[Photos] Rainbow is Ready for Spring and a Comeback

10

I wish I were better at recognizing flowers. And, maybe, at knowing the names of girl-group Rainbow. Ah well, I can’t be good at everything.

 

 

This concept is so refreshing for a comeback and specifically for Rainbow’s- who could have gone the loud, brash, in-your-face-rainbows route. Instead, it’s like the soft rainbow in the sky after a heavy rain. Or, to really wax poetic, the May flowers after all the April showers (as the Western idiom goes-not sure if there’s a Korean saying verbatim to that). I know nothing about the group and cannot even, for the life of me (and for this post), remember the title of any of their songs; I guess I am used to ignoring Rainbow due to the fact that they debuted during the onslaught of girl-groups and because their music just hasn’t wowed me. But, these concept photos sure make them stand out from the rest of the girl-pack.

Looking pretty much stunning in the (except for the somewhat creepy circle lenses) in their playfully ethereal bed of flowers, the seven members of the rainbow may have a comeback to look forward to-at least in the aesthetically-pleasing sense. And they say KPOP can’t be subtle…in the meantime, I’ll save any musical critiques for when they begin releasing teasers.

 

I wanna frolic in the flowers too!! The colorful girls will release their mini-album To Me on the 11th of April, while their comeback is scheduled to be on Music Bank on the 8th!

    Looks like Cube’s girl group A Pink concept, which was a combination of KARA’s honey and SNSD’s debut concept picture to begin with.

    We’re going back to the time when feminine with a hint of cute concept rocked in kpop.

  • oh why

    i guess its true what they say that there is nothing new under the sun. the girls do look pretty though. one thing rainbow has for going for them is that their leader and their rapper are drop dead gorgeous!
