[MV] BTS - 2.0


Feels like deja vu. Last big set of MVs I caught up with ended on SWIM. I'll end on 2.0 today... still a couple weeks behind. As much as the vocal production (as always) annoys me in this one and the chorus is too repetitive for me, the performance is fucking rad. Bangtan being thoroughly Bangtan with the energy.

I had cracked up so hard seeing the teaser for this with such a literal Oldboy reference to that famous fight scene. So seeing the whole MV completely commit to that fully, truly delighted me. Great cinematography, great styling, great idea, great choreography, great execution, great elevator interlude. That whole section from the elevator to RM's verse with the rest lined up doing the canon and sideward slides. Perfection. Fun shit.

[MV] Baby DONT Cry - Bittersweet

[MV] YUNA - Ice Cream

[MV] DOK2 & LEE HI - You & Me


Don't think I've ever seen such a hard launch in the industry. Lol! Lee Hi and Dok2 announced they were in a relationship, had founded a label together (808 HI RECORDINGS), and were releasing this single. Well, okay then. Good luck, I suppose!

[MV] NMIXX (feat. Pabllo Vittar) - TIC TIC (Pt./Kor./Eng.)


The track kinda annoys me 😅, but a fun collab! Everyone looks and sounds great. Always here for drag queens in K-Pop spaces.
