am i the only one who's not a fan of lumpens mv directing?

  • it's getting boring now seriously. I wish hybe would stop their connections with them tbh but i think it's impossible for now. ;( the reason why hybe's mv views are so low because of how boring and unrepeatable and cheap their mvs are.


    SM, JYP and YG's mvs >>>>>>>>

    Approved the thread.
  • the reason why hybe mvs(minus bts) don't have high views is because they don't use ads like other companies.

  • I don't watch other hybe groups but bts mvs by lumpens actually made bts artists with the best mvs in kpop.

  • You're definitely not the one, I've seen a lot of people who said they feel like this.


    I think lumpens' strong point is their use of colors and ability to convey melancholic/bittersweet vibes, but their directing has gotten messier and messier over the years. And some of the songs they get these days are just not that suited for their style.

  • that's what ive been saying but company shooters always come to their defense

    they had their peak with spring day/blood sweet and tears mvs but now they're outdated and running out of fresh ideas. now every new mv is a remake of their previous ones, don't ask me why enhypen's new mv reminds me of not today lol. their use of cg/greenscreen is really amateur and looks cheap af. they also often use some old ugly orange/yellow filters that make the mvs look old-fashioned and low-quality. let's not even talk about the cut scenes in almost every mv that break the flow and reduce the playability of the mv.

    hybe need to hire new art and mv directors if they want to improve their mvs' quality.

    this is why i'm over the moon that j-hope has started using a different director for More. you can see the improvement in the quality and imagery right away. it looks way more professional. i'm praying to god bts kiss lumpens goodbye and never look back. Before you bring up Daechwita, that was mostly Suga's ideas and he brought some guys that did historical kdrama to help as well. I believe he could do even better with a better director.

  • I'm not either. The best HYBE MVs this year were Jhope's More and LSFM's Fearless, and both MVs weren't directed by HYBE

  • He has definitely lost his touch since 2021. His mvs for BTS so far have been uninspiring and boring as hell


    He needs to go back to his black-swan- daechwitta era

  • He stopped being creative long ago.

  • I remember when everyone on the old forum was a vocal coach, I guess we have film directors now as well. lmaoo kpop fans.
