"One More Time (Otra Vez)" is a single by South Korean boy band Super Junior featuring Mexican pop rock band Reik released on October 8, 2018. It was featured in the former's first extended play album, One More Time.

Background

"One More Time (Otra Vez)" featured the vocals of the seven active Super Junior members — Leeteuk, Yesung, Donghae, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Siwon, and Ryeowook. Heechul did not participate in this release due to health concerns.[2] Kyuhyun was in hiatus due to undergoing his mandatory military service since 2017.[3]

On October 1, 2018, SM Entertainment announced that Super Junior would release a single called "One More Time (Otra Vez)" featuring Mexican pop rock band, Reik. This marked only the second time Super Junior had collaborated with a foreign artist, having done so previously with Leslie Grace for "Lo Siento", months prior.[4]

In an interview with Billboard, both groups expressed their admiration for each other during the song's production. Super Junior's leader Leeteuk stated "Reik was highly recommended by everyone. They were so willing to collaborate, and we would like to express our appreciation to them." Reik's leader, Jesús Alberto Navarro Rosas said "It's very exciting to mix Korean and Latin music because they're having such a huge moment globally, and it's great that this collaboration happened."[5]

On November 28, the song was re-released in Japanese along with four additional tracks, "Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!", and "Make You Smile", and their respective instrumental versions. All three tracks were featured in Super Junior's Japanese compilation album, Star in 2021.[6]

Composition

"One More Time (Otra Vez)" is classified as a Latin pop song with a reggaeton melody.[7]

Music video

The music video featured both groups performing the song in MGM Macau, with Reik's instrumental backing complementing Super Junior's choreography. The video shows an aura of luxury and sensuality as the choreography flows smoothly with the melody.[7]

Commercial performance

The song was performed live in Music Core on October 13, followed by a performance in Inkigayo the following day.[8] [9]
