Brown Eyed Girls’ Narsha’s music video of her solo debut track BBI RI BOP A has been hit with religious controversy. These accusations stem from the provocative and sacrilegious uses of the laurels and the shawl being drenched in blood, etc.
Narsha’s company defended these accusations by stating:
“The religious controversy that arose from the music video is due to over-excessive interpretations”
“We weren’t abusing or belittling religious subject matter. Instead, it was a production implying the symbolism in the lyrics and overall story”
Director Hwang Soo Ah, who produced the music video, also expressed:
“The laurel that Narsha was wearing on her head was used to bring out her feelings of penance. The blood-drenched shawl was to imply the meaning of her painful past”
I can see why these religious allegations arose, but at the same time, the music video nicely incorporated these religious materials to bring out the symbolism of the story. Check out the BBI RI BOP A music video again below and share your thoughts on the issue.

But I guess they wanted to have some annoying repetition in there somewhere.
