ITZY Songwriters REACT to ITZY "CAKE" 

The writers of this are stayc's writers so I really thought it sounded very similar to Teddy bear by stayc. Especially the structure and chorus

the cookie isnt actually "from" Squid Games, it's a traditional kids game called "Dalgona" that is usually sold in carts to kids in SK. It as popularized in the west because of the show though, so it's a common misconception.

Whoa... you two worked on MiTM? I've been telling everyone how MiTM was a level up that all of KPop had to rise to. Cool! ITZY is pure stage presence. Tell me what you think of "Kill Shot".

Girlls you guys should make another bops for Itzy caused "Mafia In The Morning" is THAT song!

it’s amazing how u guys knew the mv message right away without seeing the lyrics, truly professionals❤❤

What I think about Cake: I love the MV, the visual of the MV is simple yet it is beautiful and fresh, which is fit with their meaningful lyrics. I love the chorus and bridge, it is so heavenly and gorgeous and Itzy nails this. Ok, so to the meaning behind the scenes: First, “Cake”, which Itzy mentioned in their Kill My Dout showcase, the upbeat and spirited song "Cake" stresses the value of being present at the moment, accepting one's uniqueness, and tackling difficulties head-on. In the song, the word "cake" is used frequently as a metaphor for the reminder: just as enjoying a slice of cake is a simple pleasure, so too should we tackle life's issues without overthinking them or letting them bring us down. What Itzy want to spread a message through"CAKE" is their empowerment and self-assurance through the song's lyrics. They stress the need of making the most of each day and avoiding unnecessary complications. They claim that when issues are tackled with the proper perspective, they can be easily conquered by comparing life's trials to a piece of cake. ITZY's song "CAKE" highlights the value of being true to oneself, making the most of the present moment, and facing challenges head-on without creating needless complications. The metaphor of a cake, which represents the notion of savoring each bite of life and accepting things as they come, serves as the song's central metaphor. The song conveys a vital message: while life is full of uncertainties, focusing on the present moment is more gratifying than getting caught up in worries about what could happen next. One might live a more fulfilling life by welcoming each day and taking on obstacles with a calm, confident attitude. Secondly, the black and yellow people that you see in the MV are represented by people on the hate train who throw hate comments at Itzy for no reason (you can see that they shoot bullets at Itzy) just because of one single comeback that they don’t like and say to my girls that they are flopping a.k.a the black people and the yellow person which is us, Midzy, as you can see at the beginning of the video, the yellow person always protect Itzy, at the first scene you can see that a yellow person who holding an umbrella for Lia and look at Lia all the times just to make sure that she is safe from the chaos and at the last scene you can see the yellow person is vibing with Itzy, they are dancing and smiling with Itzy. Throughout times Midzy will always protect, share and support Itzy at any cost. Love you girls, and hope Itzy can have a successful comeback of course hope Itzy is always safe, confident and lovely, smiling with their effort of what they are contributing and yeah hope all Midzy that are listening to this song stay safe, and healthy and support our girls. And by the way, you can look at KPOPOFFICIAL.COM to see their analysis of lyrics. Love your reaction to Itzy. Bye

Omgg such an in-depth and insightful reaction!!!! Thank you to you two for making this wonderful video!!! ❤❤

4:02 -> I feel the same way. Some of my most favorite kpop songs I didn't like at all on the first listen.

1:36 12:33 Lia falls because Yuna accidentally push that thing

I don’t know why but this is my favorite song lol 🍾🍾

omgg i’ve seen you guys in instagram and shorts about itzy concerts and mitm creators❤️❤️ i love this song it brings back their Dalla Dalla concept

Love how you analyze the song and discuss the high notes and low notes. All real and constructive i enjoy your videos!

Ah, the focus on more brighter music to lift the spirits makes so much cultural sense in context of the pandemic. My personal taste still wishes we could have gotten "Kill Shot" as the title track, it definitely matches the "Kill My Doubt" concept photos more

The MV is refreshing and cool at the same time. The more I listen to the song, the more i like it and I also like the bside songs of the album. This album was really good but crazy inlove is still my fav album from itzy. ps. If i will produce a music for itzy it would be like spice girls, britney spears, avril lavigne, justin beiber and one direction kind type of songs, sound and music. I really love to give my songs that I wrote for itzy. They are my fav kpop group.

