Coping

//2:48 AM.

I wonder what it’s like to be at the top of the food chain. Life must be much more easier, not handling the amount of stress; the one I’ve been trying to bear until now. I do feel them. I just don’t show them. The thing is, when I told my friends that I’ve been feeling stressful studying in Sanur, they looked genuinely surprised. And when I asked why, they said: “Because you don’t look stressed to me. You smile and joke around all the time!"

Well, true.

And you might ask, how do I cope with the amount of stress that lingers? Well, the answer is dancing, music, and some other melancholic stuff. And some drops of violence as well. Haha. I like seeing what people used to do in the past to punish those who had broke the law. 

Oops, I got distracted. Shall us go back to the main topic? We shall.

The thing is, I’m quite fond of K-Music. K-pop is the acronym for Korean Music. Basically it’s music created in South Korea. I like them because of the catchy music and the fancy dancing they have. The choreographies are eye endearing. The music videos are interesting, too. Well, some of them. You see, this industry of theirs usually have this thing called “concept” that they’re going to pull off every comeback (comeback is their term for releasing new music). Some of the groups may use storylines in their videos to tell the viewers their ‘concept’, while the others use their choreographies instead.

The links below are examples of music videos with a story inside it:

Nell 5th Album_그리고 남겨진 것들_The Day Before
Akdong Musician(AKMU) - 얼음들(MELTED) M/V
THE ARK(디아크) _ The Light(빛)

I won’t tell you what the videos are about, because I don’t like spoiling. But my personal favorite is the first.

The next video I’m going to give you is an example of a music video without a story, which will explain the concept by their choreography.

SUPER JUNIOR 슈퍼주니어 _SPY_MUSIC VIDEO

The choreography in the video above tells us about how the members of the group are spies and how they’re chasing and ‘catching’ the woman they love.

And that is all. By the way, I decorated my wall!

And yes, that is Van Gogh's Starry Night. My uncle painted it for me.

Soon, my wall will be full of memories I've made with my friends and family! Can't wait to fill the spaces.

P. S: It rained yesterday! You can't believe how much I squealed that night. I contemplated with myself about lots of things. I was quite delightful yesterday. I had coffee, too! Well, it’s been a while since it rained.
