I'm sure the fact that I recently wrote an extensive paper on the origin of Korean girl-pop-groups is only one factor in my giddy appreciation of this over-the-top and almost enlightenment-inducing music video from the Wonder Girls of Korea. I actually watched the default/English version first, and I kept thinking to myself, "When are they going to sing in Korean?!" or as Kate would say, "ahhhhhhhhhhh!" I almost didn't want to post because the singing was just so terrible! But, the telling nature of English as a pop default certainly brings out a side of the weird anthropologist in me. Luckily, I found this Korean language version that ultimately proves that world music makes everything better.....Right?
