17 Carat Recap: Week of March 21-27

3/27/2021

0 Comments

 
Recommendation of the Week: SEVENTEEN’s new medley of their hit songs!

This Week on 17 Carat K-Pop

The “BTStudy Guide” series of episodes continues! I compare and contrast the characters, symbols, and messages in Black Swan with those in the BTS Music Video Universe. I also draw parallels to material in The Red Shoes and Swan Lake to highlight a throughline in BTS’s sources of inspiration.

On this week’s other new episode, I recap the Big Hit Entertainment rebrand press conference, share my favorite lyrics from RM’s debut mixtape (in honor of its six-year anniversary), and cover the latest news about many K-Pop stars!
