Earlier this month during their online concert, MAMAMOO released a sneak peek at their upcoming song “mumumumuch.” It featured the members dancing poolside with green mountains behind them, looking like a late-summer bop.

Today, they uploaded a teaser video onto YouTube with the same scene — except this time, the mountains had been edited to be magenta!

Some people have even pointed out that the editing ended up spreading into the members’ hair too! In this shot, Solar’s and Hwasa‘s heads have a bit of that magenta color on top of their actual hair color.

The magenta/pink/purple has reminded fans of previous MAMAMOO videos too! In “Starry Night,” released in 2018, there are mountains full of magenta plants.

Netizens are divided on their opinions about the edit, with some saying it totally fits the K-Pop music video vibes while others are saying it looked better before.
