The ending scene with Yeri firing the crossbow I actually view as part of the act of giving the delivery boy false hope, as you can see the bolt flying past him as he's running. She might have missed deliberately. He also has a bleeding cut on his face from that point on, and maybe the bolt clipped his face.
That's what i thought as well, she misses the shot deliberately to give him false hope and when he thinks he's safe one of the members get out of the car and kill him, they're literally toying with their prey before finally killing him.
ohhh that makes sense! maybe that's why during the training session they have a member as the target so they can practice their skill at not hitting them but getting it just past them
You also notice that Seulgi, when she was with Irene, had a cut on her face from the razor. I think it's foreshadowing because even though Seulgi has the cut she isn't dead yet- Irene could easily slit her throat from her position. And then who's the most likely culprit who killed the pizza boy? The only girl who had her hair in a ponytail the entire time? Irene.
Woah you caught it so quickly! Other reactors are always said "why they always trying to kill each other" at the beginning but no, you assumed "they training how to kill" good job! You're absolutely right. You're explained the mv very well and thank your for reacted this mv. This song is catchy, joy is so sexy here 😍
ceoyeri hello im sorry for doing this but is it ok if u also check out mines? i know its annoying but im just a small account trying to make friends. thank you
“I’ve actually never heard a non-title track by Red Velvet..” THAT STATEMENT CRUSHED MY SOUL. Let us know if you ever decide to go check out some b-sides! Would love to hear your thoughts.
That was by far the best explanation of the video I've seen! I bow down to your film expertise, I like film noir, Steven King and Hitchcock, and your explanation pulls it all together here! :) I'm getting more appreciation of this MV every time, it could turn out to be one of my favorite RV songs (although beating Happiness would be an amazing achievement!) Thank you! :)
Hello! :) Yes, I think the Producer is one of the smartest, most focused reactors; and KM United I like because they have curvier girls than kpop, I especially like my blue-haired queen, and their 'scary' doll! :) I think the doll is a fun concept, I'd like to see more of it.
Usually I don't like dark concepts but every dark concept by SM I love. I haven't been able to get into Red Velvet until this album and I love the retro vibe. The teaser for PeekABoo and Atta Boy were my favorite and after listening to the album they're definitely my favorites. I was shocked to hear so many slow tracks on this album as well but my favorite songs/album by them so far!
red velvet has a ton of good non title tracks on their albums, one of the not many groups where i dont dislike a single song of theirs! besides all the songs from the new album i recommend: - body talk from rookie album - zoo from red flavor album - some love from russian roulette album - cool hot sweet love from the velvet album - honestly the whole the red album and the whole ice cream cake album - also would u which is an sm station song and wish tree which is a christmas single i believe
Yes, Body Talk has such genuine emotion to it that it makes me tear up even though I don't speak Korean. And Automatic, oh gosh, Automatic. Try not to get turned off by the video, it's odd. But the song is gorgeous. From the new album my faves are KINGDOM COME and I also like "I just" and Bwa/look.
This song is the perfect combo of their Red and Velvet sides (probably why their album is Perfect Velvet)! I love their more eerie songs, but it is also upbeat in a way which ugh it's just amazing! In the ending scene, I love how they added the missing delivery boy poster. Definitely one of my fav tracks from them and the album is amazing too!
Wow i'm actually really happy you figured out the MV correctly XD Most reactors seem to not know what's going on or they think RV is killing each other over this boy like in Russian Roulette. Also pretty sure the RV fanbase loves this song (myself included). It would be awesome if you did a first listen to this album! The songs are all so unique and different from each other and it would be cool to hear your opinions on them! Red Velvet is known to have awesome B sides so I would recommend you go back and give some a listen. The Russian Roulette album in particular has some amazing songs.
Oh totally! I love all their stuff which makes choosing a favorite that much harder XD To me, RR has a lot of musically interesting songs like Lucky Girl and Some Love so that's why I recommended he start with that one since he said he wasn't a big fan of their earlier stuff :)
your theory is basicly what I thought but as for one of the members saving him I thought it was their "good" spirit helping him get away because as soon as it hits midnight their "hunter selves" takes over.
Ador kable this is really late but the fact that one member who was “saving” him kept changing, he was hallucinating from the jello he ate and had that false hope that he got away safely thanks to that “one member”
I love Red Velvets aesthetics, concepts and songs. Almost all of their videos are extremely well done and thought through, heavy with symbolism and imagery. Add to that their quirky, creepy and unique songs... just amazing.
