@@YunaPabo She did not. That was mistranslated from a bubble message where she said the choreo best suited Chaeryeong. The entire behind for the MV and dance practice Yeji repeatedly called out her thanks to the actual Choreographer and stated in that video he did every part of it. I don't know why RYUJIN stans need to continuously repeat things that are already proven to be fan fantasy. Please stop. Seriously it's not a good look that her fans do this.
@@incheonguy i've seen one of the girls bubble (maybe Chaeryeong?, dunno i forgot) saying that, but if i mistranlated that, then sorry my bad. But just to be clear, i'm not anyone's stan but ITZY's. I like and support all 5 of them, coz each member is unique and strong in their own field.
I think that when the English version of Imaginary Friend was released, Apple Music said that the song was about the parasocial relationship we as fans have with kpop idols. That’s why they keep repeating they are our “Imaginary Friends” and they will keep us safe and dreaming but in contrast the song and mv look cold almost sad, having an imagery of the girls running in circles, being hurt and trying to stop the bleeding without succeeding , being scared and harmed by shadows that can’t touch them but the itzy girls can feel them, the girls trying to cover lia’s eyes at the end, a butterfly pinned to a wall, so beautiful and still so we can see it carefully but so in pain at the same time. Actually Lia herself said that we as fans get to decide if imaginary friend is a good thing or not. Absolutely stunning, not many songs in kpop invite us to reflect about how we consume our favorite idols.
I think the vast majority of the discourse around parasocial relationships centers around how they affect the fans, often negatively. Almost nobody talks about how the idols feel about it. All they want is to bring some light into their fans' lives with their music, but there's a limit to what they can do at such a distance, and no one will be more acutely aware of this limit than they themselves are. I imagine it's a strange existence being an idol these days, charmed in some ways and cursed in others.
This is truly one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard and one of the most stunning music videos I’ve ever seen. Being a fan since the Wannabe era, seeing them go through hell and back while also only getting closer to one another has been such a journey for me to witness. I can’t help but feel pride for them, and smile brightly watching them flourish and thrive.
I think that this song hits the hardest emotionally for people that have something bottled up inside. Whether it's sadness, anxiety, stress, or anything, this song can bring it out. I like to think of the song itself as our imaginary friend that we can open up to, and release everything to it. We all are lucky that our imaginary friend here sounds like Lia. Everything about the song is relatively simple (just 3 chords, simple stripped back choreo and styling) but it's done in a complex and in a precise way. Definitely my favorite ITZY song, and one of my all time favorite songs regardless of genre.
also, i'm surprised that you don't listen/react to NMIXX (you seem to like JYPapi GG). I think of them as the little sisters to ITZY where NMIXX sings as well as ITZY dances, and dances as well as ITZY sings. Both are great performance groups. NMIXX might be the most talented group to ever come out of JYP.
I agree, I feel seen by this masterpiece. I also strongly agree on the NMIXX recommendation, probably my favorite discovery this year. Their discography is already up there with my favorite GGs, a lot of which happen to be @DifferentlyAlike favorite GGs as well.👀
Lately, ITZY hasn’t enjoyed the same level of mainstream popularity in Korea as they did before. However, they have always given their best and created impressive performances. With this song, it feels like a new chapter has begun for them, and as a fan, I can clearly feel how much they care about their fans. In particular, the choreography in this song includes many swan-like movements in the music video. I think this might symbolize ITZY’s journey by comparing it to the movements of a swan. Swans appear graceful above the water, but beneath the surface, their feet are constantly moving. Just as it takes a lot of effort to grow into a more complete version of oneself and to maintain that position, I believe ITZY might be using this metaphor to represent their own journey.
BEING A MIDZY SINCE THE DEBUT, I CAN TELL! This is their best song ever! I love it so much. It is so touchable. Listening to it, I feel something that I can't explain. ITZY will always be my favorite group!
Not lying when I say I've had this song on a loop since it was released. It's such a beautiful, touching song and im totally and completely in love with it 😭🖤🥰
