The Kulture Study: NMIXX 'Love Me Like This' MV REACTION & REVIEW 

Some members have talked about how early they started to prepare for this comeback and the dates show that it was supposed to be an OT7 song, but since Jinni left they probably had to refilm a lot of stuff. That probably explains the big amount of plain white background scenes, but I still think they managed to make it look cool so it doesn't really bother me.

As an NSWER, for me, Bae is the vocalist that plays one of the most crucial role in NMIXX's harmonization. Her vocal ability to blend and harmonize seamlessly with the rest of the group's singers demonstrate her crucial importance in the overall vocal dynamics of the group.

the reason because most of the video scenes are on white background, it was because they needed to reshot the entire scenes where Jinni (ex-member who left the group) was still there, i heard they recorded the MV with her still in it, so in tight schedule they did that and i know it looks like a bit low budget MV but atleast it's not that bad and the song is fire so no complaint!

NMIXX deserves their first win 100%. That encore stage was amazing.

this song is insanely good. I say that as someone who's been listening to it every day and hasn't gotten even the slightest bit bored with it. the live stages make it even better, the adlibs sound incredible. I would really recommend their it's live and stage practice for it. Compared to O.O and Dice, (which I loved) I'd say LMLT is a lot easier on the brain at first listen, and more coherent. I definitely needed a few listen to get accustomed to the other two's sound but LMLT flows right into feeding my addiction

I think since Jinny left Bae got a lot more screen time, which I guess is a silver lining since she's my favorite

Want the full NMIXX experience? Watch their stage practice instead 😉 Also, thank you for noticing Bae. She doesn’t get credited enough but enough knowledgeable reactor shows her love so that’s the silver lining.

i'm normally not a fan of such a repetitive choruses but something about this song makes it work. have had on repeat since the release

NMIXX really did something different With Love Me Like This because it sounds very good and layered amazingly well with some 90s throwback music style in the beat

The member you just noticed is Bae, and she has a very unique tone of voice. You can notice her tone maybe more on ballads. She’s also the bubbly funny character in the group.

This choreo is incredible and they all sold it perfectly. I don't even know them well but I think this song is excellent. Also, Lily at the end???? I wouldn't fight her hahaa, she's so powerful.

Every title track from NMIXX is a masterpiece this was just another masterpiece added to the collection of mine.

I think JYP has been trying to create groups with staying power vs riding trends. Both Stray Kidz and NMixx do their own thing and have unique visions, even if you can't put your finger on it you know what they're about when you watch them. They are the type of polished but also unique group that creates a cult following (loona and dreamcatcher are other examples i can think of) despite not always riding the wave of whatever is trendiest right now, and that's what JYP wants in my opinion-- they want to create fandoms that last. I don't know if you've seen what the conversation around StayC has been like, but to me it feels like people were super into them and then when they tried a new thing (it wasn't even super new, still very much their sound??? but just different), people got mad and called them flops, and there are people already claiming that StayC has fallen off. StayC has way more obvious commercial success than NMixx does, but the fandom is different. That's what I think JYP was trying to do-- it's better monetarily for them in the long run to slow and steady build a very loyal and strong fandom, rather than to cash in on whatever is trending at the moment.

The member in the green plaid skirt? Bae! I noticed her voice positively in O.O and was shocked more people didn't. But, you're so right that this song is an 11/10 or maybe even higher. They also released a pre-release called Young, Dumb, Stupid that's worth your watch. So, keep that in mind at least when you go to do the album reaction.

I LOVE the white set. It MAKES the audience focus on their performance. So gooooood. The ending scene gives me goosebumps every time!

i get big red velvet vibes from this m/v and i love it. from the sound and vocal meledies, animation, just everything about the production. I think this is a step in the right direction for them, MUCH better.

NMIXX truly is a crazy talented group and I've loved them since the beginning. Despite all the criticisms they've gotten from debut up until now, I feel like they are definitely going to blow up in the near future and I can't wait for that to happen.

Really agree that JYP is almost trying to make an aesthetic out of NMIXX. It's not necessarily a genre like other groups in the past, but just a consistent experimental image?

I love all the Easter eggs if you haven't figured it out yet the dog introduced to the bark sounds is similar to the drums in the pre chorus that you couldn't figure out. As soon as she sings "fireworks" the drums hit in a random firework pattern and I love it.

