KCMF’s note: This was written by my Korean co-contributor Lim. I’ve done my best to retain the original spirit of his writing while cleaning up the English a little, but not too much, because you know what he means. I have also added my own notes and observations, as well as a lot of redactions.

Though nobody cared for their debut except for Ajussi fans who like to diddle doodle to 20 something girls wearing barbie doll dresses, I took quite an interest in this group who came out with a theme that’s somewhat WTF and kind of cutesy at the same time.

While on the surface the superficial aspect of their video makes them look like it’s just plain old music video about girlfriends discussing on how to stop their boyfriend’s curious hotdog [What?] trying to meet and greet with a new hotdog bun by engaging with their unfaitful BF in light BDSM play to remind him that their bun is the only bun that should be wrapping their boyfriend’s sausage. The song preaches about “Strong girl figuring out how to scold their unfaithful man all night long, making him feel them again.” but it’s more than that. At least that’s the conclusion I made from observing, pleasuring myself in a state of nirvana watching the twofer video aimed at wowing both pervy Ajussi fans and know it all critics. Let me walk you through and give you articulate explanation on the heavy indoctrinated religious messages and celebration of child bearing hips hidden in the video.

The video starts with Yuna, Chanmi and Hyejeong sexting:

“Where you at BB? I want to be fertilized. ”

“I’m in no physical shape to bed you. Let’s copulate some other time.”

“(sad emoji)”

After their husband declined their digital mating call, they then proceed to talk about group pleasuring. “Just us girls for tonight.” The top hen of the flock, Hyejeong, notices their husband wondering around with some new wife candidate for their polygamous Mormon cult family. According to my limited understandings on the polygamous Mormon cult, the husband is supposed to get all his hens to sign on when adding a new loving member to their community. Then the wives host an event for the wife candidate known as [Redacted] intimate physical get together. Other wives may join in during the process called “the gardening” which is a group [Redacted]. (apologizes in advance for any Mormon cult readers might be reading. Please, feel free to correct me if I misrepresented your culture in the description above.) [Good God, Lim. What the fuck?]

After a brief moment of frustration, they decide to deal with their aggression the way they know how. They pull out their baton they use for their Japanese branch voodoo ritual as a sacred utensil. (This spiritual belief is practiced widely in Japan, Japanese have adopted witchcraft and voodooism then culturalized to cater their own beliefs. In Japan, dressing up underaged girls in candy colored anime costume and handing them a plastic baton gives them supernatural abilities to generate LED light and create glitters out of thin air.)

An example of Japanese branch of Voodooism. The yellow doll on right is another accessory to the witchcraft, a Japanese Voodoo doll.

One of Core Value of the Japanese Voodooism is being demonstrated here. Glitter and LED lights, transforming while exposing their sheer body. [Are you sure drugs are illegal in Korea?]

Then in bits by bits, they show their choreography mostly focused on making suggestive hand gestures and infatuating hip wielding dance to deliver another Mormon cult message “the importance of expanding the flock by fathering the wives and childbearing hips.”

Suggestive hand gesture: holding two fingers and making their hands meet in the middle, repeatedly. In. and. Out In. And. Out. So on and so on.

The scene speaks for itself.

Then they go on to talk about their unresolved anger and how they plan to resolve their grunts [Grudges?] they have with their husband.

“I won’t let you get away with it, wait for me boy,

I’ll make you feel me again,

How should I scold you all night long.”

[Nice.]

If girls lining up and waving to make it look like a person has a multiple set of arms isn’t about religious ritual, what could it be? Notice the yet another subtle gesture about core value this MV is preaching, “fertilizing.” the backup dancer in the front is placing her hand on her groin to point her feminine wing. [Feminine wing???]

What I consider to be the highlight of the video: Chanmi’s impeccable pelvis thrust. It’s hypnotizing…

Placing their hands to point the entrance to the Narnia and rubbing it up and down. This could not be less subtle.

Emitting LED lights with their baton/ladytoy twofer. Classic Japanese voodooism reference.

After the tedious BDSM scene and some more hip wielding, the video ends with them dancing in rejoice [I don’t know how to fix this, but you know what he means.]

This video is experimental artwork carefully designed to serve its purpose – to broaden their fan base for its main group, AOA by putting members in pedo attracting costumes to cater certain demographics of ajussi fans and 12 yr old barbie doll collecting pre-teens, but also to generate positive reviews from critics and rebrand AOA as more than just pretty girl group. The story behind the video on quick observation, only seems like it’s talking about innocent BDSM play and girls obsessing about the same guy, which is the K pop music video 101.

But the real message is cleverly in places for those with cultural voyeurism to notice. It’s a brilliant marketing strategy as Korean public is generally against mainstream media contents delivering messages other than sex disguised as aegyo. Glad to see finally some management agencies are catching on the importance of speaking against stigma towards Mormon cult community and encouraging younger demographics of South Korea to breed and bear fruits as decreasing of the population is becoming more problematic.

Final notes

[KCMF] can we have an overall score/reaction for the song and MV please oppa~~?

[Lim] Sure

[Lim] I’m glad they went with different producers for suren having the “eh yeaaah bravesound” < idk what do they call this but it’d rack my heart if this perfect masterpiece was butchered by another eh yeah bravesound

[Lim] 10/10 for Chanmi’s pelvis wielding skill

[KCMF] Lyrics, MV quality?

[Lim] MV is amazing, like it’s vibrant color [What?] and different theme than what AOA usually puts out and definitely appreciates they deducated the sub group to the more less known members of the group

Lim’s view

Song – Fucking 10 out of motherfucking 10.

Lyrics – scold me all night long 10

MV Sexiness/Cuteness – 8.5. I was going to give 10 but deducted 1.5 for MV’s possible harmful effect on young girls. Chanmi’s hip thrusting could influence younger demographics negatively, not everyone can move their pelvis like her. Might discourage girls to be less confident about their pelvic felxiblity.

MV Kpop Weirdness – Holy mother this should be up there with Catallena on terms of weirdness, 10.

Overall rating: 9.5

I agree with Lim, except on sexiness and weirdness, which get an 8 and a 7 from me, respectively. However, Lim is Asian, so if I disagree with him, I’m racist.

Therefore, final score is 9.5! Well done AOA Cream!

As always thanks from me, and thanks from Lim
