ALSO NEW THIS WEEK

តាក់ម៉ា (Takma) - "បែកមួយជាតិ" (Bek Mouy Cheat)

This Cambodian music video tells the story of a man who decide to break his engagement with a woman because he wants to live his love with another man. It's pretty unusual in Asian music videos, because generally, the man breaks up with his boyfriend to marry a woman. This difference is perhaps due to the fact that homosexuality is quite rare in Cambodian music videos, and the local music industry is less influenced by other countries like Thailand, Taiwan, South Korea, even Vietnam, where homosexuality is more present, and where the stereotype of the gay man who finally marry a woman in MV is regular (particularly since the smash South Korean music video "Please Don't" from K.Will, which had an incredible impact in Asia in 2012, even if it wasn't the first to represent that stereotype). By the way, there is a second part of this MV (that's why the video is 10 minutes long), where the ex-fiance is really depressed and can't forget her man. She drinks a lot, and she even almost kiss her girl best friend as she is drunk. Quite sad.
