Guys. Please be aware I'm trying to follow a foreign language subtitles, the narrative of the video and who's doing what without knowing who's who yet, all upon the first watch. I'm going to get things wrong. And that's ok.
Don’t stress if you miss something! I think most people enjoy making corrections to help others learn for the future, not to criticize. That said, it can get frustrating when people constantly point out pronunciation mistakes 😭😭. When I correct things or add extra context, it’s just because I’m passionate and love analyzing music videos and music in general. Even if no one reads my comment, lol!! I think that’s why people tend to get so hyper-focused and eager to share extra details and pronunciation. they’re excited about what they care about but can come off rude and abrasive. i’ve noticed this in kpop and anime especially. fans can be a lot.
Soyeon (So-yahn, not See-yahn) wrote this. Same sex relationships are taboo in Korea. Society says homosexuality is a mental defect. G(I)-dle says that all types of love should be celebrated. "No matter what people say... fall in love". This is one interpretation of the song. Each member portrays an aspect of a temptress, the tempted, or the divine. This is the interpretation that I prefer.
Again I've watched like three videos and don't know Korean. Bear with me on pronunciation.
@@zack_reacts I'm bearing... just trying to help!
Soyeon did write this. It's very much about the experience I'd being in love with someone that society tells you that you are not allowed to love. Soyeon has said it shouldn't be about a particular gender. They did release an English language version (no MV sadly) and it is incredibly sapphic.
Soyeon saying Oh My God will always give me CHILLS
Not mental health. Just pure "Love freedom". If you girl, it's absolutely normal be in love with other girl.
We start the music video with minnie being dragged in a white space that looks clinical and devoid of color, then quite literally CRAWLING to a passageway in the wall that leads into the next scene which is starkly in contrast to the white and full of so much color. like night and day. then the beat kicks in, and finally an almost royal ethereal-looking yuqi appears. everything looks full and so lively. it’s minnie yearning to be in a world full of color which this girl who ‘showed her all the stars’ gave to her. her wanting to fall deeper into this love that’s so colorful. it’s basically a fantasy. she clearly wants nothing more than to get out of this white stained clean almost hospital-like place. running from these guard looking figures with black handprints and black splatter all over them. i think these guards/figures are supposed to represent society, and this white space is supposed to respect a mental hospital. being queer used to be seen as a mental illness, and usually being out in society can sometimes feels like you have some kind of sickness or something deadly wrong with you that needs to be purified. but clearly the guards/figure are the ones with black handprints splattered on their plain white outfits, and minnie is in pure white. they’re the ones who are de purifying her. and in the end minnie is corrupted BY the guards/figures. the whole music video minnie is shown in this room going crazy trying to get away from these figures, stuck in this white room/prison. but if you pay attention, about a quarter of the way through, she takes her fingers and makes a gun motion and shoots herself. bang. a few seconds later you can see her leaking blood on the floor and another few seconds a clip shows her with bloody nose. i think her character arc in the music video is supposed to show that too much repression can sully a person, and make them so alone the only way they could think of getting out is killing themselves. and that she could never truly accept herself, and was left in the mud, the same place she was trying to save herself from, the same place the people in white spent the whole music video trying to drag her away from.
after a clip of minnie in the white room, then we get soyeons rap, which is i think, a difference between someone stuck trying to repress themselves(minnie) and someone who is embracing themself and saying they’re fine with sin if they get to be together with the one they love(soyeon).
they’re meant to represent the different sides of the same coin.
remember, the only two members who were ever in that white room and the only members who started out in that white room were soyeon and minnie. one got out, one stayed in, they both ended in the same exact place, and were again the only members in the mud/blood in the end. soyeon was smiling and smearing it on herself, minnie was stuck trying to escape and hating herself for it. here are a few lyrics from the rap that i think describe minnie in that room, and soyeon remembering what it was like there in the beginning:
“The self-control and moderation you gave me
“Have torn into pieces in the dark black hole”
“It's unable to control, like sugar-coated drugs”
i think that says it all😭😭 that’s just my interpretation, many people have many different interpretations and ideas, but i think even that this music video was even made and that soyeon fought for it makes me so proud no matter what the real truth is. the video was so incredibly intentional that i can’t believe anything other than that the meaning was intentional, too. especially when soyeon said this in an interview about why she was so set on the ‘she’ pronouns:
“I just write what's on my mind.
i didn't want to limit that 'she' to a certain being or a certain definition, so it's open to anything.
all kinds of love are valuable and must be respected.”
