I just don't get why people are expecting a bad boy-like or psycho-like song from them when we all know that cake girls doesn't repeat their discography they're always up for something new and different
Yep, you watch a RV video and they may be trying to murder the pizza guy, they may be trying to murder each other, they may be talking to fruit...... bring on the weird!
Red Velvet is one of the only girl-groups in Kpop that everybody spends the next 3 months trying to decipher all the symbolism and hidden meanings in their videos. The Edward Scissorhands moment is actually an inside joke that only ReVeluvs would get, because he is literally the ONLY person Wendy would ever win a game of rock-paper-scissors against.
The yeti scene is a spin on the red light green light from squid games, yeri's the doll, wendy, seulgi and yeti man are the players, yeti man was caught moving just like squidgame, instead of being shot with a gun he was blown because he was caught
I'm really happy that people still find Red Velvet MV/MUSIC weird and different. The first MV I watched from them was DUMB DUMB and they blew my mind. Thanks for this reaction. I learned a lot.
I have another theory than them just trying to get into a birthday party. I think they could be inside a board game, which could explain all the weird villians and trails/challanges/missions. 5:35 The key even lands on a board game that they are already standing on(in earlier scenes too). Maybe you win the game by getting all the keys from the villains? which they did. btw 1:54 they were playing red light, green light.
But isn't red light green light the game where u move when the doll face doesn't look at you and faces in opposite direction? But the Yeti here is moving only when the girls are moving and is also facing them ??
@@Lyf4rMusic So Yeri is the doll - Seulgi and Wendy are playing along with the Yeti. When they're supposed to be frozen, Yeri uses her power to make the Yeti's fur move, and they say HEY YOU MOVED so he lost and they win. Basically. :)
I love how this music video references horror movies and has so many hidden details and elements. Red velvet is so good at giving us an appealing concept while sticking to their original creepy style :D
ok so if you watch red velvet reacting to their own mv, you will figure out some of the story of this mv. first, they all had powers, for example irene at the start of the mv she spelled some magic to make the guard fall asleep, oh she also use remote to stop the men when they chase rv, and then joy mentioned that her power is levitating things or smth, anyway yeah so they have some kind of power, I'm not sure about the rest tho cuz they only explained briefly. The other thing is about the whole story of this mv, so it turns out that all of the weird places their in is kind of a stage or room that leads them to the main room where the party helded. First, the blue room where they play red light green light with that white thing, actually yeri mentioned that she blow a wind to make the white thing moves so that they could win, so it's probably yeri's power (wind), and they got the key to continue to the next room. Shortly, in every room they will have to defeat the creatures (idk what to call them) to get the key so that they can get into the birthday party. Ok so they did it and finally arrive at the last room where they have to fight the boss (the gingerbread yes). So seulgi fight him, with the chain. Seulgi also mentioned that it kinda connect with her 28 reasons mv (because of the chain). Anyway, seulgi win, they all did, they finally arrive at the birthday party where they ended up being the host lol maybe. Ok that's all I can explain, hope this helps! btw sorry for my bad English ;)
I think Seulgi power can be a thing such as super force or something like that. For Wendy’s power I have no idea but Joy can makes them disappearing too in the scene with Irene (5:37) she just does a hand gesture and the villain vanished
The “Bear Doll” you were referring to is actually a lore thing called “Reve” it’s supposed to symbol the fandom (I think) and he takes shape of different things. In Happiness (their debut song) he is a pink teddy bear, in Reve Festival Day 1-3 he is a robot, in FMR he’s the box head they have on in their teasers, in this cb he is a teddy bear again :)
The second one is actually a common Korean game called “the hibiscus flower has bloomed” or famously known as the similar game “Red Light Green Light” (if you know Squid Game)! 😊
I love how your so dedicated to understand the meanings behind the vdo and the lyrics most reaction vdos dont prepare so much. We really enjoy your content Jordan!!!
