Stop suggesting Guerilla!!!! It's by far the worst title track of ateez... Performance wise it's insane but musically it's quite frankly terrible, vocal and rap did not deliver at all. Only blind and stupid fan supporting everything think guerilla is actually a good song.
@@PNuwus Nah I'm sick of people recommending shit music just because the dance is crazy good. Kpop nowadays a settled for mediocrity in terms of music and focuses on dance way more. And people like you are responsible for the huge drop in music quality.
This song came out in the final days of the year and pounded into the ring strong. Nobody does anarchy anthems like ATEEZ. There was a prologue film that showed people waiting for their dark selves to come back, but they're seemingly gone for now. Then in the MV a new lighter group is rising from the ashes while the anarchy flag crumbles and the black hat (in Wooyoung's hand) that all of dark-ATEEZ wear burns (you see them that way in things like HALA HALA, Answer, etc), signifying an end. When San pulls the sphere out of the sky and it crashes down on his head without injuring him, it could be signifying that nothing is big enough to make their spirit crumble and they can rise above anything. Overall, I feel it's an anthem of hope- of perseverance and allowing the light to break through the darkness whilst breaking through the bonds of oppression society has you chained in. Don't stand by silently when you can be a force that is capable of rattling the world.
Loved that you are reacting to Ateez! (Pronounced Ay-Teez/Eh-Teez). I will let smarter Atiny explain the video to you, but Ateez has a lore/story that persists throughout their videos. This video is a very lore heavy. Hala means Hearts Awakened, Live Alive and so Halazia is thought to mean Hearts Awakened, Live Alive, Be the light. I truly believe there is no group like Ateez. They are amazingly talented in all aspects (visuals, vocals, dance). They are hilarious off stage and so fun to watch. Hopefully you can check out a guide to get to know them more as I think that makes the music video experience even better. They have such an amazing discography, I don't even know where to start. But the song that got me into Ateez was Deja Vu so maybe you can add that to your list.
The Hala in Halazia comes from their song Hala Hala (Hearts Alive, Live Awakened) which is one of their most iconic performances and introduces an alternate version of themselves some fans call Halateez. In there lore, Ateez exists in multiple dimensions and Halateez is another version of themselves. Halateez is typically seen in black fedoras, which is the outfit that the scarecrow was wearing in this MV. It isn't confirmed what the -zia means but there's been theories that it could be the zia symbol which is equaivalent to the four cardinal directions, or it could mean light. The fedora-wearing Halateez has also appeared in other Ateez Mvs such as Hala Hala (where they were introduced), Say My Name, Answer, and now Halazia.
I would suggest you to watch from their debut MV til Guerrilla. Coz they getting better and better and better each comeback. If you watch randomly from Guerilla the suddenly Hala Hala jumped to Dejavu, you might not see their improvement. 😊
To understand the visuals of the black hat and scarecrow: first watch "Hala, Hala" (also where the name Halazia comes from/ shows the "dark side"), then "Say My Name" (battling with your inner dark side), then "Answer" (when you finally make peace with your inner demons and accept your dark side). It will make the most sense in this order. Also, the black hat visuals are all throughout these specific videos, which eventually gets burned in "Halazia" as if they are finally burning away this side of themselves.
HALA HALA - Hearts Awakened, Live Alive - Was one of their earlier songs - highly recommend the performance video. This is part of a continuing storyline. Please continue to watch and enjoy!
Ateez is such a phenomenal group! They have quite the extensive lore behind the music which kinda of means you have to watch their stuff in order to make sense of it and even then atiny still can't fully grasp it! hahaha basic concept is that they are pirates they have multiple universes one universe- the one scene in halazia and geurialla is called strickland, a dystopain society where emotion is being oppressed and anything that can trigger it such as music is also banned. Something you will see in the videos is an hourglass called a cromer- used to travel between the dimensions ateez are leading the uprise but we know there are different versions of them, of those being hala hala ateez (see hala hala music video) wear all black, black hat- in this music video- the scarecrow is what hala hala ateez looks like. It's 2 in the morning and this is all my brain can muster right now. If anyone else can formulate a better explanation please do! haha
Yesss more ateez! Love this reaction. I was really blown away by Halazia. Tbh the ateez storyline may be just as complicated as the Bangtan Universe. Good luck with that 😅 Some other songs I think y’all might like is The Real or Fireworks (I’m the One). Also Cyberpunk LIVE performance if you’re up for it. There are only fancams available but it’s worth it 🥵
Ateez!! Like A-teez. Okay so they were literally the last “rookie” group I really got into. Haven’t really followed anyone else since lol. Love them for their high energy, concepts, and performances. Watching them on Kingdom really made me admire them so much more. You guys would love that show. ATEEZ, STRAY KIDS, THE BOYZ, SF9, iKON, and BTOB! But it’ll all have to be on Patreon.
Halazia's album is called Spin Off: From The Witness, so this MV and the lyrics are all from the point of view of an unknown person living in the dystopian world the current Ateez storyline is set in. It's a parallel dimension where emotions and art are banned (it's inspired by various dystopian classics but most visibly by the movie Equilibrium) and that dimension's version of Ateez (called Halateez, from the first title track they were the protagonists of, Hala Hala) disappeared at some point, leaving people without hope until our Ateez arrived in that reality.
oh my goodness i LOVE ateez and i am so excited for this! i know you all love kai and i think you will find lots of similarities between him and san in this group!
J mac literally speechless haha, love it. Yes I realized I’ve been missing out too. They have a whole folklore or “lore” that everyone finds very confusing but if you read up on that, this video will make more sense. If you watch the prologue and teasers will explain a little back story
Loved your reaction and the shhh at the end haha 🤣🤣 ateez will never disappoint ateez have a massive storyline maybe check out the one before this called guerilla But also if you start from there debut pirate King and treasure and then hala hala and say my name The ateez fans are called atiny and your 94% is 100% correct atiny which is ateez and destiny 🙂
tysm for the reaction, halazia is a play on one of their earlier tracks hala hala which stands for hearts awakened live alive and i believe zia means light but you’ll probably have to fact check on that but yeah. as i’m sure other atinys have mentioned they have quite the storyline that extends throughout all their music videos, choreographies and even lyrics which you’ll get to know as you discover more about them, i’d highly suggest watching their mvs from beginning to end at your own pace :)
To really understand ATEEZ and their storyline, you should start at the beginning with Pirate King because there is a lot to follow. Hongjoong, who is the leader, but he goes by captain, has done a video explaining the storyline as well
In my opinion and observation the more I watch the MV analyzing the lyrics, to me I feel that ATEEZ have become one with their alter-egos HALATEEZ or at least taken control of their dark side when they say “no more, keep your soul …. no more, keep control” something along those lines. Basically, I think they’re saying “no matter, stay humble” …. this is not a statement, just sharing my view on it.
YES! ATEEZ!!! More please, the dance practice is out and I hope you can watch it as well. It' soo good. Any MV of theirs is great, but I love "Say my name, Answer, Inception, The real". They also have really great slower songs like "Turbulence", Mist, Sunrise. Would be great to see more of them on your channel!
Glad you're checking out ATEEZ. Here's a website where you can look up Kpop groups to learn to pronounce their group name as well as the names of the individuals and a bit about music, when it was released and how popular it is. Learning some of the basics about a group before reacting to a vid goes a long way. Enjoy your journey with ATEEZ.
I don't know if you guys already have plans to react to this video, but I'm just living for the day you react to Jimin Making Guys Question Their Sexuality For 11 Minutes. The video is hilarious and I just know you guys would love it. :D
