As far as ICKY goes, fuck you guys, I feel violated. As far as You In Me goes, as always these are just my thoughts and interpretation of the MV, hope you enjoy the video! BRB, I need a shower.
I love how the visuals support the message of the song. All these liminal spaces creating a slightly uncomfortable and surreal atmosphere, the strong neon green and red providing unnatural accents. And all the slime and splatter patterns. The visuals alone are somewhere between sexy, weird, intriguing and .. icky. An innuendo in themselves.
I love the take of the visuals being an innuendo of themselves! It also kinda gave me alice in wonderland vibes with the crazy patterns and the walls moving.
"It's so creepy and dark. I fucking love it!" .... "I'm not a psycho." hahahaha. This video got me thinking too. XD The You in Me has the best storyline in all MVs for me.
As a grown ass woman, I love a grown ass song. I've missed sexy concepts in kpop, and this is perfect because its tastefully sexy. You can tell they took into consideration what everyone would be comfortable with, aka Jiwoo in a cat suit in Joker goo and BM with his tiddies out lol
I was like okay yes heavy on the innuendo...okay fine... holding in my giggles... and then BM said the line about just the tip and it broke me. 😂😂 You're right, only KARD could do this.
KARD have exactly two moods: hopeless romantic/tragic breakup and suggestive af. I don't think I need to comment on the lyrical content of Icky, we all know what it's about. Though I have to ask, why are they in the Backrooms?
Honestly, You In Me is the Kill Bill of Kpop 😂 But it's more about a dead relationship and the delusion of not accepting it, they are not letting it go. I think they talked about this... They didn't kill the boys? The boys mostly represent how dead the toxic relationship makes them inside and how they are not present in it. One of the lines say "Why you push me away?" So yeah... When you say they are delusional and living in the past, yes. That's exactly what they are doing.
Yesss totally agree, only KARD can make this kinda concept, their dynamic and "adult nature" is very unique to them. And also love it cause there's a flood of latino inspired kpop song lately (that I've been grooving all day, they're so good too), but KARD came to reclame their latino-kpop throne. Is not only about the rythm, you need the presence and the lyrics too! And amazing read of You in me! everything makes so much sense honestly.
it is true that in the colorful and charming world of kpop it is rare to see productions of this nature, even if there are a certain number of them. say that depending on the generation, the production is more or less dark. the second generation had a lot of quite dark MV's, groups like VIXX, B.AP, INFINITE, Brown eye girls, Cross gene even BTOB had songs that talked about depression, suicide or death. the new generation is above all in the Era attitude, a rebel generation that seeks to be cool and wild.
just saying - VIXX, B.A.P, Cross Gene, & BTOB are 3rd gen. 2nd gen however had quite a lot of colorful MVs. 3rd gen was when groups began being more open about dark subjects in their comebacks.
@@thekeytomyheart_ - nop they're 2nd gen but you can call them cross gen i'am korean and for you're knowledge 2nd gen start around 2004 /2005 and finish around 2012/2013 . so the 3rd gen start officialy in end 2012 but really start in 2014 because before that most of the active groups are still from the 2nd gen the phase between 2 generation take time one year in general 2 years sometimes . - multiple groups can be call cross gen if they start around these years . and they all debut in 2012 or even before . these day's we still got many groups crossing gen and still in activity like SNSD ,SUPER JUNIOR ,BOA etc... . - if you want the 3rd gen group really start with groups like BTS / RED VELVET or LABOUM . because all very first 3rd gen group who's debut end 2012 or 2013 are pretty much got disbanded or not very memorable and the most noticable groups and the real war start in 2014 /3015 with groups like GFRIEND /RED VELVET /TWICE .
@@fabricemaire4433 yeah I remember a HUGE influx of debuting groups in between 2013 and 2014 and a LOT of those groups disbanded within the year. 3rd gen groups that debut in the beginning didn’t have any longevity which is I guess why fans are blurring the different gens. But it was definitely the 2nd Gen of idol that gave 0 f*cks (a lot of the music had innuendos and female and male idols were free to interact and even hold special stages and collaborate like SNSD and 2PM or WonderGirls and Big Bang), while 4th Gen is just out here trying to survive and not get cancelled just by breathing.
