Have you seen that BPM has been hacked by a Elon Musk impersonator and their entire account has now been terminated losing every video on their channel. This is so bad. I hope RU-vid have adequate recovery mechanisms in place as they should for a multi billion dollar company and can restore everything exactly as before.
OMG every time I watch this I see a new reminder of the GFriend storyline. From Apple 🍎 trees to Fallin Light ladders Yerin climbed on. So I really enjoyed watching you trying to spot some too. But Time for the Moon Night cassettes and Fever music video sets with flowers all played a part with Yerin recreating Yuju magically catching a butterfly 🦋 triggering Navillera memories. Cleaning the glass bead making it pristine for a GFriend comeback was the best bit especially as she enlisted Na.Vs to help do it. The whole setting was a return of The Witch Shop Reopens as Yerin uses her magic powers for good purposes. But the girl appearing at the end wearing an outfit so like the one Umji wore in the Mago music video made me rewind to make sure it wasn’t actually her.
Definitely butterflies 🦋 for me fixing the Glass Bead, which is needed for the redebut of GFriend seeing as it was pristine for their debut in 2015. My Favourite styling of Yerin is this comeback. I can see that she is taking this comeback very seriously with a full mini album and clearly she has been working out at the gym to get in the very best shape I have seen her since GFriend. No wonder she looks radiant now.
The singing in English instead of Korean could have been a factor to their guesses, because if they sang in Korean, I feel like they would have guessed differently
I think they both just guessed based on their personal preferences.. Hyojung's guess was her friend Seola who is also doing solo project, while Yuju's guess... hmm why am i not surprised that the name of Miyeon from gidle came out from her? 😏 😄
Some answers to your questions in no particular order: The MV is about people hating on them and calling them fake idols, and transforming into fans as the song progresses (you noticed some stuff already, like 가짜 아이돌 becoming 진짜 idol which you got right, fake idol becoming fate idol, etc.). They are not mocking first pitches btw (Chodan and Magenta did one very recently lol), its just the same narrative about the mascot calling them fake. The guy throwing eggs is actually another meme (back from the T-ARA scandal days, you like SNSD so you might have seen the original meme lol). Other comments already gave you the translation to Hina and Magenta's line but I think they missed a lot of nuance there. The first line is "Born from the algorithm", hinting at their streamer/influencer origins, but its written al(gorithm). The pun here is that al (알) means egg so this also hinting at "Born from the egg" lol Magenta's line is "To blossol over tinted glasses" which means to win and overcome prejudice. And finally, at the end after the song, Chodan says "Thanks for tuning in to 10:18 news" (10.18 is their debut date) and Soyeon says "It's been cloudy these days but finally tomorrow will be sunny". It's confirmed this is a prerelease with a mini album coming, so the current theory given all their hints is that the title track will be written by Soyeon and maybe will be title "Tomorrow is Sunny" but it's all speculation at this point lol
7:13 I'm lazy, thus a translation of the song through chat got and yes, Chadian&Magenta&Hina have their short moments: Nice to meet you, if we were to introduce ourselves, We are QWER For those who don't know, one more time ROLL ROLL ROCK & ROLL We are the discordant sirens Gathering the strength we've saved without crying Raise your voice in this moment Oh well, we are noisy Even if they mock us as fake We'll surely convey our sincerity to you Watch over us, we are your I-IDOL Ha ha, ha ha ha (OK!) Let's turn the world upside down Ha ha, ha ha ha (OK!) Your very own IDOL blooming on stage HA! OK! HEY! ONE! TWO! Q! W! E! R! Born from algorithms Let's bloom flowers over tinted glasses We'll play over the whole world Please listen carefully We are the discordant sirens Gathering the strength we've saved without crying Let's turn everything upside down Oh well, we are noisy Even if they mock us as fake We'll surely convey our sincerity to you Watch over us, we are your I-IDOL Ha ha, ha ha ha (OK!) Let's turn the world upside down Ha ha, ha ha ha (OK!) Your very own IDOL blooming on stage Even the monsters in the magical forest of fairy tales Can't stand in our way We'll strap on our guitars and run until we touch the sky! We'll sing! La la la Ha ha, ha ha ha (OK!) We'll give you a thrilling twist Ha ha, ha ha ha (OK!) Watch over us, we are your only IDOL HA! OK! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! Your only IDOL
They've been taking a quite a bit of flack from "faithfuls" of the rock and roll genre and k-pop fanatics at the same time since their debut. Some horrid and mostly damning critics in addition to streamer haters. The song paints a positive spin on it while yelling back at these critics. It's pretty much, 'born from algorithm, all people calling us fake idol, we'll show you now, because we are everyone's idol'. It's not translation, but this is what I got out of it between the lines. Melody is not super impressive at first, I think because it's not formulaic and is slight off beat to traditional k-pop. But more I listen to it, it's really warmed up, ready to catch fire.