Arrangement (and composition) by LDN Noise, that's why it's such a banger

If you listen to the instrumental of the song, it sounds very minimal. Their voices carry this song so much. They rely on adlibs too instead of instrumentation which is phenomenal. Also, there's a part in the video where Lily's hair was much shorter. It is rumored that they already prepared for this during the Dice era where one member was still with them (5:06 part of this video, Lily's hair is shorter and there's an obvious gap where someone should have been there but was cut out of the video) and when that member left, they had to re-do the songs from the album, the choreo, and the music video which they already were in the middle of making. Don't quote me on this though.

For sure they had to re-film/record certain MV parts after Jinni left the group... they started to prepare for this comeback very early. Just compare NMIXX reaction to the MVs "Young, Dumb, Stupid" (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pq5iXtNuauE.html) and "Love Me Like This" (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zXdRbxS9owE.html , 3:30-3:36), it pretty much confirms. Anyways, their practice and performance videos are 10/10!!

Seeing them in Paris for the Music Bank was magical

Members' names in order of your second watch: Main rapper - Kyujin Member that had a confusing role and caught your attention - Bae Descending verse melody - Haewon Intros the song and cool rap section - Jiwoo Flower chandelier - Sullyoon GOD DAMN IT - Lily

ComPLETELY agree with your summary. This is the song. This is the group. This is their dancing. 👏👏👏👏👏 I've been listening to this non-stop.

This song gives me the chills...with their vocals and choreography. You should watch their stage practice in which they sing this song LIVE and dance AT THE SAME TIME.

The end to this song gives me serotonin honestlyy, sooo good

Admittedly, I didn't give this group a proper chance, but seeing them perform Love Me Like This on [it's Live] solidified my interest in them: worth checking out.

I literally smiled througout the video. Nmixx seriously needs recognation and they dont deserve the hate train all this while AT ALL. Thankyou PD!

Bae is my bias since day 1, and in this MV She shines like a Diamant and i’am here for it.

'Young Dumb Stupid' was when you saw the growth in production. And the Voice Only album preview was where you saw their understanding of each member's voices and how to arrange for them..

My favorite group is SKZ and I agree that NMIXX is similar to them, imo in terms of big energy and boldness. to me these groups feel like every member is hungry for stage, everyone enjoys perfrorming to the maximum. also both groups are famous for their live stages and and you can see personality in each of the members. although the personality part is very coomon for every JYPE' group. NMIXX is a bit more polished, since their division seems to be putting SO much thought into their debut and concepts. it's a pity that the girls got so much hate for their previous songs, but I'm really happy for them now and their success with the latest album. I do believe that they're going to grow both in Korea and interationally, and will find their place on top, their talent is unmatched among the 4th gen kpop groups!

When this reaction is out, we all know deep down desperately wants him to react to the stage practice as well. Live singing while dancing gonna shocked him. 😂

yessss the guitar in the chorus, the clean white background, the dance, the facial expressions, the beat..... absolutely bonkers!!!!!!

Tbh with you, with Jinni gone I feel like all of the members banded together and really improved individually and as a group. This song is still very unique and still fits their concept I feel. I can’t see another group doing this song any justice.

i fell for NMIXX after 30 seconds of hearing them for the 1st time. I'm a big fan of "different" and the next thing, musical experimentation, future music, boldly going forth and forgetting the mainstream, etc. NMIXX checks all my boxes, instant stan. then when I consider their visuals, singing ability, their personalities, dance talent, the choreography, risky and unique videos. I would go as far as to say they are the very best Kpop group overall. I love their reality shows.. they are perfect to me and honestly, actually better with 6 members, it gives each member just the right amount of time for a perfect mix.

This is my favorite cb from nmixx! Very catchy and just a bop

8:52 - As you asked about her name - That’s Bae. She is not a rapper. KyuJin, JiWoo and formerly Jinni were assigned to the rap positions. But she is really great. As you once mentioned your thought about a “solid rock” in a group (you talked about this in you LOUD reactions and you gave Jang Hyun Soo as an example and Lee Know from Stray Kids as well), I would say she could be something like this solid rock in this group. You don’t notice her immediately at first, but after some time you find out she somehow keeps the group together (I mean in the way of her skills, not like a leader)

their ep is also great, probably one of the best releases this year

One of my favorite things about watching Love Me Like This reactions is seeing how everything clicks in place for the chorus after people get hyped from the prechorus. You've already heard the chorus at the beginning of the song, but it makes so much sense when you have the full picture.

