“NewJeans Ditto Will Change K-pop Forever” And it did.

tbh new jeans is under an incredible production team, not just the girls are talented, but the whole production team is amazing. It's definitely new generation of kpop. Idol might be a culture, but when music turns into form of art, they aren't just idol, they are artists

lemme just get this out. i cried while watching this video of yours. and i didn't even notice i was crying until it turned into uncontrollable wailing. all songs and music videos like this one are art and its meanings really depend on the audience's views, beliefs, and experiences but your explanation of the ditto mv just hit me so damn hard i'm literally crying my heart out in the bathroom as i'm typing this out. i used to be super into kpop when i was in high school. back when snsd and 2ne1 were at the top of the kpop food chain. it made me so happy learning songs, practicing choreos, watching reality kpop. all that changed when i got into college where life and adulting pressure started. even more when i got pregnant, got married, had a baby. and although my husband and baby are both lovely, having a baby at 23 made me HAVE TO mature even faster than women my age - like my youth was taken away from me. maybe that's why i felt so emotional when i got to attend a kpop concert weeks ago and why i still couldn't get over it until now. for a brief couple of days, i feel like i'm 13 again - singing, dancing, cheering my heart out. i felt like i was young again anyway i could never listen to ditto the same way ever again

Ditto is truly a sophisticated and avant garde kpop track. Theres so much substance to it in sound and concept. Its like watching an A list blockbuster flick and then stumbling into a film festival the next day. It felt like a crazy A24 picture! The people at Hybe are really on to something and I hope they explore more concepts and creative direction like this more! Its truly a great signature.

Currently, Ditto of New Jeans is maintaining the No. 1 spot on the Korean charts for 28 days. 2nd and 3rd place are also New Jeans' OMG and Hypeboy! These girls are ruling the K-pop market.

It will be really interesting to see how they develop their sound and visual identity as the girls get older. As the girl crush/boss bitch concept kind of dominated kpop in last several years and is still going strong, it's awesome that this kind of concept has so much success. It's kinda silly that this authenticity is sold by a corporation, but that IS the most gen z thing about it actually.

Honestly, ditto is such an excellent way of portraying idol-fan relationship. Grew up listening to this boy group as a teen and when I turned adult, left it and started focusing on my surrounding practically my life. So ditto makes me feel idk so many emotions.

Small detail: NewJeans calls their fans “bunnies.” The protagonist’s name is Byun Hee Soo, which sounds like “Bunny Soo.”

I remember when I first saw a NewJeans MV I was like wait, is this a kpop group? Will they be performing at music shows? That's how unique they are. NewJeans is their own genre!!

normalize liking NewJeans not only because of their visuals, but because they are talented, amazing, beautiful, precious peoples. words cannot describe how amazing they are

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but Ban Heesoo (bunnies - fandom name- M/V protagonist) has her own RU-vid channel. She old school uploaded the raw video files you saw in the 00s RU-vid. She’s been uploading since ditto came out, the fans found it by themselves, started at 0 subs. By far the best marketed K-pop group going right now . youtube.com/@banheesoo

17:59 "She remembers all the good times that she had when she was younger, even though she's moved past it, she can look back on the memories with fondness [...] That's just the idol-fan relationship." I was very moved from that moment on because I can only agree with your reasoning. I have been a kpop fan for years (and still am), devoted to BTS and Mamamoo in particular, attached to this very special musical and visual atmosphere of Kpop. I shared this passion with my older sister at one time. Then two years ago, she met someone and I felt her gradually detach from our common passion. At first I didn't understand, I was confused, I felt alone and left out because she didn't have the same passion when we talked about it, she wasn't as involved as before. Eventually I came to terms with it. Then a year ago, I met someone. As the weeks went by, I also saw myself moving away from Kpop, but most of all I left behind BTS and Mamamoo. I understood that it was inevitable. I was having moments of nostalgia, of blur, of sadness, thinking of it. They had such an important place for me. They shaped a part of me as I became a woman. But I just couldn't give them as much importance as before. Finally, looking back, I said the exact same thing to myself : "Lots of time when you get older, you grow out of Kpop. That's just the reality of it. But even when you're older, you can always go back, you can always go watch some of those old nostalgic groups that you've watched and you can remember all the good memories. You can be like : I liked these guys."