For me my ranking is similar to yours. So similar in fact it is identical to yours except for me swapping round Permeate and One Thing as number 2 and 3. A great album in prospect.
I totally agree with you on this being the best style we have seen from Yerin. I actually commented on her community post when it was uploaded that her white outfit was so good we need to see it on her stages.
@@GermanSone did you see Yerin busking yesterday and performing Wavy and 4U. It was emotional watching Yerin tear up on stage when she spotted a friend filming her in the audience amongst the public standing watching. It was Yuju hidden behind a mask but that didn’t hide her from Yerin when she spotted her. Yerin looked and sounded fabulous by the way.
God Yeseo as Center is life!!!! Also wasn't there a video of Yeseo drawing the caricatures' of Madein? ...maybe she was drawing Kep1er members, but it was the same art style. Thanks for the reaction as always!!!
In the first teaser the people are critizing QWER, calling them fake idols. In the second teaser, the scene were they put a camera on Hina's face and the one where Siyeon breaks in Magenta's news are references to two famous Korean memes. Btw you missed that Magenta is playing a 5 string bass in some scenes, she has only played 4 string bass before this. They also have a ton of appearances on other channels besides the content in their official channel, so be sure not to miss those! They also have a lot of hilarious lives but unfortunately no subtitles 😢
Oh true, I can see her holding a 5 string bass in the shot where they are standing on Egg Kims head, that would be a big step for her O_O She is so hardworking. Yes, I am switching back and forth between their RU-vid and other Contents :D
Hey it's awesome to see you react to QWER! I had a feeling you would come across them sooner or later haha If you've watched most or all of QWER's content, I recommend checking out the QWER guide by a bored crab for a great recap on the band :)
I agree that this was definitely the noisiest Yerin video I have ever seen. I felt exhausted and my ears were shattered afterwards and I wasn’t even wearing headphones! So I laughed much more at your reaction to it as I knew what was to come and I had the volume turned down. Are you going to react to all of Yerin’s concept photos and teasers for her comeback? There isn’t anyone who has done that to my knowledge anywhere. Her teasers for the music video and the Rewrite highlight medley come out at the weekend too just a day before the new album drops.
@@GermanSone great (Buddy) minds think alike clearly. Haha 😝. Do not worry, the longer the video the more I enjoy it where GFriend are concerned. These photos need forensic examination to extract every last drop of significance and I have already commented on the RU-vid posts about the GFriend Easter Eggs hidden away for Buddies to enjoy.
Here is the link to the FULL reaction: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/kcj9f2013s7a0xxpyvrs5/fromis_9_inssadong_sulzzi_20.mp4?rlkey=9on9sqi1xwodumlv8xxh3n9ho&st=z2ms85gj&dl=0
3:54 I mean, are we surprised? These girls and their food, it's serious business 😁 First Yerin, now we also have Viviz's comeback to look forward to? LET'S GO
Yerin with the cassette beside a wide window is literally a nod back to her character in Time for the Moon Night. The fan and overall summer feeling are also reminiscent of Me Gustas Tu. The paper planes literally has something to do with Umji's scenes in TFTMN, Sunrise, and Sunny Summer. The wooden staircase is also very similar to SinB's first scene in Love Whisper MV. Yerin's hair color and scene at the rooftop also looks like Yuju's rooftop shot at the start of Memoria MV. the street near the train tracks is heavily inspired from her solo running scene towards the end of Rough MV. I'm so 🥺🥺🥺🥺
I am still waiting for BadVillain and VIVIZ to get together for a dance challenge. As the only two girl groups at BPM I would have thought that the company would have prioritised that as an actual schedule for at least some of the members. I wonder if we will ever see that now.
SADLY THERES NOT MANY "GENERAL PUBLIC" LEFT. S KOREA SUFFERIING FROM BAD ECONOMY TOO AND GOING FOR HARD WORK MULTIPLE JOBS STUDY ETC. NOT GOOD TIME FOR MUSIC INDUSTRY..