thank you guys for reacting to imaginary friend 😭 can't wait to see ur reaction to vay with changbin (chaeryeong asked him to make this song for itzy so he wrote and produced it with itzy in mind) u should see him in the studio directing the girls, he was so sweet
omg!! I literally checked youtube to see if you guys posted reaction and I imploded when I saw “one minute ago” like what 😭😭😭 the gods are smiling upon me today, thanks for the reaction
0:35 "but i should be fine.. i think i'm gonna be okay" literally me lol then i was a crying mess after seeing the mv and lyrics (might have to get this one tattooed honestly)
This mv made me cry like a baby😭 their dance was so emotional and the visual were amazing, the lyrics were so beautifully written and the vocals…I’m just so emotional😭
I have rewatched this video and I have to say the backup dancers created the imaginary friend in the video and the Performance Video. So intense...Good job dancers!!!
I’m so mad I didn’t even know they had a comeback til now! I’m not an itzy Stan, but i love their music! Why hasn’t this comeback been more promoted? Or has it an im just really out of the loop?. This is such a beautiful, elegant song. With an equally beautiful and elegant video and choreography.
I adore Itzy, always have and this song gets me every single time. I LOVE that the chorus has 5 parts to it so they all get a line each, i LOVE the Lia centre start and the Chaeryeong centre dance break, and Yejis low voice on her verse. LOVE LOVE LOVE ❤️ 😍
Itzy performance videos are something you can't ignore no matter what the song is,,,, they're best known for the dance choreography !! Literally perfection group 😊🥰
Imaginary Friend feels like a song drawn from the idea that a person or entity has a deep connection with another that they trust and love who is experiencing something painful in their life. Not an angel or demon necessarily, but an intimate being that wants to heal the one they love seeing them in their lowest moment.
it's like having online friends. ive been friends w my online bffs for ~6 years now nd although we live across the country from each other (or across the world since one of them is from belgium), we're always there for each other. long distance friendships always feel like imaginary friendships though, since the other person(s) aren't physically there w u. we do facetime often but it's obviously not the same as being together irl. but i hope to meet them irl someday (esp cuz im 18 now). it feels this way sometimes w my irl friends too, as a lot of them are at different colleges thatre pretty far away from me so it makes it hard to meet up. but we still text nd stuff, and we're there for each other despite the distance. truly both special connections
When I come across music like this, I don't try to hold back, I just let myself feel it.🥲Definitely one of my favorites of this year in every aspect. It reached into my soul as deep as Justice, but in a more personal way. It's extraordinary how the lyrics, the song and the choreo are all melancholic and comforting at the same time. The emotion that this song expresses is as ambiguous as that imaginary friend it is talking about. And that's just the introspective interpretation, it also seems to touch on parasocial relationships and Lia's struggles. It's abstract, yet really hits home. Just masterful.
The song is gorgeous. I'm in awe nd i wonder why it took jyp so long to give a song like this to itzy anyways i luv this. My new fav itzy song actually
This is my fave song not just from them but of all time. Idk what’s with the song but I just can’t stop listening to it. I have watched the MV so many times. I love the song so much I am glad they choose Imaginary Friends as their 2nd title track cause I love that we get to see them performed this live. They deserve more recognition and more songs like this. It fits them.
I was waiting for this reaction ❤ I knew Esosa would cry😂 when I first heard the song I cried for about 4 minutes after the song ended. I kept replaying and tearing up. I’ve been an Itzy fan since Debut and if you’ve also been a fan for long then you know everything Itzy went through. I love seeing how far theyve come and everything they’ve gotten through. Also, let’s please stop the Itzy hate. People were hating for absolutely no reason before. I better not see any hate with this album❤❤❤
Honestly my favorite song of theirs, it's just so good musically and the vocals are the cherry on top. The mv is a masterpiece. As Twice fan and someone whoever doesn't follow itzy like that, I hope this mv/song wins plenty of awards and gets the recognition it deserves!
Also also (last one) I teared up throughout the entire song, but Lia's version "when there's monsters on your ceiling" made me actually shed tears 😢 It's so beautiful and... just knowing that she's been struggling herself makes it extra moving that she would protect US from the monsters. 😢
This is my favorite MV and song from ITZY!!!! Something about it and stepping into a contemporary vibe shows their versatility (hard hitting choreo to this). It is such a beautiful and addictive song!
