Complicated Korean Video Friday resumes today with Ga-In's "Irreversible."

I find the video profound, though the message - what the man's trying to convey to Ga-In - would be a platitude if reduced to a sentence or a maxim. In fact, the guy in the video tried to tell her, but she didn't take in the lesson 'til she'd lived through the consequences ( Read more... )

Chatty lyricist Kim Eana, in a blog post about IU's "You & I", dropped this nugget: "(Ah, certainly in the case of Ga In's "Irreversible", as an exception, the content of the MV = the content of the lyrics. From the start, it was planned to be that way~)"

Hwang Sooah is the director of Irreversible and she's done most of Nega Network's videos, and Kim Eana seems to write songs for most of them (and both work with IU all the time, by some connection), so I guess they concoct these stories together.

I guess that means we should be checking the theories against the lyrics, but the lyrics aren't very specific so how they were so intrinsically linked to the story presented in the video... only the women behind it know.
