I don’t know about you guys, but it’s been a really emotional week for me. NMIXX is my favorite musical group, and I haven’t felt this much joy since the day I first discovered them. Seeing them hit new career highs, watching how well the album’s being received by both NSWERs and the general public, and witnessing the girls’ excitement in real time as they climb the charts… it's all overwhelming in the best way possible. I'm just filled with this euphoric sense of pride and happiness.
As I was taking in this rush of emotions, I remembered something JYP said last year about NMIXX. It was a short moment, but it really stuck with me. Here's the link to the short clip. For context and translation, he appeared on a livestream for an NBA-focused YT channel back in 2024. When the host read a chat comment mentioning NMIXX, this is what JYP said: “NMIXX is truly a group you can be proud of… Slowly, but surely.”
And they did, slowly, but surely. Maybe I’m getting ahead of myself right now and overreacting a little, but I think many of us NSWERs have felt a bit of frustration over how this incredibly talented group wasn’t always recognized or was unfairly judged. The “flop this, flop that,” “bad music,” and all those baseless comments, we’ve seen it all. But we knew. We knew they were making damn great music, especially in recent years, and we held onto the hope that one day, people outside the fandom would finally see what we see.
This full album feels like the culmination of everything they've worked for. All the growth, all the artistry, all the heart, everything coming together into one perfect project, showing the world how incredible they can be without sacrificing their core identity.
I’m just so happy right now. And the best part? We’re only getting started. I just hope the girls stay healthy throughout promotions, and let's all enjoy this comeback season.

”Boom, pow, gonna rock the world, yeah!” 😊✌️
There’s a 100% truth in that. It feels like a personal win.
NMIXX’s notoriety is expanding before our eyes. these next couple years could be a generational run, i can feel it
Even if they never reach this height again, I am so so proud of everything they’re accomplishing. What I’ve said many times now but I will keep saying is that the thing im most proud of is the heights of this while they’re keeping their sound. No compromises. It feels so surreal. The girls are just so so good and they’re so grateful of us all and its just very emotional.
I’ve been thinking and feeling all these things too but you said it all much better than I could.
They’ve faced so much unfair and unwarranted criticisms in the past from the outside.
But instead of letting it affect them negatively they kept their heads down and focused on creating the Music they wanted.
They’ve continued to work hard and get better and really hone their skills and their craft and their sound.
No compromises.
This is NMIXX… We are NMIXX.
I’m so proud of them and incredibly happy for them too.
They are so humble and sweet and appreciative for any and all success they achieve.
You could tell even with Forward Show Stages they were absolutely shocked to win.
I just Love this Group 🩵
Well said! Nmixx is my top group too (and not just Kpop but in general)
It’s been a wild ride following them the past 3 years and 8 months. I teared up the other day listening to O.O Superhero Version at the end of a full run through the album on headphones. Honestly, at first I wasn’t sure if the O.O versions made sense on this album and suggested they could’ve been a separate single, but now I think it’s the perfect capstone for the album. It’s like NMIXX saying “Look world, our awesomeness was right there the whole time, all you had to do was see it!”
