100% Beat (amazing song!)

I've been a fan of 100%, under TOP Media with Teen Top, since their debut in late 2012, but they've been a bit quiet recently. Their debut song Bad Boy was amazing and their followup song in 2013 Want U Back was also great, but their recent comeback Beat is my new k-pop obsession, they are seriously flawless and this song is great and yay.
 
I'm a little sad because the leader Minwoo is a '85 liner and he enlisted in the army early this month, to be released in December 2015. Also, the maknae Sanghoon is on a hiatus and may possibly leave the group due to personal reasons, meaning that this comeback is as 5 members instead of the 7 that I love and adore. That does mean that my bias Rokhyun is now the temporary leader!
 
Anyway, I'll post the dance version MV here because I adore the choreography to this song and I'm not a fan of the acrual MV, it reminds me a little of like BTOB's Thriller or VIXX's Voodoo Doll. Dance-wise AND vocally they are amazing, you should watch their dance versions - I think they are almost on par with Infinite and BTS when it comes to synchronisation (though this dance practice is a little off sync) and they sing live in their dance practices. The vocal line, Rokhyun, Jonghwan and Hyukjin are amazing and I am obsessed with this song.
 
100% are definitely climbing up my bias list to be alongside BTOB, B1A4 and of course my #2 k-pop group VIXX. Though they still come nowhere close to my love for Infinite, obviously!

Not going to lie, but I've always had a soft spot for 100% since debut and I've always wondered why they never debuted before Teen Top, but I think 100% has gotten much better songs than Teen Top whose stuff has been going downhill since 'With You.' (Don't get me wrong, I like Teen Top too, but it's just that 100% works more as a group for me.)

The MV should have been at least a minute longer and give more backstory to what was already going on, it would have been better if they did that in my opinion since what they had going on in the video was pretty interesting. But I don't think TOP Media is prepared to push people's buttons like VIXX's company has been doing, which works a lot better in their favor with what they want to do and the niche they have.

But, I'm a pretty big Jonghwan fan.

(Still think it was a mistake to name their album 'Bang the Bush' though, so much ual innuendo from that.)

I'm so sad Sanghoon's on hiatus :(
This comeback is amazing though. I really hope this can be, like, a new beginning for 100% because they're so good at this concept *_*
