You're So Fine (CNBLUE song)

"You're So Fine" (Ireoke Yeppeonna) is a song by South Korean pop rock band CNBLUE. It is the lead single to the band's sixth mini-album Blueming and was released on April 4, 2016.

Composition
"You're So Fine" is an "upbeat" pop rock track. The song was written and composed by vocalist Jung Yong-hwa, and is composed in the key of A♭ major using common time with a tempo of 118 beats per minute. Jung began working on the song while conceiving "Cinderella"; the song lyrics were written in 2016. In crafting the lyrics, Jung paid special attention to detail in order to capture "the warm feeling of brass" in order to portray his personality. He was inspired by the title of a news article which read "Was she this pretty?" to write the song. He felt that it "sounded very nice" when he sang the phrase, which emitted a "warm feeling".

Critical reception
Writing for Fuse, columnist Jeff Benjamin compared CNBLUE's musical expansion to that of American band Maroon 5. Describing "You're So Fine" as a "disco-tinged" song, he noted that the band integrates "feel-good brass and horns" in which Jung's vocals "fits... like a glove". Benjamin pointed out at the "soulful sound" was already present in K-pop, but expressed that "CNBLUE finds a way to make it sound fresh compared to its contemporaries". He also highlighted similarities with "Hold My Hand" from the band's previous album 2gether (2015). Critic Kim Ji-ha of TV Daily expressed surprise that CNBLUE returned "with a sweet" song.
