The original song is a from a 1st gen kpop group called H.O.T (also an SM Group) from 1996. The outfits were a reference to the og mv as well. The song is super famous so I'm not supposed you recognized it a bit, it's been covered by NUMEROUS idols over the years. And Dream's version is less a cover and more a remake because the rap verse before the 2nd chorus is pretty different. Love this song and performance a lot! I wish you guys noticed more of the lyrics because it's hilariously about wanting to break up with someone, but I understand how the cuteness and fun distracted you lol Have fun seeing Dream live btw! I saw them live in the The Dream Show 2 last year (as well as 127 during The Link tour) and they were absolutely amazing, you're gonna have a blast!
Actually, the rap verse before the 2nd chorus is also in the original song. They just switched up the tempo and separated it from the vocal Chenle part, unlike in the original where the rap was being done overlapping the vocal part.
NCT-Dream's "Candy" is a remake of the iconic song "Candy" by SM's very first Idol group H.O.T. in 1996. Therefore, the NCT-Dream members' "crazy" outfits and a large part of the choreography are meant to be a homage to H.O.T.'s original version. If you look up H.O.T's original MV, you will see all the similarities in NCT-Dream's MV. NCT-Dream's version takes the iconic, nostalgic style of H.O.T.'s song and adds in modern elements to update it for the new century. H.O.T., which stands for High-five Of Teenager, is the very first Kpop idol boy group and they are the very first group to gain international superstardom. H.O.T was active from 1996-2000. They are the group that helped create the Kpop industry and they are the reason why SM and Lee SooMan is considered the founder of everything Kpop related. H.O.T was the group that created almost everything we know of as part of Kpop today, from fan clubs to fan club names, fan chants to fan colors, international fandoms and crazy, super loyal fans that learn everything there is to know about their favorite groups. H.O.T was also the first group to have an international member, Tony Ahn, who is Korean-America. "Candy" is one of H.O.T's most iconic songs, and literally every new group, both boy groups and girl groups, learn the song and choreography and they perform it on music programs as one of their rookie performances. I doubt you could find a kpop artist -- or even a Korean of any age -- who doesn't know H.O.T.'s "Candy." That is why NCT-Dream's MV is so meaningful for anyone who knows the song's history and one of the reasons why it has quickly become so popular. Kangta, the main vocalist of H.O.T., is still with SM Entertainment -- he is now a solo artist, vocal coach, music producer, actor, radio DJ, etc. -- and he is a member of SM's board of directors. H.O.T's original song is about being addicted to a girl like a piece of candy. Even though you want to break up with her and stop seeing her, she keeps luring you back in with her sweetness and beauty. Like your favorite candy, you can't give her up, no matter how hard you try. As you can see, NCT-Dream's version of the song reinterprets the song and gives it a different meaning.
NCT Dream having sooo much fun when performing this song. They modify some parts of choreo as they like during concerts, which is something that fans looking forward to 🙌🏻🙌🏻
love this song so much but im partial to the original! hope you have the time to listen to it. the original group is H.O.T :) they are also SM and one of the first kpop groups if not the first (but dont hold me to that cause im not 100% sure)
@@havok97818 oh I see. I didn't know about it. The last time I heard about him was when he called out a saseang . Hope he gets better. He definitely is my most favourite member out of all nct
FYI...this is a remake of a H.O.T(an older SM boygroup) song... from back in 1996. that wrong spelling of Chenle is an old inside joke from way back when they spelled his name wrong.😅 Btw this is a break up song...its just too cheerful til u read the lyrics.
The hat Chenle is wearing in the MV says Chanel because it's a hat from the famous French brand! Chenle's name is written on the green shirt, but you two didn't notice! Please react to: Sorting NCT Dream from Lawful Good to Chaotic Evil
