I don't quite understand what they were trying to do with this album. Anyway, Lennonade (read "Lemonade") are JohaN and SimJaeGyeong, and KimDaeIl. My guess is that JohaN came with most of the music and his management decided to throw in two more people in to make it look like a group? When filtered, SimJaeGyeong's voice sounds a lot like LeeYunJeong formerly of PiPi Band (maybe, that's why she was "chosen"?).

Am I being too harsh? Maybe, but the group has no focus. It sounds like a collage of "the sounds that young people might like." Their music is light, and their lyrics don't say much and quite sentimental. From the cover art and design, the album is clearly designed to target teenager group. Would it work? I know that the Rock Records are multinational company, so that's what they were trying? I am not a psychic, but will we ever see "Lennonade 2"?

Bottom line: Not a chance.
