Music Video
Song : Let's play in the Han river (Latest song)
Music Video
The music video show us a performance by them near the Han river. 
It is very upbeat and fun.
They were able to get closer to their fans.

They showed us that the Han river can be a place where

we can relax during the summer.
I like how they show us the light sticks the audience were using
and the audience seem to be enjoying the performances.

Music Video
The  Music video was very enjoyable because it showcase their personality. 
It was fun and people will dance while listening and watching the video.
It was very creative.  

I especially like it that everything is going backwards. I can't help 

but smile throughout the video because it was so funny.
I'm glad they showed their comical side.

Reasons why I think they are unique:

1. Unusual band name, contrary to their music
2.They do not have a guitarist which is rare for a band.
3.They have a fun and likeable image.
4. Youths can relate to their songs
5.They compose and produce their own music.