The last 20 seconds of this video of you explaining not just the MV, or New Jeans or Bunnies but the entire relationship between kpop idols and their fandom was so profound and amazing. I love it! Thank you.

that's the purpose of the kpop to discuss on real issues and new jeans just cross the expectations already. This mv is a masterpiece

To me ditto is beautiful and devastating at the same time both as a kpop fan and a person that has struggled with maladaptive daydreaming all my life

Gotta say, I love the ending of this video. I got into K-pop much later in my life than most people, so I look at it through a different lens. It's so easy to get cinical about it all, and there are plenty of legitimate reasons to dislike so much of what fandom is, but this warms my cold heart. I almost cried.

They literally slayed every second of the m/v ✨

Wow, I shed some tears in the end. How Jordan walked the audiences through the storytelling of the MVs makes me understand the message more now, hence the tears. Another great reaction video.

Dude, this is not a K-Pop music video. It's a short film--art. Thank you for introducing me to this MV. It's the first time I've seen it and I'm glad I watched it on your channel.

This MV reminds me of how I never had anyone in my life that shared my interest of kpop or dancing and how I've always had to do it alone in my room. It was very lonely and I cry thinking about it. Now I'm almost 30 and feel like i wasted a passion and childhood with no memories to show for it. There are no classes near me to take and posting on social media will make ppl think " A 30yr old dancing to teen kpop music seems too lame to do now" idk..😔 anyway great video.

I hope more people can appreciate newjeans not only for being talented, having amazing visuals. But their concept is so meaningfull!

I know it seems like NewJeans is an outlier that will change the direction of Kpop, but I really feel like they are the beginning of an anomaly, like lightning in a bottle. Everything in their production are done with care and authenticity. All the members have great skills and visually pleasing. I seriously think there won’t be a group like them in the future. As time goes on and “traditional” kpop gets recycled and forgotten, I truly think they’ll last a very long time and make more beautiful music as they grow older. They’re the only ones I feel like I’m watching something special when they release music. I hope they get all the success

The message this song and MV conveys is very strong and I could tell what the storyline was the very first time I saw it. I am a teenager, slowly growing into adulthood as I've let go of everything I treasured just because I think it's childish to be still doing that. We have different thoughts like " should I still be liking this? " but once again when we turn back to look at everything we used to do. It was what comforted us the most. We didn't know about the struggles of being an adult and when we finally grew into that phase of life. We want to be younger again, we want to experience that younger phase again but we can't. We can only look back at the painful yet happy memories. Painful because we can't experience it again..

Never heard the coming of age perspective. I almost cried at the end because things will never be as they used to. I miss the times I spent with friends during my school years

Y'know the way I discovered this song was by just watching the performance version. I had no idea about the deep, and saddening meaning of it. Soon after, I watched the mv, and ended up crying. I still cry when watching it, this mv gets me each time. (I'm wailing right now)

New jeans are a breathe of fresh air, really. Last year comeback's and releases were just loud music and then New Jeans came with the refreshing, nostalgic, Y2k performance/music. They also incorporate dance moves which were popular in the early 2000s in k-pop. The videos were all so present well

Even with ‘OMG’ by newjeans it portrays a similar message of idols “forgetting about themselves.” Ditto talks about the K-pop fans sides while OMG talks about the idols side. Omg is basically saying “hey! When you give idols expectations they have to live up to it and when they do, they lose sight of who they actually are.” It’s like a call out to K-pop fans. You can watch it, you can listen to it, you can have fun with it. But in the end, idols will suffer more than you could imagine.

