The much-anticipated release of SuperM's debut song Jopping MV has finally happened, and the song immediately reached No. 1 in the iTunes charts of over 30 countries. As expected from the teasers released for Taemin, Baekhyun, Kai, Mark, Taeyong, Lucas, and Ten, the MV took a futuristic action vibe and provided fans with dance music they can enjoy.
SuperM's Jopping easily topped the iTunes charts of Argentina, Armenia, Belarus, Brazil, Brunei, Cambodia, Chile, Estonia, HongKong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, Mexico, Mongolia, Oman, Peru, Philippines, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, UAE and Vietnam. This showcased the strong anticipation among KPop fans of the idol group touted as the Avengers of KPop.
The elaborate Jopping MV, co-produced by SuperM's management SM Entertainment and Capitol Records, took on a mix of a Hollywood action movie and a high tech stage wherein the members showcased their choreography and dance skills. Fans were also treated to the reveal of what Jopping meant. It turned out that Jopping was a mix of jumping and popping, Teen Vogue reported.
To make the music more appealing to an international audience, SuperM's Jopping was written mostly in English but with Korean lyrics to stay true to its KPop vibe.
In an interview with Korea Herald, Mark explained that Jopping is a great opening salvo to mark SuperM's Hollywood debut on October 5 in front of Capitol Records Building. "The song is quite powerful and a great track to perform to."
Fans have been raving over the world-class level of the music and the stage that SuperM has used to introduce themselves to the world. Supporters of Taemin, Baekhyun, Kai, Mark, Taeyong, Lucas, and Ten were impressed with many elements of the music video, including the slow-motion fight scene, the flawless and powerful dancing and the members' fluency in the English language.
It was earlier reported that SuperM, an idol group composed of members of four existing Kpop idol groups under SM Entertainment, was developed to introduce a super idol group to the world. SM's partnership with the iconic Capitol Records, which handled the careers of The Beatles, Nickelback, Frank Sinatra, Katy Perry, and Jennifer Lopez, could widen the reach of the KPop industry.
Their participation of Taemin, Baekhyun, Kai, Mark, Taeyong, Lucas, and Ten should not worry fans of SHINEE, EXO, NCT, and WayV as the management assures that they will not be skipping their original group's activities while promoting for SuperM.
