Initially, the plot of “Don’t Say No” reminded me of Younha‘s “ Get It” with its use of the domestic space for revenge - Seohyun schemes in the kitchen, loiters on a refrigerator, and has a cold stare down with her former lover over plates of chain metal and screws. Even more impressive, not only did SM let Seohyun out of her image box, but they also gave her a full MV - with plot! Because it’s SM, it all still looks good, but that doesn’t inherantly make it cohesive my any means. Regardless of the visual overload, I can’t deny that the release is pleasing in the way that it is standard SM fare: trendy clothes, well constructed sets, good camera work. It’s a lot of visuals to take in three minutes, and even more tasking when the choreo shots with Holler era leotards are thrown into the mix. One minute Seohyun is bedazzled and glamorous with victory rolls in her hair, the next she sports full blown 80’s retro, then she’s sitting on the hood of a car in an evening gown. Only, instead of a clear aesthetic direction which “Russian Roulette” mastered, the fashion and sets of “Don’t Say No” are all over the place. She’s devious nearly to the point of being catatonic as she watches her lover in the rear view mirror, stares forlornly at her empty bed, and ultimately plots her lover’s murder.Īt times, the images on screen take a clear play from Red Velvet’s “Russian Roulette” - screws for dinner, robotic stares. Seohyun takes to the screen for “Don’t Say No” with all the fury of a woman scorned. She’s a twenty five year old woman, who has every right to break away from the piano playing, studious, and poised image SM has been pushing on her for the better part of a decade. ![]() The actual direction the solo ended up taking is admirable, as it is seemingly more true to the kind of music Seohyun wants to put her voice behind. Instead, we’ve been gifted a mature Seohyun who plots, frowns, and even murders.Īs Seohyun discussed in her comeback showcase, SM originally wanted to promote her with the image of innocence and a guitar - a concept that would fall right in line with the book worm innocence they’ve been marketing her for since SNSD’s debut. Gone is SNSD’s maknae of innocence and sweet smiles. Following the lead of fellow TTS members, Taeyeon and Tiffany, Seohyun hits the scene as a soloist with an image that is surprising to some, and expected for others. She also was clueless as to what happened behind the scenes.It was only a matter of time before SNSD‘s youngest, Seohyun debuted as a soloist. Look at God!”įormer Fox News host Megyn Kelly called the decision a “terrible movie by Fox” but “a great thing for Tucker Carlson” while discussing the exit on her podcast. “And I just think, as a faithful person: Look at God. “I don’t think anyone likes to celebrate the demise of someone’s career, but he is responsible for the degradation that we see somewhat of our democracy in this country,” Sunny Hostin said of Carlson. “Can I ask the audience if they’ll help me do something?” Ana Navarro said as she threw her hands in the air and led the crowd in a singalong to Steam’s 1969 hit “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye.” While Hannity appeared blindsided while discussing Carlson’s Fox News exit, other daytime hosts such as “The View” anchors rejoiced over the news. Carlson was expected to have to testify in the matter. agreed to pay $787.5 million in a settlement to Dominion Voting Systems after being accused of passing along specious conspiracy theories about its role in the 2020 presidential election. ![]() The host’s departure was announced just days after corporate parent Fox Corp. We thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor.” A spokeswoman for Fox News declined to elaborate. ![]() “For those who think I should, I say to those people: ‘I don’t own the company.’”įox announced Carlson’s exit in an April 24 statement that read: “Fox News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways. “I guess people think that because I’ve been there the longest that I’d have some knowledge or understanding of what’s going on, but… I just don’t,” Hannity added.
