GIRLS' GENERATION -- RUN DEVIL RUN

A turning point for SNSD.

I love the MV; they all sound so good and the styling is faboo.

For all those protesting "But Ke$ha..." yes, her song was Kpopped and the world is a better place for it!

Every Sunday I look back at the preceding week in kpop and pick out a music video or performance that I have particularly liked. This week I have chosen Red Velvet – Run Devil Run --Arranged by Simon Petrén.

I found it difficult to decide this week, as I enjoyed the BB Girls comeback and the GFriend Season of Memories concert.

Ultimately this RV performance won out, for three reasons. In the first place, the SNSD MV has a special place in my affections, as it helped me through a period of poor health, so I was naturally attracted to this reworking of the song. Secondly, the distinctly adult sound of this arrangement appealed to me. Finally, all three (what happened to Yeri and Wendy?) impressed me visually, with Joy in particular looking absolutely gorgeous.

If I weren’t so tired I’d elaborate on that last point by writing more about why the visual and performance aspects of kpop matter, but those thoughts will have to wait for another time.
