The popular Korean genre has cemented striking music video production as one of its features. From renting expensive studios to traveling overseas to shoot a music video scene to using chroma keys and computer-generated images, all these are efforts to treat fans with world-class releases every debut and comeback season.
However, despite technological advancement in video editing, some K-pop music videos have left fans in awe with how they refused green screens!
Here are K-pop music videos that didn't use computer graphics to give a realistic scenery:
1. 'God's Menu' by Stray Kids
For Stray Kids' first studio album, "GO Live," the JYP Entertainment stalwarts featured "God's Menu" as their title track. The track was conceived with 3RACHA's hopes to integrate various instruments with modern and intense hip-hop sounds.

2. 'On the Ground' by Rosé
When the official YouTube channel of BLACKPINK shared the behind-the-scenes for this music video, BLACKPINK's main vocalist shared that her experience in shooting this music video was an encounter to remember.
The Korean-Australian singer mentioned that the scene where she ran through fireworks was "one of the most frightening but exhilarating experiences" of her life.
Regardless of the girls' professionalism when they shot scenes with fire, it could be seen in the behind-the-scene snapshots that members had fun as they teased one another and sang along to the song during filming.