I think I had watched this MV at least 30 times before your reaction but you still made me see and hear things I hadn’t realised while watching it. I’m soooo happy that NMIXX are finally winning hearts because these ladies are ridiculously talented 😊 I’m really curious if they have a change in their team because both the song and MV really took things to a whole new level 🥰

this song has been on repeat for weeks love the choreo too...initially after my second listen i loved o.o especially the CHOREO and dice???????/ what a timeless piece????? still my favourite song from them for sure!!!!! i just hope more people grow to love them

I love LMLT!!! This is finally an Nmixx title track I love. I didn't enjoy their previous ones but I waited some more bec their vocals are insane. This song is the banger I wanted.

I'm one of the few that loved OO and really really loved Tank and I've been a fan from jump. So much talent. I love them. I hope your doing well in SKorea, sir! We all just want to see you happy!

I've never been super into Nmixx, because their arrangements were a bit chaotic for me (but it kinda grow over time?), but Expérgo? man it's fire. Every song in there is arranged beatifully and it is awesome.

I remember how I didn’t Realize the guitars that much in the chorus the first time listening on my phone. Then I listend to this song with headset and was blown away how much better it sounds when listening to headphones again! 🙈❤️

It is a smart decision to play to their strength: performance. I guess the simplicity of the video reflects the label's confidence in their talent

This song blew me away, surprised me by how good it is! It is so far my favourite comeback this year. I'll also give this one an 11/10 Better than previous releases, surely. Nmixx pretty much grew on me, wasn't too sure about them before but loving them as a group. I think Jiwoo is my favourite in the group. Looking forward to their next releases and to be surprised again

I love this song, if you don't it's probably because you don't like the genre cause it's honestly so good. I loved o.o but nothing else from them was really giving justice to their insane talent and now we finally have it!

Thanks for the reaction. Just like you, O.O grew on me too, and as someone who loves watching live stages im so glad and happy watching you getting excited about them from those stages. What pulls me into this song is the choreo, i feel like it wont work as well if the choreo isnt as intens as what we got. Def 10/10. Anyway, their b-side young dumb stupid released weeks before this one, please check it out if you have time. Would love to see your comment on that one too.

ITS SO GOOD I WENT INSANE

Hopefully there will be Young, Dumb, Stupid MV Reaction because that song is a pure genius and something else! Love the way you react to the Love Me Like This MV as it grows more in you

absolutely a masterpiece NMIXX outdid themselves with this one

It felt so surreal getting this type of reaction from you! And thanks for pointing out that barking background sound. I thought I was the only one who noticed it! Love ittt

I'm SO glad you decided to react to this one! it's one of my fave releases from the year and the album is absolutely incredible, I hope you listen to it in your free time because it's just, wow.

The member you took notice of is Bae. And there is a Wizard of Oz story incorporated. If you look at the dog, they CGI drew a mane on him like the cowardly lion.

STAN NMIXX!!!!!

This is my favorite NMIXX comeback 👌🏻

Before that I liked them , now I love them....

NMIXX is the best 4th gen vocal group by far. Great dance/performance groups will always come, but vocal groups are forever

Pd's reaction is honestly like every one else this song knocked me off my feet

If you look to their stage practice of Love me like this you gonna have your mind blown for real!!

the way this song gave them their first win and their first top 10 🥹 well deserved

I really love this song! All the members equally shined are so talented. Plus, the video was so fun to watch. It’s giving me Destiny’s Child /Fifth Harmony vibes. I dig it. 💕🎶💗

i left a comment under your O.O reaction video saying i respect the girls but hate the song, i deleted it recently because i changed my mind and love the song now, lol! this one is amazing, i also like young dumb stupid, and i think this group is just gonna keep getting better

finally, nmixx come to slay again

Bae has caught my attention from day 1, idk why but her charisma is (to me) the best in this group, again, idk why but yea and also she's a great singer fr fr

I wasn't a major fan of their music before but I really love this song. I think this concept fit some really well and I hope they stick with something like it. I didn't like O.O and I like dice, but wouldn't really listen to dice without watching the music video, but I would listen to this song just on its own. I'm really happy about it because I really love the girls I just hadn't been a big of a fan of the music, as I had hoped I would be.

Following the trends of twice, itzy, and stray kids, nmixx is the next step and each of these girls stepped I to and are working to exceed their expectations. I love them all

Bae es realmente increíble, ella sola carga con el peso de hacer que todas las miembros suenen más genial de lo que son y lo hace sin sonar mal ella.. realmente increíble.

