Background

YENA and Yuqi first crossed paths during a memorable encounter on 'Idol Star Athletics Championships' ('ISAC').

The song title, 'Hate Rodrigo,' is an unconventional expression of YENA's admiration for the popular singer-songwriter, Olivia Rodrigo, employing the term 'Hate' as a stylistic choice. Olivia Rodrigo gained immense popularity with her debut single, 'drivers license, ' achieving the prestigious feat of topping the Billboard Hot 100 chart and captivating audiences across generations.

Artistic Interpretation

Despite the creative expression, the term 'Hate' might be misleading to international fans, given its negative connotation. As a result, the music video was made private due to potential misinterpretations and controversies, raising concerns over the need for clearer communication.

The music video itself features heartwarming glimpses of YENA's childhood photos, effectively capturing fans' attention and evoking nostalgia. Those who appreciate YENA's adorable and vibrant persona from her previous releases like 'SMILEY' and 'SMARTPHONE' will find the similar charm in 'Hate Rodrigo' (although the video's accessibility is currently limited).

Musical Progression

This title track continues YENA's exploration of diverse musical styles, showcasing her growth as an artist. In contrast to the darker allure presented in her previous single, 'WICKED LOVE,' 'Hate Rodrigo' embraces a rock-style sound that is refreshing and exhilarating.

 

Korean version of the lyrics
