K-pop Thread: aespa's Giselle livestreams execution of Charli XCX's career
This is just aespa's girls choreo all over again. Without the camera movements, it looks goofy as hell. Not even lisa could've saved this on stage...

The way her face cycles between looking completely starved and perfectly healthy every other week, just like the phases of the moon. Name an idol more dedicated to their concept!

The way their last two eras peaked creatively with the trailers... At this point I'd rather they do without the trailers and focus on putting out a single good MV. Like what's the point of constantly teasing amazing ideas and concepts that have no real follow-through in the final product?

Lemonade is serviceable, but neither the song nor the MV is hitting like they're supposed to. There was a clear attempt at doing "whiplash, but more". But this maximalist recreation of whiplash conceptually doesn't make sense, because the whole point of whiplash was its minimalism in both sound+aesthetic. Most of lemonade has that bassy synth running throughout much of the song which Is nowhere near as catchy as it needs to be (i.e. like whiplash) Is exhausting to listen to, especially by the end Traps the song in this dark region sonically (ironic given how lemonade is generally perceived to be bright) And the weakness of that synth is compounded because the climax (both song+mv) just falls flat. There needed to be a bigger switch-up in production after the bridge and/or winter+ningning should've been screeching one key higher. The mv also suffered because it lacked a cohesive creative through line. It cycles through a whole bunch of completely different aesthetics that distract from one another Half the time they're cosplaying other (SM) groups' concepts, which don't even fit the song's vibe that well There's a lot of color in their wardrobe and set design (as there should be!), but for whatever reason the editor decided the mv had to be as washed out as possible All the individual cuts are cool, but it's not immediately clear how they are connected (if at all) There's already so much going on throughout the whole thing, and when they cut to the visually empty whiplash section after the bridge, it just sucked out all the energy from the climax, when energy was very desperately needed By the end of the video my brain felt so numb, all I walked away with was a vague impression that a lot of k-unt was being served. It's like the kpop version of a transformers movie. It's just so ironic whiplash managed to do so much with so little, whereas lemonade is so overstuffed that it buckles under its own weight. Unfortunately, on a conceptual level, this might have to be their weakest TT for me.

I think it genuinely needs to be studied how 30% of giselle's jaw disappears whenever she puts on some makeup
