Red Velvet didn’t cease with simply the music; from the outfits to the artwork within the music video to the discharge day, all of it was associated to Bach and the classical period.
Love how Red Velvet is taking it to the subsequent stage. Instead of simply sampling the music even their teasers, make-up, album & mv, highlights the classical music idea. Not to say within the mv they even pays homage to a number of well-known artworks. They even dropped the cb on Bach bday https://t.co/FGc4WC8e6N