Damn you really got me with that last part. I’ve liked kpop since i was 11, and I’m 27 now. Going back and watching old videos takes me back to my younger, more innocent days. I look back with fondness and appreciation for these groups that brought me happiness in some hard times in my childhood/adolescence. And even now, just looking a few years back to pre-covid, there’s a similar feeling. It’s crazy to have gone through that twice. And now I’m crying 😭

It's so funny because NewJeans throws me back to when kpop was fun, when it really had something to tell, not just beauty shots and selling fashion brands. They also remind me so much of f(x).... The way they were conceptual yet "pop"... especially in their Pink Tape era (the album that really changed a lot of how kpop turned out to be). I really root for NJ because they have the talent to back up so much production and make it seem effortless. In a way, they are a breath of fresh air and authenticity in a genre that became so generic and commercialized.

in my opinion these concept and ideas really make them stand out. i used to doubt them and think they would flop, but this group has so much potential!

this music video makes me bawl my eyes out every time I watch it as someone in my mid 20s lol youth is so damn fleeting and there are so many people i've lost contact with since my high school days but the memories I have with them are so bittersweet and I just wish the best for them even if I never talk to them again

It's your fault I'm in tears at work. I loved the way you explain the Idol- Fan relationship. I'm so happy to have the support my groups give me and I'll always remember them with a grateful heart and a smile

This made me realize. I have been a kpop fan for more than a decade now. I'm now 27. Yet, I'm still indulging myself in the fantasy of kpop. I think I haven't been able to move past the next step. I am still looking and still want more. Some of my friend that I met through kpop are now married have their own families. But here I am, still living in the fantasy. I know we all have our own timeline. And life is not a race. But this thought make me think, when will I move on the next step of my life? Will I be able to reach that?

Fun fact at 4:41 Minji says that she made a mistake for the choreo but I guess the editors kept it in anyway since it matched the vibe of the mv

I got chills and a little chocked up watching this. I haven’t listened to KPOP since 2020, because life happened and I just didn’t have time anymore. New jeans is being talked about literally everywhere, and you popped up in my recommended. So I decided to give a watch. Now I have a baby, I sometimes look back at old MVs of groups that I loved. New Jeans is a group I would’ve definitely been into if I were still a KPOP fan. It makes me happy that there is a group doing new things and not getting too westernized. Maybe I’ll give their music a listen.

They said « let’s do the total opposite of Blackpink » and that’s a good marketing choice

I’m 31 now but started listening to kpop at 14. I still go back to watch my old groups like DBSK, big bang, super junior… such a nostalgic feeling. I’ve started getting into the new 4th gen groups as well. I did move away from kpop in my early twenties and never thought I would be back into it, yet here I am now again in my thirties as an adult. Have so many memories from high school days with kpop and to be able to enjoy those feelings and connections again now that I’m older is truly something special. I definitely connected to this music video, thank you for your break down!

Jordan, you really have to react to “OMG” by new jeans!!! The storyline was even crazier and so fun to watch! The editing was so damn good! I promise you would love this so much!!! 😆

this song I repeat it several times because it gives a vibe and sometimes it's sad because of the backstory of the music video. so Jordan we want you to react some newjeans's mv, awesome vid reaction tho.

oh my god the end "You can be like, 'I liked these guys.' and NewJeans says Ditto" THE DOUBLE MEANING thats so smartt

I literally cried watching the last bits of the MV while eating my McD burger 😭 tears just got out suddenly without me realising it. I always listened to this music but never watched the MV before until I saw your commentary because I love your reactions and theories. I read some of the comments here too and it seems like its not just me who has the same feelings of sadness and nostalgia. As I am writing this, my tears still won't stop. Indeed Kpop and Kdrama was my passion and it still is, but there were some moments that made me lose interests or when life is just too busy while growing up. I feel like I am writing my diary here but at least I am able to let out my emotions and share this to anyone who is reading this. P.S. thank you Jordan for sharing and don't stop making videos

Started watching with no idea whatsoever about this song but was crying by the end 😭😭😭❣️ thank you Jordan for explaining this so well. I didn't even relate that much till the evry end because I've never had that huge group of friends but I love my kpop groups and I was bawling when you told me it was about the idol fan relationship ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so much for this video

This is probably the best analysis video of this MV, you hit the nail on head on a lot of things. Clearly you have done some homework before explaining all of that detail, symbolism, name, etc. Nice one Jordan.

