Idle's song oh my god and what is your interpretation

     

The performance begins with a roar, as Soyeon, 21-year-old leader of Korean girl group (G)I-DLE, turns to lớn the crowd và lets out a guttural cry. Her small frame is hidden behind her own unrivaled bravavị, và her gaze pierces the camera. "Beware, with rough claws," she warns in Korean. "I pave ways no one has gone before." As the stage rises beneath her, the rapper"s formidable flow intensifies until it culminates in a dominant declaration: "I"m a queen." Then, she smiles.

For the emerging bvà (G)I-DLE, barely two years old, this staggering moment was their televised coronation. Their moody and percussive performance of "Lion" on the live sầu finale of the competition series Queendom boosted their provocative sầu image globally, and it exemplified what soulful vocalist Yuqi refers lớn as the "(G)I-DLE genre," a bold aesthetic that is loosely defined as "whatever they want it khổng lồ be." At the over of the choreography, before the six women strut across the stage khổng lồ take their seats atop actual thrones, sultry singer Soojin exhales the final word: "I’m a lion, I’m a queen, notoàn thân can handle me."

Onstage, (G)I-DLE appears fully without restraints, và that feeling extends to lớn "Oh My God," the group"s lademo single off their third EP, I Trust. One of the five sầu total tracks on the release written & composed by Soyeon, "Oh My God" is a dark, trap-infused tuy vậy with lyrics that riff on contrasts — light & dark, purity và sin — khổng lồ communicate the the idea that true divinity comes from knowing & trusting yourself. "Believing in ourselves is a kind of confidence that only (G)I-DLE can portray," Soyeon tells kasynoonlinemy.com News from a conference room in Seoul, South Korea, where she"s joined by her members at a large table.


They are her muses: Miyeon with her powerful voice and temperate composure; Minnie with her sweet, airy tone và charming pluck; confident Yuqi, bursting with energy & humor; quiet storm Soojin with her empathy và grace; & youngest member Shuhua, whose ethereal strength inspired the untamed ferocity of "Lion." One of the reasons their music is so distinct and assertive, Minnie says, is because the group control much of the process: Their music is by & about themselves. Minnie, who is from Thailand, wrote last year"s funky "Blow Your Mind," & Beijing-born Yuqi has been working on her own compositions from the group"s designated studio inside CUBE Entertainment. "It"s not easy, especially for us as foreigners," Minnie says. "That"s why I respect Soyeon because she produces everything, sometimes in a very short amount of time."

"Our strong point is that we"re different individuals," she explains. "So we try to put out the svào, quality points of each of us through our songs. Soyeon knows us the best, so she tries to lớn give sầu us the perfect part for each of us. That"s the reason it comes out good every time." She pauses & smiles, "And this time, it"s also very good!"

"With "Oh My God" we want lớn present a genre of our own," Soyeon adds, though she would rather the sound speak for itself than spell it out in words. Because Soyeon, who once rapped "break the cage of prejudice / how dare someone stop me and control me" knows better than anyone: Once when you define something, it defines you — it boxes you in. And (G)I-DLE aren"t about labels. There"s a freedom to lớn Soyeon"s process; she likes to lớn experiment with rhythms & melodies from various musical backgrounds. Their debut traông xã, "Latata," was pure trop-pop seduction, while follow-up singles further expanded the group"s diverse sound: lớn the sultry house of "Hann" khổng lồ the Latin snaps và horns on "Senorita" khổng lồ the "90s boom-bap of "Uh-Oh." In many ways, "Oh My God" is the natural evolution of their trendy sound, building on the seething tension of "Lion" & adding a slow, simmering drop primed for the Western market, like a cozy sonic và thematic companion khổng lồ Ariamãng cầu Grande"s "God Is a Woman."

The corresponding visual adds another layer of intrigue with haunting, cinematic images depicting heaven, hell, and purgatory. Inspired by isekai anime (a subgenre of Japanese animation in which a character is transported between worlds), Soyeon explains that the imagery represents love sầu in its many forms, a notion made more powerful by the unexpected use of female pronouns. "Oh my god, she took me lớn the sky," Soyeon cries out on the hook, while she writhes within a mass of bodies cloaked in Trắng & tainted in blachồng ink. "Oh my god, she showed me all the stars," Minnie concludes. It leaves viewers wondering to lớn whom are they referring — lớn themselves or khổng lồ love itself, a common motif across (G)I-IDLE’s discography — but Soyeon will leave it lớn the fans khổng lồ interpret.

"I didn"t want lớn limit that "she" to a certain being or a certain definition," she says. "So it"s open to lớn anything. I believe sầu that all kinds of love are valuable and must be respected. That"s why I don"t want khổng lồ limit "she" khổng lồ something specific."

At first listen, Yuqi couldn"t quite grasp the concept either. She listened lớn an early chạy thử and "didn"t understvà it." But she believed in the song"s potential because she believes in Soyeon. "I trust her," the vocadanh mục says, smiling at Soyeon across the table before erupting inlớn a fit of giggles. Miyeon softly agrees. She recalls the anticipation of listening lớn "Oh My God" for the first time: "I couldn’t wait to see what Soyeon would do this time." It was a new sound for (G)I-DLE, và Soyeon was particularly nervous about the hook. It"s not a typical pop chorus exploding with uptempo beats và bright melodies; she was worried listeners would find it anticlimactic. But Miyeon thinks the mesmerizing hook is what makes the tuy nhiên so fresh. Soojin loves the "addictive" pre chorus, the way it intoxicates and builds. "When I listened to the tuy vậy with the hook, I thought that it was great, especially the lyrics," Soojin adds.

"Now that it"s complete," Yuqi says confidently, "I know it"s going khổng lồ be a hit — not only in Korea, but all over the world."


A new partnership with Republic Records in the United States will help propel them towards that goal. I Trust marks their official debut in the American market, & the group recorded an English version of the traông xã for the album as a gift khổng lồ their international fans, known as Neverland. In addition to "Oh My God" & "Lion," the EP also includes the flirty, bass-heavy B-side "Luv U" and the broody, EDM-synth track "Maybe." Each toils with a different emotion in relationship lớn love sầu, with "Luv U" depicting the fizziness of new passion and "Maybe" reflecting on a toxic fling turned sour.

"With I Trust we wanted to lớn convey a process of self-trust, the process in which we come khổng lồ believe sầu in ourselves, which leads lớn self-confidence as well," Soyeon says. "We did this concept because we wanted lớn bởi it. There"s no right time or wrong time for girl groups khổng lồ do anything. We can vì whatever we want, whenever we want to bởi vì it."

It"s that tenacity that solidifies (G)I-DLE as a formidable group eager lớn clalặng the global throne. And on I Trust, they"ve sầu never sounded more confident. That unwavering belief in themselves, bolstered by their experience on Queendom, is the (G)I-DLE genre. They don"t ask for permission, and they don"t seek forgiveness — they simply exist. "We always vị the kind of music that we want lớn vì chưng," Soyeon says.

"In our group, we have the same goal," Yuqi adds. "I believe that if you don"t want to lớn have sầu regrets, then you have khổng lồ do something that you lượt thích and something that you really want to lớn bởi."
