1.2The reason that I chose “Emo” is because it is very unique cultural paradigm. Emo is not jut only about the style of music like almost everyone thought. It is also about emotional state of mind and the way emo people express themselves.
1.3Emo is originated as a music genre in the early 1990s. It is close to punk and rock music. However, it is known as ‘emotional hardcore’ or “emocore’. Unlike hardcore rock, this is more of an alternative way to let emotional people’s feeling be known. Emo is just not only about the style of music. It is more about fashion and a way of feeling, hence the emotional. ‘Emo’ people often wear tight pants. They have dyed-black or dark hair that often covers their faces. The longer hair in front with the spikes in the back is also a more Emo or emotional style.