I don't think most people in other countries other than Korea would understand. Watching this music video for the first time, I felt so sad about this reality that I shed tears without even realizing it.

I found tears streaming down my face the first time I watched Ditto. Something about it really hit me deeply and has stuck with me since. The imagery of the fawn in the distance was especially impactful. I was a really lonely kid who felt so separated from my peers and unable to connect no matter how hard I tried. I lived in my imagination most of the time. I could really relate to the feeling of being outside looking in; that feeling of deliberately separating yourself when all you want is to be closer, that I feel like is shown through the MV as she’s using the camera to separate herself from her peers. I’m 29 now but I can still feel that lonely child somewhere inside me. The whistle sound at the beginning is so nostalgic for me for some reason, like I’ve heard it all my life even though I know I haven’t. It feels like drifting off back to the hazy dreamland of being young. That feeling of innocence and youth is still so present for me, even all these years later.

The director, Shin Woo-Seok, deserves recognition. He's responsible for most of their high concept videos. That freshness that comes through in his videos is in large part due to his lack of conventional Kpop experience. BTW, the fawn represents the ideal friend. Regarding the concept, Shin said he "wanted to talk about the fact that the relationship between an idol and a fan ultimately comes to an end, the meaning of the process, and the existence of each other". Ador deserves credit for approving the concept. It's quite bold actually.

NEWJEANS is truly the biggest GG of this generation. The concepts, the songs, the visuals, the choreography, the vocals. Everything about them just makes you smile and nostalgic. I love that they give relax and fun energy

When I watched their music video, I immediately knew that Jordan will have a great reaction to it.

When listening and watching this M/V for the first time, i did like the shots and filming, but I didn't get the meaning of it. But, after watching this video, I couldn't stop crying. Whenever i listen to spotify and this song comes on, i can't hold back the tears. Currently, I'm 16 years old and kpop is the thing that truly makes me happy. Whenever i feel sad, i just watch kpop music videos or episodes and i immediately feel better. Safe to say, kpop is home. The thought of growing up always scared me, it still does. I'm scared that all the happiness, youth, friendship, positivity and innocence will be gone. I'm scared that i will grow out of kpop. But, if i do, i will definitely go back to remember all the good memories. Thank you so much for the kind message❤ stay safe and live your life to the fullest.

4:40 I'm glad you're actually mentioned this! I always find it so cute because it is imperfectly perfect to tell a story in this MV. I could say their music videos are amazingly produced especially "Ditto" and "OMG". It will leaves you with a big question and keep coming back to look for clues and to find out the meaning behind each act. For Ditto, it has been emotional for me when I actually learnt the meaning behind it, which makes me feeling kinda scared to adore them too much. Heesoo in her young age reminds me of myself now with NewJeans. I'm too attached with their videos, and it makes me sad thinking that eventually I have to let them go from my life. But, I'm still rooting for them and wish for more and more happy years for NewJeans.

I’ve said it a lot but I’m gonna say it again; the song and MV of Ditto just tickles the part of my brain that I didn’t know exist. It’s so dreamy and almost feels like a backroom vibe tbh 😅

I have been a kpop fan for years now and I never thought I would cry at the plot of one. Here I am now after watching ditto its such a heartwarming story.