Best Description yet/ever of this music video, I think you nailed it perfectly, and the best so far out of everyone else's reactions. I do suggest you check out their other albums though, there is good music in there.
Here's my theory that I commented on a separate explanation video: Maybe after so many murders (at least 28, judging from that last payphone part), perhaps the girls had slowly fallen out of it, and began questioning their actions. I feel like their first murders were probably much more precise and quick, and didn't even require them to get out of their house, unlike this murder. In the back of their minds, each member might've secretly wanted the boy to escape and just live his life (explaining the shots of each member running out with him), but they all individually decided that the plan had to be carried out, or else they would most likely be ratted out and arrested. The members clearly let him get away long enough to drive out and reach a public payphone (which was already risky enough, since any passerby in the public could've called the police, helped him get to safety, etc). I think that Irene may have snuck into the car and promised the other 4 girls that she would finish him off, even though in her heart she wanted him to actually escape. The other 4 members feel the same way though, so they trust her to handle the boy by herself. While in the car, she makes a deal with the pizza boy. When he gets to the payphone, if he can find and call someone for help within a few minutes, she'll let him go without any complaints. If he fails to do so, she'll have no choice but to kill him. At the end, Irene gets out of the car and the pizza boy turns around in a way that he's not so surprised, as he is scared. This explains why Irene only comes out after the call fails, and also why the boy shortly glances back after shaking his head when the unavailable call voice message pops up. You can see this at 4:10. Some might interpret this as just him being anxious that the girls could've followed him if he had gotten drugged by the jello and didn't notice that Irene was in the car with him, but you can see that when he approaches the payphone, he keeps his eyes relatively on it, instead of looking around behind him. He's too afraid to look back at Irene in the car, and only does when the call fails. For me, this MV was pretty reminiscent of stalker TV shows and movies I've watched, so it would be understandable if the plot is about a 5-member murder pact slowly falling out of their original polish!
Your theory was pretty much dead on....also don't forget at the beginning of the video when they're all in the room asleep it's like they are tired from all of the training they've done and the hunt. Also how they train by having one member as a target on that seat but they miss each time, but they hit the apple perfectly, it's like they train to miss even though they are perfect shots... Also about their side tracks...DO IT honestly Red Velvet is very well known for as well having AMAZING B side tracks as well. My favorites from this album are, My Second Date, I Just, and Attaboy. However this was a Velvet centered comeback so most of the songs on the album will be slower and more R&B influenced. The Red Summer's side tracks are all actually REALLY good so I would suggest giving all of their albums a listen, maybe you'll find songs in them that catch you and make you finally Stan them 😊
I can even give you my personal favorites from each album of the songs I like so you don't have to go through forever, but I mainly like their Red Songs but I do appreciate their Velvet songs as well.
i totally agree, i also think this is red velvet's best title track in my opinion. if you haven't listened to their non title tracks i really suggest you do because they make beautiful music! most of their title tracks are their red side and personally even though i love their red side i prefer their velvet side. so don't miss out of their amazing music i suggest you listen to automatic (my personal favorite), one of these nights, and cool hot sweet love (just to name a few).
Love the MV. So cinematic. AHS + Hitchcock + a lot of cultish b-movie feel. I appreciate that. Wasn’t really a big fan of RV, but really start to dig SM’s branding of Red Velvet. There’s something very eerie in their sweetness, in the songs and in the MVs (take Russian Roulette, rookie for example, they can be read as really dark social critique). This uncanniness at the core of RV artistic image and sound makes them stand out to me. And I feel the same about their choreography. There’s something really awkward and unnatural in their choreographies (most done by Kyle Hanagami) that just make the dances really refreshing.
I love hearing Reacttothek's and your meaning about songs. I get a view on both the videoproducing and the musical part. It makes me appreciate some songs so much😁
I loved this song a lot. Dumb dumb instrumentally was an AMAZING song too. Other songs you should check out is automatic, red dress, happily ever after, lucky girl etc. Their non-title tracks are absolutely breathtaking trust me
I really liked the mv, I also caught some fairytale vibe...like red riding hood/hansel and gretel Just like Grimms stories, where they have that fine line between cute/childrens tale x creepy
A friend has a theory that the girls are like 21st century mermaids, and I like this. I loved your way of analyzing the music video, it's what we already thought with our fellow Reveluvs ! It's kind of between a teen horror movie and a fantasy horror tale. As for the song itself, yay, it's definitely one of their best ! ♥ It's always interesting to have your point of view, I waited for it and I'm not disappointed, thanks ! And the album is really as good as the titletrack. Hope you enjoy it ~
V1ncent Draven hello im sorry for doing this but is it ok if u also check out mines? i know its annoying but im just a small account trying to make friends. thank you
I have to agree with you. I have also been trying to find a red velvet song that I like. It is not that their previous title tracks have been bad, they just have not been my style. I am very particular with my girls groups, I don't like a lot of Korean Girl groups because I tend to not like the girly style. This is the first Red Velvet song that I love and I have also listened to the album and I like it a lot too.
