Super quick post about GDragon's new video "That XX" which is a great song although not as great as "One of A Kind"
The first time I heard this song, I thought it was boring but I listened to it a little bit more and I really like it. Love the beautiful melodies in the song, and love that GD (pictured above) was soft, sensual and also showed off his wonderful vocal ability.
GD who played 2 characters in this video (a good and bad guy) was really believable in both roles. It's funny because the bad guy G-D reminds me of how G-D's screen personality is: trendy and loud. While the good guy G-D is more subtle and plays it safe with his fashion choices.
This video already has almost 2 million views in a little over 24 hours which isn't surprising (it's GD!). The video was okay to me and it featured Jennie Kim, member of the new YG girl group debuting soon. She's 16 years old and GD is 24, so I think it's kinda odd that she was chosen as the female lead. Why not other older members of the group instead of a 16 year old? Nothing obscene was done in the video although it's called "That XX" and has an a 15+ rating.
This leads me to my next point: the annoying beeps through out the video. According to comments on the video, all G-Dragon said which was bleeped out is "bastard" which is considered a huge insult in Korea. I get that, but those beeps are really annoying!! The first time I listened to the video, I winced!
Anyways, check out GD's video:
Also, for those of you who don't understand what he's saying, here's an English translation of the song:
