On and On, hyde, Voodoo Doll, for a normal person these are just random words –things even, but for a fangirl specifically a ‘Starlight’ these are songs of special character. VIXX is a group known for their unique concepts; curious? Check those songs listed. The group just made a comeback this 14th with the release of their music video for their newest song: Error. The video, just like any VIXX music video was weird but had a slight touch of romance in its own way. From the first second until the last, the video was –let’s say cool with a few lapses and weird moments here and there.
Error had VIXX as cyborgs, not dolls nor vampires but cyborgs. What you might be thinking of –if you haven’t seen the video, is a bunch of metals walking here and there but no, VIXX on the first seconds was seen at their ‘cyborg form’ that is their facial features with some weirdly metals formed as their body. I might have survived seeing their gory Voodoo Doll and hyde videos but this surely gave me a shock and made my face, for the first time while viewing a video of them, morph into a look of similar of distress; dumbfounded I was, to say the least. The others looked terrifying but the girl, who was also a cyborg, looked cute. Way to give some favoritism, editor-nim!
Wait, was that N being the tallest cyborg? He must have harassed the editor to make him appear the tallest –cyborgs don’t wear insoles, do they?
VIXX’s comeback will have you looking forward on, not just the music video or the song but with the following points: concept, music video, the song, their dance’s intro position, their whole routine and their outro position. The dance, was not fully seen in the video as we were only given snippets of it because the video focused on the story to deliver more of the song’s meaning. Nonetheless, the dance still caught my attention –as expected of a VIXX’s routine, the dance was powerful and tiring, in an audience’s perspective I might even end up panting while watching them dance. The first position was really an attention-catcher; it was cramped, yes but beautifully cramped, was it? Leo was found squished in the middle of the group, but he was not bus-like squished more like arranged-squished, with-a-story squished and then the song started with, of course, his dramatic voice. The outro wasn’t to be thrown away and skipped as it had its own story too, they performed somewhat like a detaching or turning off of being a cyborg –at least it was what I think it was, thanks to the editing!
The story amidst the creepy ‘cyborg-ness’ of the group was expectedly a love story. Though the video started off by showing the other members, sadly they weren’t really part of the story, they were just some extras to show. The story revolves with Hongbin –yes, that cute guy with the abs’s name is Hongbin, and a lady-love. It was a love line between cyborgs, (and I didn’t even know he was a cyborg! He looked normal, except with his big doe eyes and dimples but he looked nothing like a cyborg; note, reference to the other members) I believe it started with him building his own, illegal cyborg, they fell in love, the cyborg surprisingly got sick? Virus I presume, of course it won’t be because of pneumonia; and died then he started rebuilding and implanted their memories back and when she returned back, all of a sudden some men barged in and tested if she was legally made which scared them both and resulted to them destroying themselves together. Confusing, I know.
And they left the other members there ‘naked’ with only their heads properly made
After the release, the group topped the music charts with their album. I expect triple crowns with this song. Not just music bank, mcountdown, inkigayo trophies but also music awards by the end of the year. This group’s not yet given the attention they deserve, I believe. They’re still on that on-off popularity level, I hope that this song will reach its peak.
