THIS IS IN NO WAY ME TRYING TO POIST IDOLS AS PEOPLE THAT ARE ACTIVISTS OR PUTTING WORDS IN THEIR MOUTHS, but artist create art that is meant to be dissected.
Recently I’ve been seeing clips of Seventeen performing their song SOS in America during their tour and I’ve also watched videos where people that attended talked about it being a very intense and empowering moment especially with the current political climate.
Some of the lyrics: “Day to day to day, it’s like we’re an infinite roulette Spin it, spin it, spin it, now, who’s the next target?”
“Everyday we’re fightin’ A silent war we never wanted Come on right now, people keep on dyin’ When the world is killing you, yeah”
Again I’m not saying that they are making a direct statement, but you can’t deny the lyrics like these, especially speak to a time of pointing out blatant things that are wrong with the world.
Would you all agree? I was just wondering if there are any other K-pop songs that talk about just the world climate or just have a hint of activism. And if you have any, would like to share the meeting behind those lyrics or what you think it’s trying to convey.
