The frustration you feel right now is OK! But don’t be pessimistic about your life!
SEVENTEEN, full of healthy energy, confidently presents their first double title song!
Seventeen, the ‘new hero’ who never gives up... Armed with positive energy! Bringing comfort and hope through music
Once again, Seventeen, the 'K-pop absolute powerhouse' who chose to run without stopping, returned as a healthier youth with their 10th mini album [FML].
Following last year's 4th full-length album 'Face the Sun', which honestly expressed the ambition to become a being like the 'sun' that has a unique and enormous influence on the world, this 4th full-length album contains the new world of their own found after a passionate journey to become the sun. SEVENTEEN continued to break domestic and global records with their repackage album 'SECTOR 17'. Those who rarely tire are trying to push their ‘career high’ momentum even further.
Through this 10th mini album [FML], SEVENTEEN is poised to go beyond infinite growth and confirm its true value as a ‘K-pop absolute powerhouse’ that no one can surpass with a more intense and energetic appearance than before.
◆ An album that reveals Seventeen’s confidence… A masterpiece of conversion! 10th mini album [FML]
‘FML’ is a new English word, and is an abbreviation for ‘F*ck My Life’, a slang term used to lament or blame oneself and be pessimistic about one’s life when something bad happens or the situation goes badly.
Rather than being buried in endless negative thoughts in bad situations, Seventeen understands the conflict and wandering of youth from a healthy and positive perspective, saying, 'Instead of being pessimistic and frustrated on our own, let's fight and overcome together without getting tired,' and send a message of comfort and hope to them. presents.
This album includes the double title songs 'F*ck My Life' and 'Son Goku', as well as each unit song 'Fire' (hip-hop team), 'I Don't Understand But I Luv U' (performance) containing Seventeen's colorful colors. A total of 6 songs are included, including 'Dust' (vocal team) and the group song 'April shower'. In particular, album producer Woozi, led by S.Coups, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Mingyu, Vernon, and Dino participated in writing lyrics or composing music to present high-quality music.
◆ SEVENTEEN’s new challenge… First double title song! ‘Son Goku’ & ‘F*ck My Life’
The 10th mini album [FML], which will be the beginning of Seventeen's new story, is an album that reveals their confidence. Accordingly, Seventeen will release two songs as title songs for the first time since their debut. Through the double title song, they plan to once again captivate music fans around the world by presenting different colors of music and unprecedented performances.
The first track and title song of the album, ‘F*ck My Life’, is a song based on an Old School hip-hop rhythm, and the sound realized by adding conflicting codework to the drum sound reinterpreted with analog sensibility is impressive. The lyrics, which pour out direct and honest complaints such as “Such a damn world,” convey the message to those living in a harsh reality that accepting the current situation as is will provide greater comfort and hope than any vague consolation.
Another title song, ‘Son Goku’, unlike ‘F*ck My Life’, is a song characterized by a variety of repeated kick rhythms in the style of an alternative Jersey club with an intense feeling. Inspired by ‘Son Goku’, who upgrades himself through trials and frustrations, the message that compares SEVENTEEN, who is continuously growing ‘career high’ and growing infinitely, to ‘Son Goku’ is powerful.
In particular, the music video, which features a blockbuster 'mega crew performance' full of energy and moving as if it were one body with over 200 dancers, makes viewers unable to take their eyes off it. As a ‘representative K-pop performance leader,’ it will satisfy both the fun of watching and listening with the confidence that only Seventeen can show.
◆ Seventeen’s happiness delivered through endless evolution and spectrum expansion… Positive values [FML]
SEVENTEEN's 10th mini album [FML] conveys the values of happiness and healthy positivity through music that everyone can relate to.
Seventeen, who are constantly evolving and expanding their spectrum like 'Son Goku' who goes beyond the process of pain and the stage of overcoming it and repeating infinite growth, is imbued with a powerful 'power' that everyone can relate to through music that maximizes their strengths. It will be imprinted that it exists.
Seventeen's values of looking far ahead and following their own path, rather than being easily pessimistic and giving up by only looking at what is right in front of them, are clearly revealed.
◆ Tracklist
1. F*ck My Life *TITLE
Composed by WOOZI, BUMZU / Lyrics by WOOZI, BUMZU / Arranged by BUMZU, BuildingOwner
A song based on Old School hip hop rhythm. The sound achieved by adding conflicting code work on top of the drum sound reinterpreted with analog sensibility is impressive. Although it is based on a somewhat extreme theme called ‘F*ck My Life’, the lyrics with direct and honest complaints such as “What a fucking world” remain in my ears. They say that they try to reach a better conclusion on their own through ‘resolution’ followed by complaints, and that sometimes feeling and accepting the current state as it is can be more comforting than vague comfort.
