The Kulture Study: SEVENTEEN 'LALALI' MV 

Hiphop unit was insane for this 😰

Scoups' part is actually so GOOD ! Like those lyrics are implicit and have a double connotation which make them so powerful

The unit mvs for this era are seriously some of their best ever likee I hope they keep working with this team in the future

I already thought the mv was so cool on the first watch but your explanations of the references to Korean culture really helped me appreciate it more

I love how Mingyu at 기원 looks like that typical 80s/90s (especially the youngest) uncle who went to Seoul and made a lot of money but NOBODY knows how he made so much😂😂😂😂 +The fact that Wonwoo is on laborers' side is an interesting twist because typically gangs were either hired by managements or managements themselves back then🤔

WONWOO IS DIVINE! His second verse rap is also my favorite! It is FIRE! I love how he just went off like that! I also like Cheol's rap with the spit bar, Vernon's not tteokbokki and Gyu's rap with split the money 1/13 + him shirtless hehe. WONU, CHEOL, GYU and VERNON all ate and left no crumbs! THIS MV AND THIS SONG IS CHEF'S KISS! I can't get over this and Monster plus Fire and Back it Up! I did not expect the quality of Lalali MV, Spell MV and Cheers to Youth MV to be title song like! They did not skimp on the budget! I do hope that in the future that they would also release MVs for all the unit songs!

I love all the references of svt's career in lyrics and mv, lalali is 100% hip hop unit energy

Seventeen always EATS with MVs for sub units, it's their second time doing it and they managed to top what I thought was already amazing. I love Trauma, and yet Lalali surpassed it. Same for Lilili Yabbay/Pinwheel and Spell/Cheers to Youth. I am probably biased because I went feral for Performance Unit once again, but just like during Teenage era, Hiphop Unit comes as a very close second and leaves a lasting impression

I swearr everytime PD reacts to Seventeen i can feel the smirk and happiness on his face

Those wardrobe with Vernon is called “자개장” (자개=pearl oyster, since those shiny patterns were made by the shells of them, and the term -장=wardrobe) And those styles of traditional korean craftworks are often called “나전칠기” and yes, they're expensive😂 +) and Mingyu's 바둑 scene is from the famous match of AlphaGo (AI that plays go games) versus Sedol Lee in 2016. He is the only person who won AlphaGo on the official match. (AlphaGo won 73 games out of total 74 games and was defeated only 1 time-by Sedol Lee.)

The production of the unit mvs was AMAZING. This one has become one of my favorite mvs EVER and now I can appreciate it way more, knowing the meaning of some of the details.

8:00 I've seen some translations define it as "delinquents"

Hiphop unit is my favorite, such a good song. Wonwoo rap part killed me.

I always love your reactions to Seventeen!

14:56 Wonwoo straight up looks like a mob boss in a kdrama . Wonwoo actor when

i was searching for the meaning of lalali and couldn't find anything so thank you. so much for explaining, great video like always

Bro you look fresh with that hairstyle 🤩

NAH why mingyu caught me off guard like that

the first unit music videos since TEENage, and I am here for them

OMG thanks for putting some context to this song and video. I thought it was just a quirky concept for a video but now I understand the whole reference. THANK YOU! ❤

I can’t believe I’ve just found you, it’s so cool the way you explain the set and the cultural importance of all the elements and how they fit the concept, 20 minutes went by so fast, you’re incredible!

SVT comebacks aren't complete without PD's reviews.

No one does Seventeen’s mv reviews like you!!!

Was waiting for your reaction!!!

I woke up, need to get ready to work form home so I opened YT, noticed new vids of PD, liked all of the SVT reaction vids. As a Korean I love your explanation of all the references! Thanks always

This MV looks cool

FINALLYYYYY!!! LOVED YOUR EMPHASIS AND FURTHER EXPLANATION OF THE CONCEPT, PD-NIM!!! LET'S WAIT AND MANIFEST THAT SVT WILL DO MORE OF THIS CONCEPT ^^

MISSED YOU PD !! You make our carat lives better just by being you !

