^ I'm excited to see the rest of the video and I agree with you with you about the lack of a smooth transition with this song to Japanese. I'm sure it will grow on me a bit better since I love "Hot Summer" but they could use a bit of improvement with their pronunciation.

According to their official Japanese website, f(x) will be holding their first showcase titled "f(x) Premium Showcase ~1st Shock" on October 18 and 19th at Zepp Tokyo.

The set used in the teaser of the video reminds me a bit more of winter than summer, lol.

EDIT: Got my words a little mixed up, lol.

It sounded like they were speaking Korean for a sec.

Still I await the release!

Their pronunciation was awful and it always irks me to see the Japanese PV versions of Korean hits looking better than the originals.

I don't know how I feel about Japanese Hot Summer. I feel bad for them, especially those that are also struggling to learn Korean (like Amber, and I think Victoria?) because their pronunciation is all over the dang place. But I don't hold it against them personally, but I know lots of Japanese netizens will.

I'm more flaily over Amber wearing that Chicago Bulls shirt. Nobody was a bigger Bulls stan when I was 8yo.

I actually really like Victoria with blonde hair.

I really liked the music video. I loooved the sunglasses in it, haha, especially the ones with flowers on them that Krystal wore. I'm only a second year Japanese student at my university and even I could tell their pronunciation was off. I hope Japanese listeners/viewers don't judge them too harshly for that.

They also performed "Electric Shock" but all of the videos have been taken down due to copyright issues.
