SM's BEST DECISION! SuperM - ‘One (Monster & Infinity)’ Reaction 

Still angry they never used this song in a Marvel movie!😭 I mean they had the collab and even the theme song is blended into the song at the end!!😭😭

SuperM is such a fun group. Their live performances especially always blow me away. I can't wait for their comeback!

The song is actually a mashups of two songs, Infinity and Monster, that's why it takes you by surprise. Monster is the beginning, Infinity is the chorus, and it goes back and forth between the two with the same pattern but the bridge is a mix of the two. When you listen to the album you'll see. Basically Infinity sounds like a Marvel theme song and Monster is a bit calmer? in comparison.

I swear no matter how many times I listen to this Lucas’s part at the end always gives me chill bumps!!!

Fun fact: If you know some of SHINee's song history, you might notice several references to iconic SHINee moments within SuperM's "One (Monster & Infinity)". For instance, SHINee has a song called "Sherlock (Clue & Note)" which was created by combining two songs from SHINee's Sherlock album "Clue" and "Note" to create their title track "Sherlock." Just like how "One (Monster & Infinity)" takes two songs, "Monster" and "Infinity" from SuperM's album to create their title track "One" on their Super One album -- the green outfits and choreography is supposed to be monster-like, where the military uniforms and bright clothing represent "Infinity". (As you can see, the beat switches up because it's a mashup of the two songs.) Also, as the SuperM members made reference to during their press conference for the release of their album, one of the parts of the "One (Monster & Infinity)" choreography uses a finger movement that is very reminiscent of an iconic part of SHINee's "Lucifer" choreography. And yes, "One (Monster & Infinity)" is mostly in English, just like "100" and their debut "Jopping" are also mostly English. SuperM is supposed to be geared toward the U.S. market so all their title tracks and most of their album will be in English. Hence their U.S. debut in 2019 and SM's partnership with Capitol Records and Marvel. Although there is so much happening in the "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV that could be connected to EXO's storyline, right off the bat, what I see are references to Kai and his role in EXO's storyline with the numerous pyramid/triangle symbols you see throughout the MV. As part of EXO's storyline, Kai's symbol is a pyramid, which represents his teleportation superpower. Also, how I interpret the scene with Kai hanging from the building, is that he is climbing up a building and as he is climbing, pieces of the building are breaking loose. Think of it kind of like a scene from a 007 or Mission Impossible movie, or maybe those are pieces of something that he is being attacked with from above or are falling from something being destroyed above him. You also see drones hovering below him, but I am not sure if that is what he is trying to avoid because they are controlled by the Red Force, or if that is part of SuperM's arsenal and they are helping him in his mission. (Which, now I think are connected to the drones you see in WayV's "Take Off" and "Moonwalk" MVs and Kai's solo "Film: Kai" and "Mmmh" MV storylines, etc.) The military uniforms are used to show that they have become soldiers now preparing to help EXO battle and defeat the Red Force. (SuperM's debut "Jopping" MV was filmed in the desert in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Therefore, I think the tan uniforms are connected to that MV and are designed to be a continuation of their storyline, as a way to help them blend into the desert environment we see them in in "Jopping".) If SuperM is taking members from each of SM's groups and joining forces to take down the Red Force, even more evidence of this is the fact that in "One (Monster & Infinity)" you see Lucas floating in the air, which reminds me of his part in WayV's "Turn Back Time" MV, where he is suspended in the air as the fallen angel. And that part of the story possibly even could be connected to the scene were we see Xiaojun suspended in the air with wings in WayV's debut "Take Off" MV. The fact that SM has now officially partnered with Marvel to fully bring to life SuperM's concept of being the Avengers of Kpop, and because their storyline is supposed to be about creating an Avengers-like group to help EXO battle the Red Force, it only makes me more sure that SuperM's storyline and all the groups represented within SuperM are all connected to EXO's larger storyline and the SM Culture Universe. (When this MV first premiered, there was a special promotional clip in the beginning of the MV that advertised merchandise that was created by Marvel to promote SuperM.) At the end of the "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV, what you see are flashes of SuperM's pre-debut/ "Jopping" MV teasers and they were how the group was introduced and it showcased the members special powers and abilities and helped to establish the group's concept and storyline. Which was a lot like how EXO's storyline was started and has unfolded over the years. The last clip with Taemin and that LG phone, besides being a product placement ad, it's also clearly the next clue or piece of SuperM's storyline. I'm pretty sure that scene is meant to set up something that will become important in the future to continue SuperM's story. Plus, we see, Kai and Taeyong using the same phone in the MV. (Those are real cellphones, which were a new make and model that was really for sale by LG at that time, they weren't just props in the MV.) In the MV, when you see Kai and Taeyong using the phone, it looks like they are looking at a map displayed on the screen. This could possibly be a map to help them navigate through the maze, which it looks like they are in in "One (Monster & Infinity)". As part of EXO's storyline, the members of EXO are trapped in a maze by the Red Force and they are trying to find their way out. So, SuperM may be coming to help the other EXO members find their way out of the maze and to break the control the Red Force has over them, etc. Fun fact No. 2: Taemin's end teaser was even kept a secret from the rest of the SuperM members and they didn't know it was part of the MV until they watched the official MV during a special release party. And now, since the release of "One (Monster & Infinity)", we discovered that the symbol you see on Taemin's phone -- ae -- is actually the logo/symbol for SM's new girl group aespa. aespa debuted Nov. 17, 2020, about 2 month after this MV was released. It now looks as though the end scene was meant to be a teaser for aespa's debut and designed to establish the group's connection to the SM Culture Universe. aespa's concept revolves around the fact that their name means "Avatar experience" and each of the girls has an Avatar character, so they also are superhero-like beings. We will have to wait to see whether aespa joins forces with SuperM or if they end up (joining Red Velvet?) becoming part of the Red Force. (Does the Black Mamba/villain from aespa's storyline turn aespa evil so they join Red Velvet in their pursuit to take down EXO/SuperM? Or, does aespa defeat the "villain" and harness their powers to help EXO?) So on that note, I can't emphasize enough, how important it is to pay attention to all of the storylines with all of SM's groups, because everything SM does is designed to connect storylines and plots, etc. Each group has their own individual storyline and concept, but when you put them all together, there are threads of connection between the groups. And that includes EXO, Red Velvet, NCT/WayV, aespa, and maybe even Taemin's solo work and SHINee's storyline, as well as now all of SM's older groups and artists, such as Super Junior, TVXQ, BoA and Kangta, etc. If you like their dancing, you should also check out the dance practice for "One (Monster & Infinity)".

