With the release of their latest track, "Cookie," NewJeans has unveiled all the tracks to their debut album, making an official debut.
The new girl group from HYDE's ADOR has been getting a lot of attention since making their debut with "Attention" last month. What makes this even more unique is that they've released music videos for all the tracks included in their debut mini-album.
NewJeans has been getting rave reviews for their catchy tunes and addictive music. They rank high on the Melon chart, with all their releases being praised by listeners. However, not everything has been smooth sailing. The creative director Min Hee Jin was under controversy for glamorizing pedophilia, and now there is another issue that popped up. There has been a discussion that sparked after the latest song, "Cookie," was revealed for inappropriateness in the lyrics.
Netizens gathered in a popular online community to discuss whether the lyrics are just childish or have an underlying inappropriate meaning with sexual innuendo hidden in them. This is because the members of the group are so young, with the youngest member, Hyein being only 14 years old.
The lyrics were shared on the community site, where many joined in the debate.
[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1: Hyein, Hanni]
Made a little cookie
Baked it just for you
But you know that it ain't for free, yeah
Made a little cookie
It’s too soft
Can't stop thinking about it
[Pre-Chorus: Danielle, Minji]
With chocolate chips, you know
I wanna sprinkle all over
I want to make you lose your appetite
I'm hiding it, but I want to see you more
If you want it, you can get it, if you want it
Let me hear your voice again, boy
[Chorus: Haerin, Hyein, Minji, Hanni, *Danielle*]
No dinner, dinner, you’re hungry though
No water, water, you're thirsty though
Only sweet flavors, only desserts
That's how you like it, ain't that right?
No dinner, dinner, you're hungry though
No water, water, you're thirsty though
*Only sweet flavors, only desserts*
That's how you like it, ain't that right?
[Verse 2: Haerin, Danielle]
Made a little cookie
Your poison
I’ll melt your heart away
So good, yeah
Looking at my cookie
Do you ever smell it different? (Taste it)
What’s with a bite isn't enough?
[Pre-Chorus: Hanni, Minji]
With chocolate chips, you know
I wanna sprinkle all over
I want to make you lose your mind
I’m hiding it, but I want to see you more
If you want it, you can get it, if you want it
Let me hear your voice again, boy
[Chorus: Haerin, Hyein, Minji, Hanni, *Danielle*]
No dinner, dinner, you're hungry though
No water, water, you're thirsty though
Only sweet flavors, only desserts
That's how you like it, ain’t that right?
No dinner, dinner, you're hungry though
No water, water, you're thirsty though
*Only sweet flavors, only desserts*
That's how you like it, ain't that right?
[Bridge: Haerin, Danielle, Hanni, Minji]
(Yeah, yo)
Bet you know, bet you know, bet you know I
Make recipes that you won't see anywhere else, boy
Take it, don't break it, I wanna see you taste it
Sugar, got sugar
Spare nothing when I bake it
(Yeah, yo)
Bet you know, bet you know, bet you know I
I want to mess up your diet
Take it, don't break it, I wanna see you taste it
Sugar, got sugar
Bet you want some
