Fun fact: UN Village (pronounced like U.N. Village -- like United Nations -- UN. Not unvillage.) is a real place in Korea. It's a ritzy, trendy neighborhood in Korea where some of the top celebrities and idols live. For example, some of the members of BigBang and SHINee have, or used to have, apartments/condos in UN Village. (I think even Baekhyun now lives in the UN Village area.) The area is known for its cool architecture and landscapes, and I think some of this MV was either shot in UN Village or, at the very least, the sets were meant to emulate the look of UN Village. So Baekhyun has said that the song is supposed to make listens feel like they want to take their date to UN Village and wander through the streets and buildings while whispering words of love in their ear, etc. "UN Village" and this album City Lights is Baekhyun's solo debut. He kind of surprised all of us with this one. Before the song was released, we all were trying to guess what kind of style and sound his first album was going to have. And, although this style totally makes sense for him, I don't think many were anticipating it would be quite this soulful. However, since then, all of Baekhyun's albums have been heavily R&B based. Also, Baekhyun's EXO superpower is the ability to control light. So, although "UN Village" is a love song and he is singing to and about a girl and about her light, the lyrics are also referencing the fact that his superpower is the ability to control light. The lyrics have a double meaning -- it's about love, but it's also about how he can literally turn off the street lights with his powers. That is why this MV has so many references to spotlights and shadows and light and dark and why you see the shadow of lamps with bare light bulbs, and why it's in black and white, etc. Hence, one reason why the album is called City Lights, which obviously also references his power. LOL As with almost everything EXO does, the red light is thought to represent the Red Force and blue represents EXO. So the scenes that are red could be instances where the Red Force is in control and the scenes in blue are when Baekhyun has the upper hand. Also take note of the giant map he is looking at hanging on the wall in this MV. When you eventually get to watch EXO-CBX's MV for their song "Horololo," you will see what many think is that same map hanging on the wall in the office Chen, Baekhyun and Xiumin are in in their "Horololo" MV. (It's also thought to be the map we see on the phone that EXO's Kai and NCT's Taeyong are using in SuperM's "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV.) The scene with Baekhyun laying on the table still hasn't been explained, but it is thought that it will eventually become important to connect something to do with EXO's storyline in the future. Everything EXO does is connected to the group's concept and storyline. This song and MV is an example of how even many of EXO's solo projects are part of the story. Even as soloists, they can't escape the fact that they are members of EXO. So, "UN Village" and City Lights is supposed to have an evening theme and his follow up song "Candy" and Delight repackaged album, is supposed to be daytime/daylight. It all is meant to play off of each other. :D The two albums are as different as night and day.
Hi, I really like your reaction videos, you are very Energetic 😊. Please try D.O (EXO) feat Yoo Young Jin "Tell Me What is Love". This song can also bless your ears. And please choose the lyric video for this song because the song in the lyric video is full song, not the one uploaded by SM. Other songs I recommend are "What is love" (Baekhyun & D.O EXO) and "Baby Don't Cry" (EXO-K).
So his name 😂 -Baek, is pronounced like "Beck," with a short "e" sound as in "bed." Hyun: the "hy" is similar to the beginning of "human," but softer, and the "un" is pronounced like "yun" in "young," but more blended together. "Beck yun" is close enough (closer than yoon Lmao), so until you really start hearing his name when you watch their other content this is the easiest i can describe it 😅
Next is Exo lotto , Electric Kiss , Chen Beautiful goodbye , Baekhyun Candy
I hope you react to EXO's Oasis live in Japan.
He is such a great singer if you can react to his live 😊 is amazing

So his name 😂
-Baek, is pronounced like "Beck," with a short "e" sound as in "bed."
Hyun: the "hy" is similar to the beginning of "human," but softer, and the "un" is pronounced like "yun" in "young," but more blended together.
"Beck yun" is close enough (closer than yoon Lmao), so until you really start hearing his name when you watch their other content this is the easiest i can describe it 😅