Red Velvet has 2 sides - Red & Velvet. The last few songs you heard were probably Red songs. This is a Velvet songs. Other Velvet songs with MVs are Be Natural, Automatic & One Of These Nights.
If you guys aren’t into the overdone girly/cute girl group concept, you should really check out Dreamcatcher! They’re a girl group that really fights the whole cliched cute concept. Their concept is more horror with a rock sound and they’re amazing talented too
Wow, I don't think anyone else fully figured out the storyline so accurately and noticed all the details in one go like you did. And I'm glad you liked the song, I think most people do too.
Honestly this song is what sealed the deal for me. I've always been watching Red Velvet and looking at their recent songs to see if to stan them but I wasn't quite interested. But now I have to go learn their names. Wish me luck.
How can you listen to "Dumb Dumb", and not think it's one of the best songs ever? SM's instrumentals and experimental sound is so great, and Red Velvet's weird red pop sound on top of hip-hop beats, combined with their velvet RnB sound, is a perfect example of that imo.
This is my favorite Red Velvet song! And I liked the eeriness of the mv and found it really entertaining to watch. And like you said, you can see with their choreos, that it stays in the same style but is still different everytime. And I really appreciate that.
I love your theory of this MV. Most people are more focus on the members, but you point out some details that I'm missing like the crescent moon. And Red Velvet B-side tracks are the best actually!!! You should check them out! From Ice Cream Cake album until now, their b-side tracks never disappoint. Oh Boy, Talk to me, Cool hot sweet love, Time slip, and Kingdom come are some of my favorite RV b-side tracks.
Oh and don't ask me how much I love Oh Boy! because it hands down my favorite RV song ever!! xddd This song ranks 1st place most downloaded RV b-side track in Korea and K-netz said that the lyrics is really beautiful, it can't even be translated to another language because it has rhyme and connect to Korean fictional story or something I don't remember XD
cyphersyoongi I find that so interesting. I quite liked Ohh Ahh, TT and Cheer Up but have to jump on the bandwagon as since those releases I have liked each come back less and less. Always find it fascinating how differently people can view the same songs and have total opposite opinions.
I'm the exact same! I didn't hate Cheer Up and TT (although I really didn't like knock knock), but Likey was actually incredibly catchy and I immediately downloaded the song! I was mad that a lot of ppl don't like the song, to me it's their best title track yet
I've always liked RV songs, but I never truly became a fan. Yet. This song seriously is making me consider joining the fandom! Your insight on the video is very indepth and made me understand it more, thank you!!
I loved peak-a-boo, the whole music video was so interesting to watch and there were so many things to look out for which is something I like. The song is my favourite title track yet, it still had the feeling of red velvet title tracks but it matured. It relates more to their velvet side which is my favourite. I loved the instrumental since it was a bit creepy, a bit of melancholy, but still had a lot of energy. The whole album is wonderful, had a variety of genres and honestly I'm so proud of red velvet.
your insight put a lot of perspective in my theories, since i just watched the video an hour ago and started fanning. honestly though, i feel like they're ghosts / gwisin? i kind of came to that conclusion after noticing how deathly pale they looked while dancing in front of the house during the day, but at night or inside of the house, they looked completely fine? if i remember correctly, the full moon increases paranormal activity, but i could be wrong. also the fact that during the training montages i'm pretty sure the arrow hit the apple, but it just went right through it? and how the strikes completely missed seulgi / seemed to pass through / by without concern? and i read that gwisin are usually made up by children, or by parents to scare their children, which might be the reason for the music box sound? it has a very childish undertone, yet still maintains a dark and eerie vibe. also the name of the song is peek-a-BOO. so... anyways, thats just my theory. someone clearly undercooked their pizza and they died from it and now all delivery boys must pay with their lives.
