ENHYPEN’s ‘Romance : Untold’: Every Song Ranked


The K-pop crusadersTK latest full-length includes contributions from "Hitman" Bang Si-Hyuk, Cirkut, Slow Rabbit, JVKE, Mike Daley and more.

Since ENHYPEN debuted in 2020 while the world was deep in the COVID-19 pandemic, the HYBE and BELIFT GROUP boy band embraced a dark sound and concept, driven by a larger vampire theme and lore that permeated their album releases and an accompanying webtoon series. From Jungwon leading off with the first “Let’s sugar talk!” line to Heeseung’s breathy “You can bite me, you complete me” lyric, and then all seven guys coming together on the laid-back chorus reminds us that thesearen’t the kids we watched compete for their dreams on I-Land in 2020 and they’ve matured into top-class gentleman. Mixing eerie synthesizers, gorgeous harp pluckings and an emphasis on the members’ falsettos, the song also feels like a matured take on ENHYPEN’s very excellent debut single “Given-Taken” from 2020, marking a full-circle musical moment for the group.
