Amazing song, it could do with a less provocative dance. I hope they get popular to the point where they can have great songs like this without having to put themselves into dancing like this.
I saw this earlier and...it sucks man. The song is good bop but this choreo is tragique. I LOVE a good thot dance but this is so lifeless, it's not sexy at all. It's legit 'one two step, *half-heartedly rub erogenous zone*, one two step, *boredly shake ass*, one two step, *crotch related move*'. These girls are talented, they and this song deserve better.
They do but their company is utter fucking shit, ugh.
They deserve to endorse a great song that they love and in a way that makes them comfortable, but it's a catch-22 either supporting or not supporting them. Mess.
Urgghhhh With stuff like this where workers are getting screwed over, my belief is to always support them as much as possible. They know best what will help them and maybe record sales & views or whatever will help with independence until they can either leave or get better management. Sucks all round tho.
Btw, how come a lot of girl groups all wear the same outfit? Like, not even variations on one outfit, just literally the same outfit. I haven't noticed it as much with boy groups or smaller female groups, I don't necessarily mind it but I do prefer individualised looks personally.
IA, I support them because they've been through so much shit but sadly now their company is capitalizing off people's pity by releasing all the mutual disrespect they have. So on one hand I want to support them (and will) because I want what they've fought for to pay off, but at the same time I don't want them to continue to be exploited (yeah right.) Seems most people feel that the best course of action (besides #freestellar) is get them to a point of popularity where they can back off on this kind of choreo and still succeed. Otherwise their company is just gonna keep pushing them to do more and more weirdass shit to get people's attention. And then probably drop them anyway.
Sadly it's really hard in Kpop for groups/artists to break free from shitty contracts and cmpanies, esp if they have a "slave" one although I think those are illegal now. Plus these girls are probably in so much doubt anyway they can't afford to legally break their contracts either by buying them out or hiring a lawyer ala everyone in SM, lol.
Dunno about Stellar specifically but a lot of it is probably budget re: the outfits. Easier to put everyone in the same outfit as opposed to paying for a stylist's time to make unique looks for everyone, unless they're a hit group. Or a total poor nugu group bringing their own clothes from home lmao.
You're making me think of GFriend now and all their tragic jumper outfits.
I feel like girl groups always get shitty choreo that is way below what they can handle because the nasty ahjussis would hate to see them demonstrating some actual athleticism LOL.
Edit for clarification:: Def not shaming them, but my God, they look so dead... If they owned the shit out of this, & were confident, I'd be all, "HELL YEAH YOU WERK THAT OUTFIT/DANCE!!", but I can't shake the feeling of uncomfortableness watching this...
I love the song, but the dance....they look so uncofortable. and I think the background dancers outfits are much sexier than the girls. Because yes, you can be extremely sexy fully covered. I want these girls to be completely comfortable with what they do
people understimate the power of pants and full cover I can see these girls being super sexy with black pants, a crop top (if you want to show skin, a bit of stomach, not too much is pretty good) or a shirt that has an open back (backs are sexy) smokie eye make up and red lips. BAM
the song is one of the best songs to come out of korea in a longgg time.
& there are far more provocative dance numbers, but this one has an extra aura of creepiness that made me look away several times. sending good vibes to these girls in hope their torment ceases :(
Wow it makes me so mad that this is legit one of the best girl group songs I have heard in 2015, and they've paid it dirt. Like, is the CEO not confident in the catchiness of the song, and the girls themselves? The choreo and outfits are so beyond unnecessary that it takes you out of it.