You may not like their title tracks but RV's discography is A1 and every album they try something new so there's a lot to enjoy. Oh and holy sh*t this is the best MV breakdown I have yet to hear.
From their non title tracks, my favorites are 'Stupid Cupid', 'Time Slip', 'Body Talk' (specially), 'Zoo', and 'Look', the last from their latest album, which is a treat.
i loVEEE peekaboo. the sound of the song and the aesthetic of the music video is so interesting, and i can’t help but be obsessed with it. 110% my favorite red velvet comeback.
Bro i feel the same way. I’ve never stanned rv before but this song rlly caught my attention. The choreography, the song, the outfits. Like I’m in love
Critique. On. Point!!! Loved this comeback and will definitely be purchasing the physical album. My faves are Kingdom Come and Look I'm just so amazed at the growth of Red Velvet's sound. It's constantly changing but maturing at the same time!
sweetie i am so sorry you have never listened to their B-tracks? They're actual gold. If anyone wants to check them out some of my favorites from each album Perfect Velvet Album: I Just, Kingdom Come Red Summer Album: You better Know, Hear the Sea, Zoo Rookie Album: Body Talk, Talk to Me, Last Love The Velvet Album: Light me Up, Cool Sweet Hot Love, First Time The Red: Oh Boy, Time Slip, Cool World Ice Cream Cake album: Candy, Take it Slow Also really great video, actually some explanation and content :)
Thank you so much for reacting to my favorite group!! Your theory really makes sense actually, you incorporated all the little scenes that there was. Very nice!
Loved this song~ Red Velvet is my favourite group, glad you’ve warmed up to them 😋 and their new album is amazing! If you wanna check out some of their album tracks, I recc Body Talk, Kingdom Come, I Just and Zoo💕
Duuude you looked so far into it! I loved your explanation, this was awesome! You noticed so many things that I missed when watching this for the first time!
I love how you broke this video down. It’s one of my favorites Red Velvet mv’s because of its dark nature. And when you said you feel it’s kind of like hunter/prey I couldn’t agree more. When I first saw this mv I got “The most dangerous game” by Richard Connell vibes.
Holy crap how are you so observant and get the theory absolutely right at first try??? None of the other reactors got the right analysis!
clandestine00 cuz he’s a producer lol not ur average viewer
He’s movie producer. Peek a Boo has a very clear 3 arc story telling.
One word: Normies
clandestine00 he probably rewatched it a few times and just used the last recording?
@@LOL-VBE nope
The ending scene with Yeri firing the crossbow I actually view as part of the act of giving the delivery boy false hope, as you can see the bolt flying past him as he's running. She might have missed deliberately. He also has a bleeding cut on his face from that point on, and maybe the bolt clipped his face.
That's what i thought as well, she misses the shot deliberately to give him false hope and when he thinks he's safe one of the members get out of the car and kill him, they're literally toying with their prey before finally killing him.
ohhh that makes sense! maybe that's why during the training session they have a member as the target so they can practice their skill at not hitting them but getting it just past them
You also notice that Seulgi, when she was with Irene, had a cut on her face from the razor. I think it's foreshadowing because even though Seulgi has the cut she isn't dead yet- Irene could easily slit her throat from her position. And then who's the most likely culprit who killed the pizza boy? The only girl who had her hair in a ponytail the entire time? Irene.
You guys have too much time
@@ItsXY it's not a very complicated music video to understand what's happening tbh
Woah you caught it so quickly! Other reactors are always said "why they always trying to kill each other" at the beginning but no, you assumed "they training how to kill" good job! You're absolutely right. You're explained the mv very well and thank your for reacted this mv. This song is catchy, joy is so sexy here 😍
Adika Luthfi maybe because 95% that react to RV peekaboo is international while PD know lyrics of korean so he can explained what happened on that MV
please review this album, its possibly one of their best albums yet
ceoyeri hello im sorry for doing this but is it ok if u also check out mines? i know its annoying but im just a small account trying to make friends. thank you
The Red is also the best
I adored The Red, but this is honestly even better. I think it's the best.
The Red was iconic asf, I can't name one song from that album that I didn't listen to on repeat
Really? I feel like the only one who disliked every song and i usually love everything red velvet.
“I’ve actually never heard a non-title track by Red Velvet..”
THAT STATEMENT CRUSHED MY SOUL.
Let us know if you ever decide to go check out some b-sides! Would love to hear your thoughts.
Zac Redington ME lowkey i was like that's the problem lmao rv has some of the best b sides and theyre consistent!
