This weeks music monday will get you wasted with Troublemaker’s Now
The Troublemaker duo is back
After a two year break
And for a second effort, they’ve totally outdone themselves.
We’ve got another awesome song!
With a much better video!
While their debut video for us
Was awkward in many places with
Lots of forced sexiness.
This video surpasses it a hundredfold.
Their debut video pretty much felt like
Hyuna!
Oh, with ah Hyunseung as her backup-dancer
But with this video
they’re both dynamic, together
And although I like this song
And prefer this video
I actually like the sound of their
Debut song a lot better
But that’s not to say that I
Didn’t like the video
It’s probably one of the most interesting
Kpop videos of this year.
I liked this video the first time I saw it
Back when Rihanna did it
OOOH
Come on don’t act like the similarities weren’t blaring.
Making out in a car with the girl on top,
Snuggling on the hood of a car,
In a wheat field,
Spinning cars around them,
Playing with sparkles at night
All set to the subject of
A volatile substance abuse fuelled passion
Full of smoking, drinking and vomiting relationship.
Sure, it’s not like Rihanna owns the concept
Of a bad druggy relationship,
But the similarities really lay on
How the director’s chose to film it
The locations, the images and
Even the filters and the colouring
Of the videos are all too similar
To think this is a coincidence,
Especially considering how Rihanna’s video’s
One of the most popular videos on Youtube ever
With over 300 million views
That’s not a coincidence, that’s a copy
We often complain about how unoriginal
Kpop videos can be,
It’s probably one of the most interesting
Kpop videos of this year.
This is the video that has more
Talking points to it apart from small differences
Like Ohmagerd a new hairstyle or
That’s a new dance!
And although it’s not my personal cup of tea
I applaud the video for showing us
Something different in Kpop,
Even if it’s a remake of Rihanna’s video
WHAT Wait Who said that!?
I mean god damn look at all that passion making out
I remember back when K-pop videos
Got artist peeing themselves whenever someone
Of the opposite sex so much as hold their hands.
Remember the good old days?
Just this year Girl’s Generation go on a date
And squealed when he touches them
And they freaked the hell out
When he knocks on their door
Here Troublemaker put all that lackluster
Boring-ass face-mushing Korean drama kissing to shame
THAT’S AWESOME
And though I know some K-pop purists
Like the videos for their innocence,
I don’t mind seeing different things happening in K-Pop
...That aren’t always coming from G-D
GD you crazy guy you.
However you have done the sexy touchy
And make-out concept for two videos
In a row now, and I’m hoping
That your third video might change things up.
After all it is possible for a guy and a girl
To be in a video together without
Always horn-dogging each other...
Otherwise you can be falling into a different cycle of
cliché K-pop videos.
Perhaps a nice battle of backgammon or croquet?
HMMM?
Now if you see the uncut version of the video
It has GUNS, and MURDERS and SEVERED HAND in it.
Didn’t really get that... Severed hand part..
Anyways! Watch it if you want to see
More of the story, so you can get a better
Understanding of where Hyunseung gets all the money.
Basically he’s like a hit man and
He get’s a lunch bag full of cash
After he sees some dude leave a bag in the garbage
And I’m glad the uncut video explained it
Because the regular version
Made it seem like he got all the cash
From the Budweiser product placement
Holy not even subtle batman
I mean SM’s product placements are knowing
What their Genie unclosable ads here
But the Budweiser room as they
Drink Budweiser with a Budweiser fridge
Filed with Budweiser.
Budweiser’s a funny word..
WAIT. Let me get this straight
You’re making lots of money as a hit man,
And your booze of choice is Budweiser?
Do you see rappers going into clubs
being like, BUDWEISER FOR EVERYONEEE!
How about like a bottle of Crystal or like Cognac
Or like some other expensive booze
That starts with a C.
Champagne!
Oh wait!
Maybe this attempts to make them seem as ‘Murican as possible.
They’re in their trailer
With their ‘Murican money
Drinkin ‘Murican beer
Recreating ‘Murican pop videos.
WHAT HUH WHO SAID THAT?
Also, Hyuna I’ve discovered your secret
Look in my eyes and answer me honestly
Are you a wizard, Hyuna?
Because your using money like
It’s a magic wand
At 1:45 you slapped Hyunseung with money so hard
That a cigarette pops into his mouth, not out of it,
And then at 1:52 you slap him with your
Magic money again so hard that his shirt explodes
Off of his body.
How did you do that!?
Too bad the uncut version didn’t include
The rest of that scene because gets better from there
TAKE YOUR MONEY!
Huh....? The hell?
Huh.... What the?
I got this again! Fuhahaha Boys ~
And one final thing:
I think Korean stylists are out to get me
Because this turtleneck trend is getting ridiculous!
OMG! I have this great idea.
We’re gonna take turtleneck and
We’re gonna cut them in half.
YES!! I like this idea! Down with turtlenecks!
Noo! I meant we should cut it
So that it’s like a croptop
And that way you could wear
Turtlenecks all year long!
*Martina cries*
Last week we asked you to choose between
SHINee and Girl’s Generation for
Best military outfits and
SHINee beat GG with 2000 votes.
OMG why u so SM biased?
No wait.... wait...?
This week we’re putting
Troublemaker up against G Dragon’s Crooked
For the best destructive drunken video
Tough choice! Both are really well done
Both with the same idea of out of control substance abuse
Both really so close with each other.
I’m predicting in January
We’re gonna see BILASA drunk and
Naked, doing the sproutdance with a lampshade on.
It’s gonna happen
Leave your votes in the comments or the poll on our site
