Not sure, but I suspect it's because they want you to buy the DL sometimes.

Another oldie from 2012. Watch volume on this. Video plays ok in spite of broken cover image.

Compare the video above, and the one below. Look how saturated in color Korean music videos are how Japanese videos are subdued. Is that telling of general personality differences between the two cultures? I understand there are some overlap in taste of ballads. I think this was due to a lot of Korean ballads ripping off Japanese ones back in the 90's.

Another differences between the music vidoes the contrast. Japanese videos have low contrast. The dynamic range is narrower of the picture.

I'm not sure but I think that style of music video was popularized initially by JYP, he loves the super cutesy style and it translates in to everything else including the music videos. I think he copied American style music videos with similarly exaggerated color saturation.

In contrast, YG loves the dark theme, as represented by Black Pink.

Theres a saying, that many people are quoted to have said.

“Good artists copy, great artists steal.”

Steve Jobs said this once but I think the best example of this is the chifi gear in the last decade.
