Reception

[edit]
AXS compared the song's styles to works of American singer Miley Cyrus.

The single "Red" reached number 3 on the Gaon Weekly Digital Chart.[2] On August 6, 2014, Hyuna won her first ever music show award on MBC Music's Show Champion for "Red",[3] and won on the same show again the following week.

Despite calling "Red" "fifty shades of messy," Lucas Villa of AXS praised Hyuna for delivering a "club banger that would make Miley proud."[4] Rolling Stone named "Red" number 5 on their year-end list of the top ten music videos of 2014.[5] "Red" ranked number 1 on Chinese Music Charts for four consecutive days, and has made it to the No. 1 spot on Taiwan's music charts.[6]
