Constellation buying rest of Crown for $1.85B

VICTOR, N.Y. (AP) ? Constellation Brands is buying the remaining 50 percent stake of Crown Imports LLC that it doesn't already own from Anheuser-Busch for $1.85 billion, giving it more U.S. control over Corona beers and other breweries.

Shares of Constellation added $1.74, or 8 percent, to $23.50 in premarket trading on Friday.

The acquisition will make Constellation the third-biggest total beverage alcohol company in the U.S., the company said Friday. Constellation has imported, marketed and sold Modelo brands in the U.S. for nearly 20 years.

Constellation is buying the stake from Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV, which on Friday announced that it was buying Constellation's joint venture partner on Crown, Grupo Modelo, for $20.1 billion.

Other beers owned by Crown Imports LLC include Corona Extra, Corona Light, Modelo Especial, Pacifico, Victoria and Negra Modelo. Constellation's brands include Simi, Svedka vodka and Robert Mondavi.

Constellation Brands Inc. will suspend a $1 billion share buyback program which is about $700 million shy of topping out.

The transaction gives Constellation and Crown complete, independent control of distribution, marketing and pricing for all Modelo brands in the U.S. InBev will handle supply continuity, product quality and new innovations.

Constellation, based in Victor, N.Y., says it has fully committed bridge financing in place for the deal. Permanent financing is expected to include a combination of revolver borrowings, a new term loan under the company's current senior credit facility and the issuance of senior notes.

The deal, which still needs regulatory approval, is expected to close during the first quarter of 2013. Constellation anticipates that the transaction will significantly add to its future earnings per share and free cash flow.

(AP) ? House Republicans won a historic political fight to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress, but the GOP probably is still a long way from obtaining documents it wants in an investigation of a bungled Justice Department gun-tracking operation.

There are two routes to enforcing the contempt citations approved by the House on Thursday, a criminal prosecution and a civil lawsuit, although the White House on Friday virtually shut down the criminal path. The civil route through the courts would not be resolved anytime soon.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said Justice Department going back to the administration of President Ronald Reagan has not pursued prosecutions in contempt cases involving assertions of executive privilege.

President Barack Obama invoked a broad form of the privilege to prevent sending department documents to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. The chairman, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., is leading the effort to get the material related to Operation Fast and Furious.

"This is pure politics," Carney said.

"Remarkably the chairman of the committee involved here has asserted that he has no evidence that the attorney general knew of Operation Fast and Furious or did anything but take the right action when he learned of it.

"No evidence, so if you have no evidence as he has stated now about the White House and the attorney general, what else could this be but politics?"

More than 100 Democrats walked out of the House chamber to boycott the first of two contempt votes, saying Republicans were more interested in shameful election-year politics than documents.

Republicans demanded the documents for an ongoing investigation, but their arguments focused more on the need for closure for the family of slain Border Patrol agent Brian Terry. Two guns from the gun-tracking operation were found near his body after a shootout in Arizona.

Democrats promised closure as well, but said a less-partisan Republican investigation was the only way to get it.

Adding to the emotion of the day, the family of the slain agent issued a statement backing the Republicans.

"The Terry family takes no pleasure in the contempt vote against Attorney General Eric Holder. Such a vote should not have been necessary. The Justice Department should have released the documents related to Fast and Furious months ago," the statement said.

It all happened on the day that President Barack Obama's health care law survived in the Supreme Court, prompting some Democrats to speculate that the votes were scheduled to be overwhelmed by news stories about the ruling.

About five hours after the court ruled, with news sites flooded with information about the health care ruling, the House voted 255-67 to declare Holder in criminal contempt.

The matter goes to the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, who works under Holder.

A second vote of 258-95 held Holder in civil contempt and authorized the House to file a lawsuit.

In past cases, courts have been reluctant to settle disputes between the executive and legislative branches of government.

The issue became more complicated when Obama invoked a broad form of executive privilege, a legal position that is designed to keep private certain communications of executive branch agencies.

Issa's committee will consult with the House counsel's office about a court challenge to the administration's decision not to cooperate, spokesman Frederick Hill said.

The documents were written after Fast and Furious was shut down. The subpoena covered a 10-month period from February 2011, when the Justice Department denied that guns purchased in the U.S. were allowed to "walk" across the border into Mexico, to early December 2011 when the department acknowledged the earlier assertion was in error.