As a person with barely any friend, hearing this song was such a cuddle for me, every time I'm sad because of loneliness I put this on my earphones blasting at max volume and cry rivers. This song helped me a LOT during this months🥹❤️
I didn't even finish watching the reaction yet,but I just came here to say that Imaginary Friend is one of the best songs of the year,the prettiest in between ITZY's MVs and absolutely my favorite song of them from now on. 💗 This one is a masterpiece! Everything is on point, the melody, harmony, choreography, visuals, voices, every single detail is perfect.
Finally, I've been waiting for ITZY's reaction on your channel. The best song of the year, I can say that. I hope ITZY will always get great things like this.
I fell in love with the song the first time i heard it, i cried the first time i watched the mv, I'm crying now...I hope everyone that needs this song, finds it. It's EVERYTHING ❤
I've enjoyed their music but never went crazy mode for them. I knew they could deliver something that's closer to my taste since they're well trained and skilled, but this exceeded any expectations I ever had. They truly outdid themselves, not because the quality wasn't there before, but because it usually takes some gradual changes to reach high level product when changing concepts and styles. Props to both Itzy and everyone who worked on this project.
I loved that we agreeeeee!! This is their best song and MV ever!!!! it made them so classy, serious, mature, clean etc soooo beautiful!! they should keep this trajectory, I don't even stan ITZY and i was IMPRESSSEEEEDDDDD
I was waiting for this reaction!! I can confidently say this is one of the best songs of the year and I’m so sad that this has not had the traction it truly deserves.
My new fav Itzy song! ❤ You both are so refreshing. I've watched a few reactions so far, all men, and all of them acted like they couldn't enjoy the song if they didn't understand the story behind the video. Even if you dont know the story, you can feel the emotion, and i dont know why that wasn't enough for them.
I can’t say I’ve seen every single one of your videos, but I’ve watched most of them. The last time I noticed Özlem being more emotional than usual, before this video, was during the reaction to Suga's Amygdala, and honestly-same. ITZY’s best song, gives me chills every time!
This song had my in tears for two reasons: A the song is beautiful and B: Itzy is here to stay!!! They have stepped up their game like all my favorite groups and I am so happy for them!!! Lia's voice in the beginning of the song melted me.....
Everything about this song is stunning - the melody, structure, production, tempo, and the vocals are so sweetly tempered - soft and fragile. The visuals are stunning and the MV has some outstanding sets and shots. The lenses and lighting used are on point. Uniquely Itzy....
Whenever I listen to the prechorus of this song I always feel like there are warm arms being wrapped around me, something that I’ve struggled to attain when I was at my loneliest throughout my life. I’ve never had a song make me SOB this much before maybe a tearing up or a few tears but I was (and still am) crying my eyes out. Genuinely one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Thank you Itzy💜
The imagery in the MV is as Beautiful as the song is haunting. The girls all look fantastic, and they move together with perfect fluidity as they dance. And the dancing in this MV has a great hispanic flavor to it, that I just love as well!
love ur channel bc u both keep it real with ur emotions and u always checkout ITZY! so many “reaction” channels that used to react to ITZY don’t react to them anymore bc it’s no longer trendy. u don’t know how appreciative I am of you both and I’m so glad this song touched you 🥹
This is indeed Itzy best MV and production. Ryujin also part of choreographer is also very good. For the song, i think i put it on top 3 with "Bet On Me" & "Wannabe". But the deep & feelings for the meaning of the song & lyric, yes this one is their BEST 👏👏👏
ES LA MEJOR CANCION EN LA HISTORIA DE ITZY... EL MEJOR MV, MEJOR PRODUCIDO... LA MEJOR LIRICA.. Y EL MEJOR MENSAJE... GRACIA LIA POR VOLVER... Y ESTAR LAS 5 REUNDIAS AL FIN.... COMO UN FEARNOT, UN REVELUV, UN BLINK... Y AHORA UN MIDZY, ESTO LO MEJOR... LAS DEFENDE Y AMARE DE POR VIDA.... :') :'D :'3
I relate to Esosa SO MUCH 😭💔 This song makes me cry… so emotional, straight forward to my heart 😭 And I’m so proud of them for releasing this masterpiece 😭😭😭
Every single day since you reacted to GOLD, I would check if you have dropped your reaction to Imaginary Friend. And it’s finally hereeeeee, thank you so much!
We had it coming when they released bet on me, i knew that sound will resonate in the next songs that they will put out but this, this imaginary friend, they perfected it
We love Itzy in this house. We would love visitors that also love ITZY. Thank you 💚🩷
SAMEEE

