One thing I really think about with Soyeon’s scene where she’s on display rapping, as well as Shuhua right after with the statues, they’re both representing “pretty things” that are quite literally being objectified for public consumption. 🫢
You're pretty close when you said that it sounds like a showtune. The sample they use for the chorus is from the opera "Carmen" a story about a gypsy woman who sings and dances to seduce a police officer to get herself and her friends out of trouble until things go wrong and he gets obsessed with her and ends up killing her. It's just another layer that makes this song really cool. Soyeon did an amazing job.
This comeback left me shocked!! It was sooo goood and I loved how every member got a chance to shine! The concept was amazing and unlike most concepts recently in kpop! I think this is one of their best!!! 🫢❤️❤️❤️
i agree 100% this was such a unique concept and it was truly a showstopper 🥰 despite how serious the subject is there is something refreshing about seeing it talked about and visualized!
It took me ages to find out about yeppi yeppi. Apparently it's is a slang, diminutive form of "pretty" and kind of means "pretty thing" or" pretty little one" and it's not usually applied to people but is quite a common name for pets
@@lnak.mp4 This concept was also inspired by betty boop (idk much about the character) but she's kinda like marilyn, and she has this thing "yip yip yippie" thing, if you search you will see something related, I think they used it and change to put their signature as idols from korea (yeppo word)
@@jamescurfman3284 yes i was just thinking this! i did see the person above was right there was a song called yip yip yippy but i’d be willing to bet her boop bop bedop was also an inspo :)
@@lnak.mp4 That would be really fun to find out. How much do these ladies know about all the cultures around the world for them to collectively be able to put a bunch of references like that all together here? It's really remarkable. :)
For the album, "nude" is the culmination of the story even though it's the first track. You have to listen to the songs in reverse order (Starting with "Dark") for the full meaning.
the part with "Yeppi Yeppi" is a reference to Betty Boop, and probably a song she sang called "yippie yi yo". Soyeon had already confirmed that there would be references to her as well, in addition to Marylin and Banksy, which she leaves a message confirming at the end of the MV.
The members: Miyeon She is the oldest, main vocalist, and (unofficial?) visual She is Korean She sings the first part of the first pre chorus She trained at YG and almost debuted with Blackpink She made her solo debut in April with the mini album MY She also released a lot of OSTs She made her acting debut in 2021 and has done multiple acting projects since She wrote the lyrics for one entire song named Rain in her mini album Minnie She is the main vocalist She is Thai She sings the first verse (with the Yeppi Yeppi part) She is friends with Sorn and Blackpink’s Lisa She released a few OSTs She made her acting debut in 2021 with the Netflix sitcom ‘So not worth it’, which features other kpop idols too She writes and composes many many songs for the group Soyeon She is the leader, main rapper, vocalist and lead dancer She is Korean She is the one who starts off the song and does the rap part She went on Produce 101 and Unpretty rapstar, and released two solo songs before their debut She wrote the lyrics for Nxde by herself, and participated in the production of almost every (g)i-dle song out there She released a mini album in 2021 She looks very fierce and scary on stage but she is actually introverted and kind She is the pillar of (g)i-dle and basically made the group and came up with their name Yuqi (pronounced Oo-gi) She is the lead vocalist, main dancer and lead rapper She is Chinese She sings the second part of the first prechorus She produces a lot of songs for the group too She has a really deep voice that she used to hate She speaks Korean really well, which makes some people believe that she is Korean She made her solo debut with a single album in 2021 She is the loudest member Shuhua She is the maknae, vocalist and visual She is Taiwanese She sings the first part of the second prechorus She used to not have many lines as she was not confident, but always got the killing part She has more lines now and could also be considered as a part of the dance line because she improved a lot She is one of the funniest idols in kpop She has a really unique voice, Soyeon says that it sounds like the mix of all of their voices together She calls out haters on V-lives a lot Soojin (former member) She was the main dancer, vocalist and sub-rapper She is Korean She was kicked out of the group because of false bullying accusations She is a very good dancer She is shy She is Shuhua’s favorite member She deserves justice Their fandom name is Neverland Their name means: G - Means Girl, was added because the name ‘Idle’ didn’t work I - Unique individuals DLE - 들, pluriel mark in Korean So basically they are unique girls I hope this comment helped! If you have any question you can ask me.
In being the Pillar of (_)I-DLE, Soyeon is also the Pillar of Cube Entertainment. That company will crumble, go under, bankrupt the instant she leaves.
you can say 'idle' or 'g-idle' without fear of judgment. whatever you prefer. people shouldn't try to correct you on this. the girls will go by either depending if the audience is domestic or international. btw thank you for the reaction this song is insane. the album is totally worth listening to!
The lyrics of this song reminds me of Chanmina’s “Bijin” music video. The music video is a hybrid of Chanmina’s Bijin and Dahlia songs. I hope you check it out or react to it.

Yeppi 단어는 사람 이름 보다, 애완용 동물등으로 많이 쓰입니다...상징적 이름으로 해석하면 됩니다.
부정적 이미지가 아닌, 아기등도 쓰일수 있는 아주 귀여워하는 대상을 지칭할 때 사용됩니다.
looove this reaction, also you’re so genuine ily
thank u sm!
Nice reaction, I think this song is so powerful and so beautiful... they are daring and I love that
This song is masterpiece...periodt
You need to learn more about them; they are the cutting edge of the industry.