15:35 S.Coups is basically saying that "man's not hot"

great vid as always PD !! i learned more abt the korean culture thanks to you ^^

I knew I could trust PD to tell me the correct pronunciation of LALALI because I asked 50 times on twitter and no one responded but I knew they were not sounding it as La-La-Li for sure lol

Wonwoo is just 🤌🏻

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOUR REACTION TO THIS ONE!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Epic song, epic video, EPIC SEVENTEEN!

still waiting for PD to upload TWS video reactions since TWS is Seventeen's 9 years long awaited dongsaeng

기다렸는데 마침내! 한국적 요소에 대한 설명이 좋네요

loved this video as always !! I love your analyses so much

I just feel so happy when you post Pd!! Stay happy and healthy ❤️🌸🌸🌸🌸

Have been waiting for this your reaction

Vernon owned this for me

There's a really fun and good "behind the scenes" MV (released last week) for LALALI if you're interested.

Shout out to your new hair cut! Am i late here? 😅

Hyung looking great

옷장의 문양은 자개 라고 하고요 저런 옷장을 자개장이라고 하는데 옻나무 수액이랑 전복껍데기로 만들어요!

WONWOOOOO 🫠🫠❤️

I really love seventeen, ❤ and I am happy to be a carat ❤

Highlight pinwheel trauma check in change up

No doubt my fav is VERNON’s teokpokki ❤❤❤

I hope you react to Nectar by The Boyz too 🫶

I love your reactions ❤please do react to Apink's Kim Nam Joo her 2nd solo album called BAD😊

why did they stop making reactions to Ateez?😢

Where your boynextdoor (?)

2:51 cheol spit on tips jar (spit 🔀 tips)

MISSED YOU PD !! You make our carat lives better just by being you !

I just realised that the first L can also be seen as ㄴ, therefore ㄴALARI

The reason you are my favourite is because I get to know more about the culture and references which I didn't have any idea about when I saw the actual mv.

that really is popcorn, vernon ate some when he shot the scene😂😂

I was waiting for this!!!!

Been waiting for your video reactions these last few weeks. 😂 Yay!

waited patiently for this! always love how you dissect their music videos 🩷 i learn so much! thank you, pd ✨️

Was so excited to watch your reaction! So appreciative of you breaking down all the cultural references, I knew some from Korean media like the ahjumma style but I really did not know what lalali meant so your explanation was perfect! When I first watched the mv I was just hyped with the song and how hot they looked I did not the delinquent theme and they made it look so cool, yeah this music video is so good!!

Pretty sure the "janitor" is one of their backup dancers. Coups has a tattoo so it's interesting he has a fur coat on while in the sauna..Mingyu's foot scratch is like itching your crotch in public !!!!!!!!! Such a great video!!! Couldn't wait for you to break it down for us !!!!!

thanks for all the social references, i didnt even know what lalali means

The lacquered cabinet really draws my eyes those are reaaaaallly expensive

i only understand the meaning of the mv because of you hahahaha

이 뮤비는 좀 쩔죠

Wow thanks for explaining the Lalali meaning!!! Love your Seventeen reactions!!!! Thanks PD 🩷🩵

Hip hop just always comes hot with the subunit songs. I do wish that they’d switch it up once more like they did with If I that was unnecessarily hot for a low tempo song.

hi, can u please react to boynextdoor - eart, wind, and fire?:)

without knowing the lyrics and the meaning of the word 'nalari' i felt like it was a gangster song.. the moment i heard it i texted my sister saying this song is something they would feature in indian movies like 'shootout at lokandwala' (i'm form india).. once the mv was out i was so freaking excited, it is everything i expected from the mv to this song..

Thank you so much for the korean culture insights. I love this song and video but you just made it even better
