Korean alt-rap visionary Zior Park returns with his latest single “TWISTED FANTASY”, and it’s every bit as bizarre, infectious, and genre-defying as fans could hope for. Known for his eccentric visuals and experimental sound, Zior once again proves he’s not here to follow the rules. The track is a slick bop, dripping with weird charm and backed by a visual that dives headfirst into a world of the grotesque, absurd, and darkly humorous.
The music video for “TWISTED FANTASY” feels like stepping into a dream conjured by Frankenstein, Tim Burton, and a K-hip hop alchemist. Zior plays the part of a mad scientist trying to resurrect a body — a clear nod to the classic Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — in a spooky, theatrical setting. The real curveball? A deeply surreal funeral scene where Zior is turned into a dog, making this one of the creepiest and most creatively disturbing visual narratives we’ve seen in K-rap this year.
Musically, “TWISTED FANTASY” is polished, catchy, and offbeat. Zior’s vocals alternate between hypnotic croons and rapid-fire delivery, laid over production that fuses hip-hop with psychedelic alt-pop. The beat bounces with playful swagger while the lyrics dance between romantic obsession and existential dread — classic Zior Park. It’s a soundscape where weird meets wonderful, and somehow it all just works.
Lyrically, the song is cryptic but compelling, delving into the twisted sides of love, self-perception, and identity. Zior’s wordplay feels like he’s narrating a fever dream, blending absurdity with vulnerability. The chorus is oddly addictive, with lines that echo long after the track ends. It’s this balance of madness and melody that makes Zior Park such a standout voice in Korea’s growing alt-hip-hop movement.
Visually, the video elevates the experience to a full-blown short film. Gothic funeral aesthetics, creepy resurrection tables, absurdist acting, and that uncanny dog transformation—every moment pushes boundaries. It’s not just a video; it’s a performance art piece that cements Zior’s reputation as a boundary-breaking artist who’s unafraid to lean into the surreal.
