Every weekend I look back at the preceding week in Kpop and pick out a music video or performance that I have particularly liked. This week I have chosen Ji Won -- Call Me Up.
Ji Won, formerly of Cherry Bullet, with a charmingly catchy pop song. An effective opening with the chorus and a nice build in the prechorus win me over. The stylist has used red and navy blue to good effect in Ji Won's outfit.
I note that the song was composed by Anna Lindgren, the Finland Swede who also worked on TWICE -- The Feels, Kep1er -- Giddy, and many other Kpop hits. Why are these Nordic countries such fertile grounds for pop music?
I've chosen to feature this stage because I don't like the MV one bit. It's not because it's AI; -- I still haven't sorted out what I think about that technology -- but on account of it being just an animation. What was stopping the agency producing something with Ji Won herself? I also have to say that I do not love the chibi influenced style of the MV.
