The beautiful ladies of SECRET have finally returned with “POISON“!
SECRET stirred up great interest with their new classy yet sexy transformation revealed starting last week, and now the wait is over. Although the title may be “POISON” it’s anything but toxic as the music video leaves you longing for more.
Check out the MV review below~!
That was painful, I'm never doing this again.
Like our erstwhile colleagues at Allkpop have said, Secret's latest title track is Poison. The MV is a combination of storyline and dance in box with close-ups. Wow, that was boring as shit to read/write.
The basic plot of Poison is set in the Roaring Twenties, if the Roaring Twenties happened in Korea. The MV opens with Hyosung paying a visit to a private investigator's office. The plot of the Poison MV unfolds as an extended flashback recounted by her to the investigator. Right from the get-go, she sets up her (and by proxy the rest of SECRET) image as the quintessential femme fatale.
The ladies of SECRET run what appears to be either a speakeasy or a brothel, who knows. At any rate, we quickly learn through by no means disguised looks that the girls of SECRET are up to no good.
Here's where shit gets messy. While waiting for the other members to rendezvous at some secret location, Sunhwa and Zinger are threatened by the random scrub seduced earlier. He's brought a buttbuddy this time, and the two of them have Jieun held captive at gunpoint. The plot summary is getting long (mostly because the plot exposition was pretty boring, so I didn't want to gif it) so here's the climax of the story in gif form:

Long story short, they get the jewels and get away with it. |
SECRET's MV plot is surprisingly decent, although retarded in places. They play very competent femme fatales in the vein of Catwoman and other legendary jewel thieves, but really it has nothing to do with the song. At least nothing to do with the "official interpretation."
Producers Kang Ji Won and Kim Ki Bum revealed previously, “The hip hop genre song which utilizes repeating saxophone segments, describes the feeling of being unable to break away even while knowing that as one falls in love, it only ends up becoming poison to the individual.”Right.
At any rate, we all know you came to SECRET for the faps, not the plot. At worst, you could write the entire thing off as visual porn with plot. Fear not, SECRET definitely delivers in this department. Everyone looks good (except Zinger, but she's passable if you're into bestiality I guess) and the choreography is fapadelic, man.
Sex vixen Sunhwa making her debut. |
Fap dance Hyosung~!! |
Crotch angles are jjangbak. |
The song itself is pretty great though. The sax riffs are jjangbak, and combined with some big band brassy notes, give the whole song an old school RnB swing fusion feel. It's starting to become a trend with SECRET, but the way they manage to put a modern twist on the "retro" isn't that bad at all. The build up to Zinger's raps and her raps themselves still suck though. On that note, Zinger's gotten a few more extra lines than the token rap bits, but that's not a good thing. They're still pretty awkward and her constipated "WHUT" at the end of her main rap made me choke on my water.
Thank tha Lawd for Hyosung though. I do wonder why they give her all the uncomfortable-looking heels all the time, they must be killer on her toes... |
Faptastic MV for a very nice song about Hyosung and her girls.

- HYOSUNG
- lots of Hyosung closeups & solo time

- saxy sax
-:

rapanything Zinger says
I give this song a 3.75 out of 5.
THIS NIGGAzz POISON....POISONNNNN
ReplyDeleteThe formulaic
ReplyDelete2 choruses->soft bridge-> shitty rap
is pushing me farther and farther away from any releases recently.
Plus half of this song's lyrics are shitty english that sounds horrendous.
But I guess their company finally realized that capitalizing on fapping will make them more album sales.
HOLY SHIT! For once I don't have to comment about the problems of a song, since someone already did it for me. THANK YOU, D00D!
DeleteMy biggest gripe is with the pronunciations and the rap, as the the actual chords and keys in the voice directing and composition, were deviating enough, to be interesting.
Am I a bad reviewer for not including more technical song composition stuff?
DeleteDude, Sunhwa was the one that seduced the tattoo dude. Not Ji Eun.
ReplyDeleteI DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING...
DeleteI mean I correctly identified the right one during that gunfight scene!!

ReplyDeleteI liked the song. IMO I thought Zinger was really hot, I really prefer her with brunette hair. I'd take Zinger's wannabe-rap over Hyuna's "Gangnam" thing (? dunno what she was trying to do there)any dat. At least they didn't make her do that cringe-worthy over-the-top cute rap like in "Shy boy" (I hate aegyo raps).
*any day
Deleteyou have confused jieun with sunhwa xD
ReplyDelete"While waiting for the other members to rendezvous at some secret location, Sunhwa and Zinger are threatened by the random scrub seduced earlier. He's brought a buttbuddy this time, and the two of them have Jieun held captive at gunpoint."
Delete^ Wasn't it Jieun and Zinger threatened and Sunhwa held captive?
Nah bro, I got it right the second time. Sunhwa's in the red, Jieun is in the turquoisey blue dress.
DeleteLOL dude you got it mixed up. It's the other way around.
DeleteBlue and help captive: Sunhwa
Red and threatened with Zinger: Jieun

They actually made Zinger useful instead of just throwing a random rap of hers in there like they did with all three of their releases last year. Still, she's useless and Secret would be better as three.
ReplyDeleteI commend this MV for being among the few cohesive ones this year. The camera work was also good when focusing on the members
ReplyDeleteI also am still terribly confused between Jieun and Sunhwa. Thrice watched it and I can't decipher the two. What sorcery is this. Zinger is UNF
oppar y u so srs
Deletelets have sex
right where u are bb
DeleteZinger looks good this comeback cycle though. It's Jieun that they made a fugmonster this time.
ReplyDeletethis song and sistar's alone are the best kpop girl group song of the year so far
ReplyDeletebish we have the same thing in mind
DeleteAnd just when I thought mainstream KPOP was getting crappy. Good timing, Secret.
ReplyDeleteI think Zinger looks decent. They could've emphasize Jieun's beauty a lot more, though.
I'm glad the MGEF are doing their jobs well.
ReplyDeleteGuns, murder and theft are fine, but at least children aren't being corrupted by the sight of bare stomachs.
banned!
ReplyDeleteIt must suck to be the second guy shot dead from a single shot flintlock
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me about all the weird anachronisms in this MV. Then again, it's just KPop.
DeleteOMG NIGGA U SUCK I FUCKED UR MOTHER DIDNT U NOE U CAN QUICK RELOAD BY SWITCHING WEAPONS AHAHAHAHA IM ONLY 12 AND I OWN UR FUCKING ASS
DeleteTAKE ME ON 1V1 ANYTIME BITCH MY GAMERTAG [AKF] xXFaTcHoRoNgXx I KILL U TO DUST
Come at me with that flintlock, I get headshots with riot shields
DeleteHyuna's mom eh? How nasty.
ReplyDeleteWait, so Sunhwa's vagina rub dance allowed even on live perfs but SISTAR's tail dance was banned? LOLWHUT KOREA?
ReplyDeleteGTFO,Zinger is perfection. -.-
ReplyDeleteThis video contains some of the best pussy popping ever recorded. That full leg spread position hurts like hell so kudos to you Sunhwa. She must get lots of practice through her extra-vaginular activities. L you dumped that? Kigga you is soooo gay.
ReplyDeleteVideo definitely needs more of my lovely JiEun. At one point I actually forgot she was in the group.
Secret better brace themselves. The slut-shaming is about to reach HyenA levels.
BTW it's nice to see some motherfuckers get lit the fuck up in a girl group video. I was getting sick of these bitches holding heat and not firing it. Looking right at your Qri and Jiyeon.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who thought that your Jieun/Sunhwa blunders were intentional? .___.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing..
