The title track of a mini album about a story that reconnected after ten years. As the drums drop out at 2:28, the ten stand in a row, and after 34 seconds of "la la la," 'WE MEET AGAIN' appears at 3:16.

The lyrics are packed with guitar terms: riff, sweep, pick, bending, harmonic, wah-wah. At 0:31, as the guitar is played on screen, its sound is missing, and in the bridge at 1:34 the backing stops four times, every 2 seconds.

The screen that opens on a campfire turns black and white at 2:41, and color returns for just 2 seconds after the title word 'pedazos' is sung. Spanish lyrics come in where the drums drop out.

A second look at the music video for the number one song on the Bugs weekly chart: Kian84 cutting in at 1:28, a bucket list on a karaoke screen, and a white-haired SOYEON as the backing stops at 3:19.

The song picked as September's M COUNTDOWN PICK stage. In a music video that moves between five spaces, the drums stop just twice, for one second each, right before the chorus.

Kim Young-ok and Na Moon-hee act out 'my dream is for us to become two weird grammas together'. From 1:09, where lyrics become dialogue, to the police station in the first and last choruses without drums or bass.

When the voice gathers in the center, MINZY is alone on screen; when the choir spreads to the edges of both ears, dancers fill it. The width of the sound and the number of people move together.

From a star drawn on fogged glass to a traffic signal and a star in the sky, plus what the picture does when the sound empties out at 1:17 and 1:37. One day before 'Kick Off The Wall'.

The chorus cries 'hold me' while everyone laughs arm in arm, but the actual embrace comes in the 12 seconds when the drums and bass drop out. A timestamped look at a music video where the members stand beside their younger selves.

From the opening fall between buildings to the title that appears at 2:55 and the credits of Japanese production company AOI Pro. We followed what the picture breaks every time the sound drops away.

From the drums that finally land at 1:44 and the low end that vanishes at 2:27 to a 1979 bass line arriving at 0:12: only moments we measured or paused on in NONOL PICK and Hidden Details over the past week.

Follow the 'Muses and the spring of inspiration' from the album introduction and it runs in one line: Pegasus at 0:13, a harp at 2:05 and, at 3:00, the mark of a hoof.

The bass phrase from Yoon Si-nae's '이 밤을 즐겁게' ('Enjoy This Night'), five semitones lower and 1.22 times faster. It carries 1 minute 50 seconds of the song's 3 minutes 20 seconds, and the words '이 밤' ('this night') only turn up where that phrase drops out. Right down to the issue number '256' on a newspaper in the music video.

The opening shot eye to eye with a cat, the people with nets, the screen going dark at 1:55, and end credits printed on a truck door.

An opening shot through a scope, a swarm of motorbikes in Taipei, the '元' on price tags in an alley, and the foxes that keep multiplying from 1:48.

Why the title track sits at the very end, the tails that fan out at 2:03, a five-second hush at 0:54, even the Chinese characters on a sign. We took another look at '9', the EP from SEVENTEEN's JUN.
