LOL. How pathetic can you get, really? They change their image over night to hip hop of all things? That is the very definition of poser but Koreans are too naive to figure that out. They look like some tough girls now - dont mess with them lol.
It's ok if that's what they choose to do, but do they even know why hip hop was born and where the originators drew their inspiration from? Violence, selling drugs and murdering in the streets. I want to puke every time I see a straight edge Korean girl trying to act hard. They have absolutely NO idea how stupid they look to Westerners. I feel embarrassed for them actually.
Whatever sells i guess... |

Wow, I love it when people make themselves look stupid.
You should look a bit more into the roots of hip hop before claiming it originated in the violent street scene.
Hip hop didn't really become violent until the mid-80s when the gangster rap scene on the west coast took off. See NWA.
Furthermore, hip hop to this day is not just about drugs and guns. There are other styles as well. |

You didn't actually watch the video, did you?
They look about as 'hard' as the Olsen twins when they were on Full House... and now that I think about it, their clothing is pretty similar as well. So hardcore. |

I was speaking about rap from the 80's on...and whatever you want to call it, it's crap anyway. |

just loved the brown and black eyes semi-wrinkling at me from plastic-TV-land but too much dyed red hair and in fact too many girls. digged the pink-haired chick and i think one actually wore blue hair. however, all that dyed red and blond red-blond streaked hair on the rest of those girls sort of left me thinking that i was peering into a Korean hair-dye special discount commercial hair salon.
loved the chick with the natural black hair, teenager look(call me old-fashioned but black is still beautiful where im from). the dancing techniques and modern pop dance choreography ive seen a million times before by similar Asian and especially Kpop groups and even though i shudve xpected as much, its getting old, and, i find myself hoping for something way more new and creatively original for younger fans digging Kpop and this overall pop genre in general.
the song itself was a tad boring except for a bunch of young cute Korean girls bouncing about trying to tell of some kind of young love story through music but doing it through a high fantastical, but im sure unintentionally, superficially modern, nearly comical caricatural satire leaves the video shallow and romantically pretentious.
the music is drab and without real, meaningful substance that a young Korean adult or Korean teenager can in real-life learn from or connect to on a daily routine social level. the beat was slow and empty, the tune was hum-drum and the singing was sub-par compared to many other Korean female pop singers.
overall, i liked it visually but hated listening to and trying to understand it. |

That song was so bad, I had to stop it every time they switched genre. It took a minute or so for me to rid my mind of the crap I just heard and then I went back and started the song again. The only reason I subjected myself to that torture was I didn't want to be unfair and criticize the song if I hadn't listened to the entire thing. Like so many other K-pop things, they tried to do too many things at one time. The end result: garbage. |

Terrible.
They should stick to being cute. K-poppers just can't pull of the whole hip-hop gangster thing. |

Based on some of the comments on here, I can't tell who has a harder time grasping the difference between fantasy and reality, Koreans "acting hard" or Dave's poster who can't tell that they are selling a "Fantasy" and that Koreans know it's a fantasy.
The song sux. |

I don't care about the song so much as that video isn't really good to spank to.
They're still hot, but I miss the short shorts and high heels those girls wore a few years ago. |

You're absolutely right-- no spankapalooza here. |