2. Son Goku *TITLE
Composed by WOOZI, BUMZU, August Rigo / Lyrics by WOOZI, BUMZU, S.COUPS, Vernon
It is a song with an alternative Jersey club direction, and features a sound that combines the main characteristics of Jersey Club, such as repetition of drum samples, with Afrobeats. By intermittently using various rhythms used in Jersey club, Afrobeat, and drill music within the same BPM, Seventeen, who continues to evolve, is expressed with the same energy as ‘Son Goku’. Inspired by the common characteristics of various characters called ‘Son Goku’ that exist in the world, the part that touches Seventeen was expressed lyrically.
3.Fire
Composed by BUMZU, Wonwoo, Vernon / Lyrics by WOOZI, BUMZU, S.COUPS, Wonwoo, Mingyu, Vernon / Arranged by BUMZU
Seventeen's hip-hop unit song 'Fire' is an impressive song with an Afrobeats-based rhythm and a vocal chop track that imprints the theme of 'Fire'. Genre-wise, it aims for Rap Music. The four members, S.Coups, Wonwoo, Mingyu, and Vernon, expressed the passion and energy of the hip-hop unit from different perspectives, and it is impressive that the lyrics of the four members are unified under one theme.
4. I Don't Understand But I Luv U
Composed by WOOZI, BUMZU, Nmore / Lyrics by WOOZI, BUMZU, Hoshi, Dino / Arranged by BUMZU, Nmore
It is an R&B interpretation of the theme ‘I love you even if we don’t speak the same language’, and is based on a guitar loop with the unique rhythm and sound of R&B and slow jam. In particular, the section where harmony stands out along with the lyrics “You know, there are things between us that are more important than words” makes us reflect on the emotion of this song.
5. Dust
Composed by WOOZI, BUMZU, Park Ki-tae / Lyrics by WOOZI, BUMZU / Arranged by BUMZU, Park Ki-tae
This song evokes nostalgia with its analog synth and drum sound. Matching the mood of the nostalgic sound, the feeling of reminiscing about a departed person is sublimated in a witty way through verbal play. Now, I am lost in thought as I look at the ‘dust’ that has accumulated on the jacket of someone who is not by my side, and my mind, which is accumulating along with it, complains about ‘something’. When you listen to it, it is a song that builds up heavy memories, unlike the members' singing, which is as light as 'dust'.
6. April shower
Composed by WOOZI, BUMZU, SOFTSERVEBOY, Kareem James / Lyrics by WOOZI, BUMZU, SOFTSERVEBOY, Kareem James
‘April shower’ is a song that started from the expression, “April rain makes May flowers bloom.” This expression is also connected to the Korean proverb, “Pleasure comes at the end of waiting.” Even if the falling rain makes your steps slower, you can get a glimpse of Seventeen's healthy attitude of overcoming even hardships with positivity through the lyrics, which I think are directed for my stage. It is a medium tempo pop song, and the drop section, reminiscent of a rainy scene, is impressive.

Measuring Your Body
Find our detailed how to measure inseam and how to measure waist size here.
- Waist: Place the tape measure around the narrowest part of your waist, usually around your belly button or a little above it, and measure the waist circumference in inches or centimeters.
- First Hip/Low Waist: Locate the point between your hip and your waist and place the tape measure around it.
- Hips/Second Hip: Following the guide for chest measurement, make sure the tape measure is wrapped around the widest area of your hip. No need to add room for movement if you are trying to buy stretchable jeans with a close or slim fit.
- Chest: Stand straight, with arms relaxed on your side, ask any adult at home to help you wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of your chest area. Allow a little room for movement, maximum of 1 inch. If you are buying a jacket, use this measurement and add a few inches depending on how loose you want the jacket to fit you.
- Height: Measure from your head to toe without any footwear on. You can use a door frame as a measuring point, stand up straight against it and make sure to properly mark the highest point of your head.
- Arm length: Measure your arm length from the shoulder to the hand wrist. Don’t forget to stretch your arm.
That looks easy, doesn’t it? But that’s only the beginning. Women’s sizes are far more diverse than that for men and children. Those whose measurements are not included in a typical standard guide will need to wear apparel that fit better in sections labeled as petite, curvy, and tall, depending on their body type. There are also plus sizes and maternity sizes, and as if that’s not enough, there is also “vanity sizing”, which can really confuse consumers.

What is Vanity Sizing?
Technically referred to as a size inflation, vanity sizes are a common trend in fashion where a size number increases its corresponding measurement, often in an attempt to make buyers feel skinnier than what they would normally be. If anything, this also shows how clothing sizes have changed through the years. To avoid being confused by this trend, keep in mind the following tips, especially if you are buying online:
- Always check the online store’s size guide
- Read product reviews, comments, and ratings
- Make sure to read all product information and details
- Talk to the seller if possible
Are there clothing sizes based on height and weight?
