‘The ReVe Festival’ Finale, Part 2
The second half of ‘The ReVe Festival’ Finale (2019) gathers the songs first heard on Day 1 and Day 2, including the swimming-lesson flirtation "음파음파 (Umpah Umpah)" and the spell-casting "짐살라빔 (Zimzalabim)", plus the special track "La Rouge". These are playful summer songs about diving in, pedalling to the beach, and a crush that will not stay hidden. The vocabulary covers warnings and nerves, getting ready to go out, and the small tells that give your feelings away.