Little did we know, the SM universe starts here. Until now, we don't know the role of SuperM in SMCU lol

That Ten and Baekhyun high note still gives me goosebumps

I went to their concert in 2020 and it’s was one of the best KPop concerts I’ve ever gone too. Their unreleased solos were album worthy!! I wish it was after this album dropped though. Would have been even better. I seriously hope they go on tour again 😭😭 BTW this song was a collab with Marvel (cause they are the Avengers of KPop). There’s a trailer you absolutely need to watch cause all of the guys were drawn like the comics. I was super hype for a while after that lol and it’s a mashup of 2 songs on the album (Infinity and Monster). Listen to both of them then this one again. Infinity is superior in my opinion.

I remember how SM first added Ten to SuperM as a rapper, but then they realized he's more fit to be a vocalist... and now we have that high note 🤩😍

Tiger inside and 100!!!

Such a great super group…all my favorites! Cant wait for their comeback!

Lucas 💚💚 Missing him so much !! Cant wait for their comeback

SM's BEST DECISION! SuperM? ...and you are sooo right. They are the best of the best

It is a collab with Marvel, in this song and in "Joppin" you can hear the Avengers song in the background, sometimes at higher notes but it's there :D

This is my favorite SUPERM MV/song!! Aside from Better days. 🤍

you should listen to SuperM - Monster and SuperM - Infinity, personally, this last one is my fav

You should react to monster and infinity separately.these are bops

If you listen closely you can hear the Marvel "theme" in the background. This was when they did their SuperM x Marvel collab. Which I still think is one of the most lit things ever.

Infinity, one of the song in this song (the chorus is a part infinity) is so so good as it's own.

I’m watching you from Uganda from the motherland i enjoy your content so much it makes me happy i hope you have a lovely life and keep what you doing ❤️.

sm is an expert in creating experimental music. before superm's one (monster & infinity), there was sherlock (clue + note) by shinee and i got a boy by girls' generation. one year later aespa released next level, and most recently we got to listen to stamp on it by got the beat. these are all masterpieces. when it comes to mixing songs, sm producers really know what they're doing.

You should check jopping and tiger inside

Do you know this song is actually 2 songs joined together?thats so brilliant

SuperM is the Best! Waiting for the comeback ot7 ❤️ thanks for the reaction Seb!

You should check the two songs Infinity and Monster

i like one but personally i like infinity by itself so much better😭 it has such an epic feeling to it

This album is masterpiece

you need to listen to infinity ver its my fav

Where are the SuperM fans ?!😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for the reaction please more SuperM EXO and NcT or SM artis song or Mv i fans of them thank you for good reaction God Bless you.

Omg PLEASE WATCH the trailers

I swear superm has no single bad song

seb.. I found out it's two mixed songs 2 years after the release when I clicked on the album and saw the individual songs -.-

Super M es EL GRUPO

I wanna see Tin! ❤️

U should react the whole superm albums

You should see the infinity song 🔥Better than "one" in my opinion

Beakhyun's voice oh my God

Baekhyun 🔥 the voice and his dancing , everything on fire

The best chorus ever!!!!

*recommending "dancing with the devil" by isbanky and "comedy" by jeff satur*

Marvel had ONE JOB to use this song for the movie but nah😑

I love Baekhyuns's parts in this. Near the end when he did that big note with another member, you said Lucas - I don't think he can even get that high lol It was Ten singing with him

Came back to watch this hoping it would lighten the mood but nope I'm just angrier. Angry that SM refuses to respect and protect its idols and would rather sabotage a group (or in this case 3 different groups, NCT, SuperM and now EXO *again*) than admit their own mistakes and say "sorry, we f*cked up. Our bad, we will fix it and never do it again". Also SM maybe if you paid your idols a fair percentage, dropped the insane contracts and protected your idols from sasaengs and controversy, then you wouldn't be hated by literally everyone including your OWN IDOLS. Sorry for the rant, I'm just pissed off and scared for the future of groups and individuals I really really like.

Lololol, we broke Sebastiane again

Being honest, I liked both songs better separate, and monster is the better song to me 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️. But either way this song is amazing and they NEEDED THIS FOR MARVEL like bro come on

Let me tell this is not kpop group This is Kai-pop group

Gosh it hurts to see Lucas and think that we won't be able to see him again any time soon. SM it's great to post videos of him but we need an official comeback from him. We miss him too much. WayV and NCT are not the same anymore without him. We need his dorky side around ASAP!

Please react to their Tiger inside song 😊. Thank you.
