The cast of 'Ssul Jeon' discuss g.o.d and EXO's new songs

The topic of legendary group g.o.d came up on the May 22 installment of JTBC's 'Ssul Jeon' as the veteran group recently reunited for the first time in twelve years with "The Lonely Duckling."  They also talked about EXO, who recently made their own comeback with "Overdose."

Kim Gu Ra said, "['The Lonely Duckling'] gives off the same feeling that is unique to g.o.d like their past songs, 'Road' and 'Lie.' Rather than trying to do the music [that's trending] these days, they put up their trademark [sound] from the past to match with the music today."  However, he then added with disappointment, "I feel like they were a bit lacking when it comes to giving off a new vibe."

Park Ji Yoon defended the group, "You could feel tired of it, but I just liked it based on the fact that they're such a nostalgia inducing group."  Heo Ji Woong likewise agreed that the music had a very nostalgic effect.  In relation to EXO's "Overdose," he said that he could feel as a whole that the boys were SM's biggest finishing act, elaborating that he could feel that it was a group in which a lot of effort had been put into. 

Lee Yoon Suk said, "I liked 'The Lone Duckling' because of the lyrics, but I don't hear the lyrics very well in EXO's 'Overdose.'  I don't think I match well with EXO."
