  1. 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 STAYC – 2 LOVE -- Inkigayo 260621.

    Everything one might expect and want from a Kpop summer track. I was going to post the 1TheK performance video, but then I saw this stage and was taken by Seeun's bob and the pale yellows of her outfit.

  6. Every weekend I look back at the preceding week in Kpop and pick out a music video or performance that have particularly liked. This week I have chosen tripleS – BabyFlower -- Suit Dance.

    Even though I have delighted in the possibilities that large groups like LOONA or WJSN have been able to develop on account of the number of their members, the 24 strong tripleS is too big even for me. As for the Objekts, Seasons, Gravity , Cosmo and the various subunits ...no, it's all too much for me.

    Casual listener though I am, I have enjoyed a number of their releases and I like this one very much. The anime influenced sound works well and this video shows off the choreography better than do the music show stages. I love the signature "la la la" and don't care if the concluding high note owes as much to vocal processing as it does to vocal prowess.

    With regard to outfits, this suit dance provides variations on a restrained theme, a co-ordination without dull uniformity that I find appealing.

  11. RESCENE -- Runaway -- SBS 260426
    youtu.be/ltc0VGEM5BQ?si=Cl7Njb

    I think this is the last stage of the current promotion. What a shame that they did not win on any of the music shows. Perhaps they would have done if "The Show" were still running.

    In this live stage one can hear that the two strongest vocalists are Minami (black jacket and black skirt) and Liv (argyle knit top and black skirt).

    @pixelcats and I will just have to agree to disagree about the big clumpy boots, but I hope I'm not alone in admiring the stylist's coordination of the colours.

    My bias Liv looks so good with that hairstyle.

    ....from this article:

    korea.net/NewsFocus/HonoraryRe

    I wish that Umji had kept her natural hair colour, as seen in the article illustration, for the Kazakh stage. The colouring there combined with the make up results in her looking washed out.

    Eunha's tank top communicates her cute yet sexy appeal, but the winning outfit for me is SinB's, with the motion of the sheer fabric both showing and complementing the motion of her body as she dances.

    Overall , I think the designer Hwang Leesle successfully married elements of communal tradition to the individual tastes of three contemporary women.

    I hope the audience appreciated the outfits. They certainly seemed to enjoy "Bop Bop". Perhaps some of those singing along there belonged to....

  14. 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 RESCENE – Runaway -- Just Dance -- Genie .

    One of the things I love about Kpop is its sheer abundance. Not only do lots of groups release lots of music with a frequency that makes the western pop industry look miserly, but most releases will have, on account of music show performances, dance practice videos , and so on, a multiplicity of versions.

    So after my last week's posting of the RESCENE -- Runaway MV as #KpopOfTheWeek and midweek postings of music show stages, I come now to this wonderful video in which the simplicity of set and styling allow the group to engage us to the full through their dancing.

    The original MV was one that I enjoyed because of its dream like blend of school story and fantasy. Yet I also like this performance video for the reason that I so often enjoy videos of this type; they allow me to pull away from the specifics of narrative and concept and be enchanted instead by the sight and sound of performance.

    The outfits facilitate this enchantment, and I am relieved that this video shows the girls not to be under the heel of the #BigClumpyBoot lobby!

    Feeling quite energized at the moment, as a consequence of that strange amalgam of a poor night's sleep being followed by a successful day in the classroom.

    So I feel oddly buzzed and will therefore create a thread about a stage from one of my favourite groups, RESCENE.

    RESCENE -- RUNAWAY -- M Countdown 260416
    youtu.be/VB_vtps_wus?si=NJovf6

    Since I keep a playlist of my favourite groups performing in all black outfits, this stage was an immediate save for me. There is a lot to like here both to hear and to see, but I'm afraid I have to draw attention to a styling horror -- the footwear.

    Yesterday I noted the delicately understated white shoes that the girls wore for their 260415 Show Champion

    No such luck today. The boots they wear resemble some orthopedic footwear, or perhaps, just as bad if not worse, what visitors to Disneyland see on ...

    ,,,, this fancam from four years ago came to mind. This shoe style is so much more flattering.

    In fact, I would give the whole outfit an A, and I am pleased she wore it for one of my favourite VIVIZ tracks.

    Although I wouldn’t put XG in my top tier of groups, I’ve definitely been warming up to them since the release of “Gala” last year. The MV for “Hypnotize” is striking, but I’ve chosen this stage because dancing seems appropriate for the disco/house/club sound. Chisa looks great, especially with her pink pixie cut!

    AKB48 alumna Hitomi looks adorable in her beret here. I hope I'm not hurting anybody's feelings when I say that when it comes to idol headwear, my love of the beret is equalled only by my loathing of the baseball cap.

    I always seek out "Say My Name" B sides because I liked "Goldilocks Water" so much.

    Not so long ago, the group was performing "Bad Idea", another B side from their most recent album. I'm afraid that Hitomi's attempts during these stages to look fierce were unconvincing.

    "Hard To Love" is much better both musically and in performance.

    Anyway, here's to Hitomi's success in her continuing idol career after AKB48 and IZ*ONE.

    PS: I also love Dohee's little Chanel inspired jacket.

    Every Sunday 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 izna – Racecar.

    A difficult choice this week, but I finally settled on this “Racecar” stage.

    The song does not have a fully sung chorus, but I am not one of those who make it an inflexible rule to damn the “empty chorus” The prechorus works very well, and I like the vocals. I do wish the song had been extended.

    I chose this stage because a restrained use of colour achieved that “unity without uniformity” look which I find so appealing. Kpop does not have to be all eyepopping colour and more of everything.

    Look at the reply I am appending to this post to compare this stage with ….

  28. Every Sunday 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 Hearts2Hearts – Pretty Please.

    This prerelease was a nice surprise to have before the comeback proper in October. I liked the song itself, so very SM girl group in its sound, and particularly enjoyed the singing of Yuha, Carmen, and Ye-on. Although the first rap fitted in so well, the second did not, or at least not to my ears. I was also slightly disappointed that the production for this cute song did not have smooth purity heard in “The Chase”; what was that male voice doing? I’ve heard that effect before, although I can’t remember where exactly. Probably somebody who knows more about music production than I do can say more about this.

    I chose this stage because I like seeing the full choreography and the stylist did not incorporate those hideous overalls that have disfigured other “Pretty Please” stages. A-na looked especially pretty in the celadon top and with her hair up.

    VIVIZ -- EUNHA -- Full Moon @ ULSAN SUMMER FESTIVAL -- (FANCAM)
    youtu.be/TXkDDm1lDlI?si=m9w4aZ

    This is already one of my favourite fancams.

    (How lucky I feel, having been born into a Britain with three channels of black and white television, that I can now watch the beautiful Kpop idol Eunha sing and dance without the restrictions of broadcast schedules!

    I know there are many downsides to this media and information explosion, but we should not forget the ways in which it has changed the world for the better.)

    Contrary to my usual preference for the dressy over the casual in Kpop styling, I prefer the outfits here to those worn in the stage I have recently featured in #KpopOfTheWeek .

    A few seconds that strike me in this fancam are those following 0:34. Eunha stands, with her attention, I would guess, completely devoted to listening for her cue.

    These moments of selfless concentration in performance can be so wonderful to see, let alone experience. Here's Eunha in another such moment...

  31. Billlie -- Siyoon

    I love the outfit that Siyoon is wearing here.

    It's a refreshing change from the normal school uniform look.
