January 2024 MVs
NMIXX
This was my favourite album of the month, this feels like they have really hit their stride and it was so good to see their run of music show wins.
Run for Roses
Dash
IU - Love Wins All
My pick for MV of the month - a dystopic science fiction romance, gorgeous and tragic, an entire short film in just a few minutes. Co-starring Taehyung from BTS.
CIX - Lovers or Enemies
Not quite what I expected from the teasers but androids programmed to love you is THE idol metaphor and they are so handsome. Both songs on this single are great, they are such a no skips group for me.
B1A4 - Rewind
An unexpectedly quirky and witty MV! Good to see these guys again.
SF9 - Bibora
Not exactly sure what is going on but they all look very handsome.
Limelight (Miu) - Twenty Twenty
I also enjoyed their title Ta-Da! but Twenty Twenty by Miu was the stand out. I don't really understand and am wary of this group's "infinite members" concept but I've enjoyed ALL their releases so far.
Ryu Sujeong - Fallen Angel
This whole mini, a collab with XYLO, is pretty interesting. This MV is quite gay in a way that Ninamonday described as having the energy of "toxic 90s girl-on-girl queerbaiting" (positive). I liked it! She has had such an interesting post-Lovelyz career, and Grabby Girl and Love or Hate ended up being sleeper faves for me in 2023.
Choi Yena - Good Morning
Delightful, playful, many movie genres referenced.
Seola - Without U
Double Seola? Riches beyond measure!!
Vanner - Jackpot
Really fun crime-themed MV. Suitcases of CASH! And DANCING!
Seori - Broken
She's gorgeous, the song is lovely.
DXMON
There were many notable debuts this month but this is a smaller one which I found interesting.
Burn Up
Spark
And two of my favourite groups had subunit MVs:
The Boyz
Honey - sexy and sweet
Rat in the Trap - noir vibes!
Ateez - Youth
They are running away from their gangster pasts! And they are in love!
