LE SSERAFIM serve up their latest dish, “Spaghetti,” the third EP in a trilogy that includes a saucy new collaboration with BTS’ j-hope.
As expected, the tasty treat dropped at midnight, along with the rest of the eight-track HYBE collection, marking j-hope’s very first feature on a track by a K-pop girl group.
The powerhouse team-up was teased earlier in the week with a video on YouTube titled “The Kick,” in which j-hope dons aMatrix-esque outfit and shades while appearing underneath flashing strobe lights. The big reveal comes at the end, with a snippet of KIM CHAEWON, SAKURA, HUH YUNJIN, KAZUHA and HONG EUNCHAE hitting us with the “eat it up” refrain.