You Better Know literally makes me cry. Huff and Puff from The Red is really fun, too.
. Dan
What? That might be the most unjustified statement I’ve ever heard in my life.
. Dan WTF this is probably one of the most ridiculous comments I've ever seen ... I'm sorry to say that .... But honestly like ????
Dan this is funny. Even critics recognize the group for their strong discography. Mind checking carefully? lol-
I'm so mad that you understood it the first time like I had to read a theory
Same man…
That was by far the best explanation of the video I've seen! I bow down to your film expertise, I like film noir, Steven King and Hitchcock, and your explanation pulls it all together here! :) I'm getting more appreciation of this MV every time, it could turn out to be one of my favorite RV songs (although beating Happiness would be an amazing achievement!) Thank you! :)
o hey you watch form of therapy too? I recognise you from KM United's youtube videos' comments! :')
Hello! :) Yes, I think the Producer is one of the smartest, most focused reactors; and KM United I like because they have curvier girls than kpop, I especially like my blue-haired queen, and their 'scary' doll! :) I think the doll is a fun concept, I'd like to see more of it.
Yes! Finally someone else who loves Happiness too! It's always been my favorite RV song and this is a close second :D
Yes, Happiness is a brilliant concept and song, an original and delightful debut! :) I've loved RV ever since...
red velvet out here creating BOPS
Usually I don't like dark concepts but every dark concept by SM I love. I haven't been able to get into Red Velvet until this album and I love the retro vibe. The teaser for PeekABoo and Atta Boy were my favorite and after listening to the album they're definitely my favorites. I was shocked to hear so many slow tracks on this album as well but my favorite songs/album by them so far!
We Reveluvs welcome you here to the fandom!! Red Velvet’s velvet side is so underrated and underappreciated and so I’m glad you like it!! Enjoy
Same
It’s so captivating and also the music itself matched so well
I also like Russian Roulette, the bright version of Peek-a-boo
their nontitle You Better Know is hands down my fave song from them
My favorite is "Oh Boy"
YASSSS YBK has the same vibe as Cool World
you better know’s so good! also my faves along with body talk
Alice Lee talk to me is mine lol it sounds so fresh!!
Their song for Two Yoo Sugarman is one of my favs
red velvet has a ton of good non title tracks on their albums, one of the not many groups where i dont dislike a single song of theirs! besides all the songs from the new album i recommend:
- body talk from rookie album
- zoo from red flavor album
- some love from russian roulette album
- cool hot sweet love from the velvet album
- honestly the whole the red album and the whole ice cream cake album
- also would u which is an sm station song and wish tree which is a christmas single i believe
domi Body Talk is perection! I love this song so much
Yes! All these songs are sooo good!
Body Talk is my absolute favorite oMG
I loveee lucky girl too
Yes, Body Talk has such genuine emotion to it that it makes me tear up even though I don't speak Korean. And Automatic, oh gosh, Automatic. Try not to get turned off by the video, it's odd. But the song is gorgeous. From the new album my faves are KINGDOM COME and I also like "I just" and Bwa/look.
“OH MY GOD IRENE! OH MY GOD JOY!” SAAME
Red Velvet is my favorite girl group in terms of overall discography, they have a lot of great b sides! I love Some Love and You Better Know
Katie McLean I like cool hot sweet love and automatic
Same their b tracks are top tier!
This song is the perfect combo of their Red and Velvet sides (probably why their album is Perfect Velvet)! I love their more eerie songs, but it is also upbeat in a way which ugh it's just amazing! In the ending scene, I love how they added the missing delivery boy poster. Definitely one of my fav tracks from them and the album is amazing too!

For me The Red and Rookie album has the best b-side tracks XD
It means they're all good!!
Bluerose Jey I like The Red B Side so much
Oh totally! I love all their stuff which makes choosing a favorite that much harder XD To me, RR has a lot of musically interesting songs like Lucky Girl and Some Love so that's why I recommended he start with that one since he said he wasn't a big fan of their earlier stuff :)

Ador kable same. That's what I think aswell
Ador kable YES
Ador kable this is really late but the fact that one member who was “saving” him kept changing, he was hallucinating from the jello he ate and had that false hope that he got away safely thanks to that “one member”
but Red Velvet did say it is up to interpretation
I love Red Velvets aesthetics, concepts and songs. Almost all of their videos are extremely well done and thought through, heavy with symbolism and imagery. Add to that their quirky, creepy and unique songs... just amazing.
