Well just putting this out here.... I'm addicted to K-Pop. Well that sounds fine doesn't it? Except I'm Chinese -_-. Well. If you see the dead state of the C-Pop industry, you'll see why I converted. To anyone who has ever watched a KMV, we'll see a few different types of them, with consistent characteristics to any of them.
The Dancing MV:
The following characteristics are applicable:
- focuses on dancing (duhhh)
- For guys, either fob casual clothing or Suits and ties. Girls, skimpy is a must. Must keep audience glued to screen
-Has a potential to invoke an entire country to dance in Unison with you... including the military...
The Drama MV:
The following characteristics are applicable:
-One or more people must die, preferably the hero, normally in the act of saving the girl from a kidnapper/murderer.
-Hero must have fob hair. Must constantly be wearing fashionable clothing, even as an assassin.
-Heroine must be cute, vulnerable. abductable.
-Must be confusing unless you watch it more than once.
The Band MV
-Either the singer, or the entire group must be present, and the entire MV is just watching them play
-Either sings like the world's about to end, or like he's lost his mind
- Must have a VERY interesting outfit, or otherwise draw attention away from the fact you're watching a person sing for the next 4 minutes with no definite purpose.E.g. backdrops etc.
Most MVs these days are based off these templates, but some are a mix of 2, while the longer ones effectively mix all three of them. Case in point: SS501 Solo collection: btw... there are THREE parts. Yes, 3 parts.
