    Un álbum bien estructurado con pies y cabeza, líricas bien pensadas y coherentes entre si, un muy buen debut, no podría esperarse menos de una artista del nivel de Im Nayeon.

    What a flawless debut album ! It’s been on repeat since release day and I truly can’t find a single
    flaw, congratulations Nayeon on your (VERY) successful debut as a soloist ⭐️

    Blatant attempt to appeal to American pop audiences more, but it succeeds! Apart from the title track and "Sunset," it doesn't have much of the K-pop "charm," but it sounds lot more unified and consistent than most K-pop albums do, with almost every track seeming like it had about the same amount of effort put into it.

    POP! is a straight up viral mega hit, so catchy, amazing choice for the title track. The Bsides don't disappoint either, with Nayeon herself penning lyrics for 2 of the tracks which is still sadly a rare thing for many female kpop artists. No Problem and Candyfloss are my favourites but there's a good mix if tracks with different styles so there's something for everyone!

    Uno de los mejores Álbumes de un artista solista de k-pop con ritmos adictivos y con buena letra en cada canción. Nayeon como Twice han demostrado tener Álbumes increíbles.

    It's an incredible album. Nayeon easily managed to bring out the summer feeling and this is definitely a summer hit that kpop needed this year. Nayeon is a great artist.

    The only good thing about the album would be the song that he released in collaboration with Félix, from my dear stray kids

    I dont know why i expected something of more substance (musically, but especially LYRICALLY) but thats really not what this was at all which was really disappointing. Still fun and poppy and cute, but shallow and derivative and unoriginal at the same time? U can bop too it, but u would be bopping to a sound and essentially a song u have already heard regurgitated by different artists aI dont know why i expected something of more substance (musically, but especially LYRICALLY) but thats really not what this was at all which was really disappointing.

But all the songs talk about love except one so I was a little disappointed because I wished for more diversity in topics And the singing style and melodies are very similar to the style of her band, so I couldn't find her own style in this album.… Expand

    IM NAYEON is pretty much what you'd expect from Twice's lead vocal. The album opens with "Pop!", a certified banger and features interesting collaboration tracks including "No Problem" and "Love Countdown". The mini album does a great job of offering a variety of styles while keeping the overall theme quite cohesive.

    This is a solid pop album and Nayeon’s charms shine. Her voice, visuals, and sweet attitude deliver a feel-good tracklist full of fluffiness and catchy hooks, but it’s also clear that her own colour still waits to be found.

    Sure, IM NAYEON is all glossy sweetness and may lack nutritional value, but does that really matter when the final product is this easy to sink your teeth into?

    Highlights include the Carly Rae Jepsen-esque, synth-washed jam "No Problem" (with Felix of Stray Kids) and the frantic sing-along anthem "POP!" Front-loaded with the immediate, pulse-pounding fare, IM NAYEON closes with a trio of sensual and smoothed-out tracks that would make early '90s R&B girl groups proud.