Wow thanks for your explanation. Now I feel like I m a little bit closer to NewJeans hope they all through all the hardship these day ❤

From the moment they came on the scene everything about them was 'this is a bunch of teenage girls doing teenage girl dances and being teenager girls' and that authenticity is something they'd grabbed here with this dancing and the angsty teen themes of crushes, and wanting a group of epic BFFS, and making up dances at random at school, and running around like a bunch of wild animals. Yes, it's partnered with a very profound questioning about the parasocial relationship between idols and fans, but fundamentally this group has said 'we're teenage girls and we gonna teenage girl our way through this' and I adore it.

The storytelling, music, cinematography EVERYTHING is so good about this MV. They have put so much effort that even Ban Hee Soo has her own RU-vid channel, which really brings the story to life. For those that don’t know about it, here’s the link: youtube.com/@banheesoo

I think the MV goes way deeper than what New Jeans said it was about. Kind of felt really deep emotions when I watched it!

as a person who just graduated high school, MAN. i remember going through my freshman year exclusively listening to kpop, learning the dances and learning korean. it was a fun hobby but a lonely one, and i lost a lot of friends because i became secretive due to the stigma around kpop at the time. after that i started studying like crazy to get into a good school and stopped seeing friends altogether. sometimes i would imagine i had a friend sitting on my bed while i studied to feel less lonely. i'd even talk to them and take them with me to school lol. what a time. i think this song is directed for the kpop fans who picked up kpop in high school and were isolated because of it. good video btw! definitely cried

If ever there is a award as best music video award new Jean's is definitely winning it

thank you for reminding us the impact of editing, I love how you keep on pointing out the story from the perspective of editing technique YOU'RE THE BEST! 🥺💖

The best video editor, not only editor he tells us about theories too! Waiting for your video's daily. Jordan is the best reaction channel ❤️

I feel tears in my eyes 🥹

honestly, when ditto came out, i remember everyone saying how good it is...i personally was shocked to see the MV though cuz it was so different from any other kpop MV, not gonna lie i was really confused too cuz we're so used to crazy transitions and films. After watching ur breakdown on the theory, i now realise why new jeans is so special. I relate so much to both the literal and the allegory meaning. As a teen in my junior year of highschool, i feel like the good old days when i used to hangout with my friends and have fun are gone and now it's all about good grades, good career and how to stabilize my life...and its so overwhelming i almost feel like giving up. Also, same for the fandom concept. I got into kpop in grade eight and was a huge BTS Army...but overtime i just drifted out of my obsession and found new groups to stan. But looking back at those memories when i was a hardcore army screaming looking at BTS MVs, i feel so nostalgic i miss those times. Thank you for the theory, i agree with you Ditto will change kpop forever!

What I love most about New Jeans's music and performances is the fact that they just look like a bunch of friends having fun. They're songs are simple yet such a bop!

IDK what to say after learning the MV's meaning...I'm a 2nd gen kpop fans and stayed away since 2015, none of other group gen catches my attention since then until my friend introduced NJ to me recently. Never ever thought that I'll one day come back to kpop again because of NJ. I started to learn more about them just like how I did in the good old days of 2nd gen kpop, y'all knew what happens when you started to love a new Kpop group. The fact that I'm turning 30 very soon, it's like the MV are purposely made to remind me that I have to enjoy their music in a healthy manner without being too attach. It hurts realizing this truth 😭...........before turning back to reality, please allow me to say it back: "DI T T O"

Ooof, Jordan -- I've watched your videos for a long time, and this was your most heartfelt analysis yet. So well done, thank you! I'm in my 50s, and while I enjoy K-pop a ton now at this phase of my life, I can absolutely look back at bands I worshipped in my adolescence and have those same feelings of being seen and understood better by music/groups/videos than by the confusion in my own life.

