In the end, music is also about taste.
The first bite is sweet, and the aftertaste is spicy.
More than anything, I keep thinking about it.

Girl group UNIS’s new song “SWICY” is sweet and spicy.
The new word ‘SWICY’, created by combining ‘Sweet’ and ‘Spicy’, is a word that captures the duality and addictiveness of the generation called GEN Z in just three letters.

A cookie that melts in your mouth when you take a bite, but then a spicy flavor hits you right away.It’s something that doesn’t exist in this world.
“Chocolate, Taco, Ice cream, Kimchi Fries, Gochujang Cookies”
The song begins with a list of powerful yet cute food names.
It looks like a gourmet’s carefully hidden notebook, or like a scene from the refrigerator of a sweet and spicy addict.

Then, all of a sudden, he throws it.
“new can’t fill them all.Need it something.”
Perhaps this song could be a ‘plate of new sensations’ for a generation with a picky ‘emotional palate’.

In the music video, Eunice looks like a group of girls gathered at a dessert bar.
The space, which mixes retro props with futuristic images, rapidly changing concepts, and repetitive choreography and sounds, is reminiscent of a box of cookies, each bite containing a different flavor.

“Who s that SWI - SWICY girl ?”
The song asks itself questions and answers itself.
“It changes every time.It’s hard to choose just one, whether it’s glasses or a dress.”

Nowadays, we live in an era where idols don’t stay with just one concept.
Anyone can wear and take off a colorful character, becoming a being that experiments with identity in itself.
〈 SWICY 〉 captures that flow in the most ‘teen-like’ way.
Playful yet confident, chaotic yet precise.

The second half of the song is experimental and dreamy.
The rhythm unfolds electronically, with repeated “aha” s, and the hook becomes addictive.
A song with a new generation identity that is different from the refreshing and charismatic performances of girl groups we have seen so far.

Most importantly, this song actually tastes good.
The melody, the rhythm, the visuals - they’re all a taste that keeps coming to mind once you take a bite.
For us, whose emotions are as picky as our tastes,
This song was a pretty good recipe.
