“La Di Da” becomes Everglow’s 3rd music video to surpass 100M views on YouTube after “Dun Dun” and “Adios“, an achievement only a few 4th gens have achieved. The release of “La Di Da” captured the attention of many listeners with its retro throwback and strong message towards all their haters. The song hitting 100M views became highly anticipated after Sihyeon promised Forevers a ‘Smurf make-up’ cover of “La Di Da” at their latest comeback, Last Melody, showcase interview.
“La Di Da” was released last year on September 21st as the title track of the mini-album –77.82 x -78.29. Shortly after its release, the song was not only widely appreciated by Forevers and K-Pop fans but the magazine and news critics alike, making a significant contribution to K-pop in 2020. As Billboard stated, “When a group drops the greatest song of 2020 less than two years into their career, you can’t help but feel hopeful for the future of K-pop music at large.”
