stan talent stan loona To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand SixBomb music videos. The satire is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of korean culture most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Soa's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into her characterisation- her personal philosophy draws heavily from Han Kang literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these MVs, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE.
I read they were supposed to have an AV-themed comeback, and I can see it, but it's not as over-the-top as it would seem from that pitch.
Their company is always pushing some wacky concept, but the music isn't completely terrible. When the beat drops, It sounds like some other song that I can't put my finger on. Most of their stuff sounds like someone's 2009-2014 b-sides
I had the same thought, it sounds very similar to another song (the only thing I can think of now is Pound the Alarm) but I can't quite put my finger on which one.
Was it SixBomb who had the plastic surgery theme? Wasn't there 4 members? I don't hate the song and the video was clearly copying/parodying typical opening scenes from porn without going too over the top and/or uncomfortable. I wish my boobs looked that nice.
