K-Pop: The Concept Machine; Exploring the Best/Worst of 2011
Share on Tumblr16 Written by Natalie On December 26, 2011
The concept is an integral part of promotions in the Korean music industry. It is the first thing fans see leading up to comebacks and debuts; the stuff that hype is made of. Some concepts are amazing, fitting seamlessly with the music they are paired with, while others leave us scratching our heads and wondering what we just saw. The Best of 2011: Concept poll that was featured here on Seoulbeats showed that you readers were really loving the the disco-infused “Roly Poly” from T-ara, Sunny Hill’s darkly imaginative Midnight Circus and the “We’re not going Retro” retro concept from the Wonder Girls, but the hands-down winner was the Brown Eyed Girls. Their political theme caught the attention of the readers and writers of this site. Let’s take a deeper look at what made that concept so amazing, as well as few of the other concepts we loved and hated here at Seoulbeats this year!
Best Concepts
Natalie: I want to begin with my favorite concept for this year, Brown Eyed Girls’ “Sixth Sense.” What I loved about this concept was how strong it was and how it made a statement using symbolism. Normally, K-pop concepts are all surface and no substance. They’re pretty and fun to look at but rarely have any underlying meaning. Brown Eyed Girls, however, dodged away from the usual gimmicks seen in K-pop and instead created a more original, girl-powerful concept about politics and feminism. In the music video, the girls are rebels against a totalitarian government as well as symbols of oppression. Ga-In, drenched, is confined to a chair and Jea lays in a large wooden wreath in a lake. Narsha looked like a sexy cat as she rolled around in the sand and Miryo, chained, aggressively attacked some microphones. Their concept can be taken in several different ways but I took it as rebelling against conformity and control. Because of the cleverness of the concept, the powerful theme, and the age-appropriate sexiness, “Sixth Sense” is the best concept of the year to me.
Maddie: Brown Eyed Girls’ fourth album was described as, “Resistance for freedom of expression through music via sixth sense.” and both the album and their promotional song conveyed just that. Breaking away from synth-based and electronic/dance pop music, “Sixth Sense” was a fusion of soulful vocals and classical arrangements inspired by Shostakovich’s Leningard Symphony No. 7. From dark eye make-up to vampy military inspired outfits, their reputed fierce and provocative image was without fault. From the strong cello to the three-part high note towards end of the song, they left audiences not only impressed but with a nice reminder of their undisputed level of talent which can’t be “tamed” nor imitated. Their concept and album were both expressive and liberating and that was exactly what these ladies sought to do.
