BLACKPINK “How You Like That” – Face Swap Video Template

Turn Yourself into a BLACKPINK Member in One Click

Use Magic Hour’s Face Swap Video template inspired by BLACKPINK’s “How You Like That” to put your own face into an iconic K‑pop music video–style scene. In a few minutes, you can generate a high‑energy performance clip that looks ready for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts—no manual masking, rotoscoping, or VFX skills required.

What This Template Does

This template uses Magic Hour’s production‑grade AI Face Swap engine to replace the original performer’s face with yours (or any reference face you provide), while preserving:

• Expressions and motion: Head turns, lip movements, and micro‑expressions stay synchronized with the original choreography.
• Lighting and shadows: Your swapped face inherits the music video’s dramatic studio lighting, color, and contrast.
• Hair, outfits, and background: The AI changes only the face region, keeping costumes, styling, and sets intact.

The result is a stylized K‑pop performance clip that still feels like a real scene from a high‑budget music video.

Who This Template Is For

• Creators & influencers: Fast, repeatable content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts with minimal production time.
• Agencies & marketers: Concepts, fan engagement assets, and social teasers that test quickly without full shoots.
• Developers & startup teams: Rapid prototyping for AI video experiences, fan apps, or interactive campaigns using familiar K‑pop formats.

How to Remix This Template in Magic Hour

You don’t need editing software to use or customize this. Everything runs in the browser inside Magic Hour.

1. Start from the Face Swap Video template:
   Open Face Swap Video to launch the base template used for this BLACKPINK‑style effect.
2. Upload your reference face:
   Add a clear photo or frame of the person you want to appear in the video (front‑facing, good lighting, and minimal obstructions work best).
3. Apply face swap to the performance clip:
   Select the BLACKPINK‑style video and apply the face swap. Magic Hour will automatically track the face across frames and render a new version with your face integrated.
4. Preview and fine‑tune:
   Play back the video directly in Magic Hour. If you don’t like your reference angle or expression, swap in a different source image and re‑render.
5. Export for your platform:
   Download the final video and publish it to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or any other channel you use for distribution.

You can also chain this with other Magic Hour tools. For example, generate a stylized still with the AI Image Generator, then turn it into a short performance clip with Image to Video and finally apply this face swap template for a fully AI‑built K‑pop moment.

Template Features

• Music‑video style framing: Shots are composed like modern K‑pop MVs—tight close‑ups, dynamic angles, and quick cuts that feel native to short‑form platforms.
• High‑energy choreography: The original dancer’s movement is preserved, so even if you never learned the “How You Like That” choreo, your swapped face appears to perform it flawlessly.
• Platform‑friendly output: Works well for vertical, square, or horizontal formats, so you can tailor exports to TikTok, Reels, or YouTube.
• Natural lip and eye motion: The AI maintains blinking, eye direction, and lip movement from the source footage, helping your face feel anchored in the scene.

BLACKPINK “How You Like That” – Context & References

“How You Like That” was released on June 26, 2020 as a pre‑release single from BLACKPINK’s first studio album The Album. The track blends trap, EDM, and pop influences with strong themes of resilience and empowerment. The music video set multiple YouTube records on release, including most‑viewed video in 24 hours at the time, and has since accumulated over a billion views (sources: YG Entertainment, YouTube viewership milestones).

Key visual elements many creators try to echo:

• Bold, high‑contrast set design (icy blues, neon pinks, and gold accents).
• Statement outfits and dramatic hair/makeup looks.
• Highly synchronized group choreography and powerful close‑up performance shots.

By starting from this template and remixing it with your own face, you’re effectively creating a derivative performance inspired by this visual language—ideal for fan edits, reaction content, or AI‑driven concept tests.

Ideas for Advanced Remixes

If you’re building more ambitious content or products, you can combine this template with other Magic Hour tools:

• Make your swapped face talk or sing:
  Use Lip Sync or AI Talking Photo to match mouth movement to your own voice or an audio track.
• Transform the visual style:
  After swapping faces, restyle the clip with Video to Video or animate into a different look (anime, manga, comics) with Animation.
• Generate concept art & covers:
  Build supporting visuals like thumbnails or cover art using the Thumbnail Maker, Album Cover Generator, or Book Cover Generator.
• Polish production quality:
  Clean up assets using the AI Image Upscaler, Video Upscaler, or remove distractions from photos with Remove Object from Photo.
• Create full character systems:
  Use AI Character Generator, Avatar Generator, or Animated Characters Generator to design alternate personas, then face‑swap them into different performance templates.

Best Practices for High‑Quality Face Swaps

• Use a clear, well‑lit reference image: Frontal or near‑frontal, no heavy shadows, and minimal glasses/obstructions will yield cleaner swaps.
• Match vibe and angle: If the original scene has dramatic side angles or strong expressions, choose a reference that roughly aligns with that mood.
• Stay on‑brand for your audience: Adjust your captions, sound, and posting strategy so the video fits the narrative of your channel or campaign.
• Respect rights and platform policies: When using AI face swap on recognizable public figures or IP‑inspired content, follow local laws and the terms of platforms where you publish. Many creators clearly label AI‑generated or “fan edit” content in descriptions.
