This song is super clever in how it built upon a nursery rhyme-esque motif? and it expands upon the idea by reinforcing a "glitching" dimentia. the repeating "또 왜, 너 망설이니? / Don’t U Wait No More" lines chirp with a sort of wind-up toy cadence. the distorted vocal sample that bleeds into one lo-fi wail, the dissonant backing synths that seems to combat the vocals, it all adds up to suggest a malfunctioning toy looping its demented melody. the real stroke of genius is that it avoids certain creepy cute tropes/trappings by pairing this schoolyard rhythm with nu jazz/neo-soul style vocals. wendy's squeaky high notes during the bridge seems to emulate a scratchy vinyl. was the cherry on top of this mad confection. essentially the auditory representation of Dismaland. hypnotic. 

Lucky Girl like a spiritual successor?