As you would have guessed by now, this would be impossible because of the high diversity of women’s sizes when it comes to dimensions. To put it simply, a specific weight can come in different heights and body types, making it complicated, and even if you manage to match a height and weight, the body measurements can be entirely different from one person to another. If you want to ensure proper fit, always go by your specific body measurements.
Can we really rely on clothing sizes?
Doesn’t that outfit look perfect on the mannequin? But wait, you try it on yourself, and you only get disappointed! Any woman can definitely relate to this shopping experience. Now imagine shopping online, where the challenge in finding that perfect fit is doubled since one can only rely on photos and online information before deciding on a purchase. Another factor to consider is that online shops vary in sizes depending on their location, with many stores even using their own measurements that go beyond the usual “Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large” sizes, which is why consumers must be very careful when it comes to buying clothes.
Those on the extreme sides of the standard measurements will often find themselves questioning possibly every guide available out there. Published sizes can be really confusing, especially if you are looking at a size guide that you are not familiar with, so it will always help to keep your updated sizes handy and compare it against the chart you are looking at. Keep in mind that you should also adjust your body measurements depending on the type of fit you want. While we may all have an idea how clothing sizes are determined, it will still pay to be extra meticulous if you want to reduce or eliminate the chances of having to return that item you purchased online.
Dressing for Your Body Type
- Tall – if you stand 5’8” or above, you are most likely to find a good fit in the “Tall Section” especially if you are buying bottoms like jeans, trousers, and skirts.
- Petite – for heights 5’3” and below, the “Petite Section” is a good place to shop from whether you are buying dresses or tops and bottoms.
- Curvy – the “Curvy Section” ideally caters to women whose waist measurements are at least 7 inches smaller than their chest measurements, and hip measurement that are 10 inches greater than their waistline.
- Plus Size – this term may vary per country, but in general, this refers to those above the sizes 10 and XL, although some brands often use the term “curvy” as well to avoid sounding offensive. Not all brands carry plus sizes, so if you fall on the larger size of the chart, keep an eye on brands that offer plus sizes.
To help you find that perfect fit whether buying online or not, you can refer to the guides below, created for each clothing type, just convert as needed from the standard table above. For dresses, sweaters, and suits, you can use the table above as well.
Tips to find the right clothing size
Tip 1: Measurements
It is best to take the trouble to measure your body measurements with a tape measure. It is decisive: Chest, waist and hips including buttocks. The neck circumference is still interesting for men. Write down your values and put the note in your wallet for your next purchase. Most sellers should be able to do this and advise you accordingly.
Tip 2: Manufacturer tables
When shopping online, it turned out that many manufacturers and brands have their own measurements. The corresponding tables are often offered in the online shops to click on. Use them to make sure! If you are shopping in a store of the same brand, printing this table can be helpful.
Tip 3: Read ratings
Also, often useful: the comments and ratings of other online shoppers on a garment. Many people state in their ratings whether the garment has fitted as expected, or whether they recommend a number smaller or larger to others. You can also often find references to quality and material in the evaluations.
Tip 4: Your figure type
In addition to body dimensions, the figure type is also relevant: Some have narrow shoulders, others have a slender waist and the next one has a wider pelvis. Look out for brands or cuts that cater to your figure type.
Figure types
Figure type H: Upper and lower body are the same width or narrow, barely waist
With this type of figure, you should take care to emphasize your femininity and create unavailable curves visually through clothing. For example, with highly waisted, flared skirts or waist belt. Statement chains and generally jewelry can also help.
Figure type V: Wider shoulders, the body becomes narrower towards the bottom
In the case of sporty shoulders, one should take a back seat and emphasize the slender legs and cuffs. Uni-colored tops with V-neck create a good balance. Trousers and skirts may gladly stand in the focus and show off with colors and patterns.
Figure type X: Shoulders and hips are equally wide, narrow waist
The most feminine of all figure types should skillfully stage his curves. For example, with narrow pencil skirts, high waistbands and waisted tops. However, the clothes should definitely fit well to achieve the wow effect.
Figure type O: The center of the body is slightly wider than the rest
If you are rather roundish and would like to conceal this, it is best to wear long blazers or longer cardigans, combined with slender trousers and skirts. A V-neck is more flattering than a round neck. Basically it should be a bit purer, rather wear darker colors on the stomach and tan trousers. Patterns and colors rather “outside” than jacket or cloth. Even long chains are good for stretching.
Figure type A: Top narrow, wider hips
A clever choice of clothes can make this type of figure look more balanced: The slender upper body and shoulders can be accentuated by eye-catching tops, colors or patterns, shoulder flaps or shawls, while the legs and hips can be set to more subdued colors. Straight trousers and skirt cuts stretch optically.
Pro Tip: For quick conversions, always keep updated measurements as close to your body as possible without any clothes in the way. Keep this information handy by saving it on your phone or securing it inside your wallet.
