TWICE's Nayeon Writes Three Tracks on Her NA-sty Single, Arriving November 20

TWICE's Nayeon has revealed her concept photos for the new single NA-sty, and the image is hard to miss: white wings, a pure-white dress, and eyes closed in a calm, dreamy expression that matches the title track's name, "BABY ANGEL." The single arrives on the 20th at 2 p.m. KST (November 20).

The single's name blends the Korean sense of "Nayeon's style" and "being true to myself" with the English word "nasty," a playful, cheeky twist. Nayeon took part in writing and composing "BABY ANGEL" as well as the B-sides "SHiVER" and "BOY." Each of her solo releases has shown a different side of her, so attention is on what direction she takes this time.

On theqoo, the reaction to the photos was far from uniform. Some read the styling as deliberately retro and kitsch, while others found it flat compared with her earlier solo era. Photos were provided by JYP Entertainment.

1. 1

   Is this meant to be a 2000s-style concept?

2. 2

   Is it a Windows-themed concept?

3. 3

   Did this concept really come from JYP...?

4. 4

   The concept feels a bit vague to me.

5. 5

   It looks like a sample photo from a stock image site, lol.

6. 6

   Ugh, why make the concept so boring? The "POP" era was so pretty and I loved it.

7. 7

   It's clearly intentionally retro and kitsch, lol. I think the final result turned out really well, though...?

8. 8

   I get that it's a concept, but the hair color in the first round of photos really doesn't suit her and dulls her beauty.

     Then again, maybe that's a style people overseas actually like, lol.
