DREAMCATCHER, a seven-person K-Pop girl group that is currently attracting worldwide attention. They have a different musicality and world view from other girl groups. Based on the dark and unique concept of “Nightmare”, the powerful rock sound and mysterious world view showed a new attraction that could not be seen in the existing K-Pop girl groups, giving a fresh impact to the public. Now that they have just released the first album in Japan, I want to talk about their charm.

Even with the dark concept of a nightmare, it's full of originality, but they're not just fighting with an unusual image. They have a heavy metal rock that is very rare for the K-Pop girls group and expresses the dark concept more effectively with its intense sound. Until now, girl groups have adopted rock sounds several times, but in the case of DREAMCATCHER, a clear theme is included in the musicality, so the sound and the view of the world have produced a great synergistic effect. Of course, this extraordinary combination could only be realized with the high skills of members who can perform dynamic dance performances that blend into powerful vocals and intense guitar sounds without a sense of incompatibility.

DREAMCATCHER's view of the world is an epic nightmare story that connects with each piece of work. The story connects not only sound and concept, but also music video and artwork. For example, the group name “Dream Catcher” is an ornament that is passed down to American Indians and is an amulet that protects children from nightmares. They also use the pattern of the dream catcher for group symbols and album artwork, changing the details of the pattern for each album, expressing the changes in the theme and story for each work.

The story of the nightmare that supports their worldview will be expanded in units of works. The “Chase Me” recorded on the debut single “Nightmare” was composed of seven members who became their nightmares and annoyed humans. As a result, “GOOD NIGHT” recorded in the 2nd single “Nightmare-Fall asleep in the mirror” spreads desperate pursuits with Nightmare Hunter. And in “Fly High” on the 1st mini album “Prequel”, the story before the members became a nightmare like the prequel of the movie, and the answer to “Why have these girls become a nightmare?” presents. In subsequent works, the immersive feeling was enhanced with a consistent story, such as moving through the times or approaching the vague boundary between dreams and reality.

The article ends with a small contrast with other K-pop groups: Twice & Black Pink. They note how popular Twice's concert is and how cool Black Pink's is, yet Dreamcater is a unique presence with beauty, nobility and are bewitching!
​

Seven members form such a unique world view of DREAMCATCHER. Leader JiU, Dami, Sua, Siyeon, Yoohyeon, Han Dong & Gahyeon. The only thing with beauty, nobility and bewitching that makes a distinction between a refreshing and cute “Girl Lovely” like TWICE, which is already popular in Japan, and a cool “Girl Crush” like BLACKPINK. It has a unique presence.

This is a decent article!

Short though it may be, it certainly highlights Dreamcatcher to anyone new to the group in Japan. I love how he defines Dreamcatcher; beauty, nobility, bewitching. Very true!
