I'm going CRAZY with this concept bc it's something i've never seen before in MUSIC: ANALOG HORROR
This is basically a type horror media done in the style of found footage, old VHS tapes, Beta or other pre-digital formats.
Let's see some examples in this THREAD 🧵
a karina eh mto preparada pra mídia no geral né.. o tanto que aquela bêbada desgraçada tentou fazer bait de gordofobia e a karina simplesmente não mordeu a isca nenhuma vez kk ou ela naturalmente tem mta empatia ou ela eh simplesmente MTO bem treinada
GUYS I'M BACK BC WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS???
I just visited aespa's website AND THERE'S A LOT OF CRYPTIC MESSAGES AND STUFF THAT LOOK LIKE A PUZZLE OMG THIS SO 😭😭

o conceito que eu chamo de “sofrencia sexy” seria quando artistas faziam músicas com letras tristes, mas com clipes e coreografias sensuais, geralmente com temas e cores mais adultas também… segue exemplos
💋 park ji yoon - adult ceremony (2000)
eles são tudo de ruim no mundo pq não satisfeitos em ter o humor pior q dos orbits, resolveram se misturar com fandom hetero de futebol além de serem tão doentes quanto as armys
💋E FINALMENTE CHEGAMOS NAS MAIORAIS!
Conhecidas como o principal grupo responsável pela popularização do sexy concept no kpop, SISTAR lançava em 2012 seu mega hit Alone
sim eu admito apesar de ser dancer, rapper e visual a karina do aespa mataria a tapas a maioria das main vocals da quarta geração quando se trata de técnica e controle vocal
The first time I got some some analog horror vibes from aespa was with the release of their 2023 hit song ‘DRAMA’.
The MV starts with a warning and a set of safety rules to follow while watching the Drama, adding an atmosphere of mystery and suspense.
hj em dia nos acostumamos com idols cada vez mais jovens, mas nas gerações anteriores do kpop era bem mais comum idols adultos debutando, e com isso, também era mais comum o tal do sexy concept
brown eyed girls - sign (2010)
t-ara foi um dos grupos mais populares a explorar esse conceito, que era considerado bastante arriscado principalmente para as mulheres, pois naquele tempo os conceitos fofos e inocentes ainda estavam em alta
t-ara - like the first time (2010)
So basically all of the above is why I’m SO EXCITED for the release of Armageddon!
As always, our girls from aespa and their team continue to push the boundaries of the industry through storytelling, new concepts, aesthetics, fashion & music!
The relatively new term "Analog Horror" became specially popular recently during the late 2010s with independent medias such as Creepypastas, Horror Games, and ARG's usually created and shared online throught Youtube, online forums and across all Social Media.
💋Seja com o grupo completo ou até mesmo em suas carreiras solo, as divas do SISTAR seguem até hoje esbanjando carisma e sex appeal por onde passam (além de serem um dos grupos mais unidos até hoje, vem coisa nova por aí!👀)
💋SISTAR - I Like That (2016)
💋JÁ PODE CHORAR?
Conhecido também como um dos grupos favoritos de todos os tempos de jonecito, AOA também optou por uma identidade mais madura para seu retorno em 2013.
💋aoa - confused (2013)
o aespa consegue fazer esses conceitos do real world tranquilamente agora eu GARANTO que nenhum outro gg conseguiria fazer os conceitos futuristas delas
tô falando sobre esse programa que ela foi hoje onde os idols vão beber com essa mana..
ela ficou o tempo todo falando sobre aparência, alimentação e peso pra ver se a karina ia falar algo problemático, mas amo que a karina não cai nessas
The official ‘Drama’ MV also seems to feature the concept of doppelgängers, with multiple scenes of the girls fighting what looks to be different versions of themselves (a concept often seen in analog horror media).
❗️ THE MANDELA CATALOG (2021) - by
@kisterkatalog
The Mandela Catalogue is a Youtube horror series which takes place within the fictional Mandela County, located in Wisconsin, which is terrorized by the presence of shape-shifting creatures named "alternates".
💋o girlgroup Secret da segunda geração foi conhecido por seus diversos conceitos sexy, além de contar com a diva Jun Hyosung, que seguiu fiel ao conceito até mesmo em sua carreira solo
💋Secret - Talk That
Now, back to our favorite K-Pop Global Superstars: aespa!
Since their debut in 2020, aespa has been pushing the limits of storytelling and worldbuild in the industry, establishing their own worldview throught music videos, songs and cinematic universe.
giselle addressed the issue and took full responsibility for her mistake using the group’s main accounts to communicate like a real adult would, instead of trying to justify and making excuses like uwu im such a cute lil dumb fuck
definitely wayy better than someone saying the n word with their whole chest and the apology being “i got caught up because i was feeling the song”
@aespa_official
❗️ The Backrooms (2019-♾)
The Backrooms are more considered to be a urban legend. The concept originated on 4chan in 2019 with a single eerie image. The internet become obsessed with it's core idea, expanding the story throught homemade viral videos & fanmade stories!

@krisstraub
LOCAL 58 is a Youtube horror series based on a public access channel from West Virginia.
Local 58 features a series of cryptic messages & emergency broadcasts, taking us to a world where the US has been invaded by disturbing creatures.
as vezes lembro das meninas falando q antes era só a karina, winter e ningning treinando e elas n sabiam qnd iam debutar mas quando a giselle chegou elas finalmente se sentiram como um grupo completo
🆙 not related to aespa but it’s been brought to my attention that the kpop girlgroup Dreamcatcher actually have their own ARG??? This is so cool😲
I wish the western music market would do more crazy stuff like this too!
I found this thread if you’d like to check them out 👇
❗️Gemini Home Entertainment (2019) - by Remy Abode
Gemini Home Entertainment presents us with an alien invasion of our planet Earth thanks to another planet in the solar system.
Red Velvet’s Wendy speaks on protest trucks outside SM Entertainment building:
— “Come on, no more trucks no more emails. No more trucks, no more emails. It’s been 10 years for us. We can handle it, we got some power!”
Ok so ummm.. idk if i'm slow but i just discovered aespa's website (i know😭😭) and it features their own ARG !!!
I totally recommend that you guys check it out for yourselves, and i also made another thread bc i was so excited when i found out abt this😅
GUYS I'M BACK BC WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS???
I just visited aespa's website AND THERE'S A LOT OF CRYPTIC MESSAGES AND STUFF THAT LOOK LIKE A PUZZLE OMG THIS SO 😭😭
ja tem uns fubangos se fazendo pencas nesses quotes eh OBVIO q eu acredito q ela seja uma boa pessoa ne porra meu twitter sendo dedicado inteiro pra ela se manquem
aespa really have the best fans and I’m glad that the company is finally listening. but I can’t help but wonder how can a company that big run out of ideas for their artists so quickly specially after debuting aespa who has one of the most interesting concepts out there…
kwangya 119 finally replied to the styling, concepts, graphics artists, music genres, and album design templates we sent for aespa and confirmed that they’ve been forwarded to aespa’s team.
now we pray that their team takes our suggestions seriously and implements them.
o público geral gostando dessa mas os próprios “fãs” delas só servem pra reclamar assim como reclamaram de tudo da era my world e dps ficaram pianinho quando spicy hitou