Republicans said the contempt citations were necessary because Holder refused to hand over documents that could explain why the Obama administration took 10 months to come clean about gun-walking. The operation identified more than 2,000 illicitly purchased weapons. Some 1,400 of them have yet to be recovered in the failed strategy to track the weapons to gun-running rings.

Reading Forex News | Auto Finance

Perhaps this advice is something you?ve heard before, but you have got to have a well defined trading plan, that includes a set of trading rules, and you need that all before your first trade. Let?s be truthful ? without a good FX trading strategy, you ? the FX trader ? are destined to fail. And believe it or not, a great many traders actually have no FX trading plan in place whatsoever.

And one of the most important components to a good trading strategy is simply this, regularly and faithfully reading FX news.

As you no doubt know, trading currency is a global phenomenon, and it happens 24/7. What that means is that while you slept something happened that affected some currency ? maybe even the ones you plan to trade today? Without awareness of how global events impact your trading strategy you may find that your trades are in the losing column, as opposed to the winning one.

When you understand how events impact the currencies of interest to you, you can plot your future trades and take advantage of unfolding events, or you can sit your future trades out ? which sometimes ? is the best course of all.

Your chances of becoming a successful FX trader are significantly higher when you ensure that you are reading FX news regularly, and putting what you?ve read into action.

Get Money Online At Home - Internet Based Business Articles

Trying to make money on-line at home can be very easy or difficult, based on many diverse aspects and variables. Many home based businesses thrive and make their owners wealthy but some combat for a time and then fold. If a faltering company has had a substantial amount of time and cash invested into it, the outcome can be devastating. It is feasible to develop a profitable enterprise from your house though, as long as certain steps are followed.

Always perform all of the study that is needed before commencing any home based business endeavor. See to it that the designed sector and business design are very well planned out and meticulously created. A common error made by many business men is to hurry into a business without pondering ahead or planning for every conceivable eventuality. Being equipped for unpredicted occurrences can mean the difference between staying in business and failing.

If the goal is to generate income on-line from home then the individual needs to approach this objective sensibly. Everyone wants to earn a lot of money with smaller effort but this is about as likely as winning a lotto. For a home-based business to be prosperous, it must have a noticeable online presence and high search engine rankings. Simply throwing up a standard website and anticipating lots of traffic and income generation is not a sensible plan. Instead develop advertising concepts and possible SEO campaigns to support the business succeed before the business enterprise is ever developed.

Set a realistic time frame and the expected objectives at each point. Some goals may be reached simpler than others. Running commercials in the local newspaper and in on-line journals will help inform consumers of the company, and link building activities can help improve business visibility too. Enticing site visitors to the business can be very difficult in the beginning, and a considerable amount of effort should be put in this way.

Before any business enterprise is initiated the person should know everything possible about each factor of the business structure. This may mean several weeks of research and assessing various types of online business models to determine which one performs best with the individual in question.

Anyone can make money from home if they are dedicated enough and ready to be trained.

Google makes the Nexus 7 tablet official: Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and a $199 price (video)

Google makes the Nexus 7 tablet official Android 41 Jelly Bean and a $199 price

Some of the mystery has been taken out of it, but Google has officially taken the wraps off of the Nexus 7, its first reference-grade tablet. The 7-inch slate is the first and currently only device shipping with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, and takes advantage of its optimization for smaller tablet screens, magazines and movies -- it's also the first to ship with a finished Chrome for Android. Like was widely suspected, the tablet is built by ASUS (shades of Eee Pad MeMO ME370T, anyone?) and mostly draws our attention in terms of what we get for the money: that quad-core Tegra 3, 1.2-megapixel front camera, NFC and 1280 x 800, IPS-based LCD are traits we'd normally look for in a pricier tablet. How much pricier, you ask? Google is asking just $199 for a dainty 8GB model and $249 for a 16GB version -- that's a lot of speed for the money, especially with a $25 Google Play credit and a slew of bundled content. There's no SD card slot, however. We'll test the Nexus 7 as soon as we can, but you can swing by Google Play (and possibly local stores) to order one in Australia, Canada, the UK and the US with a mid-July shipping window.

Check out our full coverage of Google I/O 2012's opening keynote at our event hub!

