Seventeen right here
Say the name – SEVENTEEN! With their sights set on the top, this legendary 3rd-gen K-pop boy group just dropped their second album of the year. Known for their massive lineup, this self-made powerhouse never fails to dominate the stage, and the world. Not only do they create some of the most iconic bops in the K-pop scene, but they also serve jaw-dropping performances and laugh-out-loud comedy for their fans. Carats, their dedicated fandom, are convinced that Seventeen were born to be comedians before idols, especially with their hilarious reality show, “Going Seventeen”.
But now, as their members head off for military enlistment, the group decided to treat us to a mini album before we brace for the gruesome eight-year wait until their reunion. So without further ado, let’s dive into the incredibly emotional, yet totally addicting 12th mini album, Spill the Feels.
All about Seventeen’s emotional new mini album ‘Spill the Feels’
Spill the Feels
Seventeen drops ‘Spill the Feels’, and fans can’t stop vibing. Right from the teaser, we catch a glimpse of each member facing their own insecurity or fear, whether it’s something they’re afraid of achieving or losing. On a deeper level, the album taps into the struggles and fears that every Seventeen member encounter in life. But here’s the best part: it’s designed to bring comfort to anyone feeling low or in need of a bit of hope. And even though it’s only six tracks long, this mini-album is worth every second of your attention.
LOVE, MONEY, FAME (ft. DJ Khalid)
We should have known it was going to be a bop the moment they announced DJ Khalid would feature on the track. LOVE, MONEY, FAME, the title track shines a spotlight on love, placing it above everything else. As the song unfolds, the lyrics boldly declare that nothing matters more than the love they share. Ultimately, neither money nor fame means a thing if love isn’t in the picture.

Eyes On You
Eyes on You may sound like an upbeat, feel-good anthem, but don’t be fooled, its deeper meaning will definitely get you thinking. The lyrics highlight the importance of wanting to grow through honest communication, even if it comes with a side of heartache. Let’s face it: speaking the truth is always trickier than telling a little white lie. Plus, to truly trust someone and see through their facade, you need to be completely open-hearted.
1 to 13
This song feels like home, yet it also tugs at your heartstrings. 1 to 13 gently reminds us that Seventeen will always be 13, no matter what. Sure, each member may take their turn serving in the military or focus on their solo careers for a bit, but they’ll always reunite in the end. Plus, it’s an upbeat and catchy tune that will have you dancing under the moonlight all night long.
Candy
Candy is the vocal unit’s sweet treat. This outrageously beautiful ballad sparkles as Jeonghan, Joshua, Woozi, DK, and Seungkwan harmonise perfectly. But wait, there’s more; Through this enchanting song, we uncover a lovely message: as we grow up, love can get trickier to achieve. So, why not start loving like candy? After all, even the tiniest things sprinkle joy and happiness into our lives.
Rain
Rain comes from the performance unit and features Hoshi, Dino, The 8, and Jun. This song is definitely one we can’t stop listening to. Even so, while this upbeat melody gets us moving, its lyrics dive into deeper waters. Rain focuses on finding your way out amidst the darkness. In this context, the rain symbolises a wish to wash away confused feelings instead of just bringing gloom. After all, we all know Seventeen loves to drop fun tracks that hide profound meanings beneath the surface.
Water
Last but not least is Water by the hip-hop unit. Forget what the title might imply because this song kicks off with a sharp heat that hooks all listeners right from the start. Water boldly flaunts the freedom of control. Indeed, they may already hold power and position, but that’s not enough for them to sit back and relax just yet. Instead, they’re on a relentless quest to push forward for even more.