YOU FINALLY DIG IN! IM GLAD!
joy never fails to amaze me omg i've seen u in like 'every revel's reaction videos' lol
I love you fellow joyful 😂 I see you every revel video I go hahahaha
I love the murder club vibes, this song is my actual aesthetic!!
I'm finally into a Red Velvet song my friend can leave me alone
Best Description yet/ever of this music video, I think you nailed it perfectly, and the best so far out of everyone else's reactions. I do suggest you check out their other albums though, there is good music in there.
8:17 "One type of pizza delievery boy" ah yes, my favorite breed of Pizza Delivery Boy is Dominos.
Here's my theory that I commented on a separate explanation video:
Maybe after so many murders (at least 28, judging from that last payphone part), perhaps the girls had slowly fallen out of it, and began questioning their actions. I feel like their first murders were probably much more precise and quick, and didn't even require them to get out of their house, unlike this murder.

+TheBig BAM I wasn't expecting anyone to reply so soon, or at all! Thanks for having the patience to read all of that :DD
I’ve been thinking all this time that they were just toying with him before killing him in different ways, but this was really interesting to read!
+wintaesheart Aw thanks so much!!
Wow that's a really cool interpretation!
I just love every Red Velvet song. For me is every sidetrack a bop. I stan the right group 😂
Your theory was pretty much dead on....also don't forget at the beginning of the video when they're all in the room asleep it's like they are tired from all of the training they've done and the hunt. Also how they train by having one member as a target on that seat but they miss each time, but they hit the apple perfectly, it's like they train to miss even though they are perfect shots...
Also about their side tracks...DO IT honestly Red Velvet is very well known for as well having AMAZING B side tracks as well. My favorites from this album are, My Second Date, I Just, and Attaboy. However this was a Velvet centered comeback so most of the songs on the album will be slower and more R&B influenced.

same
I loved this song a lot. Dumb dumb instrumentally was an AMAZING song too. Other songs you should check out is automatic, red dress, happily ever after, lucky girl etc. Their non-title tracks are absolutely breathtaking trust me
I really liked the mv, I also caught some fairytale vibe...like red riding hood/hansel and gretel
Just like Grimms stories, where they have that fine line between cute/childrens tale x creepy
You should listen to their perfect velvet album
This video proves that RV so cool. Keep changing concepts and change their styles
A friend has a theory that the girls are like 21st century mermaids, and I like this. I loved your way of analyzing the music video, it's what we already thought with our fellow Reveluvs !

As for the song itself, yay, it's definitely one of their best ! ♥ It's always interesting to have your point of view, I waited for it and I'm not disappointed, thanks ! And the album is really as good as the titletrack. Hope you enjoy it ~
Really good video
A hug!
V1ncent Draven hello im sorry for doing this but is it ok if u also check out mines? i know its annoying but im just a small account trying to make friends. thank you
V1ncent Draven DRAAAAAAAAVEN
DRAAAAAAAAVEN
It is so satisfying to have someone catch the meaning behind the mv straight away. Not to mention you broke it down as well 👍👍
I totally recommend checking this album and their other albums as well because red velvet always DELIVER with their album content !
few recommendations of non title tracks that i love
-Talk to me
-Cool Hot Sweet Love
-Red Dress
-Time Slip
I have to agree with you. I have also been trying to find a red velvet song that I like. It is not that their previous title tracks have been bad, they just have not been my style. I am very particular with my girls groups, I don't like a lot of Korean Girl groups because I tend to not like the girly style. This is the first Red Velvet song that I love and I have also listened to the album and I like it a lot too.
Same with me. I didn't really like their last comebacks, but this one just got me :)
Caitlin Connolly That’s like me I don’t give in to girl group I find them too girly but red velvet really stood out this time
Red Velvet has 2 sides - Red & Velvet. The last few songs you heard were probably Red songs. This is a Velvet songs. Other Velvet songs with MVs are Be Natural, Automatic & One Of These Nights.
Have you listened to Automatic?
If you guys aren’t into the overdone girly/cute girl group concept, you should really check out Dreamcatcher! They’re a girl group that really fights the whole cliched cute concept. Their concept is more horror with a rock sound and they’re amazing talented too
Wow, I don't think anyone else fully figured out the storyline so accurately and noticed all the details in one go like you did. And I'm glad you liked the song, I think most people do too.
