Description

• English
• Korean

“Heat (열기) (9)” is a track that proves a point that even without aggressive tempo, the temperature of the music can become heated up by the fervor of the girls.

자극적인 템포 없이도 소녀들의 열기로 얼마나 음악의 온도를 높일 수 있는지 증명하는 “열기”.

Trivia

• The title “Hot Air Balloon” suggests that the song is about flying higher up with someone.
  • “붕붕” (bung bung) is an onomatopoeia for the sound a hot air balloon makes.
    • “콜록콜록” (kollok kollok) is onomatopoeia for the sound coughing makes. Go Won’s coughs can be heard in the song after that line.
• The demo for “Heat” was sung in English, likely by Brooke Toia.
• This song most likely went under many changes before being released as the one we know today. In the 394th episode of LOONA TV, Choerry can be heard singing HyunJin’s “Hey 원래 그런 거야” line. Also, at the LOONAbirth concert Kim Lip sang a part of HaSeul’s bridge line, “너는 믿을 수가 없지”.
