Despite the MV being described as being inspired by “Midsommar”, numerous netizens argue that the similarities go beyond mere inspiration and instead consist of a complete replication of multiple elements from the film.
Consequently, a lot of people are of the opinion that Red Velvet’s music video for “Cosmic”bears a strong resemblance to Midsommar, to the extent that it can be considered a complete imitation.
The following are comments from internet users:
- The movie appears to have been copied and pasted, so it may require some slight modifications.
- It’s just Midsommar… Why can’t they show some creativity…
- Is this just a Midsommar cosplay? Whose idea was it?
- No, this is not considered influence; rather, it is blatant copying.
- This is not an homage, it is simply a copy-paste. If you refer to it as an homage, you are disregarding your conscience.
- It’s unfortunate that the song is not complemented well by the inspired scenes. It begs the question of why they chose to include them in the first place, especially since the song itself is quite good.
