Reason is an incredible song for us. I cry everytime I see them live singing it. When they are in concerts, Insomnia will change the sentence "We are always with Insomnia" we will say "We are always with Dreamcatcher" and they get emotional ❤
I’ve been watching your channel for about a year now, so happy that you’re reacting to Dreamcatcher again!! They’re my ult group! Glad you enjoyed listening to them! And I respect you even more now that you have been showing support for Palestine!! 🍉
Welcome back! You should definitely check out the It's Live performances for Bonvoyage & Justice. They also had b-sides on these albums that had choreo and a performance if you wanted to check those out. Demian was on the Apocalypse: From Us album with Bonvoyage Shatter was on the Villains album with OOTD 2 Rings was on the Virtuous album with Justice (this is a live showcase version and it has a 4k fixed cam video on their YT channel that's called "2 Rings Dreamcatcher Cam" )
Apologies for the wall of text. "Reason" is the fan-song for Dreamcatcher's 6th anniversary. I can't even begin to describe how proud I am of them. They're flexing their rock and vocal muscles, while all three rappers make an appearance. InSomnia might be lifting them up, but they should know, they are also carrying us. I wouldn't be surprised if the animations were done by a fan, I seem to recognize the style. Whoever did them, they did a great job. I see the book from the Nightmare arc, the mask from Scream, the gun from R.o.S.E Blue, the gagged bust from Boca, the cup from Odd Eye, the hand through the mirror from Good Night and the clock from Piri. Musically, I am in heaven. I'm a metalhead and I love the song. AND THAT RIFF! 🤘🎸 Obviously the song is an absolute anthem! "Bon Voyage" is the 3rd and final part of the Apocalypse trilogy, which is about the destruction of the environment by humanity. The members have mentioned that it is about giving nature a break. Any encounter between human beings always has separation attached to it as well, just as death is a part of life. SuA also said that the fluffy floating thing that Dami summons from her painting is a cell, representing nature. It has been named "Celly" and is adorable, right? My dark mind believes that they are saying "Have a good trip" to humanity, since we are well on our way of wiping ourselves out. It's like a breakup between humanity and the earth. Once humanity is gone, nature gets the break it needs and the circle will begin again. For me, the key to understanding the lyrics is that they are singing as human beings, not as a single person. And they are singing to nature, confessing their love and the realization that we are not good for nature and that it probably resents us. It could also be the other way round (them singing as mother nature to humanity). SuA jumping out after the dove seem to represent their desire for peace. The story of the MV seems to be that the rest of humanity has sheltered away under force fields after the apocalypse. This gives nature time to heal. Musically I can already say this is one of their best songs for me. The chorus slaps hard, and the variations between heavy and slow are just beautiful. It has emotion and impact at the same time. Putting JiU's sweet voice together with an acoustic guitar is simply genius. At first glance you could think OOTD is about them being proud and happy with themselves, about confidence. I don't think that is it though. The album is called VersuS VillainS, which makes me think it is not this simple. So I believe this song is meant as a criticism of narcissism, vanity, materialism and also (maybe) the fast fashion industry. "OOTD" stands for "Outfit of the Day" after all, maybe it's about useless instagram fashion-influencers posting videos of their outfit of the day, which also promotes fast fashion. The fact that fashion is moving ever faster makes it the most destructive industry to the planet only outdone by the fossil fuel industry. The Aral lake has all but disappeared because of the cotton industry for example. It would fit to the Villain image, and you can see in the MV that they are acting. It is shown in the scene where Yoohyeon and Handong are fighting, but then the camera is off and Handong helps Yoohyeon up. The main reason why I don't think it is about confidence or their own success is the line "Driving on the highway, drunken everyday, do you feel like a monster?" and the album title. That just doesn't fit. And there was the ymenehcra (arch enemy backwards) account posting about touching a crown is dangerous and other cryptic messages before the comeback. It could also be a big and well-hidden F*U to the Kpop industry, like the Nightmare arc probably was. The narcissism and materialism is definitely criticized here, and Dreamcatcher have been criticized a lot themselves because of their rock/metal concept, while other groups have been celebrated for using a guitar riff once in a song. And Handong standing in front of the camera with bruises all over her legs seems to be a comment on the merciless industry as well. The music is highly interesting as well. The Rock is dirty and distorted. The song structure is not what you'd expect at all, for me it is funk rock meets K-Pop. Not their usual spiel, but a very good progression. It takes a couple of listens to really appreciate it. Justice is part two of a two-part series, the first one is OOTD, which intentionally sounds very differently. Just like ymenehcra for OOTD, an account named 9mynameis1 has been posting messages before the comeback. She posted that her seven friends became obsessed with the crown and have not been responding anymore, which corresponds with the secret diary Siyeon is reading. The text there reads "How are you? I'm worried because you aren't replying." So what we are seeing here is the seven friends (Dreamcatcher) getting rid of their obsession with the crown (materialism, narcissism ) by literally destroying it, which makes their friend rejoin them (there is an eighth person joining them near the end). There is also a lot of imagery about death and legendary figures like Valkyries or greek goddesses and legends. Reddit user PaintMeYaBasic has managed to identify these paintings in the MV: Hero by Edward Burne-Jones (from the tale of Hero and Leander), Valkyrie and a Dying Hero by Hans Makart, Hero and Leander by Salvator Rosa and finally "Justice" by Kenyon Cox in the center back. In the tale of Hero and Leander from Greek mythology, Hero is actually a priestess of Aphrodite (Venus in the Roman myths), so that is not the same as the hero who is taken from the battlefield by a Valkyrie in the other painting. But OOTD has the line "I'm Venus, Nephthys, call me a Goddess". It is likely there is a connection. While OOTD was about falling for the temptations of modern life and a satire on narcissism (especially influencers and fast fashion), I believe Justice is telling us to fight those temptations for a better world. It is a call to become a warrior for good in the world and fight the materialism that seems to be the most important thing for so many people in the developed countries. You can see JiU break the bonds that hold her down, and we should do the same. Please note that this is just my interpretation. Art can be interpreted in different ways, and other opinions are just as valid as mine. There are also many references to their older MVs in this. The paintings also have a deeper meaning in Chase me, there is a sword in Deja Vu and Scream, the bite into the apple is a callback to BEcause and the tree to the Dystopia trilogy - and so on. There are many more. The 8th figure in the end could also be JiU from Deja Vu, finally breaking the cycle of violence and leading to justice. Musically, I love the song. The guitars in the pre-chorus and chorus are pure heaven (just like Dongie with her wings). It has the right amount of heaviness for me, and it is an anthem and a call to action. I also love that they shortened the pre-chorus by two bars in the second half, throwing us into the chorus early. Justice is a brilliant, epic release, showing everyone that a group can still produce fantastic music and MVs after seven and a half years.
Don't be sorry. We're happy you're reacting back to DC. Like we (DC members and Insomnias) always say: take care of yourself first, health and morale are more important. We'll still be there for more of your reactions. As you said, they always serve and after the win with "Maison", I noticed they gain even more confidence and all members can now belt and take care of beautiful high notes (Handong even replaced Siyeon for the first chorus of "Justice" during her absence). You should check "Justice" live performances to be even more amazed with their Live amaze and stable vocals. Thanks for the reaction 🙏
Thank you for coming back to react Dreamcatcher! DC have actually been in Finland 2 times, first was back in 2019 and the second time was this year and it was on Dami's birthday (March 7th). I recommend watching: It's Live version of Justice, it's amazing. And if you want to know the girls better then i recommend "This is... series" from Insomnicsy channel.
Three things: 1. There's lots of lore for Dreamcatcher mvs, especially "OOTD" and "Justice," which are connected through a very elaborate ARG. 2. If you like choreography, I highly recommend "OOTD" dance practice. 3. I also recommend the "Justice" dancEAR performance video, you'll want to hear how they sing those high notes live! 😊

