[ASKKPOP] [MV Review] Rhythm Power - Game of Thrones
Rhythm Poweruploadedthe music video to 'Game of Thrones'on Wednesday the 22ndthroughAmoeba Culture's YouTube page. The song is a single from the trio'snewest album entitled 'Walmido's Dogs' which came out the 23rd. The albumis an EP containing a total of ten tracks.
Now that the logistics areout of the way, let's discuss the music video. The videography was reminiscent of somethingyou would see in a movie from the 90s. It wasn't too impressive but I diggedthe old-school vibe. Though there were no synchronized dance moves, an intricateplot, or even a fancy-looking set, the entire music video was highly amusing towatch. It's not the kind of amusing where I was derisively jeering at therappers of Rhythm Power because I believe they are talentless twits. I wasgenuinely entertained by their antics much like how a friend would enjoy therandom horseplay of peers. But I somehow get the feeling Rhythm Power'sshenanigans 'round town weren't random at all.
They knew exactly whatthey were doing, from the part where all three of them ride around on kid-sizedscooters in snow-white jumpsuits, to when Haeng Joo attempts a karate kick at abarrel of fire and even when Jigooin gyrates his pelvis on the fences of apagoda (on second thought, the pelvis gyrating was probably improvised). I havealways thoroughly appreciated Rhythm Power's humorous approach in directingtheir videos and this time was no exception. They don't take themselves seriouslywhich is a refreshing attitude amongst a pool of groups who at times, try alittle too hard to come off a certain way.
Besides scenes of thegroup wreaking havoc in the town of Walmido, there are also snippets of themplaying drinking games with several young women at karaoke. These scenes are actuallyrelevant to the lyrics which allude to the three of them being the 'kings'. Thatis, they each become 'kings' in the game who acquires the ability to controlthe other players at his whim. The game can get quite dirty and I think the membersof Rhythm Power tried to dothingstothese girls or have them dothingsforthem using the game as an excuse. At the end of the video we see one girlangrily walking out with the other girls following suit. The three members are then leftlooking nonplussed as to what they could possibly have done wrong to agitatethe women.
All in all, 'Game ofThrones' is a music video that is sure to bring a grin to your face. Give them somelove by checking this video out and also their previous works.