Your reactions are the only ones I enjoy because you’re not just screaming in excitement and you really analyse the MVs👏👏👏
Honestly this song is what sealed the deal for me. I've always been watching Red Velvet and looking at their recent songs to see if to stan them but I wasn't quite interested. But now I have to go learn their names. Wish me luck.
Peek a boo is legendary and still best title track from rv
How can you listen to "Dumb Dumb", and not think it's one of the best songs ever? SM's instrumentals and experimental sound is so great, and Red Velvet's weird red pop sound on top of hip-hop beats, combined with their velvet RnB sound, is a perfect example of that imo.
MY FAVORITE RED VELVET SONG
Their title track “automatic” is my favorite!!
This is my favorite Red Velvet song! And I liked the eeriness of the mv and found it really entertaining to watch. And like you said, you can see with their choreos, that it stays in the same style but is still different everytime. And I really appreciate that.
It's probably my favourite RV song too, the second mist be Russian Roulette (I think I have something with RV killing concept apparently)
I love your theory of this MV. Most people are more focus on the members, but you point out some details that I'm missing like the crescent moon.
And Red Velvet B-side tracks are the best actually!!! You should check them out! From Ice Cream Cake album until now, their b-side tracks never disappoint. Oh Boy, Talk to me, Cool hot sweet love, Time slip, and Kingdom come are some of my favorite RV b-side tracks.
Oh and don't ask me how much I love Oh Boy! because it hands down my favorite RV song ever!! xddd
This song ranks 1st place most downloaded RV b-side track in Korea and K-netz said that the lyrics is really beautiful, it can't even be translated to another language because it has rhyme and connect to Korean fictional story or something I don't remember XD
omg no no no all their b-sides are so good! they are definitely convince you to be a reveluv!
me at 0:14 is sooo me, especially me with twice i never saw the hype with them until likey
cyphersyoongi I find that so interesting. I quite liked Ohh Ahh, TT and Cheer Up but have to jump on the bandwagon as since those releases I have liked each come back less and less.
Always find it fascinating how differently people can view the same songs and have total opposite opinions.
Lisa i liked those songs but they were never songs that stood out to me haha
I dont like them tht much but their songs are sticky and good
I'm the exact same! I didn't hate Cheer Up and TT (although I really didn't like knock knock), but Likey was actually incredibly catchy and I immediately downloaded the song! I was mad that a lot of ppl don't like the song, to me it's their best title track yet
cyphersyoongi Same, I didn't really like their music until I heard Likey 😂
I've always liked RV songs, but I never truly became a fan. Yet. This song seriously is making me consider joining the fandom!
Your insight on the video is very indepth and made me understand it more, thank you!!
I really love this song too. because it's so unique and the concept like so new and never same with the other song and mvs before
Please listen to a whole album! It’s very nice
Finally someone got the same ideas I had the first I watched it! You should check their b-tracks, they are awesome!
red dress from their the red album is hands down their best song for me, peek a boo is a close second
I'm so happy PD loves Red Velvet now!!! And having this song opening his heart to Red Velvet makes me SUPER happy
Your thoughts on videos are always so insightful and detailed, it often helps me appreciate the cinematography of music videos a lot more
I loved peak-a-boo, the whole music video was so interesting to watch and there were so many things to look out for which is something I like. The song is my favourite title track yet, it still had the feeling of red velvet title tracks but it matured. It relates more to their velvet side which is my favourite. I loved the instrumental since it was a bit creepy, a bit of melancholy, but still had a lot of energy. The whole album is wonderful, had a variety of genres and honestly I'm so proud of red velvet.
I can feel the strong 60-80s horror movie influence from this mv...
your insight put a lot of perspective in my theories, since i just watched the video an hour ago and started fanning. honestly though, i feel like they're ghosts / gwisin? i kind of came to that conclusion after noticing how deathly pale they looked while dancing in front of the house during the day, but at night or inside of the house, they looked completely fine? if i remember correctly, the full moon increases paranormal activity, but i could be wrong. also the fact that during the training montages i'm pretty sure the arrow hit the apple, but it just went right through it? and how the strikes completely missed seulgi / seemed to pass through / by without concern? and i read that gwisin are usually made up by children, or by parents to scare their children, which might be the reason for the music box sound? it has a very childish undertone, yet still maintains a dark and eerie vibe. also the name of the song is peek-a-BOO. so... anyways, thats just my theory. someone clearly undercooked their pizza and they died from it and now all delivery boys must pay with their lives.
actually i just read the "Emily wants to play" theory and nOW I KNOW NOTHING omggg. such a great comeback for red velvet.
