It is undeniable these days that K-pop albums have seen a rise in the number of listeners and these listeners have agreed that in some albums, certain B-side tracks steal the limelight from the Title Tracks and overshadow them.
Some of the B-side tracks that have stolen the thunder according to the fandoms were discussed recently at an online forum.

It is the tenth track on their repackaged album that was released on January 10, Dimension: Answer. “Blessed-Cursed” is the title track on the album and while it did well in many ways, “Polaroid Love” was a showstopper.
