# Gogobebe

"Gogobebe" (고고베베), stylized in all lowercase, is a song by South Korean girl group Mamamoo.

## Release and composition

"Gogobebe" was released on March 14, 2019 as the lead single from White Wind, Mamamoo's ninth EP and the fourth in their "Four Seasons, Four Colors" series of releases. The song is an energetic, reggaeton-influenced pop track that draws inspiration from Kim Gun-mo's song "Zzanga" (2001). During a press conference in which they performed the song, Wheein stated that "'Gogobebe' has the highest level of all the group dances [they] have done so far", referring to the increased difficulty of the song's choreography. The members also revealed that they and their fans wanted the group to perform something more lively after the release of the melancholic Blue;S EP (2018). Billboard stated that the song is "straight-forward electronic pop" and "sees the ladies encouraging listeners to leave the daily stresses of smartphones and stuffy work clothes to shamelessly have fun and drink away their pain".
