[M/V Teaser] GENBLUE (젠블루) – “BADASS”
GENBLUE are back with a punch, and their new teaser for “BADASS” shows a side of the group that feels both playful and dangerously confident. Dropped on September 15 through their official YouTube channel, the short clip has already sparked a wave of excitement across international fans.
The Concept: Mean Girls Take Over Campus
From the first few seconds, “BADASS” throws viewers into a bold, schoolyard rebellion aesthetic. Each member brings a different vibe: Ayeon declaring she doesn’t want to go to school, Yuan and Ayako leaning into cheeky student roles, and Nico chewing gum with a swagger that fans immediately picked up on as “bad girl energy.”
This isn’t just a cute concept, it’s GENBLUE leaning into a mischievous, almost cinematic “mean girl” storyline, and fans are here for it. The teaser even hints at new visual elements like a male student appearance, something fans noted as a first in GENBLUE’s M/V world.
Fan Reactions: Exploding with Hype
The comments section under the teaser is packed with love, showing just how wide GENBLUE’s global reach has become. A few highlights:
“超級期待！！！拍查某 'BADASS'” – Fans in Taiwan praising the rebellious image.
“컴백 기대돼😍” – Korean fans calling this comeback one of their most anticipated.
“OMG SO CUTE 💗” – English-speaking fans are equally locked in.
Others pointed out the major visual upgrade in production quality, with one fan writing, “MV整個質感大提升！！！！！救命🤯🤯🤯🤯.”
Whether it’s in Mandarin, Korean, or English, the consensus is clear: GENBLUE just leveled up.
Why “BADASS” Matters
For a group known for balancing cuteness and cool, this teaser feels like GENBLUE’s boldest shift yet. They’re not abandoning their playful side, but instead maturing it into something sharper, cheekier, and more visually polished. The styling, choreography hints, and facial expressions all scream confidence.
The fandom has been waiting months for a comeback, and this teaser proves it’s going to be worth the wait. With Ayako’s playful artistry, Lili’s energy, Yuan’s charm, and Nico’s attitude front and center, “BADASS” could be the track that cements GENBLUE’s reputation as not just an up-and-coming girl group, but a group with staying power.
Final Thoughts
It’s only a teaser, but “BADASS” already has fans replaying it endlessly and dissecting every frame. GENBLUE’s hot-girl comeback is officially on the horizon, and if the full M/V delivers on what the teaser promised, this era might be their most defining one yet.
