Overall: The hook is not interesting to me. Surely, the lyrics for a song titled "Candy" should contain references to candy and not references to automobiles. Sorry. Jeromi Mikhael (talk) 12:05, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

• I have to agree. I personally don't find the hook very interesting. What else would a song called "Candy" reference? — Yours, Berrely • ^Talk∕_Contribs 12:49, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Personally I thought the hook was kind of interesting, although the original hook could be revised a bit: perhaps mentioning the "Baekhyun compares his charms" part more explicitly might improve it? I tried looking for alternative hook facts in the article but none seemed to be suitable. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 04:06, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

• ALT1: ... that Baekhyun compares his charms to various flavors of candy in his song "Candy"?

@Narutolovehinata5: Thank you for your suggestion, came up with ALT1. Jeromi Mikhael, Berrely, Is this going to work? Ashleyyoursmile! 09:18, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
