Hello and welcome to this weeks Modern Seoul KPOP Song of the Week, our second for November 2015. Although there were a number of very interesting new releases this week, we’ve chosen the new release from girl group by Brown Eyed Girls. The song is titled “Brave New World” (신세계) and it was released this Wednesday November 4th. Since then the video has been viewed around 780,000 times on the 1theK YouTube Channel. Here are our reasons for choosing “Brave New World” for our KPOP song of the week:
- Firstly the song has a dance style almost 70’s. The vocals are strong and blend together nicely.
- Secondly the video contains a strange sci-fi style story which is interesting to watch but is hard to understand.
- Finally Brown Eyed Girls have been around for almost 10 years now and have a large and loyal fan base.
- On the negative side; it’s a little safe and doesn’t push the limits of the group potential.