Obama and Biden strike at Romney on overseas jobs

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) ? President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden unleashed a back-to-back assault Tuesday on Republican challenger Mitt Romney, re-emphasizing Democratic assertions that Romney as a venture capitalist sent U.S. jobs overseas and paid no heed to the impact on American workers.

"You've got to give Mitt Romney credit," Biden said while campaigning in Iowa. "He's a job creator in Singapore, China, India."

Obama, who was holding fundraisers in Atlanta and Miami, cast his Republican rival as the type of wealthy investor whose only goal was making money no matter the cost.

"Governor Romney and his allies believe that we should go back to the top-down economics of the last decade. They believe that if we eliminate regulations and we cut taxes by trillions of dollars, we just leave the market alone, that everybody will prosper," Obama said in Miami Beach. "They argue that if you help corporations and wealthy investors maximize their profits by whatever means necessary, whether it be layoffs or outsourcing, union busting or whatever means are available, that will automatically translate into jobs and prosperity to benefit everybody."

Behind the criticism of Romney's business record is the Obama campaign's belief that the effort to undermine a potential Romney strength ? his experience as the successful head of the private equity firm Bain Capital ? is yielding results and raising questions with voters.

Biden made note of news reports that Bain took over firms that sent jobs to China and India and opposed union efforts to increase wages and improve benefits. The Romney campaign has argued that the reports aren't accurate and don't take into account how work done overseas supports U.S. exports.

"The president and I don't see American workers as part of the problem. We see them as the heart of the solution," he said.

Romney campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul called Biden's comments misleading and said they were an effort to distract voters from Obama's "disastrous economic record."

"President Obama has failed to meet his own standard for lowering unemployment because he has no idea what it takes to get our economy moving again," Saul said in a statement. "On Day One, Mitt Romney will take action to jumpstart our economy and give job creators the incentives they need to thrive here in America."

The back and forth on Romney's business record has become a familiar campaign theme. A political committee supporting Obama began airing an ad over the weekend accusing Romney of making millions while shutting down an Indiana paper plant.

Biden was beginning a two-day visit to Iowa, a swing state whose six electoral votes could be significant in the November election. He spoke to more than 400 people, many of them union members from a John Deere factory, transit workers and members of a public employees union.

For Obama, it was the second day of targeting Romney. He emphasized that their contest is a choice between ideologies, not a referendum on his own performance.

"The question is not whether we need to put more folks back to work or whether we need to see the economy growing faster or whether we need to bring down our debt," he told the crowd of donors in Atlanta. "The question is how do we do it."

The president held two fundraisers in Atlanta, followed by two events in Miami Beach, including a performance by singer Marc Anthony, raising at least $2.3 million.

Obama was holding the fundraisers at the start of a pivotal week for his campaign. The Supreme Court is expected to rule on his health care overhaul law on Thursday, passing judgment on the most significant piece of legislation during his presidency.

And it comes as Obama and his team have warned that Romney and his Republican allies would outspend him during the presidential campaign.

In an e-mail to supporters Tuesday, Obama bluntly stated: "I will be the first president in modern history to be outspent in his re-election campaign, if things continue as they have so far."

The urgent tone was designed to spur more giving. Until last month, Obama had been by far the leading fundraiser in the presidential contest. But Romney, after securing the nomination, has consolidated his support.

Romney raised more than $76 million last month for his presidential campaign and for the GOP, compared to $60 million for Obama and the Democrats. Obama's advisers say they expect Republican-leaning super PACs to pull in $1.2 billion before the election, posing a big-money challenge for the president. Obama has more than $100 million in his campaign account, but Democratic super PACs have struggled to raise money.

Obama has now raised the stakes, saying that even without the help of GOP-leaning super PACs, Romney could still outspend him.

"You're going to have more money spent in this election than ever before by the other side on negative ads," Obama said in Atlanta. "And their message will be simple. They'll say, the economy is bad and it's Obama's fault."

What Would President Romney Do?

The problem for Democrats is that if Romney takes office in 2013, none of this stuff will have actually happened yet. Repealing the law in its abstract form is a bit politically risky for Republicans but not nearly as risky as it will become in the future. Already in 2011, House Republicans were thrilled to vote for a ?Repeal the Job-Killing Health Care Law Act,? even though it was obvious that the president was never going to sign it. If in January 2013 Republicans control all three branches of government, there?s no reason to think they?ll grow more timid. In a statement immediately following the Supreme Court?s decision, Romney promised to ?act to repeal Obamacare? on his ?first day if elected president of the United States? and if Congress puts a bill to that effect on his desk, he?ll do it.

