Kpop Girl Groups Update March 2017 (First Half)

          So it's time for me to update the blog once again every month...Compare to previous month, there are not many girl groups comeback(still some, just not as many as previous 2 month).
           For March 2017, 3 major girl groups comeback, GFriend, Girl's Day and Red Velvet, with a few other groups.




                                GFriend - FingerTip

            As most buddy expect, GFriend didn't disappoint them. They released the 4th EP The Awakening both digitally and physically at Source Music on March 6th 2017.The album consists of six songs, including the single "Fingertip".
            The title song "Fingertip" is composed by  Lee Gi and Yong Bae, who have been writing all their hits since their debut,  and it talks about how strong women love. It's a dance song with a funky disco genre and G-Friend's own rock sound. 
             And How popular is this track? Since they released the MV, They've already reached over 2 million views with almost 150,000 likes as well in just 14 hours. And G-Friend got their 1st #1 with their comeback title, which made them the most successful girl group comeback at March 2017.

                               Girl's Day - I'll Be Yours

           Besides GFriend, another major girl group comeback will be Girl's Day. On March 2, 2017, Dream T Entertainment announced that Girl's Day was set to comeback after 21-month long hiatus during which the members focused on solo activities. The agency revealed that the group is in the process of wrapping up recording for their title track, and the comeback was set for late March 2017.On March 17, Dream T Entertainment released the group's comeback schedule and revealed that the new album would be the fifth part of the "Everyday" series.

  Red Velvet - Would You

                 At the same time, SM Girl group Red Velvet also made a comeback after Rookie. On March 31st, 2017, the group released the first single for SM Station 2, titled "Would You".
                 The song is a medium tempo pop song depicting the moment a girl's love comes true. The MV stars Red Velvet's Irene opposite actor Kim Min Jae, looking great together in the warm, spring atmosphere. And recently, besides cute dance tracks, Red Velvet made few good ballad songs as well, and some of them in their previous albums as well.
