Okay so each set has a meaning, love that you noticed the sets. They also match the lyrics they sing. Minnie - lion hunted and put in a museum Soyeon - lion in a cage trying to break free Soojin - hurt lion painted and de-clawed Miyeon - lion made into an art piece with daggers Yuqi - lion made into a "god" by humans Shuhua - lion put on display as a fashion piece You see a glimpse of the lion on top of the platform Minnie was sitting on and there's a shot of the lion painted and glorified but Soojin was lying in front of it hurt and wounded. The changing aspect ratios too, if you saw has a gold border when they were alone, like a cage. When discussing the concept, Soyeon said she wanted to portray that even when lions are caged (or hunted for art or fashion or deified), they are still majestic kings of the jungle. In the first chorus, they were wearing simple dresses and then war clothes and then finally they were wearing queen-ly outfits with the crown. There's a story to that in the live performance. When they sat on the "hyenas" it's to announce that they're "king of the jungle". It was interesting because Soyeon said lions are kings, but she wanted to show that queens are on the same level and capability, therefore Lion instead of saying Lioness which is the correct way to refer to female lions.
The Miyeon - > Yuqi prechorus combo is always my favorite because they both have such powerful voices but both very distinct at the same time. They did a similar prechorus in Hann and then in Uh Oh and they are all FABULOUS
THEY ARE THE QUEENS👑 I love them. I love this song. I love that stage in Queendom💕 And you know what? They did a MV for this! OMG THEY'RE KILLING ME WITH THIS
What I like about this song is that they all sing the chorus. The first chorus is Soyeon then Minnie and the second is Soojin then Shuhua and the last is Miyeon then Yuqi.
fiNALLY more reactions, I've listened to this song since the album release but seeing reactions is so fun, your reaction to miyeon was so singing and Yuqi just being alive was cute LMAO
I remember you talking to Deacs on twitter a few months ago saying that you just needed one more good comeback to stan because you were close but not quite convinced. Guess you were right. Welcome to Neverland. I'm really glad you love the song. I think this is a pretty special one for (G)I-dle and for the fans.
me : my bias is miyeon also me :... I love miyeon stable vocal I like yuqi cuteness I want soyeon charisma I wanna be like queen dancing soojin I can't stop replaying minnie highnote I can't deny shuhua pretty face SO WHO S MY BIAS? I CAN'T PICK🔥
Okay I just needed to say that yesterday I listen to Lion for the first time and then I like went to your channel to see if you did a reaction already but you didn't and then for the whole day I just sat in my bedroom watching your videos 😂 Edit: Minnie owns this era for me, she snapped
So far this is the only MV for a Queendom track. MNet clearly controls the rights to these tracks, or at least has an exclusivity window, but that didn’t preclude an MV and after the last episode was filmed and CUBE saw the result, they decided to go all in (right call based on response to the stage)! Mamamoo release their new album next week, and AOA are moving up a planned comeback to this month, but Idle were clearly ready to capitalize on Queendom as soon as the finale aired.
u r so really really cute brandon haha how cute u r i like on how you react and i think i have a crush on omygosh hahaha and ive watched your reaction on idle many times really haha because u r so cute ❤️
