Cheongbaji means jeans but it's also an acronym for "Youth is now" Cheongchun - youth Baru - is Jigum - now So double entendre yes 😅 They stylize it as CBZ because sometimes they write Z instead of J like Woozi. Also, the disclaimer at the beginning is because they planned an election concept but because of recent political events in South Korea, it was a bit risky lol
Their comeback concept is related to polls and election, coincidentally last month when they’re supposed to start releasing teasers, the political situation in SK is quite chaotic (ends up with the president getting impeached, i think). hence the disclaimer at the start of the video. They used an acronym of Cheongchuneun Baro Jigeum (Youth is right now) -> Cheongbaji (literally means Jeans). So it’s not related to NewJeans at all 😄
Yes, this. It just so happened that there was a lot of political events especially for the past months in S.Korea. The latest was being the protests of citizens which led to impeachment of the President (and after few days, the impeachment of the acting-President).
부석순 2nd Single Album ‘𝙏𝙀𝙇𝙀𝙋𝘼𝙍𝙏𝙔’ Title Track 청바지 stands for 청춘은 바로 지금 (Cheongchun-eun Baro Zigeum) Its a commonly used abbreviated word which means "YOUTH IS RIGHT NOW" you've probably heard this in any kdrama (it sounds weird in english doesn't it) Hence the english name being CBZ[Prime time]. But but also the word 청바지 (cheong-baji) is an existing korean word which means jeans pants 👖 so you see this emoji beside the tracklist. The pre caution in the video stating this was filmed before and they didn't predict something was due to what happened in the korean government. ( hope this helped ❤)
I think many ppl already explained about the Korean meaning of CBZ. I just want to add one more point, BSS is a group which always trying to portrait the current situation & generation in Korea. And many details can be difficult to understand for non-Korean, however they really focus on describing the young gen Korean at the same time cheering for them. That is why their songs are widely known in Korea, in fact more than SVT by mass audiences.
Prime time refers to being in your prime= youth. Hence the double meaning of CBZ= jeans/ youth is right now They're saying that anyone can be youthful, not just people in their teens and twenties. just don your jeans and go (like saying 'let your hair down')
As seungkwan ult I can’t escape him im always attacked by him no matter what he’s doing and this video was the death of me so welcome to the club lol ALSO WHAT AN AMAZING COMEBACK. Literally couldn’t ask for anything more from BSS they are everything.
The concept is all about election and stuff and the main reason why they need to put that before the mv is because the president of skr announced a martial law which was dissolved the same day it was announced. idk if the president got impeached already or its processing.
funny thing is the Pledis CEO really is pledis_boss and Seungkwan made his pledis_boos to parody that but then he sometimes accidentally gets contacted with things that are meant for pledis_boss
I recommend you watch the promo videos. They explain the theme of youth. They also have the political campaign, which is the reason for the disclaimer.
Cuz is not new jeans. It just a concept. I don’t mean to say they don’t like new jeans or something. It’s just u can relate it with new jeans but it particularly isn’t too deep or references. CBZ means blue jeans and in Korean it can mean ‘youth is now ‘ or something.

Cheongchun - youth
Baru - is
Jigum - now
So double entendre yes 😅

Seriously, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve scroll past seungkwan’s post and wonder why am I following pledis ceo 😅
CBZ is abbreviation of CheongBaJi/Jeans which stands for Cheongchuneun Baro Jigeum means Youth is Right Now
All 3 songs from BSS new album are so good
Thank you for reacting to bss seventeenn, they're soo goodd😭😭🤍🤍🤍💌

BSS 👖✨
4:40 Those are their real life Instagram handles! 😂
My bias in this unit is BSS
WOHOOOO
11:52 I think it was Ready to Love mv
Cuz is not new jeans. It just a concept. I don’t mean to say they don’t like new jeans or something. It’s just u can relate it with new jeans but it particularly isn’t too deep or references.
CBZ means blue jeans and in Korean it can mean ‘youth is now ‘ or something.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
00:58 It's nothing to do with New Jeans. The disclaimer was added due to the current political unrest and what has been going on with the government.
WHOOOOOOOOOO!
Also, Zengkwan?
Ready to Love MV was the first time you got hit with sexy Seungkwan.
There's about jeans but of course not about New Jeans that's why they put the disclaimer.
Re Seungkwan, I think it might've been Ready to Love. 😅
Came for the BSS reaction, stayed for the Robbie Williams slander
Zeungkwan 😂😂😂😂
Zeungkwan 😂
❤
the disclaimer is all connected to the political chaos in South Korea atm
not zeungkwan 🤣
Definitely an ear worm for me.
CBZ is Cheongbaji. Which just means "jeans". As you guys pretty much figured out
Zeungkwan is taking me out
