South Korea has determined that every single class of middle school students will do a choreographed dance to "Mister" by the insufferable K-pop group Kara at the school festivals scheduled throughout the country in December.
Other unanimous selections in recent memory have included Jewelry's "One More Time," Wonder Girls' "Tell Me," Ivy's "Ah-ha," and Kara's "Pretty Gull". This year "Mister" beat out Super Junior's "Sorry Sorry" and 4minute's "Hot Issue," a race that was especially tight because all the finalists came equipped with ready-made dances and random English.
The country has also unanimously decided that the performances will take hilarity to heretofore unimagined levels if boys do the dance while wearing girls' clothing.
HT to Lisa.

You are quite the popsong crumudgeon these days.
Aw, come on, it was funny.
And I did say I liked that new G-Dragon song.
Watching Kara is fun because the leader of the group hates the outspoken one that tries to get attention. Goo Hara was also picked as the hottest by the Japanese, and I have to agree.
I was going to make this song my k-pop of the week as soon as the was an official music video released, which I don't think there has been.
Plus the girls are wearing suspenders and jumper pants, I think those are boys clothes to begin with.
Jacob -- no offense meant to Brian's search efforts, but there is a better (High Definition) version from Music Core uploaded to YouTube here.
It features a couple of close-up / pan-outs of rear ends and at least one of the girls lifting up her shirt to (female) screams in the audience ... all in the first minute.
Thanks for that video.
No offense taken, but if you think I'm going to browse through every single Kara video, you dom't know me.
Brian -- I got lucky that the video I linked to is one of the top five search results (#4) and has an HD emblem next to the title. There's no way I'd go through each upload to compare video quality and choreography!
The lead singer is the most ridiculous one, I can't even look at her, especially when she tries to look tough.
I guess one of the members speaks English? People on the God-forsaken blog Pop Seoul are saying she's a native speaker and that her Korean isn't very good, but it sucks that she's bad at both Korean and English. Guess that's a lesson to parents: make sure your kid at least learns one language perfectly.
