Seoul Town Road Outtakes

My (self-imposed) restrictions for Seoul Town Road were no repeated sources, vidders, or musical artists. Additionally, I wanted to showcase vidders who weren't part of the Vidukon/Vividcon/Fanworks/etc set of vidding fandom or, when I did include those vidders, I tried to limit myself to vids that were less likely to have been shown recently. That plus the time constraints of a single vidshow meant that I eliminated a lot of vids that were in my first cut.

I'm mostly not going to list multiple vids by the same vidder or other vids by vidders already in the show, but you should definitely check out the vidders' other work.

My absolute favorite vids that I cut because I thought most people would have seen them already

• skygiants, Our Ghost (시카고 타자기 | Chicago Typewriter) Canonical character death, nongraphic violence.


• helcinda, Rewrite the Stars (더 킹：영원의 군주 | King: The Eternal Monarch) Nongraphic violence.

Vid I cut because another vid by the same vidder fit better and also it was kind of long

daegorr, Game Over (알함브라 궁전의 추억 | Memories of the Alhambra) This was also tempting because I only had one kpop vid in the show, but ... I wanted something to use the same vidder for a romance with a supernatural male lead (very common genre) and I thought this one might be too similar to Meliora MV's "Natural", which had an edge partly because I'd seen the source. Action movie violence.

Vids I cut because I couldn't decide between the two of them and also they were kind of long

• beccatoria, Matches to Paperdolls (선덕여왕 | Queen Seondeok) Non-graphic violence.


• shati, Hope on Fire (선덕여왕 | Queen Seondeok) Non-graphic violence.

Vids I cut because I had more dark/grim/suspense/horror vids than I could use

• pteryx, Will I Make It Out Alive (multi). Graphic violence, death, zombies, apocalypse, general bleakness, gunshots, explosions, quickcutting.


• Headsunder, the end has already begun (손 | The Guest) Horror, exorcisms, gore, graphic violence, death, extreme creepiness.

Vid I cut because I already had enough vids to eerie elecronic songs sung by sopranos

MoonCalledA, washed out (달의 연인-보보경심 려 | Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryo) Death, blood, violence (PG-13? Low R?)

Vid I cut because I already had an Imagine Dragons vid and also I found a vid for the same source to more unusual music (for a kdrama vid)

irxdxscent, Believer (Vincenzo) As a rough guess, 75% of all kdrama vids on YouTube are to Imagine Dragons or Billie Eilish. Graphic violence, gunshots, explosions.

Vid I cut because I couldn't deal with the source dialogue without the source background music removed

reiichi, Symphony (WISH YOU: 나의 마음속 너의 멜로디) I was so tempted, because except for those two dialogue bits, this is an adorable vid for a canon m/m pairing. But I really couldn't deal with those two dialogue bits. No standard triggers.

Palate cleansers

I ended not including anything really goofy because ... I am an overserious person. Sorry. But here are some palate cleansers:

• skygiants, Weird Friends (성균관 스캔들 | Sungkyunkwan Scandal) No standard warnings.


• shati, Kim Yoon Hee's the Man (성균관 스캔들 | Sungkyunkwan Scandal) No standard warnings.


• imbir, Motel Six (호텔 델루나 | Hotel del Luna) Death, blood.
