Ga In's "Paradise Lost": K-Pop’s Sexiest/Darkest Song & Video of 2015
Here's why you should pay attention to the starlet who appeared alongside PSY in the crazy "Gentleman" video
Remember when the world collectively watched PSY's "Gangnam Style" follow-up, the equally ridiculous and slightly sexual "Gentleman" video? Millions were exposed to one of Korea's boldest divas, Ga In, who danced, ate and goofed off alongside the rapper.
Now Ga In's returned to the music scene with a brilliant new single, "Paradise Lost," that's ruffling feathers in her native Korea and around the world for its dark and sexy themes. The track balances classic and modern-day music elements with ominous strings, sparse drums, EDM flourishes and booming beats. But there's an undeniably spooky sentiment in "Paradise Lost," with Ga In's vocals reverberating through your headphones like ghostly howls while the percussion on the chorus sounds like an military death march.

Choi Woo Shik – interview for Allure

I thought the synergy the two of you showed during the photo shoot went beyond expectations.
Are the pictures good? If it was a photo shoot just with me, it wouldn’t matter, but since I’m shooting this with Uee-nuna, the pictures must be good because I shouldn’t bring her any harm.

happydirections for telling about the apology and also for the screen shot!
tbh i just hope that jackson realizes why people asked him to delete that picture, why it was offensive, why it was wrong and that he didn't just do it to save face bc although he apologized, his apology is still kinda iffy with me - although it's better than we usually get