I’m so glad I decided to watch your reaction/analysis. I have been hearing new jeans on TikTok a lot, and wanted to check out their music videos and such and I was interested to hear your take. Watching this and your video as a 29-year-old K-pop Stan, who has been listening for over a decade brings a lot of nostalgia. the relationships that we have with K-pop idols is a strange one, but still very real. The kind of mood boosts and encouragement I get from my favorite groups feelfeels similar to that of what I get from friends in my real life. It’s important for us to recognize the dangers of putting too much faith in these para social relationships, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t hold any value at all. I’m so encouraged by the new generation and their thirst for authenticity, I really think it’s what the world needs now. As always, thanks for the work, you put into these videos!

Ik I'm late but ditto (based off of research) is about us kpop fans and apparently it talks about how we rely ourselves onto kpop and idols for our happiness and ditto says that idols are just strangers you may know them but they don't know you and they can't help you because they don't know you and that us kpop fans need to control ourselves and actually try to make your self happy by doing something else

I grew out of kpop slowly after the pandemic. Been listening to it since 2007 and those bands had a big impact in my life. These days I can't get into any new songs, the sound has changed so much... even this one is not my taste anymore... But I can see why they get attention and I hope they have a long, successful career. Maybe 10 years from now their fans will look back to this and remember how it all started and feel nostalgic just like I do with my bands from back in the day.

I’m so proud of them and what they achieved last year I hope the best to my girls for 2023

“We went through a lot of hardships when we were practicing for our debut because of this very reason. Our trainer told us that we have to seem like one body, but our moves can’t be the same. How are we supposed to do that? So we were all like ‘How do we do that?’” - Hanni I believe the choreography of Ditto was so unsynchronized or different because everyone expects idols to be perfect but they’re only human. Instead, They made up their own signature dance style and just wanted to have fun by dancing however they want. In Hype Boy era they all also had their own individual music videos. They all had their own different personas even in OMG. (though it probably isn’t that deep 😭)

honestly, cried when i first watched the music videos. it’s like we all instantly had this gut feeling of nostalgia and growing up and reminiscing 🥹❤️ i’m in the stage of life where i’m growing up and kpop is slowing fading from my every day, but there are moments i think back to the days where all i did was watch kpop videos/content & i cry remembering my youth ❤️

Great reaction to a fantastic pair of videos. I fell in love with them instantly after watching these and hearing al their songs. Can't wait to see how far they can go.

you literally made it make sense to me cuz i know there's something hitting me but idk what it was so i was really so confused AND NOW I'M BAWLING MY EYES OUT ╥﹏╥ that's why jordan's my favorite reactor 🥹 i learned a lot from him, be it from editing but also on what the mv actually wants to tell us 😭 I NEED DANCE THERAPY AFTER THIS

this meaning really makes me cry so hard, and i think i never cried because of a song before... this song was always special , but now i know the meaning and it makes it even more special for me

I love the authenticity of this and I also love it when groups perfect their craft into a perfect dance. I love that new jeans is making authenticity not be looked down on. Neither is lazy or too robotic it’s just how it fits their song and art. LOVE your reactions per usual

They are so talented, beautiful, adorable They will indeed change the K-pop

Amazing analysis as always! Ditto is the fan/idol relationship from the fan's perspective, and I think OMG is what the idol's side looks like. Can't wait for you to look at that!

jordan ... i didnt even realise that they messed up the choreo on purpose until u pointed it out sir... u r a geniouse

i remembered there was a challenge on this song where people bring back their old videos and its really gave this nostalgia

I woke up this morning not expecting to be hurt this way. Amazing video.

the explaination you gave at the end absolutely blew my mind and clicked as the pieces were getting put together. New Jeans is definitely gonna be one of those nostalgic groups that will hold a place in my heart so in a way we all relate to it, even if we just joined as a baby kpop fan or we've been in the fandom for years, as new groups arrive and debut, making it big and what not they will grow old and so will we. I didn't get a chance to watch the videos yet so watching yours first and hearing the backstory really shook me to the core lol ❤

