With the bravery of a storyteller, Jassin delves into the complexities of being in your twenties, inviting listeners on a journey of perpetual self-examination."
"His lyrics urge us to reflect on life's neglected corners: "How can I keep opening and closing myself? / Tell me, how can you do that? / How can people pretend they're anything but a child? / Why does everyone want to transform into something they already are?" Each line resonates with a raw honesty that elicits nostalgia, crafting moments that send shivers down the spine."
