Please, please, please go back to making these sorts of videos! I appreciate the news show and the live stream, but theory and essay videos are why I subscribed several years ago.

Yes he was a bassist in a metal band Sinawe and he's a true metal guy at heart

@@DKDKTV That's the one. I first heard of Seo Taiji when I was a kid with the track Nan Arayo on the 3 Ninjas movie. And seeing that Metal being injected throughout his music, Nan Arayo, Class Room Idea, Orange his Nu-Metal phase. His impact and formula can be heard in alot of Kpop today. Musical genius I have much respect for. Music is powerful my dudez!! Anyway, thanks for this video and all the work you guys do. Much love & respect from New Zealand!! 🤘🏻🐯👌

As much as I tried I did not found Korean metal to listen to, except some of seo taiji's songs, it's a bit frustrating. If someone has a lead for me I would be grateful !

@@zosha. A friend of mine showed me a Korean metal song a few weeks ago, but I don't remember the name. I'll come back in a bit to tell you once I find it again!

@@DKDKTV The qality is a lil old skool but Seo Taiji riffing it up and YG dancing and rapping away too!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fZl5dt2CyJm9oIk.html

Thank you for appreciating the video :) we put a lot of hard work into it

Mine too, these kind of videos made me become a fan of dkdktv! Keep it up guys!

Yes! I particularly enjoyed the explain Kpop songs videos, I miss them. I learnt so much, especially about Korean folklore and idioms. DKDKTV’s explain video of Pentagon’s Naughty Boy was exceptional. You can tell Danny and David put a huge amount of work into their videos.

@june I need to check that one! For me, it was the explanation of BTS Idol that brought me into this channel. It was mind-blowing.

@av SCompact Not defending the use of black face, but the 90's were such a different time where people didn't always understand where the line was between honoring someone and offending them. My guess (because we may never know the real reason) is that they thought it was something of an homage to the hip hop artists that they were emulating. You also have to realize that this was in South Korea where there are NOT a lot of people of color (probably less so back then) so they likely would have had no clue what would be considered offensive to that community. They may have even been trying to accustom their country to seeing darker skinned artists. And back then, it would have probably been pretty much impossible for them to collaborate with actual black artists. But even in America, there were still a lot of white people who did not yet understand that black face in all situations was offensive to the black community. Witness comedians/talk show hosts having black face sketches coming back to haunt them decades later. We've grown since then. I don't think Seo Taiji used black face past the Seo Taiji and Boys era. And I don't think they did it to be offensive. Had they known it was, I'm sure they wouldn't have done it. But I don't think it would be fair to negate what they did for South Korean music based on the poor choice they made in their youth in a time where it didn't even necessarily seem like a poor choice. We learn, we grow, we make better choices. But I agree....a lot of cringey things occurred back then that we didn't always realize were cringey at the time. Knight Rider exists.... that's all the proof you need that the 90's produced a lot of cringe-factor. I'm just glad to see that so many things that seemed "normal" back then seem cringey now. It gives me faith that maybe things really can change given enough time. We just need to keep being the change.

I second this!

I was also expecting "Classroom idea" to be the revolutionary song, didn't know about "Regret of the times"! But imagine releasing the song with only the instrumental and without vocals as a protest against censorship. Savage move, for real 😆

For everyone who doesn't know yet, these are two more interesting videos from DKDKTV about (or including) Seo Taiji that are worth watching: "The most influential KPOP artist in history" and "Kpop history in 20 minutes, from Seo Taiji to BTS".

*kudos.

@@aditibharadwaj6116 Thank you, it autocorrected 😉😅😂

you have great taste :)

That entire concert is a gem

@@DKDKTV please block the above comment.

@@OblivionZXZ you can report it too. I just did. The 3 dots upper right gives a report option.

@@yolandavirginiamendozacal977 👍

Yes its the decision of the broadcssting system rather than by the government. Before, a song could be literally not released just because the government were uncomfortable about its content and never released to the public. Sometimes it was banned after it was released because they thought it brought depression or anti government spirit or even for reasons that "they sound too much like a japanese song(this was a problem for early south korea cause they were trying to encourage patriotic emotions while distancing itself from its colonial past)". Also to ensure that the artist has at least one song that fits the tastes of the higher up, there used to be a seperate track that needed to be in the album called geonjeongayo(건전가요) which was basically south korean propaganda songs that artist need to sing.

Bro kpop and america pop is not similar so don't compare 😅
