"Red" pushes HyunA's hypersexualized image to the next level, both lyrically and visually. The pre-chorus and chorus in Korean are everything, but confusing when translated to English:
Don’t leave me,
I’m so lonely right now
At least you don’t leave me,
I’m the only one here
Red is Hyuna, Hyuna is yeah
A monkey’s butt is red, what
Red is Hyuna, Hyuna is ah... (...wtf?)
Throw in a twerkable, G-Dragon b-side type instrumental and "Red" is HyunA (I guess).
Her delivery and vocals are similar to Lip Service's "Yum Yum Yum", a K-rap song about dieting and the pressures of being thin.
The music video is HyunA being a K-Pop chameleon and sporting a ton of different looks (my favs are Lorde HyunA, Cleopatra HyunA and Sad Gel and Glitter Haired HyunA) , booty smacking and shaking and other forms of debauchery that the Korean Ministry is gonna have a field day with. There are also monkeys and phallic symbols.
