Show Luo’s new song ‘Strong Reasons’ has begun to promote everywhere, and sharp-eye viewers have noticed that in the MV, the concept of fire turning into human is similar to Rain’s ‘Rainism’ MV - concept of water turning into human. The shooting tactics in this MV seems to be almost identical to Rain’s ‘Rainism’ MV, which was released in October. Other than that, even the pre-book posters have been accused of plagiarizing the album cover of Robin Thicke’s 2006 album ‘The Evolution Of Robin Thicke’ In response to this, Show’s manager expressed: “Show’s concept in this MV is that a person’s worst enemy is really himself, so Show depicts both good and evil. In the MV, fire is used as special effects, and if people think that this part is a bit similar, then there is nothing really we can say. However, the concept, appearance and special effects are very different in both MV, but they are both good. As for the poster, it purely is a picture found in a textbook depicting ‘the evolutionary history of man’. It has nothing to do with Robin Thicke, and they are not the same.” Examining both MV, Rain’s MV is black and quiet at the beginning, then under the raindrops, it transforms into Rain. After this, he leads 6 dancers and shows off a dance routine. In the MV, black and white exchange, and as they go into a party, it gives off a feeling like defeating a monster. Show’s MV is directed by Lang Wei Kang, and production costs are estimated to be 3,000,000NT (600,000RMB). It also begins with darkness and silence, and under the fire sparks, it transforms into Show. He leads 8 dancers and shows off a ‘Dancing Feet’ routine, that was choreographed by American dance teacher Link. In Show’s MV, there is more solo dance, afterwards, they enter a dungeon that is created by using special effects. The concept here is that Show is confronting his own demons. All we can say is that the beginning of both MV is quite similar, and water and fire is different, but seems to have tacit understanding. Source: sina Translated by: Sarah @ http://asianfanatics.net