@@Lauren-zx3gx I think every generation has had these good and bad sides. the 4th generation benefits from the global impact that certain 3rd gen groups like BTS or blackpink had. and now have global visibility are able to sell millions of albums in less than a year of career and achieve global rankings such as billboards. SNSD or SUPER JUNIOR were the top groups of my childhood, they had incredible popularity and dominated their category for a decade. yet groups like AEPSA or IVE have sold more albums in 1 year than these artists in 5 or 6 years. and it is not because SNSD or SUPER JUNIOR was less popular they did not benefit from the same advantages. The views on You Tube didn't matter and the only thing that mattered was selling albums in Korea or Japan and winning Daesang and end of the year awards. whereas nowadays bands want grammy awards and sell albums all over the world. each generation has paved the way for future generations. SNSD and SUPER JUNIOR did better than S.E.S and H.O.T. Blackpink and BTS did better than SNSD and SUPER JUNIOR. and IVE/LESSERAFIM/NEW JEANS or STRAY KIDS/SEVENTEEN etc... will do better than Blackpink and BTS.
I thought of Poison Ivy because of all the green and how she took him over. Green not only means sick but also fertility and nature. But can also represent natural decay. I liked how they said icky in a way that was almost like leaving the st off of sticky.
Always the best reaction thank you You in Me and Gunshot are my favs MV from them, ICKY is such an incredible song, honestly not my favourite but it grows in me, and the sound is so good and well executed, and yeah the transition at the beginning is so beautiful
I have loved Kard since they debuted. SNSD, Big Bang, Kard are truly my favorites of all time! Finally saw Kard in July 2023,fantastic on stage, adorable off stage. I may be one of oldest kpop fans ever, i am in wheelchair and my daughter took me to concert. Met them after, just kids, so sweet. Ty for this! ❤
Man, I really love your analysis with these videos! You explain very well what I would miss at most times (which is funny because this mv is pretty obvious lmao) Eitherway, I appreciate and won't mind long form videos like these honestly. Great job ❤
i LOVE how this isn't even the most explicitly suggestive matthew's verse! like we literally have "bad intentions" and "put it on ya" 😭 also completely lost it on your reaction to "tip" bit (very me when i saw it for the first time)
Trust me I've seen many different reactions to this & I have to say yours by far is the most funniest one I've watched, lol. I love & really enjoy your reactions. Always puts me in a good mood to see your video pop up on my front page. Thanks for checking so many different artist out.
Kard literally said Hey, We Are Some Grown Ass Adults they may not have a lot of knetz attention but they have WorldWide Attention !!! And We Are Loving It!!!!!! Kard have and Always were my FAVE❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hey! Super late to the video, loved your reaction as always. For Icky, they said in a recent interview with Eric Nam that the word "icky" in Korean means moss, so having green all over thw video and Jiwoo's look being reminiscent of Poison Ivy makes complete sense. For "You in Me", I'm so glad you liked that video. When I watched for the first time as I was starting to check out their music, it gave me strong Twin Peaks vibes because I wss in the middle of watching that show for the first time. And also, as a huge horror fan I really appreciated the dark elements they wove into the story of the music video. Your reactions and analysis are always super entertaining and informative, thanks for being so willing to discover new artists.
Also, You & Me is amazing. If you like dark concepts, Ash Island dropped Black Roses mv today which reminded me of the classic horror novel “The Collector” which is in sharp contrast to the other mv he dropped 2 weeks ago for this album.
I would love to see the age stats of KARD's viewership, because KARD has been grown since debut 😂 and everyone I've ever seen engage with KARD content has known what's up, lol. They've always engaged with adult topics, but this comeback in particular is definitely more heavy-handed than in the past. The whole mini-album is on this wave; they literally have a song called 'Fxxk You' and they say it with their full chest throughout the song. Love this for them and that their company is letting them have this freedom.
