f(x) has finally hit 100 million views for 'Electric Shock', which was released in 2012! They join other female kpop idols such as Hyuna, 2NE1, and Girls' Generation in this achievement. Congrats to f(x)!
Electric Shock was one I used to listen to on repeat back when I first got into kpop but f (x)'s music after that is so good I've not listened to it in ages. Going to dig it out tomorrow.
Really happy for them! Red Light and 4 Walls deserve that many views too, they're great music videos.
I was actually in Korea in 2012 when this came out. I was there for a school trip, and I remember my fellow classmates finding this song catchy but also weird. I think they were associating the title with "electro-shock therapy"....
The fashion of this era (and the next one ugh) was so tragic. I remember jamming to this song and being happy they were getting the recognition they deserved while also going "but do they have to look like that???" The beginning of the dark times for Amber's clothes.