Asia Gold-Currencies, euro crisis hit demand; premiums steady

* Rain gods rather than government eyed in India

* Premiums steady in Hong Kong, Tokyo, Singapore

* Asian demand subdued

By Siddesh Mayenkar

MUMBAI, June 27 (Reuters) - Weaker local currencies are

weighing on gold demand from India, the world's largest consumer

of the precious metal, and Indonesia, another leading Asian

buyer, as traders also favour cash on concerns over a

deterioration in the euro zone crisis.

Premiums stayed steady in Hong Kong, Tokyo and Singapore.

Traders in India, Asia's third-largest economy, are also

waiting for the monsoon to pick up, which could boost the income

of farmers, who buy more than half of India's gold.

"If the monsoon turns weak, jewellery demand will go further

down ... we are now dependent on gods rather than government,"

said Haresh Acharya, head of bullion desk of Parker Bullion in

western Indian city of Ahmedabad.

The fall in the rupee, which hit a record low last week, has

sent Indian gold prices soaring despite the weak global

trend, limiting imports. The rupee is important in determining

the landed cost of the dollar-quoted yellow metal.

The Indian government doubled import duty on gold to 4

percent in March in a bid to curb its bloated current account

deficit.

"Business is zero... the situation is very bad as there are

no hopes of appreciation in the rupee," said Acharya.

Gold was flat at $1,571.50 by 0548 GMT, after falling

on Tuesday on worries that a global economic slowdown triggered

by a worsening debt crisis in Europe could prompt investors to

turn to the relative safety of the U.S. dollar.

[I D: nL6E8HQ78B]

"We have seen very slow demand. They are worried about the

debt crisis in Europe, everybody is trying to keep more cash on

hand," said Dick Poon, manager, Heraeus Metals in Hong Kong,

adding the depreciating currency is also an issue for traders.

Traders are eyeing yet another European summit slated for

Thursday-Friday, the 20th such meeting called to try to resolve

the spreading crisis, which has sent gold prices to a record

high of about $1,920 an ounce as buyers seek safe havens.

Premiums on gold bars in Hong Kong stood around 70 cents to

a dollar an ounce above London prices, steady from a week

earlier. Premiums in Tokyo were also steady at 50 cents, while

in Singapore, premiums were flat at 70-80 cents.

There was a lack of enthusiasm among traders in Indonesia

before the traditional buying period of Ramadan holidays due to

depreciation in the local currency, dealers said.

"Despite Ramadan, buying from Indonesia is not high compared

to previous years as their local currency is weak," said a

Singapore-based dealer, referring the Muslim fasting month that

starts in July, when gift giving is at its peak.

China's jewellery market also entered the summer lull, with

no major festival in sight until early October.

WEEK AHEAD

Latest rainfall figures out from India suggest a below

average rainfall so far from June and another weekly update is

expected on Thursday. The Indian weather office is still

predicting an average monsoon.

Buying from rural areas accounts for about 60 percent of

gold imports, and farmers depend on monsoon rains for better

yields, production and profits.

Farmers often invest in gold due to a lack of banking

facilities in rural areas.

How Andrew Garfield Changed 'Spider-Man'

The British actor was instrumental in providing Peter Parker with a skateboard and some much-needed wit in the 'Amazing' reboot.
By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Josh Horowitz


Andrew Garfield in "Amazing Spider-Man"

Among his many powers, Spider-Man has one "Amazing" gift that perhaps you don't already know about: He is a skilled skateboarder.

Andrew Garfield, the British actor filling out Peter Parker's shoes in director Marc Webb's "Amazing Spider-Man," brought many ideas to the superhero reboot's table, including his character's proficiency with a skateboard. Speaking with MTV News, Garfield said that "a lot changed" over the course of shooting "Spider-Man," including his very own idea to have Spidey wield a board at numerous points throughout the movie.

"It was my idea that this iteration of Peter would skateboard, maybe because I skateboarded when I was a kid, and it's something personal to me," the actor said at the "Amazing Spider-Man" press junket. "It linked in so nicely with being able to activate the powers in a new way."

