave songs

[@zippy6eve__]

agree w you this song/album so good but untill now i dont understand why ppl hate this song😢just look at the views of the mv made me sad tho. it didn't even increase like nayeon solo😭💔

[@josi4samo]

17:50 THE DANCE BREAK HERE IS CRAZYYYYYYYYY!!!!! I RECORD WITH MY PHONE AND SHE WAS SO CLOSE I LITERALLY DIEEEEEE

[@soliedaisy]

I NEED TO WATCH ITTTT

[@kevindun]

This album is a masterpiece plus she wrote most of the song, such a underrated album

[@soliedaisy]

I didn't know she wrote most of them, that's so cool!!

[@soniaiboyako4023]

2:57 i remember some of the members being like "girl we could've done that, why didn't we get a call 🤨" lmao Regarding Room i interpret it similarly to the comment you read, as in being about the practice room during her trainee days or something related to that - kind of as if she promises herself she'll keep pushing in order to never have to feel stuck in it again and that, once she gets what to her might feel like freedom from it, she won't ever look back or have to feel that way again (which would be once she makes it)

[@SquirtlePower809]

Another great review!! Love watching your analysis of music!! Thanks for checking out Jihyo, shes my ult bias.

[@soliedaisy]

Thank you so much for watching!! Always nice seeing your comments ❤

[@niatozaki]

the behind recording video of this album was so interesting to watch tbh

[@soliedaisy]

I'll def watch it then! Thank you!

[@nina-dy5qi]

IM SO EXCITEDDDD

[@Deepanshu2797]

Aaah this is going to be banger.. 🔥 Excited 💯

[@yoobeepedmeinthebeep]

8:54, nope exactly what it is, jihyo had enought of news when her dating w kang daniel was out in 2019 (without their will, it was leaked) so shes def singing about folks talking about her relationships

[@carxshii]

yesssssss finally! Been hoping you will react to Zone since your first Twice reaction!! Thanks for reacting~~

[@soliedaisy]

Thank you so much for watching ❤❤

[@xradrezsnt]

Oh, I'm excited to se your reaction! And a curiosity that you maybe not know is that jihyo participate in 6 out of the 7 songs in this album (if I'm not wrong).

[@soliedaisy]

ayoo that's so cool!! Thanks for the info!

[@JoseRaton23]

Jihyo is the leader and the most talented of Twice, she is the main vocalist and she wrote and helped producing her album (except Killin Me Goo)

[@pedrolisb0a]

i can't wait to see your reaction to nayeon's album!!!!

[@raulgillette3669]

Room is such a vibe, everytime i listen to the song i feel like floating in the ocean.

[@moonchild6506]

Fun fact: jihyo wrote and composed most of the album songs

[@orbitingloonas]

One of my favorite albums 💖😭

[@SCRE4MTZU]

now that we found out that jihyo has a boyfriend we know that the album was all thought about him.

[@moonchild6506]

Yessss and yesssss

[@SergioGarcia-ve6jj]

Very true what you say about emotion! I’ve been singing for ten years and I STILL struggle with emotion. I love the emotion in Jihyo’s voice. A lot of people said this album didn’t display her skills well, but I think the opposite, people don’t know the skill it takes to sing like this!

[@soliedaisy]

100% YES!! It's really hard to mix good technique and emotions, it's a lot of work! Good luck and keep singing!!! ❤

[@eiyua]

YESSSSSSS

[@aneira8047]

zone probably also a world play of her nickname? before zone was released, in TTT, one of the staff gives her a nickname "zyo" in their letter towards jihyo. At first jihyo was confused what is zyo mean but then quickly reliaze that it was her name.

[@nabszains]

ayyy finally

[@lalalouuu]

I hope you can check Jihyo, lee mujin guesting also. Thank you! ❤️

[@Sun-kissed_lips]

I hope you also react to Nayeon's album

[@soliedaisy]

I will next friday!!

[@gxtiitomartinez]

My fav Room and Nightmare

[@twiceEnjoyerot9]

You should definitely watch the performance dance video of closer😊 Thanks for this reaction 👍🏼

[@soliedaisy]

people have been requesting the dance video so I will def watch it! Thank you ❤

[@josi4samo]

13:32 closer is 100% my favorite of this album, but I know I'm a bit suspicious to say, because the beat is Latin and well, I'm a LESBIAN LATINA! jihyo in the tour that is now being held in all other countries was presenting killing me good but in Mexico and here in Brazil she presented Closer because it is a Latin beat and we are and man I love her so much for thinking about it and having this consideration and thought "oh I think they're going to be very happy to hear a song that has a beat from their culture" and MY GOODNESS the performance was incredible, the screams here in Brazil were crazy, they said that we were the country that screamed the most in all the songs and the only country that sang all the songs from start to finish, you have to look on YT for any Closer performance here in Brazil, it's incredible! (the videos don't even capture half of the screams that were real, I went both days and I left deaf and without a voice