1:52 Is the Cupcakke-? HAHAH no waay ALINA KNOWS THE CUPCAKKE REMIXES OMGGG

1:57 to 2:02 is so funny yet relatable. Loved the reaction though ❤

This song feels sooooo LYRE Coated ❤

Me - watching video The left girl - ohh wait that is from squid game Me - 💀💀

KARD - CAKE , is epic

Your reactions stand out because of your work in the industry so keep it up! And way to go for KCon LA 2023!

ITZY🔛🔝

The Lia is giving Mr Garam fearless teaser😭

Ellie's singing voice is so good! I'm a fan of Lyre!

It's my favorite song

At first, I struggled to hear the first verse of Lia too, but as the days passed when I listened to the song more, when all the other parts could be support for that part of Lia, I think it's ok to keep it up And the second part that I like is the second ver of RyuuJin, so I think that could be some mismatch from the producer when not balancing two starting points of each ver Anyway, this is give me summer energy and that's I need in this summer, beside their song called None of My Bussiness

Wow love the mv

loveeee love loveee these reaction videos + please can you react to their album 😍😍😍

Love it and love you all❤

Amazing video girls! Also I’m early!!!!!! 🎉

Queens!

Cake atee lol ❤️

I agree with everything

U guys are gorgeously beautiful ❤❤

Black Eyed Pilseung wrote and produced cake

They literally went back to the basics of kpop. Back when groups weren't trying to make it big in the US. It's almost EXID like with the brass, the repetitive chorus, the switch ups. A lot of the people mad at the song are fairly new to kpop whereas the ones that love it have been around for a bit longer or are fans of older kpop groups. Either way, i fkn love the song.

PLSS RELEASE ENGLISH VERSION OF "BEAUTIFUL NIGHT" YOU WRITTEN FOR EUNBI!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THAT 2000s rock music vibes

Yeyyyy🎉

ITZY 예지 리아 류진 채령 유나 노래 짱 춤짱 마음이 예쁜 화이팅 사랑해요 짱 행복하세요 케이크 ❤🥰😍😘🥳💝💘💘💘💘💘

Hello, LYRE, I tried to get in touch with you to send some lyrics or even song compositions, but without success, where exactly can I contact you?

❤

HIIII

I’d love it if you guys could react to Jung Kook ‘Seven.’ A definite summer bop!

Would you react to kep1er next comeback in september?

Ok. Look. You worked on Mafia?? QWEENS. That’s amazing!!

Hey Lyre, been a huge fan of ya'll songs and video reaction. By any chance do you guys take request for a video reaction for Malaysian Girl Group "Dolla". They've been releasing hits like "Look at This" and "Bad" and new mv coming soon "Damelo". Would love to see your reaction to their music. ❤

These girl wrote my fav ITZY'S TITLE TRACK OF ALL TIME THERE SO TALENTED I ALSO WROTE SOME SONGS THEY SEEMS WEIRD BCZ I'M JUST 13 ❤

i feel like they know the wonyoung fall meme lol

Slayy lyreee

ITZY is a group that has not had a lead in JYP...Twice has overshadowed ITZY...and now NMIXX is overshadowing ITZY... This song is just too bland to stand out comparing to the 5th gen stuff. JYP is now in a dilemma. Add investment to ITZY a 4.5 gen that has a very small market share or NMIXX who has an open menu to lead KPOP. I've been watching A2K and the potential is off the charts with Melissa. I mean we a re looking at the voice of a new generation here. All I saw in JYP's eyes are $$$$$. The same look he had when he discovered Lily.JYP the pied piper of KPOP. IMO ITZY is near the end . Twice is in retirement and a well deserved one. New Jeans is leading everyone and that train is just leaving the station on a journey that will conquer the world comparatively the same but, way bigger than GG.

You also know the Wonyoung meme 😂😂😂😂😂

actually, what you guys thought was the pre-chorus was the chorus, the cake cake cake cake cake part was the refrain.

Please don't stop in the middle and look at it all the time and say it again.

Dreamcatcher MAISON VISION BONVOYAGE 😱 ITZY More video 👎😤🤬