After watching ditto I officially became a fan of new jeans cause not only ditto holds a deep meaning it's also Catchy honestly this type of concept I have never seen in kpop before

i could write an essay for ditto.. this mv is game changer

WOW! I didnt knew ANY of the MEANING behind the MVs but THANK YOU! Like I AM IN AWE and I AM SO AMAZED! LIKE WOW.🔥🔥 ✨✨

I first listened to this and thought, “Hey, this is an extremely catchy song with nice melody! One of my favourites now.” I never thought there would be so much meaning into a Kpop M/V like this. This is an M/V out of its norms, but definitely uniquely emotional and inspiring.

bruhh..you give me goosebumps with your last explantions. also it got my eyes teared a bit imagining for years later when i'm not a kpop fan anymore, trying to look back at my left kpop stuff if i still have. I'm an introvert and my youth literally only about kpop. i believe someday i will 'grow up' too from this kpop world. so this mv really shows how its gonna be.

we people grow up and lose interest in kpop. but we know they once had a special place in our heart. even if our brain intends to ignore & forget them, our heart will keep looking for them and will always come back to them.

I'm moving away for the first time in two weeks, from being with my parents and two brothers in my childhood town surrounded by memories and close childhood friends to going to an unfamiliar city and empty apartment to live by myself with nobody I know around me. I don't want to go. I don't want to let go of this bedroom I'm in right now and the comfort of my mum sleeping next door and my childhood cat curled against me in bed. I'm scared to move on but I know I need to. I've been repressing this feeling and focusing on the "exciting" aspect of moving away and living alone at 18... this video made me realise how I really feel. Help, I can't stop crying 😭

YES! I love that you included an interpretation at the end. They keep exploring this theme in their OMG music video too but from the idol's perspective. Thanks for the reaction!

this reaction video was so profound lol. i got goosebumps after jordan said "and newjeans says ditto"

Every year someone makes a video about how such and such group will change kpop forever. Yet kpop is still about skinny, pretty, young idols singing and dancing to songs produced by somebody else (with a few exceptions). It’s still about fans fighting among themselves about who is charting better who is selling more albums, how many daesangs a group got. It’s still about fan service and constant social engagement. It’s still about gaining US recognition. It’s still about charting on billboard.

OMG!! That was the best conclusion...I'm so happy that now I understand the meaning behind of this mv...

Best Concept I've ever seen

man, ur amazing in explaining the meaning behind these music videos and tbh i almost cried. New Jeans definitely is the New Genes of Kpop

I've been listening to kpop since I was 6 and now I'm 19 years old. When I open the songs I listened to at that time and watch it, I get really emotional like it is in this clip. As someone who grew up with Kpop, the messages that songs and clips give to people change and become more meaningful over time, and I understand this very well now. You can't understand the meaning of some songs the first time you listen to them, but you can understand the meaning of the song over time. When I watch this clip, I can't stop crying, it makes me very emotional, I realize that I have grown and everything has changed.

Newjeans' Gods is my favourite song of this year, I can't deny that but Ditto, Ditto is incredible. The rhythm, the lyrics, the simplicity, the tone of the music video, the story and everything, is just incredible.

wow i just got goosebump... your analysis is just as i thought. when you gets older sometimes you'll think about the past and all the good memories are popped out nowhere like new jeans popped up in the end at this story

Just to make you note something: There is an actual Ban Hesoo RU-vid channel where they are uploading all the shooting (placed in 1998) that was taken in this MV, with descriptions that give some hints of Ditto and OMG MV, please consider watching LiryOnni's channel videos about New Jeans (it's in Spanish but I'm sure you can use the translator) it explains very well the meaning of these MVs. (With fragments of interviews from the Ador head producer and these MVs director and the actual NewJeans members)

This just confirms my accident theory since the messages the girls have written was kinda reflecting a "survivor's guilt". Like she felt she should've died with them but the girls insisted she should live and get better soon. heesoo's (main lead) bandage written by the girls. another ditto theory "dont dieㅠㅠ“ "get better soon" "genius director ban heesoo” "OMG"❤