gonna shed a tear my queen knows her core audience 🥹😭🥲
i was a bit confused about the red and the implication of hell in the end, but when you actually look into how korean society sees and operates around lesbians you understand. it’s a completely different culture around it and this video was made years ago when it was even worse. just a year earlier gidle got into a controversy where they were ridiculed by knetizens(knetizens is what they call korean citizens that are the main fanbase for all kpop and not specific fandoms. so basically just all of korea) for kissing each other on stage after winning an award. they got in hot shit for just kissing each other on the cheek as a celebration and this song was released a year later. coincidental? maybe? maybe not, but worth mentioning!! but that’s just to say it’s pretty bad and the fact this video came out is crazy as there’s a big don’t ever speak about it just will it away culture.korea is pretty conservative and even the mention of it is pretty taboo. even though it’s slowly getting better especially in recent years and i’m glad idols have gotten a lot more comfortable, they couldn’t have become comfortable without the generation of kpop idols who spoke out and really took risky steps for lgbtq+ people in korea. the first ones that come to mind are sistar and GLAM, park jungmin, song ji eun, K.Will, and of course Holland!!! and all the other kpop idols and popular actors and shows that took steps to normalize it and especially HUMANIZE IT. and that’s just half the fight. a lot of what kpop idols and actors do don’t translate into regular living. it’s just art and special cases. it’s the same with the clothes they wear and almost everything else.
i did a bit of research of what it’s like to be a lesbian in korea, and the general consensus is that it’s extremely hard, one quora user said:
“People point, stare, laugh, and whisper. Moms will shield their children's eyes and the elderly will shake their heads in contempt.
Churchgoers approaching us and:
Beginning to pray
Telling us we're going to hell
Shouting at us
Hitting us with their Bible (true story)
Schoolgirls taking photos of us to "show their friends later”
Street vendors refusing to sell food to us
Mothers telling their children "study hard or you'll become a homo"
It's bad enough that my family disowned me for dating a woman (which is a common occurrence by the way), I don't need my entire country to treat me like I'm diseased.”
(this was an anonymous poster, she should be the first post that pops up when you search “what is it like to be a lesbian in korea” on google. this is just the one i picked because i thought her wording was beautiful. she seems like a wonderful soul.)
i think that’s all!! i only focused on two characters gidle showed in the music video but there’s so much more nitty gritty about this music video that i could literally interpret it in like five different ways for hours. these two were just the first to stand out ❤️❤️
goddamn. im sorry for the fucking essay this is my first day taking adhd meds💋❤️😭 i’m obviously having trouble figuring out when to stop. love the vid
Thank you for your reaction!
(G)i-dle are incredible, i love them so much. Soyeon is such a genius: she wrote and produced all the title tracks and most of the b-sides. I highly recommend listening to their albums, not just the title tracks (if not for a reaction, then for yourself). Their company is pretty bad at their job, so the girls do most of the things themselves. In one of their recent interviews, Soyeon said that she did everything from writing, producing, recording the songs to choosing the concept, outfits, ideas for the videos and even nail art. So they are real diamonds in the K-pop industry! I recommend to watch (this is in chronological order since debut):
latata;
hann;
senorita;
put it straight (nightmare version, performance on queendom);
uh-oh;
lion;
dumdi dumdi;
hwaa;
last dance;
never stop me;
my bag (dance practice video);
villain dies (any of live performances, it’s really good track);
dark(x-file);
allergy (queencard backstory);
I do;
I want that;
wife;
fate;
super lady;
revenge (highly recommend);
klaxon;
bloom;
last forever.
Also Soyeon and Miyeon are part of the group k/da from league of legends, you can watch Pop/stars; More. I personally really love Soyeon’s solo album, there is a video for the title track Beam Beam and a live video for Is this bad b**** number?. But I also highly recommend watching the live performance of Psycho from their tour (I am free-ty 2023, the video is in good quality and well filmed). And finally, I recommend their killing voice, it’s amazing! So sorry for the long comment (and for my English), but I just love them so much and want as many people as possible to know about these talented girls❤
I love your reactions and interpretations, from what I know song is mostly about struggle with love feelings, but what you said absolutely makes sense as well. And that's great, when songs are not easy everyone can see them in their own way.
Cant want for more Gidle content!
Lol yes they change their appearances so frequently, and they look amazing in so many different ways!
Is this a skill they as a culture just have? Do they learn this in school?
I am half kidding, but I don’t see this variety in appearances in so many people in any other cultures. It’s like they get a +5 to makeup on their base stats 😂
this video, make me a fan....
I actually think the drop in howling is a sister to this omg drop. Gidle honestly has pioneered gg for what 7 yrs now. They are fully autonomous and now all the solos have been successful and Soyeon is THE idol in my opinion.
(G)I-DLE ❤️🔥🫶🌹😍
Great 😁👍
💜💜💜
U stopped the video on the most important part: Soyeon licking the barbwire....😢😭😭😭
