WONHO'S WORLD DOMINATION. THE KING IS BACK
@rosemaria0.0
Yep

Exactly 😌😌😌
@mayab487
This is groovy. I can literally imagine him in a MV with a suit and tie, singing and dancing in/with the microphone and it's stand while chucking some dance and leg moves, and there's like musicians behind him playing the instruments along with back up vocalists.
(Yes, I just imagined and made up a whole MV in my head with this song.)
Nice groovy song, Wonho! ♡
