Apink 11th Mini Album [RE : LOVE]
We, who dream of true love once again
Like a dream that will never end, with that same first feeling, ‘Love Me More’
Apink, who has always run forward while looking toward a single place from the same spot, releases their more meaningful 11th mini album [RE : LOVE] after approximately 2 years and 9 months.
The 11th mini album [RE : LOVE] begins with the question, “What was it that I truly wanted?” as ‘I’—who lives a life more glamorous and envied than anyone else—suddenly feels a sense of emptiness and looks back 15 years into the past, eventually unfolding a story of realizing the incomparable emotion of ‘love.’ Furthermore, it is an album where you can feel the deep narrative of a classic sensibility that only Apink can deliver.
The title track ‘Love Me More’ is a song that evokes a faint yet elegant, bright yet painfully longing emotion by combining a modern and tinny EP sound with the analog machine synth sounds of the 90s. It expresses mature yet honest feelings—confessing a warm love without beating around the bush—through charming lyrics.
When suddenly reminiscing about the past, one looks back at their current self. It is not because of something specific, but rather remembering the past self after losing the essence of the present. What I first wanted was love, and now I do not want to forget or lose that emotion. Recalling the moments of being most loved that everyone has, Apink confesses that even if eternity doesn't exist, they refuse to believe it, hoping that all these moments, every single moment, will last forever.
