Learn Korean Words with TWICE “Alcohol-Free”

TWICE has made a sunny comeback with their new groovy song ‘Alcohol-Free’. The catchy and joyful beats remind us that summer is finally here!

That summery concept of the MV is just killing (all the boys out there, stay calm!). Even the dance is just so groovy in the chorus, like the sea waves of the beach in summer! No wonder the MV can surpass their 27 million views just in 2 days!

Talking about the song itself, it is composed by J.Y. Park, that illustrates the feeling of love is so strong that it feels like being drunk! This song definitely is made for all the ONCEs! The composer also relates love like drinking Margaritas and Champagne. Definitely a song to listen when you just fall in love ❤
