Claire's Top 10
Korean MVs That Should Be Turned Into Full-Length Dramas
Korean music is kind of a hot topic at the moment, what with the American k-con having been in October and very popular and Gangnam Style making the rounds. A couple of years ago if you'd asked me what my favourite k-pop song would be, I'd have asked you what on earth you were talking about and what is k-pop?I'd still be hard pressed to give you a definitive answer now, but for entirely different reasons - there’s just too much to choose from. From SHINee to Super Junior, 2NE1 to Girls Generation, Korean music is a genre of music which is entirely unique - with Music Videos to match. Korean MVs are unlike anything I've seen before. Stylish, with massive dance numbers, the sheer scale of these videos is quite often frankly amazing.

A lot of the MVs I've seen are just like big dance performances. The costume/make-up is very unique, and the sets are impressive, and with the size of some of the groups (SuJu has 13 members!!) the choreography is simply stunning. However, this list is not for the best MVs, or the best dancing/costumes/songs. I want to share with you my list of MVs which have a story - or could become a story. These are MVs which I think could (and should) become full length dramas simply from the MV itself, even if you ignored the song.
Please bear in mind that this is simply my opinion. Your opinion will most likely differ, and I have only seen a relatively small number of Korean music videos. This is by no means an exhaustive list, simply a selection of the videos I have seen and enjoyed - in no particular order. One thing I will say though, most of these are kind of heartbreaking. Prepare the tissues.
Let's get started!
#10 Gummy - As A Man
![http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/rwd/280346106295775482_a18cbed4_f.jpg](http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/rwd/280346106295775482_a18cbed4_f.jpg)
DREAM CAST: Ideally Kim Hyun Joong and Jyung Ryeo Won
#9 SS501 - SOLO Series
![http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/qc9/280339829439022038_2d4b4b9e_f.jpg](http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/qc9/280339829439022038_2d4b4b9e_f.jpg)
DREAM CAST: Lee Byung Hun as the bad guy, Lee Min Ho as the kidnapper/assassin, Joo Won as the boyfriend in the beginning, and Park Yoochun as the guy trying to get revenge. Then, Yoon Eun Hye as the female lead.
#8 B.A.P. - ONE SHOT
![http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/toc/280342967867398760_7b99aaca_f.jpg](http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/toc/280342967867398760_7b99aaca_f.jpg)
DREAM CAST: If B.A.P. couldn't do it, then Hwang Chan Sung as the undercover guy and Seo In Guk as the Group leader.
#7 Jeong Seul Gi - Finally In Its Place
![http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/5kf/280349244724152204_e8d8f9b5_f.jpg](http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/5kf/280349244724152204_e8d8f9b5_f.jpg)
DREAM CAST: Kim Ha Neul and Cha Seung Won--I like the idea of this as a slightly older cast than set in the MV.
#6 Park Bom - You And I
The video ends with her in a field with the sketch book on her own. We see the drawing of her and the words ‘Sorry I couldn’t protect you’. This would be a really sweet, but sad drama. The story of her loving him, despite knowing what’s coming and doing her best to make him happy. It reminds me a bit of Koizora, I guess.

DREAM CAST: Yoo In Na and Ji Hyun Woo--they were so good together in Queen In Hyun's Man
#5 TVXQ/DBSK - Before You Go
[PART 1]
[PART 1]
[PART 2]
(Sorry for the two-part video. I couldn’t find it anywhere together as one.)
Another crime drama entry, this one is pretty long for a MV. The story is pretty much all in the video - a guy working for the government while secretly taking orders from someone else - shooting his friend, killing witnesses - he basically seems like a bad guy. Until you get to the twist. This is perfect for adaptation. I especially love how close the group of friends seems, I think it gives it that little bit extra...something.![http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/dsx/280355521580905648_3885f173_f.jpg](http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/dsx/280355521580905648_3885f173_f.jpg)
#4 T-ARA - Day By Day/Don't Leave/Sexy Love
![http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/jfe/280368075294412536_f2ec7516_f.jpg](http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/jfe/280368075294412536_f2ec7516_f.jpg)
DREAM CAST: Possibly the hardest cast--Dani would be Lim Eun Hye, her sister would be Lee Honey, and the kidnapper would be Byun Jung Soo.
#3 FT. Island - I Hope
![http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/m55/280371213722789258_89a585eb_f.jpg](http://media.mydramalist.org/cache/m55/280371213722789258_89a585eb_f.jpg)
DREAM CAST: I like the idea of this as a kind of idol drama--You're Beautiful's Style. With Jang Geun Suk leading the bad and Yoon Seung Ah as the female lead.
#2 Bang Yongguk - I Remember (Ft. Yang Yoseop)
I simply love this video. It's simple, and to the point, and heartbreakingly sad. This shows a relationship which at first seems volatile, then you see the softer side, and a man willing to do anything to protect the woman he loves, even if that means giving up his life.

DREAM CAST: Kim Tae hee and Choi Jin Hyuk
As an extra here, I’d like to mention another BYG song, this time though one he’s only featured in. Label-mate SONG JI EUN - GOING CRAZY is another video that, with a bit of work, has potential.
#1 IU - You And I
"In the music video for "You and I", a girl travels in a time machine to meet her future boyfriend. The 19 year old IU lives with Hyunwoo -- a boy who has fallen into a deep sleep -- in a workshop inside a clock tower inherited by her grandfather. IU does not leave his side and while waiting for him to wake up, decides to make a time machine to go meet him. Finally, the long-awaited moment arrives and she leaves for her time travel both afraid yet excited about meeting Hyunwoo but the two miss each other as Hyunwoo wakes up the moment he reaches age 20." I think this would make a really cute fantasy drama. Also, could we keep the goose in it? Such a cute touch!

DREAM CAST: I think Lee Hyun Woo and IU are already brilliant as they are. Also, don't forget the goose!
And that's the lot! I have a big list written down here of other MVs that could have made it, but these are the ten I’d most like to see. But, as I said, these are just my opinions. Which videos do you think would be good as dramas/movies?
