Chirpy Korean Girl Group Likes Glitter, Knee-Highs, Iowa Hawkeyes Football
Via the good lads at Black Heart Gold Pants comes this music video for which I have no words, other than to say that it is no more inexplicable than the last time women in Korea fawned over a Hawkeye.
The group is called Girls' Generation and, like all Korean pop groups, it seems to have teleported in from an acid trip someone had in 1995.
Deadspin's Korea expert — my mom — reports that the song touches on such themes as shyness and wanting to talk to someone but not being able to. Also: Iowa Hawkeyes football.
