"Tomboy" is a song recorded by South Korean girl group (G)I-dle for their first studio album I Never Die. It was released as the album's lead single by Cube Entertainment on March 14, 2022. The song marked the first release of (G)I-dle as a quintet following the departure of member Soojin in August 2021. It is an alt-rock and pop punk song that takes influence from rock music. It incorporates guitar riffs, drum beats, and lyrics that revolve around breaking the mold of being a perfect girlfriend.

"Tomboy" received positive reviews from several publications, which named it one of the best K-pop songs in 2022, as well as praising the song's production, lyrics, and message. It was commercially successful in South Korea, peaking at number one on the Circle Chart for multiple weeks. Additionally, it was certified platinum by the Korea Music Content Association after surpassing 100 million streams in the country.

Background and release

[edit]

On February 17, 2022, Cube Entertainment announced (G)I-dle would be releasing a new album in March 2022 as a five-member group after Soojin, who was embroiled in a school bullying controversy, departed in August 2021.[3] On February 24, it was announced (G)I-dle would be releasing their first studio album I Never Die on March 14.[4] Four days later, the album's track listing was released, with "Tomboy" confirmed as the lead single.[5] On March 7, the audio teaser video was released.[6] The music video teaser was released on March 11 and 12.[7][8] On May 20, a remix version by R3hab was released.[9]

Composition

[edit]

"Tomboy" was written by Soyeon, who also composed and arranged the song alongside Pop Time and Jenci.[10] Soyeon cited the fictional character, Cruella de Vil, as the inspiration behind the song.[11] Musically, it is a "grimy" alternative rock and pop punk song that is influenced by rock music. It is set to reverberating guitar riffs and drum beats with lyrics about "independent and breaking the mold [of] being a 'perfect girlfriend'".[1][2][12][13] In terms of musical notation, the song was written in the key of C-sharp minor with a tempo of 124 beats per minute.[14]

Critical reception

[edit]

Billboard named "Tomboy" the song the best K-pop song of 2022, praising the song's message, art direction, lyricism, and production writing: "the expletive-laced, punk sound of “Tomboy” was more aggressive and grittier than anything fans had seen from the outfit to date...Instead of coming back with something safe or easy-listening, (G)I-dle moved ahead with a track that spoke to its core message of presenting the group’s true selves.[15] Similar to Billboard, Teen Vogue's Anton Rohr praised the song's punk production, message and lyrics.[16] The Korea Herald's Yoo Hong named the song one of the highlights of 2022, writing, "(G)I-dle comes back for ‘vengeance’ after a yearlong hiatus with its megahit song 'Tomboy,' a rebellious pop-rock song with an ear-catching melody and eye-catching choreography." He furthermore praised the hook for combining the "members’ unique voices with a rough instrumental sound, and the addictive variation."[17] The Telegraph's Nandini Chakrabarti wrote that "the lyrics connected with audiences worldwide and paved the way for the group to emerge from its downfall in 2021. Tomboy’s success and the punk vibe of the song pushed the group to even greater heights of recognition."[18] IZM's Seung-geun picked the song as one 2022's best songs, despite the challenges that the group faced after member Soojin's departure. The group's departure from their usual style helped them gain prominence in the girl group scene. He also noted that unlike other groups, (G)I-DLE embraced pop punk, distinguishing themselves with the genre's infectious melodies and straightforward lyrics.[19]
