Seohyun's Dispatch video has stirred laughs inside the Filipino K-pop community for using THIS campaign audio.
Here's what happened.
Dispatch Has Fans Laughing Their Heads Out for Using THIS Song in SNSD Seohyun's Video
On March 3, Dispatch uploaded a video on platform TikTok, which featured Girls' Generation's youngest member Seohyun departing for Milan fashion week earlier on February 20.
The video showed Seohyun flaunting her graceful visuals and casual fashion, much to the delight of SONEs. However, the video mostly caught attention for a different reason, all because of the audio Dispatch had used.
Filipino K-pop fans stormed the comments section, expressing laughter over the content, and asking if Dispatch was fully functional. According to fans, the audio used for Seohyun's video was from the famous "budots" dance song in the Philippines.
The song, imbued with numerous remixes, has become a well-known track locally and is loved for its comical, upbeat tune.
In the video featuring Seohyun, Dispatch specifically used the version of "budots" from the senatorial campaign of politician Bong Revilla Jr., during the 2019 elections in the Philippines. The video has since mass-produced numerous memes among Filipino netizens.
"I literally had to double check if this is the legit account of Dispatch."
"Dispatch, what is it now this time?"
"Why are you like this, Dispatch lol."
"Oh please, this is Dispatch going at it again. Are you all okay?"
"Seohyun's beauty is considered 'aircon' level, yet the song choice has 'canal' humor."
"Dispatch lmao you're too much, why pick this one out of all songs?"
"I really thought this was a fan edit, so I had to check the account first. When I did, it is Dispatch's official account."
"Hey, I thought I didn't hear the background song right. But anyways, our Seohyun still looks pretty in the video."
"Who is your social media manager? Why does it sound like this?"
"Who's responsible for this account, Dispatch? I can't with the humor lol."
"I will never understand Dispatch's reasoning for these song choices."
The video also managed to reach X (Twitter), where Filo K-pop fans hilariously pointed out Dispatch's unseriousness!