Yeah! It's definitely meant to suggest that if you listen to the album, the intro it's in there and it's an artificial 'robot' voice! Just great lore all around with that release
No worries, youll get to dreamcatcher when you can. If you take recommendations, id check out "Propose". Its one of their B-sides, but i feel like its an "anthem" type song and one of my favorites. Lyric videos are a thing, of course, but there is also a showcase performance with choreo, as well as a really good radio live. Also... Makes sense you recognize Handong so much :P did you see the Handong and Zhang Hao Justice short?
Nepp, tyvärr har de aldrig kommit till Sverige. De spelade i Helsingfors 2024-03-07. Finns till och med nån vlog från deras besök. Vi får hoppas att de kommer till Sverige nästa gång.
I would also like you to react to Xikers my favorite boy group with Ateez they are both from the same agency I recommend Tricky House, Do Or Die, Witch and Bittersweet looking forward to seeing your reaction 😆🤩✨

Welcome back!
You should definitely check out the It's Live performances for Bonvoyage & Justice.
They also had b-sides on these albums that had choreo and a performance if you wanted to check those out.
Demian was on the Apocalypse: From Us album with Bonvoyage
Shatter was on the Villains album with OOTD
2 Rings was on the Virtuous album with Justice (this is a live showcase version and it has a 4k fixed cam video on their YT channel that's called "2 Rings Dreamcatcher Cam" )
Maison was their first win (and second win, it won twice). And then the next year, Bonvoyage also won twice

Just realize that the part of OOTD's pre-chorus sound like robot or AI, a bit choppy...'OOTD This My Fashion, Shut Up No More Question'
Yeah! It's definitely meant to suggest that if you listen to the album, the intro it's in there and it's an artificial 'robot' voice! Just great lore all around with that release
thats a orange shield they activated

Ketchup, it's a miracle
No worries, youll get to dreamcatcher when you can. If you take recommendations, id check out "Propose". Its one of their B-sides, but i feel like its an "anthem" type song and one of my favorites.