Garfield teamed up with director Spike Jonze's Girl and Chocolate Skateboards and persuaded the powers that be to include scenes of Peter messing around with skateboards, adding some levity to an otherwise "heavy" script.

"What's always been important about Spider-Man to me is the lightness, the humor and the enjoyment of a teenage kid getting these powers. In reality, what would happen?" he said. "We pitched the idea to [the Spider-Man producers] and they shot it. I thought that was awesome."

Another scene that changed due to Garfield's input: the infamous carjacking sequence that sees Peter in full Spidey regalia for the first time, webbing up and taunting a criminal with lots of laughs and very little restraint.

"That was important to me, in terms of the humor, the wit, finding the power of anonymity," he said. "That was a fun night, because it was all improvised and free. There was nothing scripted about that. That was awesome."

Overall, Garfield found the entirety of "Spider-Man" to be "a forever evolving process," thanks in large to Webb's place at the head of the film.

"It was all changing," said the actor. "Marc set up an environment where we could play, and that was really, really nice."

Judge Koh stops US sales of Galaxy Tab 10.1, puts a smack down on Samsung (updated)

Judge Koh stops US sales of Galaxy Tab 101, puts a smack down on Samsung updated Judge Koh enjoins sales of Galaxy Tab 101, puts a smack down on Samsung

Thought Samsung was out of the woods when it defeated Apple's attempt to prevent it from selling the Galaxy Tab 10.1 stateside? Well, Apple appealed that decision and was given a second crack at banning Sammy's slate last month -- and it looks like Cupertino made the most of the opportunity, as Reuters reports that Judge Koh has granted Cupertino's request to enjoin the sales of the Galaxy Tab 10.1. Details are scarce at the moment, but we do know it's only a preliminary injunction, meaning if Samsung's ultimately victorious in the case, the injunction will lift and it'll be free to peddle its wares once again. Still, it's certainly bad news for the Korean company, but given its expansive stable of other slates still on sale combined with its recent economic performance, we're sure Samsung can weather the storm while the courtroom fireworks continue.

Update: All Things D got a copy of Koh's order, and we just gave it a quick read. Turns out that she granted the injunction due to the strength of the merits of Apple's case and the unlikelihood that Samsung would invalidate Apple's design patent -- the court already held that the 10.1 is "virtually indistinguishable" from the iPad's design and likely infringes Apple's IP. Furthermore, Judge Koh held that, because Apple and Samsung are direct competitors in the tablet space and "design mattered more to customers in making tablet purchases," Apple would be irreparably harmed by further 10.1 sales. Those two factors outweighed any hardship suffered by Samsung, and thus, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 was stricken from US shelves.

Where's The (Real) Love?: The Portrayal of Relationships In K-Pop ...

K-pop, like all forms of music, is a great place to escape and tune out the doldrums of the real world, by becoming completely ensconced in eye candy, fast beats, and catchy hooks. However, behind all the fun and games, the songs and MVs of idol groups can have problematic messages embedded in its lyrics and storylines.

The majority of, if not all, K-pop songs are about the many facets of love and relationships, and their MVs are usually centred around the trials and tribulations of a girl or boy in love, or out of love, with their future, current, or past signficant other. Many of these MVs portray relationships and love in general in an exaggerated and sometimes, grossly distorted way. The messages found in the songs and MVs are sometimes shocking and offensive, which is worrisome because they are being readily consumed by a young audience. Many of these songs and MVs that I will discuss shortly, have been banned because of the violent material they carry or sexual content, but the ones that weren?t, due to a lack of violence or sexual content, are just as deeply problematic. What?s also worrying is that these messages are not specific to a single group, or entertainment company roster, and can be found throughout the industry and its groups. The repetition of these messages create problematic tropes that can be easily found in a plethora of K-pop songs, and they are usually songs that become very popular, which only abets their prevalence.

