Yesss Aaron, you are seeing what most people don’t want to see. A group from a small company with a lot of talent, who deserve to be praise for everyone, with so perfect voices, even their rapper can sing perfectly good. They need more people who support real talent, they deserve their first win.
Dreamcatcher is so underrated in other asian countries. Such as my country - Vietnam. Most of Kpop fans here don't care much about other groups, they only stan really popular groups (i don't want to mention their name in case of misunderstanding). Although dreamcatcher has talent and their music videos are stunning, their songs are amazing, their visuals are amazing, etc.
DREAMCATCHER is so freaking underrated it’s not even funny. They are in my top 5 KPOP group that I listen to consistently. Biggest crackheads with great vocals. I can’t speak enough how good they are. I can say they are big here in America. We luv our metal...
The killing part was by Handong, who currently falls 5th in line of their vocal line up (if you can believe it). Unlike other groups, DC plays their cards by strength; whoever fits the line the best not by popularity or other influences. btw, handong has a beautiful voice which is one of the reasons she gets more parts in Bsides than the title tracks; titles are more heavy as you've noticed. Déjà vu was a collaboration w/ a online Game (Kings Raid). Lot of talk about the plot, but like every story they all revert back to classic literature like Macbeth, betrayal for the throne. Yoohyun kills her friend Jiu and gets rid of the others (exiled, imprisoned, and killed as illustrated at the start of the M/V). While she finds herself alone on the throne, she's having illusions/flashbacks like Macbeth, which has been interpreted as "deja-vu" is my guess… However, the lyrics follows the story line of Kings Raid (oh man, that's another saga) which is why ppl get confused trying to match the lyrics w/ the M/V.
5th in line? I imagine that puts Siyeon, Yoohyeon, JiU and SuA above her, but I'm wondering what metric you're using. I've certainly never heard of any "official ranking" for where the members fall in any given category; aside from the usual main and lead titles, DC don't really roll like that...
@@Brickerbrack Agree, it was more w/ regards to line distribution over the years. as i said, DC rolls w/ their strength and are not boxed in w/ any predetermined role...
i think they give the lines to the one that sounds good in that part they dont care about how many lines they get they want their song to sound beautiful
FIRST TIME LISTENING TO IT and I WAS SO SHOCKED AND CAPTIVATED WITH THEIR VOICES I SHOUDL CHECKED THEM OUT 😳😳 why are they so underrated??? tell me why??
There are so many reasons: Its a small company, their music is mixed with rock and metal elements (that is not popular in Korea), and because they usually have "intense" songs (people prefer light and catchy music). At this point they didn't have a win. This song in particular had lost last year under Everglow (there were some strange things with numbers that time, but it was not Everglow's fault). We are waiting their next comeback, maybe things are diferent (sorry if I made mistakes, english is not my first language).
it is my first time to see aaron that being shocked , so much talk and being wrecked.. 😂 btw this is my first time to hear and watch this song .. dreamcatcher is newly group to me.. sorry for my bad english.. i think i should stan them
thank you guys.. recently i search their deja vu live stage so i can see their stage presence and choreo at the same time . i was amazed 😍😍😍 so i search again and i found their "scream" and its like metal rock or sumthing pls correct me if im wrong . thats so very catchy before i wrote/type my comment here , someone suggested on me other videos of them to try "breaking out" 😍😍 i will stan them from now on. and add their songs to my playlist 🥰
@@renzylovesyou try basically their whole discography, including bsides, and watch some on crack videos, those are always helpful to get into a group :)
*BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE MV AND CONCEPT* So this video is about a powerful Queen who rules with her 6 friends but then one of them starts to greed for power. The Queen spares their life and throws the the sword away but the traitor stabs the Queen in the back. The ending of the music video shows how the traitor gains power but lost all her comrades. This is just a rough description and the MV has a lot more depth to it. If you're really interested I'd suggest watching the explanation to it by Bookish Theories.