About the name of the hotel in Spanish. “Apego” is used when you have a special feeling/ connection with someone or something. It’s not just to be attached, it involved deeper feeling for someone or something. For example: if you say that you have “ apego” for this plant… it’s because beyond the plant itself, there is a story that make you feel something special for it.
Hi I just want to say that I absolutely love your reaction videos. Thank you so much for doing these reaction videos. Please keep them coming because I really enjoy them. Out of all the kpop reaction videos that you have done which ones are your favorite and why?
Bro it's the fucking Backrooms. Goddamn I have to assume it's BM influence, he is one cultured man. If you know, you know. Shout-out to the nerds out there, it ain't just for your typical mainstream normies
Gurl, Everyone in KARD is beautiful!... But I especially don't need Sephie throwing his head back and really feeling it! 😳22:50... As a J. Sephie bias...HOW DARE HE! 😏😒😏... Also...These problematic bitches out here trying me AND I APPROVE! 😆😉...It's freezing today, but I'm hot! 🥵 😂... P.S...We already know BOTH songs are 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥... And yes, You In Me is totally a metaphor for a relationship that has died and cannot be revived no matter how hard they try...The girls try and keep the dream alive, but the boys feel dead inside and majorly disconnected... Also, if you think about it...the girls are disconnected as well and in another sense are just going through the motions of a relationship and might well be fully aware the boys have emotionally clocked out of the relationship, but all the girls know at that point is how to be in a relationship and are scared to be left alone...ENMESHMENT! (from both sides of the relationship)
...if You in Me is dark and psychotic...what is VIXX's 'Voodoo Doll'😂 IF you like dark and psychotic concepts 'Voodoo Doll' by VIXX will be perfectly down your alley👍
curious to see what the translation of their lyrics are in korean, because like it is possible that more of their younger fans are korean?? it's not explicit if you don't understand it, technically...
2:00 When Spanish native speaker, known KARD since Predebut... and just now I realize spanish word there lmao I need to pay more attention to the text in MVs xD
The only thing that make me feel sad about KARD's latest comebacks is that the structure of songs is girls are singing all the time and guys have only one rap section for each of them. But overall disgustingly good or icky comeback
I'm missing you so hard... and seeing you react to my dearest Kard was delicious! I'm just sorry for laughing at your reaction to the uv light-reactive ink... cuz I did... lol... the two songs and mvs are amazing, and Icky hasn't left my brain since the 23rd, well, this quartet lives in my mind rent free... they are incredibly beautiful and sexy and the type of music they have chosen to make fits them like a glove. Icky and dirty, or toxic and zombieish, I just love them. And love you and your so natural way of reacting, you know that. Love and kisses from your Brazilian fanfriend, take care!
20:14 😂😂😂 les dejo el xq de su reacción BM "Esto esta apunto de ponerse peligroso, nuestras manos se ponen traviesas Mueves tus caderas hacia mi, las atrapo como un frisbee El aroma de las feromonas se extiende por todo el lugar, la situación podría ponerse pegajosa... icky icky Te tego exitada dices q quieres probar mas, no estoy hablando de comida Dale mami, vuelvete loca Nuestros cuerpos se calientan, voy a darte lo que estabas deseando"😅
As a latina i need to say that where i live, the age and the song have no relation hahahaha i grew up with worst than that sooooo. I just loved the song so much. They are huge here in South America so I think a lot of us are okay with those lyrics and all. I really enjoyed your reaction 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for showing some love and support to ma babies.
If you want dark kpop, there is nothing darker than Sunny Hill's Pray in the entire industry from start to present day (forget Voodoo Doll, forget BEG---NOTHING). It's actually mildly traumatic.
Have you had the chance to check out the show Good Girl at all? Jiwoo did a performance with several other amazing idols of a song called Witch that i think you would enjoy!
I was wondering if you can do another NCT song? Such as a WAYV song or one with all members? WAYV came back recently with Phantom which is amazing. There's also black on black, beautiful, and resonance for songs with all members that are really good!!
