Have the Wonder Girls boxed themselves in with the claim of their band concept?

1. [+148, -18] I don't know enough about the other issues but media playing as a band will only come back to bite them if the public finds out that they can't even perform with instruments live. If they put an MR over their stage when they're not even performing dance music... they'll end up getting hate like a certain other male idol group.

2. [+130, -21] "The teaser reveal of 'I Feel You' is hard to classify as a genre of music that bands typically perform. The members all come out with their own instrument but the music that is played is 'manufactured' from midi production. It's the type of music that makes you question if the members carrying instruments is even necessary. Of course, our worries may be jumping the gun but we can't help but feel that we've been betrayed by their concept." I completely agree with this. The teaser was filled with sounds from electronic midis...

3. [+112, -49] I just find it funny how Girl's Day got so much hate for wearing shorts but the Wonder Girls is wearing something even more provocative and people are reacting differently, tsk tsk

4. [+15, -7] Makes me wonder if it's necessary to strip down a band this much

5. [+14, -4] Judging by how the teaser had 'JYP' whispered at the front, the title track is obviously produced by Park Jin Young. If they're a band, shouldn't they have produced their title track on their own at the very least...

6. [+14, -5] As long as the song is good... I doubt they're going to be holding their instruments as a prop for dancing. And please take out the scene where Sunmi zips her pants on top of the toilet in the teaser. That's just asking for broadcast bans.

7. [+10, -3] I was in awe over the instrument teasers but the teaser video for the song made me underwhelmed... I guess the band concept is just a concept after all..

8. [+6, -1] I don't think wearing swimsuits should be considered erotic... wearing it and doing sexual moves and such would be considered erotic. And all of the girl groups nowadays have similar concepts.. sexy, cute, porno.. the Wonder Girls have always had the retro concept of their own so why complain about it? Do people want them to do ballads or dance music? And just so you know, all of the bands on music shows do hand syncing.

9. [+4, -5] Thought it'd be a band concept, saw the teaser and realized it's just a retro dance. What do you expect from JYP.

10. [+2, -4] I'm just disappointed because I thought it'd be a band concept but it doesn't look like.. ㅠ_ㅠ
