Music Video of the Day #2 out of 365: Girls’ Generation- Oh! and Run Devil Run (Dir. Cheo Soo-hyun, 2010) youtu.be/rcaCrUMzUHY More Info On This Project- alyssasmusicvideoproject.weebly/ (I’d like to dedicate this video to my trophy wife Christopher Collins. Literally the only person in the world willing to discuss cultural dominance representations in kpop music videos for literally hours on end and posted music videos for me while I was in the woods with children. Purely the outfits, hair and makeup of this video make this two-song music story incredible, but it you think it’s simply a dancing video, look closer. It’s totally making fun of American culture, but it also is a deeper, complex representation of two cultures (American and Korean) and the fight between them for cultural dominance, which the Americans ultimately win despite their childishness by literally unplugging a computer and denying themselves the technologic advancements in the process. Oh my god, maybe I COULD write essays about music videos after all. Bizarrely, RDR was originally cut by Ke$ha as a bonus track for her Animal album.)