[@soliedaisy]

YES! All the concert videos i've seen in Brazil are craaaaazy!! Lesbian poweeeeer ╰(*°▽°*)╯

[@josi4samo]

@@soliedaisy YES FRRRR💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 for the proud of all the lesbians i say with proud that the biggest lesbian support sana complete my heart while smiling at me 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 we won

[@yoobeepedmeinthebeep]

SOME GOOD FUCKING MEALLLL YAS

[@marga_dewa]

What i love about Twice writing style is, they kinda have their own color Like how jihyo's song about what's on her mind. Up no more about how she cant sleep at night. Cactus about her died cactus. Get loud about how she warn dispatch. Dahyun writing is always inside her heart. cruel, crazy stupid love, gone etc And nayeon writing style inspired by other person. Rainbow inspired by chaeyoung, make me go inspired by psychopath in movie and depends on you inspired by mina

[@ainelina]

❤❤❤

[@gerardoortiz3236]

I come from the future and I bet you're going to like "Closer" a lot! I will be here on Friday to see if this happens, thank you very much♥️♥️

[@soliedaisy]

won't spoil 🤐😂

[@josi4samo]

35:07 nightmare was actually the first song to be revealed, you know? well twice started ready to be tuor before jihyo released this album, and all the members do a solo performance in this tuor, those who don't have their own song do a cover, the only exception was nayeon with "pop", chaeyoung which features "my guitar" which is a song that she composed herself and jihyo was presenting nighmare, but as two people chae and jihyo were presenting songs that they wrote themselves we thought it was normal but it ended up that a few months later it was announced that jihyo was going to release an album and then this song was officially released because they were only in a show just like chaeyoung's, and when the album was released jihyo started to perform killing me good instead of nighmare and here in Latin America she performed closer, it's the song that changed the most! (in these changing songs in performance, jeongyeon also changed, before she performed the cover of "juice" but then there was controversy with the original singer lizzo, then the company thought it was better not to sing songs by those who had controversy and now she sings cover from " can't stop the feeling" so cute)

[@soliedaisy]

oooh I see! Thank you for explaining so well, it's nice to have more context now! The loooore is to me ❤

[@Ggior]

I think people hate on this song and album cause it doesn't sound as k-pop as they wished. Others probably because there is a man in the MV and people is crazy

[@soliedaisy]

Wow... People are crazy indeed - I think the song is amazing 😥

[@Rajesh-iq8kw]

You should check closer stage perfomence

[@soliedaisy]

oooh good idea, I will! Thank you

[@Theoldonce]

I found much meaning in this album, let me start by saying however that Killin Me Good could have been released as a singe because it was written by JYP where as all the other songs have meaning to Jihyo. Now obviously I can't relate to the first song but I can understand that Idols can't live a public life but in that song Jihyo says two things that relate to the rest of the album it's not going to happen twice and she's now in charge. The rest of the songs I do relate to because it's about falling in love and being in love then losing that love and the loneliness you feel. but not because that person doesn't love you any more. It's the opposite of Romeo and Juliet, die to stay together verses leaving cause you can't stand the pressure. Nightmare tells you all you need to know about her anger, when you want to be the reason another person has nightmares for the rest of there life your hurt and pissed. He knows who he is and he doesn't deserve her. OT9 forever (TIMELESS).

[@soliedaisy]

oooh that's super interesting, I feel like I was missing some context while listening to this album so I will probably listen to it again by myself and get all the lyrics and context right! Thank you very much for watching and explaining ❤

[@marcelofrias1631]

I really liked this album, lets hope you like it🤣

[@Rajesh-iq8kw]

Every one is saying because nayeon album is too popular than this thats why

[@LopuzKP]

a la gente que no le gusta es por que aun estan en los tiempos de twice cute... claremente estos años ha madurado su musica.

100% agrees! Gracias por ver mi vídeo!

[@remyxhm]

This album Is simply amazing... Este álbum es simplemente increíble... Muy subestimado.. y personalmente me gusta más que el de Nayeon.. Saludos

[@svndlysins]

I think people don't really hate the song killing me good but hate the producer Lindgren, i read it somewhere they make discussion about twice and they kinda piss and tired with lindgren song I'm not sure why I'm not really into social media thing

[@soliedaisy]

oooh I see I see, that would make more sense to me because killing me good is objectively a good song ❤

[@yoobeepedmeinthebeep]

i guess it's because lindgren is not a creative producer at all, he is stuck w one theme! we don't want him because it gets repetitive and harms twice and affects chart performance

[@giakhanhnguyen360]

Scientist, Set me free, Killin' me good and Takin' about it's beats literally sound alike. Their works are just so boring and uncreative. That's why we dislike him and his wife producing the tiltle track for TWICE

To me, Room EMPHASIZES 😉 moving on from trauma- refusing to fo back to a space (mental or physical) where you were not respected, not loved, not seen as worthy, etc.