I think it would make more sense, they being sisters, since the oldest (JiU) would obviously take the throne, only one of the sisters (Yoohyeon) who admired the throne ended up sitting on it and being dominated by him and wanting him completely for her. But somehow, JiU knew and decided to face his younger sister (Yoohyeon) who pretended to be innocent all the time, making JiU have a little fight (in the case of the scene where some things on the castle roof are falling), but soon JiU let Yoohyeon go, after all she hadn't done anything yet. Yoohyeon somehow managed to "kill" JiU after that (I imagine it was poisoning, but anyway JiU just fell unconscious, looking dead, since in the end she ended up waking up to stop her younger sister) So Yoohyeon eliminated the sisters, as she was the third youngest of the 7 sisters to inherit the throne. As SuA would inherit the throne after JiU's death, she ended up arguing and totally disagreeing with the younger sister's ideas and decisions (Yoohyeon), SuA then decided to abandon her life as heir and left the castle forever. After SuA, it was Siyeon, who burned to death in the room where they set fire. Later, Handong was charged with the death of his older sister (Siyeon) and was imprisoned in the dungeon forever. And finally Yoohyeon decided to eliminate her two younger sisters, Dami was trapped in a room that only had mirrors, where she would live her whole life with her own reflection and Gahyeon was placed in a forest from which she would never find a way out. Finally, JiU tried to fight Yoohyeon, only soon after, tired of everything, she finally gave up on the fight (what I believe is JiU believed that Yoohyeon finally had given up on everything) but then Yoohyeon stabbed JiU on her back while she was leaving. Finally Yoohyeon got what she wanted, but she was left alone and consumed by evil. Edit: I'm not good at English, so I'm sorry for any mistakes.
So, about the lyrics - in a interview, Dreamcatcher said the meaning of the song is about sacrifing all you have for a condemned dream and never giving up on it despite the inevitable failure, each try being your new Deja Vu. It's about confronting this ideia and trying to prevail over it. According to JiU: "It gave us the challenge to try and express the image of the confusion of dreams within dreams and having a goal that you can’t give up on, no matter how you are interrogated." This ties to the lore of the game this song was made for King's Raid, where the main character is corrupted by a dark force and his love interest decides to join him on the dark side as to not leave him alone, even if she knows the chance he and she turn good again is minimun. When I first read the lyrics, my interpretation was that the song was about an abusive relantionship the singer can't get out, and each cycle is a "Deja Vu". I guess this is what art is all about, each person will find their meaning of the song in the middle of the clash bewtween confusion and hope the song is thematically expressing.
Finally DREAMCATCHER🤩 they are hidden gem in kpop that why mostly people didn't find them yet and always go for popular gem but I hope SOON they find it 🤗💕
I just checked this reaction coz I got curious and I've heard the déja vu titled song from some other boy grp.......damn....this grp is fkin Amazing idk why I've been sleeping on them.
This song is actually a collaboration with a mobile game King's Raid. The song's theme was made according to the game's story! There's another upcoming Dreamcatcher game collab and the title is R.o.S.E. Blue! Check it out!
lol would have been shocked if you got the meaning of the song. you kind of have to know a bit of dreamcatcher's background to get all the details but at its surface deja vu is representing the cycle of life and how the best and worse parts of it repeats endlessly.
@@Kinben69 yes it is a stand alone mv but it uses references from their lore. I made a short video explaining it for those interested. most of their mvs and lyrics need to be separated. the mvs tell one story and the lyrics are 'their' story. the theme in many of their lyrics repeat in a lot of songs.
5:30 "Whoever's singing here, I think I like her voice the most." That's our leader JiU; the blonde with the sword in this video. 6:10 "Wow, her voice is so beautiful as well..." Dami... Dreamcatcher's main rapper. ;)
Aaron you pointed out something really important about this song, those classical instrument and build up, i mean you can't find any other song going like this in Kpop, just too beautiful. And again...... (a) metalhead (b) listen to Kpop (c) found Dreamcatcher (a) + (b) + (c) = InSomnia
Omg I'm so glad to see a reactor who loves this song as much as I do... Didn't think it would be Aaron! I hope you continue down the Dreamcatcher rabbit hole
I love this song so much the instruments are beautiful and so is the video and the story behind it their vocals are amazing and Handong part " so now holding this pain " is fucking iconic 😭
The best female vocalists in Kpop. Dami is the best female rapper and also has a beautiful singing voice. All the girls can take any role in a girl group; rapper, main vocalist, lead vocalist, lead dancer, main dancer. They are utterly unique and have had to struggle against the KPop industry which prefers uniform cookie cutter groups and has a disdain for rock music. Also, besides being beautiful, as you watch their behind the scenes vids, you will see they are total crackheads and are as delightful to watch as Twice.
