Weakness

For this comeback, HIEUTHUHAI continues to work with his familiar and close collaborator, Kewtiie.

I had high expectations but I'm disappointed after listening to it," "The melody sounds so familiar, like old-school music," "The melody is similar to old pop songs from over 10 years ago," "This song is quite catchy but not original," commented listeners about the song.
