Song Review:: HITGS: Things We Dream: Vol.1- Cherry Blossom

• Release date: 2026 April 15

• Album tracklist: Cherry Blossom

• Album runtime: 3 minutes

 This group is definitely on Underage Protocol. Two fifteen-year-olds at debut. Still, I think they're in a good position to potentially carve out a similar niche as a group like Lovelyz based on what we've gotten from them so far.

If I had to describe this song, it would be solidly dreamy. We've got audience participation snapping through most of the song, with solid but not excitable percussion and a softness to everything else that it just generally sounds very spring-like, which is deeply appropriate considering that we're in early spring now. The moments where the percussion drops out and we gets just the dreaminess with the audience participation snapping are very well place to let the song take a big breath. 

Every part of the vocals are a little breathy, including the rapping. There isn't a whole lot of variation with the vocals, although one of the members does have a lower voice, and as an Alto, I love that for the group. You could get some good harmonies going. But vocally this is kind of a dandelion puff of a song.

Okay. I'm officially calling this a trend, because I've seen this suddenly pop up in multiple music videos in the last few weeks where we only got it occasionally in the year and a half I've been doing this before that, and at least two that I've done in the last couple of days alone. The home video cinematography? It gives it a very distinct look and feel, especially for something that seems to be going for more of a slice of life kind of thing, and even when the visuals aren't fully there, the handheld camera is doing all the heavy lifting for that. The music video is very cute though. It reminds me of being in middle school and the early high school years. As does the fashion choices for them. The shirt that caught my attention was the one with the ruffly bottom that splayed out. And I love the very ending of the music video.
