K-pop music videos tell the most amazing visual stories. Over the years, their content has undergone tremendous changes, and the photography behind them is simply breathtaking. One such function that is often used is the portrayal of multiple characters.

9 K-Pop MV Plots That Portray Multiple Personas

Having said that, here are some MV plots that have introduced multiple personas of our favorite K-pop soloists and groups.

1. RM – “Joke”

RM plays the roles of patients, guards, doctors, and nurses. By showing off his crazy power, he makes his opponent taste his own medicine. With a flawless bar, incredible speed, and perfect rhythm, it can be said that RM's rap skills are no joke!

2. Jeon Somi – “What You Waiting For”

In this MV, we saw seven aspects of the artist while thinking about our love life. Each person is more decisive than the other, and they all have a common goal: to break Somi free from a relationship that’s been holding her back all this time.

3. VIXX – “Hyde”

VIXX vividly adapted Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", taking a page from the literature. Their roles of good and evil are interchangeable, so as their behavior toward her fluctuates, their interest in love is dispelled.

4. TWICE – “I Can’t Stop Me”

Starting from the early scenes in the MV, TWICE is facing a dilemma as they find themselves lured to the darkness. As they try to resist the temptation, they can’t help but feel that an inner force within them is driving them to take the opposite way.

5. KARD – “Gunshot”

In a classical good vs. evil plot, the quartet is stuck between two parallel but connected worlds. The good doppelgängers are suffering from the wrongdoings of their evil counterparts, that is, until Jiwoo takes action and puts an end to this bullying by eliminating her bad self to break the cycle.

6. EXO – “Obsession”

EXO is facing their dark selves X-EXO in duals that are simply impossible to win. With the song and MV’s theme revolving around obsession, it seems that the reason why the members can’t defeat their evil alter egos is that they are mutually projecting the feeling on each other.

7. Agust D – “Daechwita”

Agust D is not Suga’s only persona, as he introduced two clashing personalities in his music video: Agust D from the past meeting Agust D from the present. The storyline takes place in a historical setting with a modern touch, which emphasizes how things have changed during the period between the release of the first and second mixtapes.

8. Sunmi – “Siren”

Sunmi introduced the concept of multiple roles, which is not surprising because she always likes interesting content. Haunted by four versions of herself, Sunmi tries to escape the fantasy image represented by her Doberg dancers and is committed to finding comfort in her home away from the golden glitter.

9. WOODZ (Cho Seung Youn) – “Love Me Harder”

WOODZ takes the audience into a restless chase between his edgy hardcore self and his emotionally vulnerable self. The two make many jumps that distort reality to the viewers, with the main topic focusing on his toxic relationship that he can’t seem to realize on his own.
