Article: [MV Hot Spot] Red Velvet 'Happiness'... an experience only possible by SM
Source: OSEN via Naver
1. [+2,746, -50] First of all, I don't even know what they're saying in the lyrics
2. [+2,713, -31] The overall feels reminds me of Everland...
3. [+2,562, -86] They all look the same, I can't differentiate them.. ㅠ
4. [+2,510, -139] Their visuals are definitely lacking compared to SNSD andf (x)
5. [+1,759, -56] Certainly bizarre ㅋㅋㅋ
6. [+456, -15] All I hear in the song is lalalala happiness lalalalala ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
7. [+411, -10] The lyrics sound like rap to me and the music video itself is dizzying... They don't have any face that stands out like f(x) either.. ㅜ I looked forward to them
8. [+452, -54] SM's female idols always start poorly but do just fine later on
9. [+368, -8] I can't differentiate their faces because they all look the same, I guess I have to memorize them by their hair colors...
10. [+370, -18] They're only getting attention because it's SM... I don't think any other group would've started off like this from another company. I think this group has to be the first that starts their debut off getting hate.

I don't wanna read back, so can someone tell me about this Red Velvet controversy?
The song and video are cute, it's a great debut.

Hiroshima bombing references + "japs"
9.11 references

The 9/11 and bomb reference weren't needed at all. Period.
They would flip if an American Pop star used the Sewol Ferry incident in the same way. It was reprehensible and the girls deserved better.
And Hiroshima disaster, so disrespectful.

They reading SM and these poor girls DOWN... Only negatives, nothing positive

I just feel so bad for these girls because they worked for this moment for so long, and now it's gone horribly wrong.
I hope we don't have to wait a year and a half or something for them to come back.

The dislike bar on YouTube
And the lyrics
Quote:
Sometimes
You gotta be bold
Just rock the world
Booya!
Lalalalalalalala (Happiness!)
Lalalalalalalala (Happiness!)
Are you happy, huh?
Your worries, throw up
Bubbling feeling, change up
I said get strength now, wind up
A whole bunch of cool things all happen at once
My charms, up
Style, up
Feeling good, my young speed
Should I tell you the secret to how to live so happily?
Wake up in the morning
Tell your mom that you love her
(Oh my good daughter)
The “Happy” that kept following me around
Is so cute that I become happy
(She says)
The money, the power
You just keep keep keep keep chasing after it
The adults have all changed
They’re not really happy
Happy memories, cool memories
Make, make, make the world good
That money, that power
It’s been awhile since we’ve stopped giving attention to it
Choose, choose, I choose dance
I just do what I want
You just worry, worry
You’ll just regret it when you get old
Yesterday, today, tomorrow
Searching for happiness is my adventure
I’m a bit different, different
The power of optimism is helping me
Lalalalalalalala (Happiness!)
Lalalalalalalala (I support you!)
Lalalalalalalala (Bigger!)
Are you happy, huh?
On my way to school
The friends that I meet link arms with me and laugh
I like it
The boys I’m close with have all joking around
When I pass by, they notice me
I like it
Stop complaining
Think I’m the best person in the world
Hey hey, the adults on TV who only know how to fight
Get back
I like it more and more
I’m happy because I am me
What makes me feel better
Is that you’re next to me
The money, the power
You just keep keep keep keep chasing after it
The adults have all changed
They’re not really happy
Happy memories, cool memories
Make, make, make the world good
That money, that power
It’s been awhile since we’ve stopped giving attention to it
Choose, choose, I choose dance
I just do what I want
You just worry, worry
You’ll just regret it when you get old
Yesterday, today, tomorrow
Searching for happiness is my adventure
I’m a bit different, different
The power of optimism is helping me
Lalalalalalalala (Happiness!)
Lalalalalalalala (I support you!)
Lalalalalalalala (Bigger!)
Shine on me
Baby, shine on me
Into my embrace, let it shine
Shine on me
Let it shine on me
Into my embrace, let it shine
Lalalalalalalala (Happiness!)
Lalalalalalalala (I support you!)
Lalalalalalalala (Bigger!)

As distasteful as it was of the MV directors to include that there, I don't think much is going to happen because SM will cover it up. SNSD had something similar with one of their Genie album covers and nobody really knows about it anymore.
Doesn't change the fact that the song is a cuter, crapper version of IGAB tho

Those lyrics aren't completely non-sensical though and actually do somewhat hold relevance to modern society, so I don't know whats "  " about them.

I hope they at least managed to perform before seeing the comments. 
f(x) fans already hated this new group as well as some SNSD fans, the idea of a new girl group wasn't even that warm in the first place for SM fans and now there's all this extra stuff they shouldn't have to deal with.

I was not saying rip about the lyrics being non sensical or whatsoever. In my head I was thinking how the hell they come with this idea of MV