This is their first in the SMCU, previously it was speculated they were the red force that EXO fights in the battle of good and evil, but before they released the MV they set up some comics called the story of reve, and as it turns out they are dolls that he plays with and created out of himself, you see the psyco hallway, sappy car wash, they are basically in a candy land esque board game. And the goal is the party! So think of them as overpowered dolls because the settings and the mvs are from reve imagination, and they are just the dolls reve play with.
oh i didnt know that this was from the SMCU! but i still think they are somewhat villains in the theory, "monster" by seulgi and irene made me think they were also the black mamba from aespa videos
This was the most enjoyable reaction I've seen to a red velvet video. I'm not going to lie... I just go around watching to see who will gush over my Wendy but this was great 😍🤭💙💙💙
I like long shots, I wanna be able to see them instead of zoom past them really quick like what? lol I wanna appreciate their beauty and dance. especially when it comes to live performances.
@@Zelinkondorf well im a reveluv bcoz im so used to it now i dont find it weird anymore , for me its weird for them to do such as Beautiful christmas with aespa another weird group to have that concept Anyway stream Beautiful christmas it's so good , it's on repeat in my head
@@ZelinkondorfFor us, reveluvs, it's not so strange, I was already expecting this type of MV for birthday, so I wasn't surprised, however, I didn't think they would bring this type of concept right after feel my rhythm
"wasn't exactly what i was expecting for a song titled birthday" well, don't expect a normal birthday song if that artist is from sm ent. nct has 3 song with birthday on the title but it's different from your expectations😆
The music video was definitely weird and that's why I love it. Joy is also ❤🔥. I know that everyone focuses on the original visual Irene, but the heatwaves coming off of Joy were correct. She's a beautiful woman.
It's no red velvet where you won't see any violence bringing up in a most adorable way,, Jorden please React to Red Velvet's Zimzalabim and Seulgi's 28 reasons
They actually got past the yeti by playing "red light green light", that's also why the yeti only moved with them. The yeti got caught moving by Yeri an had to give them the key due to his loss.
Love this!!! Thank you, some of your deductions really helped explain some things to me. When I saw this video, I thought it was a reminder to all that, you may think we’re done and gone, but we’ll show you. Lol. Love this group!!!
I am so happy that the SMCU still continues!! I knew I HAD to watch this when I found out it was released. Thanks for always explaining everything, in such an easy and fun way to understand, love ur videos!!
I like the villain interpretation, because I remember when the SMCU was announced after aespa debuted and introduced the world of KWANGYA, fans speculated that some SM groups would be "heroes" and some would be "villains", and that Red Velvet would be "villains" 😂 This was thought up well before "Birthday" by Red Velvet dropped, so perhaps there are some parts of their discography that take on some darker undertones that give off a "villain" vibe!
I really love your reaction, it makes the viewers understand the music video more. It would be great if you react to BIBI-Animal Farm music video, the music and the video is very great
I have seen the music video so many times because I am a big fan of Red Velvet, but this is the first time I understand the meaning of the music video, thank you, you are a genius and Red Velvet are so creative
Red Velvet being weird has always been an essential element that makes them so great. Mainstream...but weird. So great. F(x) + SNSD birthed the most amazing group!
I feel like, as fun as the crazily edited MVs can be, there’s a tendency for some modern kpop mvs to rely fully on editing and visuals and not have much beyond that. So I love seeing music videos with more going on than that, which RV always gives me
Jordan you should definitely look into the SMCU (SM Cinematic Universe). According to theories, Red velvet are the villains and Seulgi is black mamba. So based off of this mv, I was thinking what if RV worships Seulgis aka Black mamba and summoned her to the party so they could get in because Seulgis representative animal is a bear and the bear in the mv symbolizes her. She's also the one who beats the gingerbread man so it makes sense. The party is probably Kwangya or an event hosted by the other SM groups which are apart of the universe and obviously didn't invite RV because they're evil. Kinda like a Sleeping Beauty situation 🤸♀️
Hi Jordan! Thanks for posting, was looking forward to your new video. If you don’t know what song to react to next, please try Bicycle by Chung Hua, it’s so crazy and I’m addicted. Would love to see you explain it, love you❤❤
Best to think of the key meaning as a world tour :) We saw Seoul, Manila, Paris, New York and Los Angeles. Looks like the girls are finally going on a big tour.
The yeti scene is a game! I belive it's called something like "the doll falls"? 1 player counts while all the others try to reach them. A player looses if they get caught moving when the counting player stops singing and turns around. The yeti didn't move, the girls cheated their way to get the key by blowing.
If im correct, the yeti scene is a popular slavic party game called „baba yaga”. So when she blew on him the hair moved and he moved so he lost, thats why they got the key
