The EP contains six tracks, including the pre-released video track "Allergy"[A] and the lead single "Queencard". The group retains their reputation as a "self-produce" group by having three members Soyeon, Minnie, and Yuqi taking the lead in the album production.
The album conveys a message about self-esteem and confidence by discussing topics about finding self-confidence, loving, enjoying, and figuring out oneself as an adult, using a more light and comical style that has a less serious tone compared to the group's previous releases. Sonically, it experiments with a variety of genres such as pop rock, electro pop, pop ballad, and dream pop, with its songs incorporating newtro, rock, and minimalistic production. The album took the form of a High Teen, and a Y2K-inspired visual. It also marks the group's condition of "I" series, following I Love and I Never Die (2022).
I Feel received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who praised its catchy production, visuals, the less serious approach to its topics, and the members creative control over the production. Commercially, it debuted at number one on the Circle Chart, with over one million copies sold in its first week. The album also managed to reach the top forty in Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Scotland, Sweden, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
The album was supported by a pre-release music video for its second track, "Allergy", which peaked at number seven on Billboard Taiwan and at number 18 on the Circle Digital Chart. This was followed by the lead single "Queencard", which scored the group's third number one hit on said Chart. To promote the album, the group embarked on their second worldwide tour, I Am Free-ty World Tour, beginning in June 2023.
Background and release
[edit]On April 18, 2023, Cube Entertainment announced the group's comeback on May 15 by releasing a video teaser with style resembling that of a trailer of a series. The video revealed the titles of the new songs as well as the credits.[2] The announcement was also accompanied by a concept poster featuring a drawing of a Trump's queen card, with the letter 'G', representing the G in the group's name, engraved in the upper left corner of the poster instead of 'Q', in which means queen. In addition, phrases such as 'Top 10' at the top right and '(G)I-dle Original Series' at the bottom.[3]

Beginning on April 26, the group released a character introduction video, inspired by the 2004 movie Mean Girls.[6] On the same day, they released a "character map", an introduction to each character that was played by the members.[7][8] On the following day April 27, the group released a video with the title "Spoiler Alert: [I feel] #Yuqi" that showcased snippets of the fourth track, "All Night".[9] On April 28, the group released Shuhua's version of the spoiler video, which showcased snippets of the sixth track, "Peter Pan".

Conception and title
[edit]'I Feel' is an album containing (G)I-dle's declaration that they will love themselves as they are, no matter how they feel and that they want to boost the listeners self-esteem.[19]
Soyeon noted in the album press release that she was inspired by the 2018 American movie I Feel Pretty when composing the lead single "Queencard", she stated that she wanted to make the album and its lead single sound like a comedy movie "that describes the daily lives of those in their 20s and their concerns".[20] Thus the group took on "a new challenge" to dramatize the album through tracks "that develop around one single story in which each member has their own character", in which Soyeon plays the character of an "aspiring queen bee",[20] while Miyeon is a social media influencer, Minnie is a lonely gym trainer, and Yuqi and Shuhua are popular besties.[6] The narrative begins with the music video of the pre-release video "Allergy", and the story continues in the music video of the lead single "Queencard", where Soyeon realizes that "true beauty comes from self-confidence after finding out that even the queen bees have their own insecurities and compare themselves with others."[20] Visually, Soyeon draws inspiration from "high-teen" and Y2K throughout the music videos, artwork, and album teasers.[21][22]
Music and lyrics
[edit]The album is primarily a pop record and consists of six tracks that incorporate a variety of genres, such as pop rock, electro pop, pop ballad, and dream pop, with its songs incorporating newtro, rock, R&B, and minimalistic production. All tracks were produced by Soyeon, while Minnie and Yuqi served as co-composer and lyricist for "Lucid," "Paradise," "All Night," and "Peter Pan" respectively. In addition to the members, a variety of songwriter-producers also participated, including longtime collaborators such as Pop Time, BreadBeat, and Siixk Jun, with whom the group has worked on previous songs.[23][24]
Theme
[edit]"If we had done music that taught and gave lessons before, this time we wanted to express the songs [message] with a light and comical point along with the motif of the movie I Feel Pretty.
—Jeon Soyeon explaining the art direction of the album, Electronic Times.[25]
According to Soyeon, the subject matter of I Feel revolves around conveying a message about self-esteem and confidence, of which the latter two are recurring themes in the group's previous work .[21] In comparison to the group's previous releases, which took more of a serious tone, the group wanted this time to express the intended message in "a light and comical way, along with the motif of the movie I Feel Pretty."[25] The album overall discusses the message of self-esteem, which "changes according to one's thoughts and emotions".[26] According to Soyeon, the album narrates a story that "expresses the daily life and worries of people in their 20s".[27]
Songs
[edit]The opening track, "Queencard" is characterized by a "newtro vibe"[28] where its lyrics talk about a person who "realizes that true beauty comes from self-confidence after finding out that even the queen bees have their own insecurities and compare themselves with others".[20] The second track, "Allergy", is a pop-punk song[29] with lyrics that expresses the double meaning of wanting to love themselves while they resent themself by comparing themselves to others.[30] The third track, "Lucid" is a dreamy song characterized by a "unique" bass-organ harmony.[25] Followed by "All Night", a pop song that is driven by a "low-slung", elastic bassline with heavy elements of rock riffs.[29] Its lyrics revolve around a protagonist who wants to enjoy herself as she attempts to ignore other people's glares and enjoy the night.[31] The fifth track, "Paradise", is an emotional electro-pop, synth and pop ballad song built around a "catchy" acoustic guitar riff and a groovy swing beat.[26][29] Its lyrics revolve around comforting someone who is tired of everyday life and struggles "to become an adult defined by society".[26] Followed by the closing track, "Peter Pan", is a minimalistic song[31] built around a "bright" instrumental including acoustic guitar, strums and snapping beats.[29] Its lyrics were described as "witty" lyrics that express the confusion of 20-year-olds who are in the process of figuring out their adult lives.[26]
