10 Catalina
Orange Caramel opening with portrait
ready mermaids this video initially
seemed like a standard pop offering
something’s off though as the girls
start dancing on a giant sushi station
the dancing from inside meat packaging
selling cheaply compared to the octopus
person next to them closing as various
forms of sushi throughout the video they
even bathe in soy sauce
what’s more the slow-motion eating
sequences are both suggestive and a bit
unsettling made all the funnier by
comedian Kim Dae Sung’s performances in
and out of wigs the video shocked its
way to over 17 million views

younger self is picked up by a man
moving for work only to be thrown out of
the car being homeless people fighting
and two mothers arguing in front of
their children the boy captures these
little tumultuous slices of life through
the lens of his camera the video
succeeds thanks to his honest
examination of the isolation one feels
even in a busy city
[Music]
just when he seems ready to give up the
boy meets a man with an open heart he
shows him kindness and so the video ends
with a sense of hope number 8

apologies
oh yeah number six mr. simple Super
Junior hey this k-pop group has taken
the concept of a boy band and pushed it
to the extreme in sync despite their
large numbers they’re always centered
around whichever member is singing their
sets are also impressive jump in between
a room of cube lights and what happens

cleaning a woman pulls out a videotape
of what looks to have been a legendary
night out with the girls finally hitting
the floor after more than four minutes
of intro the women jump right into some
disco inspired dance moves from start to
finish the video plays like a modern
homage to Saturday Night Fever although
at 12 minutes long with credits it’s
more of a short music film than a music
video in the traditional sense this song
was the lead single from the
appropriately titled EP a John Travolta
wannabe and between the outfits and
dance moves it lives up to the name
[Music]
number four I need you BTS

often dance-heavy videos typical of kpop

more Moody and Atmospheric style to
great effect exploring dark themes

stories not all of which seem to have a
happy ending

Jin ho and his mother struggled to make
it work

devastating thanks to some emotive
animation the saddest part however is
the final shot that connects it all to
Kim’s life number 2 Gangnam style psy 1

absurdity opening on a dancing kid and

BIGBANG BIGBANG brought a surprising
amount of depth to this video especially
considering they’re typically surrealist
visuals

becomes an absolute wreck when the two
continue to see each other nonetheless
unable to process his feelings GD lashes
out unaware of what’s really going on