this song reminds me of ditto for that reason - they're both such beautiful songs too. love it when artists make bangers like this
ty for this

Not lying when I say I've had this song on a loop since it was released. It's such a beautiful, touching song and im totally and completely in love with it 😭🖤🥰
Me too. It's so beautiful ❤️
@saorimcmanus5725 it really is, personally for me their best 🖤
9:50 It's Lia who did the adlib if yall were wondering 😭😭😭❤❤❤❤
Gorgeous
Yes, I think like you.
They're not talking about that adlib, she was just telling us there was a part she liked and then she tried to find it
@@gracedodd3747 the part in question is the pre chorus where lia is adlibing
I just love how they've grown musically, lyrically and as strong women. This song, this MV, this album was so beautiful and healing.
When this dropped I cried for a week it’s so emotional
thank you guys for reacting to imaginary friend 😭 can't wait to see ur reaction to vay with changbin (chaeryeong asked him to make this song for itzy so he wrote and produced it with itzy in mind) u should see him in the studio directing the girls, he was so sweet

I can tell that Esosa has gone through a lot of pain of being lonely, that's why the song hits hard for her ❤
broooo don't say that to me!!!!!!
I have rewatched this video and I have to say the backup dancers created the imaginary friend in the video and the Performance Video. So intense...Good job dancers!!!
이 노래에 대한 당신들의 리뷰를 기다렸어요!
올해 최고의 노래입니다!
몽환적인 뮤비와 세련된 안무, 가사의 메시지는 제 감정을 후려치네요 : )

YES
imaginary friends is fcking beautiful songgg

I had literal goosebumps the entire time I watched this m/v for the first time. Their voices and just the m/v all together brings me so many feelings.
The real question is, did they know that this song and MV was one of their best hits in their career!?!

The reaction is honestly so real! Literally how I was when I saw the mv. I love u guys and ur reactions 🫶🏾
This reaction just this exact reaction this is everything. This song, choreo and mv. is the best thing this year.
This is my favorite MV and song from ITZY!!!! Something about it and stepping into a contemporary vibe shows their versatility (hard hitting choreo to this). It is such a beautiful and addictive song!
QUEENS OF CHOREO & ARM WORK.. ALWAYS A CROWN REFERENCE - AT THE START AND THE END
The song of year!!!! And mv and choreo, the vocals, the expressions
OK, what we did not expect this year was for ITZY to drop one of the most powerful songs, and the song is a soft an elegant one at that.
As a person with barely any friend, hearing this song was such a cuddle for me, every time I'm sad because of loneliness I put this on my earphones blasting at max volume and cry rivers. This song helped me a LOT during this months🥹❤️
OMG I WAITED DAYS FOR THE REACTION CAUSE I KNOW U LOVE ITZY SO MUCH ❤
I didn't even finish watching the reaction yet,but I just came here to say that Imaginary Friend is one of the best songs of the year,the prettiest in between ITZY's MVs and absolutely my favorite song of them from now on. 💗 This one is a masterpiece!