Goosebumps-y aahhh
lmaooo they ate a pizza that went bad? That's a cute theory actually :D
damn can I just---HE GOOD!!!!! he already got the story in one watch! as expected from a film producer!
Wuoooo you are very analytical and observer, I'm impressed, I love peek a boo it's one of my fav MV's
You may not like their title tracks but RV's discography is A1 and every album they try something new so there's a lot to enjoy. Oh and holy sh*t this is the best MV breakdown I have yet to hear.
It’s so satisfying when the people reacting to red velvet MV’s understand the plot 🥰🤩
I loved it. I believe I will stan Red Velvet from this album. BECAUSE IT'S AMAZING. And Joy... OMG... 💓💓💓
The song kingdom come off of this album is really great as well!
From their non title tracks, my favorites are 'Stupid Cupid', 'Time Slip', 'Body Talk' (specially), 'Zoo', and 'Look', the last from their latest album, which is a treat.
Omg XDD I NEVER NOTICED THE MISSING DELIVERY BOY SIGNS ;-; don’t judge me for not noticing it
it's okay, no biggie
i loVEEE peekaboo. the sound of the song and the aesthetic of the music video is so interesting, and i can’t help but be obsessed with it. 110% my favorite red velvet comeback.
I absolutely LOVE this comeback
Totally agree with you. There was never been a red velvet song that got stuck in my head before. I´m hearing it over and over again...
Bro i feel the same way. I’ve never stanned rv before but this song rlly caught my attention. The choreography, the song, the outfits. Like I’m in love
i really appreciated that more in depth analysis, you definitely mentioned some things i didn’t noticed before.
amazing reaction as usual pd :)
Omg 'never listened to a red velvet song other than title track' me: sorry can't relate
Critique. On. Point!!! Loved this comeback and will definitely be purchasing the physical album. My faves are Kingdom Come and Look I'm just so amazed at the growth of Red Velvet's sound. It's constantly changing but maturing at the same time!

This is also the first red velvet song I’ve liked, it’s so damn good and catchy
Thank you so much for reacting to my favorite group!! Your theory really makes sense actually, you incorporated all the little scenes that there was. Very nice!
this is personally my favorite title track from them, i love everything about it~ once again, another great reaction from you, pd 👍
I love this song and video sooo much. Red Velvet never disappoint me.
You took the words out of my mouth. This is the first Red Velvet album that I've liked. I hope to hear more from them in the future.
i'm really happy to see that you're enjoying their comeback. this comeback has brought me a lot of joy so it makes me glad seeing other enjoy it too
Loved this song~ Red Velvet is my favourite group, glad you’ve warmed up to them 😋 and their new album is amazing!
If you wanna check out some of their album tracks, I recc Body Talk, Kingdom Come, I Just and Zoo💕
Duuude you looked so far into it! I loved your explanation, this was awesome! You noticed so many things that I missed when watching this for the first time!
I think they put some kind of drug in the jelly so that the delivery guy keeps seeing himself getting saved by each members.
This is the song and MV that got me into Red Velvet. Now they're my favourite girl group!
I love how you broke this video down. It’s one of my favorites Red Velvet mv’s because of its dark nature. And when you said you feel it’s kind of like hunter/prey I couldn’t agree more. When I first saw this mv I got “The most dangerous game” by Richard Connell vibes.
from all the reaction videos I’ve watched, you’re the first one who got the concept precisely. wow you really got into the details!!!
this is my favourite red velvet song as well... it's very catchy and i just love it
this song is what made me check out their other stuff, i really liked it ~
Finally, someone reacting that got everything right away like I did. This is why I'm subscribing!
ahhh so many great albums and songs this month!Perfect velvet is probably one of m favorite red velvet albums of all time ~
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS SO LONG
I’ve not watched an MV reaction until I’ve seen the producers haha. This steady stream on content lately is amazing!
damn that theory sounds awesome, i love it
The Red (album) b-sides are god-like you have to check it out~
Just came back here after watching your Psycho reaction ah man Red Velvet deserve everything
I love how attentive you are and figured out the MV right away!
It's my favorite Red Velvet's song, so I agree with you. I enjoy your videos
I loved it!! Thank you for diving in deep about the mv
Also you might appreciate block B -shall we dance :)!
Wow! Thanks for breaking down the MV so well. I'm a dimwit when it comes to understanding the subtleties and putting together the story in MVs.
im still so shocked over your theory after just watching the mv once WOW
