Article: MTV K Picks K-pop’s Top Ten Craziest Music Videos

Try To Follow Me at #9

K-pop MVs are created to be hip, cool and super relevant. They also have a habit of competing so closely with one another, that they all become one big blur. How many ‘dancing in a box’ music videos are there now, anyway? How many overplayed dramatic storylines? How many feature sexy body waves, charismatic close-ups and aegyo poses? We love them, we really do, but sometimes we’re in the mood for something more.

In our opinion, music videos are at their most entertaining when they are insanity-driven, over-the-top and just plain crazy. Check out the top ten wackiest MVs that K-pop has to offer right now. Watch and be amazed. This is K-pop like you’ve never seen it before. Well… maybe a few of these since good stuff tends to go viral.

10. PREPIX ft. BEENZINO, ESNA and BEASTS’s JUNHYUNG – “WHAT I SEE”
9. 2NE1 – “TRY TO FOLLOW ME”
8. GIRL’S DAY – “TWINKLE TWINKLE”
7. PSY – “RIGHT NOW”
6. NORAZO – “SALES KING”
5. EPIK HIGH – “WANNABE”
4. EPIK HIGH – “TROT + TECHNOLOGY”
3. ULALA SESSION – “BEAUTIFUL NIGHT”
2. AZIATIX + IDIOTAPE + JAURIM – “#PEEPSHOW”
1. PSY – “GANGNAM STYLE”

– About the K-Pop Giveaway 

Korean popular music, or K-Pop, has become a vibrant cultural phenomenon in recent years and a new symbol of Korea for millions of fans worldwide. To celebrate these talented Korean artists, the Korean Cultural Center Washington DC is thrilled to host a new K-Pop Giveaway each month of 2012. Each time will feature a different K-Pop artist or group, and 10 or more winners will receive a special prize based from the featured artist, such as CD albums, photo books, clothing, or other exclusive accessories.

– About PSY and 2NE1

Joining the YG family in 2010, singer-songwriter PSY is a consummate showman, who has become best known for his exciting and theatrical stage performances. Since his debut, he has done more than 20 concerts, entertaining audiences with his witty and energetic music, dance, and choreography. He is also nominated to sing an official cheering song for the London Olympic in 2012, “KOREA”.

2NE1 is a popular K-pop girl-group that debuted in 2009 with YG Entertainment. They claim to be different from other girl groups, bursting onto the electronic music scene as soon as they appeared. Their cutting-edge music and unique fashion style led to collaboration with artists such as Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and world-famous designer, Jeremy Scott. As the popularity has increased in the world, 2NE1 is planning to hold “2NE1 New Evolution”, their first world-wide tour, which will start in America from August 2012.

To enter the contest, simply “Like” the Facebook wall of Korean Cultural Center in DC (if not already!) and make a post on our FB wall about the featured artists, PSY and 2NE1. The winners will be chosen through three standards- creativity, effort, and popularity. So, the most innovative, inspiring, or amazing posts will win: show your love by posting a personal story, tribute, original song, photos, video, or anything else you can think of to show your K-Pop pride!
