Article: 'Sexy battle' Girl groups open up on the controversy surrounding sexy concepts
Source: Newsen via Nate
Girl's Day: "There is a move where we caress our legs with a feather. Honestly, we like being told we're sexy. We (put in moves like this) to look sexy." Girl's Day CEO: "We've been thinking of a concept like this since a year ago. Since it can't be just sexy, it was difficult to draw a suitable line with their choreography and outfits."
Rainbow rep: "The concept is voyeurism. A bit fantasy-like, it leaves sexy thoughts to the imagination, which is why we went with a polaroid type film set. Our plan was to make imaginations possible instead of showing skin outright."
Dal Shabet: "Our sexiness is a mature but charismatic sexy. Our outfits don't have skin exposure so we had to emphasize our sexiness in our choreography."
Girl's Day's Minah: "Regarding sexually suggestive controversies, we're trying to express art so we don't want people to view it in that way."
Dal Shabet's Ahyoung: "I can understand why people would think that. We trust that they'll love us if we show an amazing image without embarrassment."
1. [+628, -21] No matter how much they strip, groups who aren't meant to be popular will never reach it. A Pink got popular without skin exposure and while Girl's Day benefitted of of it, it clearly isn't working for Dal Shabet no matter how many dresses they flip up so they should stop trying to milk it and look for something else.
2. [+484, -12] I don't know... They can call it art but when I watch them with my young niece/nephews and they have to see that, I'm worried about what they're thinking ㅜ-
3. [+338, -24] Dal Shabet is really.. ugly
4. [+22, -3] Can I laugh at them calling it art? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
5. [+21, -1] If they're calling that art, then men who run around flashing people are doing performance art.
6. [+18, -1] Just say it's for the money.
7. [+15, -0] There are several problems with these sexy concepts... One is that it's so awkward and that girl groups switch between concepts too much. Past girl groups had their own characteristic like Baby Vox with sexy, SES with innocence... Girl groups these days do this, do that, so it just seems like they're trying to sell themselves to everything and hoping something catches. It's hard to take cute kids and force them into sexy concepts, obviously it will end up looking awkward... and since sexy concepts focus only on showing skin, it causes controversy.
