The 1theK music video for "AQUA" by Choongju Ji-C, the project pairing Ji Suk-jin (지석진) and Ji Ye-eun (지예은), drew a wave of positive comments centered on the song itself. The most-liked reactions were direct: "No, seriously, the song is really good?" (아니 진지하게 노래 너무 좋은디….?) and "This song is so, so good too" (이번 노래도 너무너무 좋아요). Several commenters described the track as exceeding expectations, with one writing, "Wow, it's better than I expected." A number of viewers used the comments to rally behind the project, with one asking, "Everyone who supports and loves Choongju Ji-C, raise your hand."

A recurring thread praised the song as breezy and easy to listen to, with several commenters calling it a fitting summer release. "Listening to it feels refreshing... hope this song does well," one wrote, while others said "The song is so refreshing" and "I like summer songs." Viewers also singled out the two performers, describing both voices as "so clear and crisp" and calling the dancing "so cute," with one comment noting the "father-and-daughter chemistry." Others tied the release to the earlier track "Milkshake" (밀크쉐이크), saying they had been fans since then, and the music video itself drew comments like "The MV is so lovely." At least one viewer pushed for more content, writing, "We urgently need a behind-the-scenes video."