I’m happy people have the same reaction as me to this Itzy song. It’s so beautiful and so powerul. The song and the MV are both perfection.
Probably the best kpop song of 2024........
Finally JYP give ITZY a beautiful Song and M/V.
And Girls making a amazing Work.
❤❤❤❤ For me the Best this Year.
Yeah, great comeback. And a real "comeback" by definition too.
I loved that we agreeeeee!! This is their best song and MV ever!!!! it made them so classy, serious, mature, clean etc soooo beautiful!! they should keep this trajectory, I don't even stan ITZY and i was IMPRESSSEEEEDDDDD
4:43 same girl same..
la vuelta de Lia sin dudas era lo que necesitaba itzy ella es la pieza que faltaba
An instant classic! I love everything about it, meaning the MV, choreo, looks, lyrics, and also your emotional reaction.
I haven't felt like this since IVE's 'Love Dive'. This song is extraordinary, unexpected, a miracle.
I was waiting for this reaction!! I can confidently say this is one of the best songs of the year and I’m so sad that this has not had the traction it truly deserves.

This will be in my top 5 songs of the year. So beautiful. Itzy is BACK!
Loooooved your reaction🥹
I could relate 1000%
Thank you so much for the video!
This song had my in tears for two reasons: A the song is beautiful and B: Itzy is here to stay!!! They have stepped up their game like all my favorite groups and I am so happy for them!!! Lia's voice in the beginning of the song melted me.....
They gotta perform this this year
Everything about this song is stunning - the melody, structure, production, tempo, and the vocals are so sweetly tempered - soft and fragile. The visuals are stunning and the MV has some outstanding sets and shots. The lenses and lighting used are on point.
Uniquely Itzy....
i'm so with you guys. this is the best that make my tear drop and i love itzy so much. really happy for them. 5 members are the strongest
Also: We got a Chaeryeong dance break!!! 🤯🤯🤯😭😭😭
It was a short one, but she shines so bright in this entire song.
My girl!!! I'm so proud of her 🥲🥲🥲
I've never been so proud of these girls!!! They perservered through so much hate, to come back with this GLORY!!!! I cry everytime I hear this song!
When I first heard this song, I said the same things you ladies uttered. It's indeed their best song, if not one of their best.
Whenever I listen to the prechorus of this song I always feel like there are warm arms being wrapped around me, something that I’ve struggled to attain when I was at my loneliest throughout my life. I’ve never had a song make me SOB this much before maybe a tearing up or a few tears but I was (and still am) crying my eyes out. Genuinely one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Thank you Itzy💜
ITZY, tiene el exito por el cual seran recordadas por siempre... felicidades... y a ustedes gracias por sus reacciones.
Thank you guys for loving them and being so supportive through the hate train
The one thing I love about you guys is you guys have big reactions unlike some other reacting channels😅😊❤❤❤
The imagery in the MV is as Beautiful as the song is haunting. The girls all look fantastic, and they move together with perfect fluidity as they dance. And the dancing in this MV has a great hispanic flavor to it, that I just love as well!
love ur channel bc u both keep it real with ur emotions and u always checkout ITZY! so many “reaction” channels that used to react to ITZY don’t react to them anymore bc it’s no longer trendy. u don’t know how appreciative I am of you both and I’m so glad this song touched you 🥹

This is indeed Itzy best MV and production. Ryujin also part of choreographer is also very good. For the song, i think i put it on top 3 with "Bet On Me" & "Wannabe". But the deep & feelings for the meaning of the song & lyric, yes this one is their BEST 👏👏👏