It seems that in most MVs, love isn?t depicted as being a part of life, but it is something that sucks the life right out of us and our lives completely revolve around it.? We have idols in MVs being completely passive within life and are completely immersed in their relationship, practically exchanging their own distinct life for the one who is supposedly your true love. This trope is pushed further by even promoting that by having your life completely revolve around him or her, and try to make his or her life with you completely worry and trouble-free.? This is a common premise in most girl group MVs, with ?Hug Me Once? by Girl?s Day and SNSD?s ?Genie? being noteworthy examples, and reiterates misogynistic stereotypes that men should be the dominant ones in a heterosexual relationship, one that should completely revolve around him, with his female counterpart having to dote upon and try to help him in any way she can. Once their relationship dissolves, the girl is usually found moping around her room, bemoaning her loss, and doesn?t seem to pick herself back up again, and there isn?t anything at the end of the MVs that alludes to that. We do have MVs showing boy groups sitting around in their misery, but there aren?t any MVs that show men clinging on to women, having their lives revolve around them, or singing songs about making every wish of his girlfriend or wife come true.

Another aspect of this male-centred relationship is that during the beginnings of their relationships, girls are always the ones who are completely uncertain and shy about love. Rarely do we find boy groups singing and acting in MVs where they are struggling at confessing, the only exception being boy groups who are considered ?flower boys,? boys who are effeminate, meaning they look and act in ways that are commonly associated with women, or at least, how women should look and act. But generally boy groups are portrayed as the more experienced, ?older? ones in the relationships, and can find themselves playing the stereotypical ?bad boy? or? ?player? role. Some MVs, and songs, go even as far as to imply that men should not be sensitive or timid in terms of relationships, and should be more active and act confident. Girl groups even find themselves perpetuating this trope, like Secret?s ?Shy Boy? and 2NE1?s ?Pretty Boy.?


There are also many MVs that imply that the only way to be desirable is by? your appearance alone. For boys, there are many geek turned chic MVs, like Big Bang?s ?Last Farewell? and Super Junior-M?s ?Super Girl,? telling boys that the way to a girl?s heart is by adopting this tough guy appearance, which usually means that they should wear expensive-looking clothes and upgrade from regular glasses to sunglasses.

The latter two examples don?t even show the girls accepting the boys for who they truly are, but only their superficial alter egos. It can go both ways for women as well, with MVs telling girls that appearance is key, and confidence lies in how one looks. In 2NE1?s ?I Am The Best,? although it?s a song about confidence, like many 2NE1 songs, the only reasoning the girls use to support their belief in them being ?the best,? is their appearances. In the MV for Lee Hyori?s ?U Go Girl,? although the lyrics are about confidence as well, the MV is all about how Lee Hyori, or rather the girl she is playing, can get the man of her dreams by changing the way she looks. Most lyrics of songs about boys being in love with girls list the things the boy(s) like about the girl(s) they are singing about, a list that centres around how the girl looks, in a objectified way. They look at various aspects of the girl, her legs, her eyes, her smile, and don?t see the girl as a whole and sentient being. Songs like 2PM?s ?10 out of 10,?? just shows to girls that the only source of her beauty is through her features, not how she is as a person. The emphasis on appearance may be the result of an extremely appearance-conscious culture, but this still does not excuse the message that both young men and women will never be good enough, or desirable, unless they look like this or that, which only lowers their self-esteem and self-worth.

Finally, there are MVs and songs show the darker side of relationships, the possessive and abusive side, but in a completely trivial and romanticized way. Somehow, being completely possessive, and aggressively so, towards one?s significant other managed to become attractive within the mainstream, especially when men act that way towards women. It?s been popularized by books like Twilight, and deeply frightening that teens are taking this messages to heart and associating them with love, when it is not love at all, not even the least bit. Songs like DBSK?s ?Mirotic? toy with this message, which can be blatantly found with such charming lyrics such as:

What is love? What! It?s now meant by the Red Ocean
I?m breakin? my rules again, you know it?s getting boring
Even if you?re hurt a bit, it?s okay Oh~

and the chorus

You want me, You?ve fallen for me, You?re crazy over me
You?re my slave, I got you under my skin

The song even begs the question, ?Is this love?,? and? I honestly tell you DBSK, and Cassies, no it is NOT. If you take away the fact that DBSK is singing this song, the lyrics seem like they are the musings of? a delusional stalker or abusive significant other. Although the song was bought by SM, and Yoo Young-jin only helped with its composition, the fact that they still released the song with its lyrics is still mind-boggling. Even though they were forced to change ?skin? to ?sky,? the creepy message still remains, just with a confusing lyric at the end of the chorus.