I've been waiting for a song and concept like this ever since their cover of Move Your Body by Beyoncé 😭❤💕 It fits their vibe so well, they slayed so hard 🔥🔥

I will never unhear the dog bark ever

When i hear the beat i remember the Wondergirls - like this

I have been waiting for this just to see your reaction to the 2nd line of the chorus when all the guitars and drum a came in

Nmixx is of the group that u'll get mesmerized bcoz of talent and not the music MV. Mv quality can be achive through time but talent. NAH! thats what NMIXX have that other GG's lacking.

nmixx back to their jyp roots

U NEED TO REACT TO THE WHOLE ALBUM ITS TOO GOOD!!!

love me like this deserves more recognition, much more than it already has, smash hit!!

i personally didn't really like their songs before this, but this one got me HOOKED

all the sets that look like normal rooms after a while start looking like they're the wrong size, like they got smaller, it's subtle but very interesting

I've been waiting for this reaction for so long! please react to the stage practice !

They are so talented! Their dance practice for this song was amazing too, the vocals in that are insane, they sang live in the dance practice video and it’s so good!

Thank you FormofTherapy for flooding us with new content every week 🥹😩 God bless you

I totally agree with your idea. Their comeback song this time are incredible. And I hope you will react their another song’s call ‘’ YOUNG DUMB STUPID’’ too❤

I FUCKING LOVE WHEN PD LIKES A MV

NMIXX pre chorus always magical ❤❤

when i first listened to this song i was honestly disappointed that they didn't go for their usual "crazy mix-up that leaves everyone confused" route since i love both dice and o.o and this song felt very safe, as if another edgy girl group could've easily released it.. it didn't feel unique. but at the same time, i'm 1000% sure i would not have kept coming back to it if it were any other group that released it. sure, it might be ""safe"" considering their past title track's reputation but their unique vocal colors and rapping tones is what elevates the song from good to great as someone who strongly believes they're one of (if not the most) talented 4th gen k-pop gg on the scene, and who has been supporting them since debut, it genuinely really hurt seeing people downplay the entire group just because the music they put out was way too "different" and "weird". i'm glad this comeback has highlighted their strengths and finally given talent a full chance to shine. and the fact that they're stable live too.. they're outstanding!

once u watch nmixx variety content u will look at them differently. really really funny thats why i actually fell in love with nmixx.

I never noticed the barking till you pointed it out omg

It's funny how O.O became everyone's favorite after a year sjsj

Ah yes, loved O.O after the first listen (the coke ad is not that bad if you just listen to the song) and bought their album just to help them get a succesfull debut. Then I was floored by their stages and I really like them, they even made me like and sing along YoungDumbStupid after a few listens and here they have a chorus which lyricwise consists only of repeating the same 4 words, which destroys most songs for me, but here I don't mind. The instrumenta is very good. Also I love I can buy their music digital, I wish I could for all groups. Btw, they got their first win with this. (:

idk if you know, but PIXY released a new comeback called “Karma” a couple weeks ago! you should def listen to it!

8:49 Thank you for mentioning BAE. She underestimates herself and doesn't realize how important she is in the group :( it makes me so sad.

It was nice seeing you getting blown away😄

That's now my favorite NMIXX title. Initially I were disappointed with them leaving behind their mix pop style but when I overcame that I realized this song is SO GOOD 🎉 The bridge is perfect, the topline at the beginning reminds me of Red Velvet's "ZOOM" bridge "bamsae Replay (replay) neoneun so loud (neoneun) nae gwitgareul maemdora" and the bridge on NMIXX's song goes "show me your way eoneu teume jaranan ikkeullim". Also the guitar on the chorus literally had me screaming it's amazing.

This is all I’ve wanted for NMIXX, I have honestly always loved them BUT the one thing that made me sad is no longer having Jinni 😭 but still love em!

I can somewhat feel what PD felt about NMIXX--JYPE trying a "Stray Kids approach" to NMIXX. And as a STAY, I'm actually not mad about it, because if there is any group that has that talent level and that certain "charm" that SKZ have, imo its IDLE and NMIXX. When they released "DICE" and "Cool", I fell in love immediately like how I fell in love to SKZ in a snap lol.

You have to reaction young Dumb Stupid by NMIXX too, its very catchy and colorfull video.

love me like this soty idc😭

What made the white backdrop shots clean as well is partly because of the color grading. You can vaguely see the shadow tint is greenish and their skin tone was pulled back that they all look pale. Blends well with the white backdrop in my opinion.
