Maple's KPop Sundays: Super Junior's 'It's You'

Welcome to My KPop Sunday! 'My' as in Maple -- The Awesome Maple.
On Sundays I share a KPop video and some Trends to Sew ideas derived from it.
Today we have Super Junior's 'It's You' from 2009. Which I like to call 'Someone Needs a Hug.'
The beginning of the vid sets the stage -- a girl gives back a couple ring to one of the 600 Super Junior members. So obviously this is a song about breaking up.
If you don't know what a couple ring is -- it is something that appears in almost every KDrama in existence -- when two peeps become serious in their dating they typically get couple rings. It's like wedding rings before wedding rings. And not quite an engagement ring either. 
Typical timeline: 1) 2 peeps start dating, perhaps some chocolates, a hairpin or flowers for girl 2) Decision to be monogamous, couple rings - one ring for each peep, they typically match or coordinate 3) Decision to get married, engagement ring for girl 4) Marriage, wedding bands
Just in case you wanted to know all that. Ahahahaha. You know you did.
Highlights of the 'It's You' video, in order of appearance:
1) Acting lessons stat! Everyone in the vid is near tears.  But in a way that makes me LOL. Yes, the acting in this vid is a bit overdone. But that is what we like. ;-)
2) What are the chances that all of their girlfriends broke up with them on the same day???  I mean really, what are the chances? They really don't have good luck with women.
3) Note the car mechanic jumper which appears on several members. And amuses me. Because, dude, it is a car mechanic jumper.
4) The mouth-wiping, kiss-off dance move. Not sure at which moment in the vid this first appears, but keep an eye-out for it. It is the stuff of magic.
And of course...
5) The infamous heartbeat dance which has a cult icon status  in the land of KPop and KDramas. Once you know what to look for, you'll see it everywhere. Two methods of the heartbeat dance: a) You feel up your own chest, making a heartbeat thumping/tapping motion with one hand. b) You get someone else to play puppetmaster and they float their hand over your chest as if they are making your heartbeat with the thumping/pulling at your heartstrings motion. It is a complex artform. :-P

So what Trends to Sew can we get inspired by?
Well, we thought: vests, contrast piping, and blazers.
So here are your hip and trendy fashions for those ideas. Courtesy of yesstyle.com