The MV of ?Mirotic? makes it seem like DBSK is the one being dominated by this faceless woman, but when accompanied with the lyrics, and placing DBSK in the singing position, the interpretation of the MV could be altered to the faceless woman trying to push DBSK away from her and DBSK trying to dominate over her. Either way, relationships shouldn?t be where one partner has the the upper hand of the other, or having someone ?wear the pants? in the relationship. It should be about mutual respect, and lyrics like in ?Mirotic? are just promoting terrible messages to fans, that are somewhat willing to accept these kinds of lyrics out of some devotion towards their idols, which is saddening.

The next stage in this trope is when the possessive partner becomes violent. MVs with these storylines have very little context as to why this violence is occurring, and sometimes the explanations for the violence are petty and completely random. MVs for MBLAQ?s ?Y? and Song Ji-eun and Bang Yong Guk?s ?Going Crazy? trivializes violence, making it seem like it?s an act of love or passion, when it?s really just a moment of sheer psychosis and mental breakdown. There is nothing wrong with using a mentally unstable person in a MV, provided it is done in a meaningful and logical manner, not nonchalantly and with absolutely no motivation except for a warped version of love, which MVs like these don?t show it as. It?s something that seems to be taken lightly by entertainment companies and these MVs don?t really provide any context as to telling that?the ones committing the violence are in the wrong, especially in MBLAQ?s ?Y,? it goes by quickly and suddenly, without a word, or any repercussions, except for maybe crying over what they had done, furthering the belief that they truly love this person.

Like in all developed countries, domestic violence is a huge problem that often goes unaddressed and unreported in South Korea and is more likely to be brushed off as being just a lover?s quarrel, a mindset derived from the cultural stigma against involving oneself into the private lives of another. That is why when MVs, like Tablo?s ?Bad? and Bang Yong Guk?s ?I Remember?? have the nerve to present domestic violence in a trivial, and even romanticized way, it furthers the misconception that domestic violence isn?t that big of a deal. Tablo?s lyrics??love is so bad??accompanying with violence the male is committing against the woman is utterly offensive; the abuse this woman goes through is not love, it?s a man trying to dominate and abuse his wife or girlfriend. What?s even more disturbing is the final scene of the MV, where the two end up huddled together in an embrace, which just reiterates the ?lover?s quarrel? misconception over domestic violence.


In Bang Yong Guk?s ?I Remember,? during the opening scenes, the man suddenly begins to beat his wife or girlfriend, before, just as quickly, the two fall lovingly in each other arms. On both counts, the violence isn?t addressed at all, and in Tablo?s ?Bad,? it?s used in a symbolic and hyper-sexualized way. Even though younger viewers were prevented from watching these MVs, no one, even if you are of age, should be watching them at all. Domestic violence is something that to be taken seriously and should be shown for what it is, a traumatizing and horrifying experience, that has been shown in Korean movies like Punch Lady, and perhaps even promote and support the limited resources available for people who are abused by their signficant others by maybe including into an MV. Just a thought.

Although there are many MVs and songs that have accurate representations of relationships are and should be like, the lingering existence of these misrepresentations of love and relationships negates any effort a MV does to give an realistic take on love and relationships. What?s even more unsettling is how these MVs and songs managed to be become popular despite the messages they blatantly portray, but what?s even more unsettling is that these people behind all these songs and MVs?who are almost all middle-aged men?have the power to present to fans, who are mostly made up of teens and young adults, healthy relationships and handle the darker aspects of relationships in a thoughtful and appropriate manner, not randomly or carelessly. The constant use of these aforementioned tropes only reinforcing terrible messages and harmful ideals towards impressionable demographics , especially when idols are considered as role models.

All of the songs I listed are extremely catchy and nice-sounding, many of them were are personal favourites of mine, in terms of musical quality, but I cannot deny that messages the songs and MVs are not helping matters, and even encouraging obsessive and destructive behaviour because of the nonchalant way these real-life issues are handled. This is not acceptable and should stop immediately, and will only happen if entertainment companies and us fans acknowledge these problematic messages and show love and relationships for what they truly are, and reinforce that love is a part of our lives and real love is about having a healthy relationship made of mutual respect and caring for one another.

So Seoulmates, what MVs and songs have you watched and listened to that showed misrepresentations of love and relationships, or even songs and MVs with great representations? Share them in the comments below!
