South Korean girl group formed by YG Entertainment, BLACKPINK has succeeded in making new history with their legendary performance at one of the biggest music festivals in the world. BLACKPINK is the only girl group from South Korea to headline the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
In addition, the performance of this four-member girl group managed to attract 250 million viewers through YouTube live broadcasts and also created a crowd of more than 125 thousand people to watch Jennie et al perform. Of course this makes loyal BLACKPINK fans proud. However, there are several parts that have caught the attention of Korean netizens.
One of them is the fact that the group incorporates traditional Korean elements into their stage productions. Adapting Allkpop, in an online forum netizens discussed Korean elements that BLACKPINK brought to the international stage so that the world could better recognize South Korean culture.
One of them is the use of Dancheong as a decoration for the main stage which is the background for Jisoo's solo performance. Quoting an explanation from Wikipedia, Dancheong is a traditional Korean decorative coloring on wooden buildings and artifacts for aesthetic purposes. BLACKPINK also includes Buchaechum, or the traditional fan dance from Korea.
As for the traditional patterns on the clothes worn by Jennie, as well as the moment when the members waved the Korean national flag as they walked on stage. It didn't stop there, netizens also expressed their pride when the members said goodbye in Korean before the members left the stage.
BLACKPINK not only introduces the country's culture, but also the beautiful language of their country of origin. Following are K-netz's responses in online forums about BLACKPINK's appearance at Coachella, according to Allkpop and Theqoo.“It's amazing how they did this even though their nationalities are actually quite diverse.
They pay homage to Korea in a certain way.” "I like their clothes....love the way they design it like that" "The dancheong stage is so beautiful" "I'm so proud..." "It felt like their own concert" "Yeah, of course it has to be the scale for those headlining Coachella!" "It's so legendary." "So cool... crazy."