Is dreamcatcher a 2nd gen group??? Because then she could really be one of the best vocalist but if it’s 3gen then sry Wendy has that spot :( followed by yuju
@@jksjksjksjks they debuted in 2017 with Chase me and a pre-debut or smth song called smth with High (im a baby insomnia ok eksjks) sooo i think they're 3rd gen
@@CutleryWonder nah, she has excellent rapping skills but you do know that moonbyul, L.E and Jessi,just to name a few other excellent female rappers, exist right? Yes i get it with the 'she writes her own raps, produces and writes her groups songs and has an incredible flow' and all that shit (I'm sort of a Neverland so this aint a hate comment) but so do other female rappers so no jeon soyeon isn't the best, she's one of the best (((;
DREAMCATCHER had amazing vocal, not only one best, but all of them had amazing vocal. And Dami's rap just... OW! So good and catchy. Their music so unique, that's make them so different from others group.
oMG OF COURSE THAT'S A MASTERPIECE, YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO "JAZZ BAR" TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HIS AMAZING VOCALS AND "RED SUN" THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST BIGGEST BOP BY THEM. I LOVE IT!
Please react more of Dreamcatcher 🥺 every song is a master piece (they do different genres in their b-sides and all of them are SO GREAT) My playlist is literally almost all their albums on loop everyday :3
Thank you so much for your reaction, I really really enjoyed. Deja vu is also my favorite song by dreamcatcher, its just so so so good! I hope you can keep reacting to them, I really loved it.
For a small-average company, DC really puts out one of the best productions out there, both in visuals and in the overall mix and composition of the song. Can you believe only 2 guys produced this?? Each MV is designed to make you feel something. And they deliver. Every time.
I think its pretty clear, yoohyeon imagines her friends and jiu as plotting against her, then end up backstabbing jiu and destroying the beautiful palace they had, in the end sitting on a throne alone, with just a big hole instead of a palace. jiu is shown pretty much dead, turning into butterflies. yoohyeon is always the problem child in their videos lol.
The beginning of the video is the false memory. Yoohyeon, the one with grey/blue hair, sees herself as the victim of a cruel queen, JiU (with blonde hair), and she has no choice but to kill her and take the thrown. In her delusion she believes herself to be a hero in her friends eyes, but that delusion begins to breakdown at JiU's funeral as they morn the Queen they loved. One by one they leave her and she has no choice but to face reality. It was her lust for power that drove her to attack JiU, and when JiU showed her mercy, she used it to stab her in the back. At this realization, that she has killed her best friend and/or lover, Yoohyeon goes berserk, and possibly kills some of the other members, leaving the thrown room in shambles and only the ghost of JiU remaining by her side.
You should use the Mv from Dreamcatcher or Happyentertainment channel for subtitle. The mv is about the story of a game King's Raid. And yess thank you for giving them more attention 😁 Piri next?
I've waited so much for this video ♥️♥️. Dreamcatcher is one of the most talented girlgroup of kpop,if you want to be amazed,watch "full moon live stage" you can hear their amazing live vocals
I think this can be interpreted in different ways. On the surface, Yoohyeon (blue hair) in her lust for power, betrays her comrades, returns JiU's mercy with murder, unleashes chaos, and finally sits alone on a desolate throne tormented by memories and regrets.
i am so happy that Aaron is enjoying our girls 💜 DREAMCATCHER 's music and vocals are so amazing my fav gg since their begining and they're huge here in Europe 💜
I think the song is a song of grievance of how we go on in life achieving our dreams then feeling empty with the loss of loved ones we have abandoned. This loss strikes grief to us blaming ourselves leaving endless pain with our only escapes are our delusions where our loved ones are with us and alive, our Deja Vu.
This video is an artistic masterpiece. The song is as well, tbh. The visuals are just beautiful. I don't know what's going on, but somehow I want to know more.
1. Love and appreciates all your DC reactions thus far 🤘 would like to shout out to Patricia too, woot! 🤜🤛 2. And so it came to pass, "Dreamcatcher is like a black hole, once you're in it, you can't get out." - Jiu 🐰 3. Siyeon 🐺 once explains Deja Vu is a song about a promise that must be kept no matter what it takes. How I'd like to intepret the MV ; YH believes JU attempted to usurp her when in reality it was YH justification to slay and overthrown JU, then cast out her sisters. It's two different world now. The fall from grace. Bridge burned. In the end, amongst the ruins, YH is now alone.
