OK Go do it again with another mesmerising video - this time using optical illusions





 
 Alternative rock band OK GO released their new track, titled 'The Writing's on the Wall'. The most outstanding feature is their music video which is full of optical illusion. Optical illusions spreading out in warehouse make you dazzle. 

 The music video of OK GO makes me think about creativity. By using factors such as treadmill or optical illusion that are irrelevant to the music, thy made a fresh and interesting effect. So I was surprised with these creative ideas through the whole music video. They seems to develop new fields on the boundary between artists and musicians. Like them, I also want to create interesting concepts in my architectural design in harmony with other fields.

Psy leads Snoop Dogg on Korean-style drinking binge



 PSY's 'Hangover' music video that featured by Snoop Dogg has been getting a lot of attention. The background of video is Incheon and it was filmed intensively for about 18 hours. The video deal with the traditional drinking culture of Korea. PSY and Snoop Dogg, a perfect combination, describe the hardcore drinking humorously by showing endless bomb shots and haning out at a jjimjilbang.

 I'm really interested in the theme of 'Hangover' and the way of describing it. Since most Korean songs deal with the 'love', they have formulaic styles of video and lyrics. However, 'Hangover' is differentiated from other songs. It is about drinking culture of Korea so that I can easily sympathize with the lyrics. What's more, PSY's unique and funny style makes me excited.

GOD Is Back with Its Pre-released Track “Sky Blue Promise”




 GOD, first-generation idol group in Korea, decided to reunite the group. They released the new track called "Sky Blue Promise" on 3 June and it swept the music charts. Lyric is a spin-off of the 'One Candle', one of the GOD's most famous songs. It deals with God's gratitude for their fans who supported and waited for them. Many fans and Korean singers welcomed the GOD with open arms.

 When I was teenager, God was really famous group. I used to listen their songs. So far, many people still enjoy singing their hit songs. Sometimes, I miss olden music because recent pop songs focus more on the visual style and performance than lyrics itself. Therefore, reconciliation of GOD can causes substantial changes in Korean music trend.
