Welcome to a special unboxing and review of “Like Water,” the first solo album from Wendy of Red Velvet. This album marks a poignant moment in Wendy’s career as it showcases her vocal prowess and artistic depth beyond her group activities.
Upon opening the album, you are greeted with the choice of either a sleek case version or a photo book version. The design is visually striking, offering an aesthetic appeal that resonates with Wendy’s image—elegant and pure.
The album features five tracks, led by the double title tracks “Like Water” and “When This Rain Stops.” “Like Water” serves as a metaphor for Wendy’s indispensable influence and healing presence, much like water itself. The song highlights her delicate yet powerful vocal abilities, which soothe and captivate the listener.
Moreover, the album includes a duet with fellow Red Velvet member Seulgi, adding a layer of camaraderie and showcasing their synergistic vocal harmony.
“Like Water” not only represents Wendy’s vocal and emotional range but also stands out for its production quality. The packaging of the album is equally impressive, with thoughtful touches that reflect the album’s theme of comfort and healing.
For fans of K-pop and newcomers alike, Wendy’s “Like Water” is a testament to her growth as an artist and her ability to touch hearts through music.
