On November 10, 2023, aespa officially released their fourth mini album "Drama" and its title track of the same name. MYs were hyped with the group's dark and confident discography, alongside their captivating choreography, styling, and visuals.

 

During the promotions, aespa's choreography for "Drama" eventually took over social media, especially in TikTok, where fans and netizens uploaded various clips that showed them dancing to K-pop's best instrumental.

The music video also sparked a forum online on May 14, when netizens praised the quartet for not following the "easy-listening" trend in K-pop and going out of their comfort zone when it came to musical direction.

Netizens also expressed how commendable the production was since the song brought back K-pop's unique aura and diverse feel.

"It's been diluted in K-pop these days," OP shared. "But K-pop's original assets were diversity and the group's unique aura."
