I mean, this scares the living shit out of me. In a Windowlicker video kinda way among other ways.

Makes you wonder what else east Asia is grappling with.

Someone, anyone, what is the video like? .... should it be braved?
I just went back up to look at the photo and I'm scared.

As for the blackface, well, it seems from the video that its use is not malicious or even hinting at making jokes at the expense of black people. Still though, goddamn, if money is going to be invested in a pop group, maybe one should do a little research slightly outside the box to see if the costumes are going to horrify the targets of admiration and tribute.. just maybe?
So, yeah, if you were hoping the video would be like a Vice Magazine production, you'll be relieved and/or disappointed.
And now to pull a Dave Q...
How do we know a good chunk of Western pop/musical acts aren't horribly offending non-Western people? What about all the cliches of token kabuki on all those 80s new wave album cover designs? What about the Sun City Girls embrace of eastern Asia (which may be a bad example, as they sometimes appear to want to offend everybody)?

Marketing Director Rob Seo even offered an apology, "To the 1 percent of people who were offended by this, we're really sorry.
1 %?

There's the CD Artwork. Larger versions available if you can read Korean, otherwise the sm(all) version will be enough to show off their versatility. Is this the En Vogue look? http://noneinc.com/Archive/BubbleSisters/CDArt/BS-14-bk09sm.jpg

Nitsuh is OTM. Blackface is a common shtick/gag performed by certain popular Japanese artists.
