The multinational girl group has sparked a debate about whether they can truly be considered K-pop.
Donning sari-inspired clothing and intricate jewellery, four young women are seen dancing energetically at a temple. Then, gulal, a colourful powder used in traditional rituals, is spread across the sky and onto their faces.Blackswan is currently the only K-pop girl group without any Korean members that made its debut in South Korea. In 2017, an all-American K-pop boy band, Exp Edition, debuted in South Korea but they are no longer active.
As the genre continues to globalise, the girl group has become part of a growing conversation about the definition of K-pop - and whether they fall within those lines. But its members are unfazed by such comments, saying that they identify themselves as K-pop group, in addition to singing in Korean - thus making them a K-pop group.
In 2020, music company DR Music decided to rebrand Rania into Blackswan - with Fatou being the only one from its original line-up.
