As Juyoung and Jason pointed out, this cooperation between SM entertainment and Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra is awesome for not only getting kids into classical music but also people who aren't interested in orchestral music. I'd really like to praise SM for their wild ambition and effort, bravo SM.
this is a top tier comment, that's why SM was, is, and will still be the best K-ebt company of all. They make the trends and are never afraid of putting out Kpop content we almost never expect :-) this company's creative diversity is just insane
I hate being thankful to SM, but I really appreciate how much they love music. They're not simply an idol label. They're actually passionate about music
@@ryu246 I've been a long time stan of sm. You can tell how much they love music with their music choices since the beginning of the label. The Jackson's family and their colleagues actually acknowledge how much SM love MJ's music on many different occasions. So when sm station happened, it's safe to say I was excited cause they finally opened a door for outsiders for collabs and having a proper platform to showcase and promote it.
@@michaelanthony4356 my personal favorite is Zimzalabim because all members get to sing and it just really feels like a bliss I can feel the excitement crawling in my skin as they build up to the crazy last chorus of the song
I was anticipating their reaction to wendy's last line. I remembered my first time watching the MV and I was just bopping through the whole song and when it went to that silent part I was like "Awwwww 🥺". Really encompasses the feeling of a summer love (Fun and sincere)
That's right ! Wendy's part is soo damn ethereal to the ears, when all the Instrumentation stops. The Violin imitated her melodic singing perfectly and makes that lingering feeling be present :)
Wendy’s last lines are gorgeous, especially the subtle crescendo and decrescendo on the very last part. Something about it elevates the song, and almost makes the song feel like a deeper form of happiness, if that makes sense? A more contemplative happiness... and it converts well into a violin part But yeah, I love this song, and anybody who doesn’t is wrong
I highly agree to Kevin, the bridge part in the orchestra was amazing! It's so perfect that I can imagine myself listening to that part while watching the ocean waves
Oh wow, this is being used as the bgm of a corner on Wendy’s Youngstreet radio and as I was watching Wendy, I thought it would be so nice if you guys react to this orchestra version of Red Flavor and bam 💥 this video came out😳
I’m so happy that they commented on Yeri’s timbre. Her rapping timbre is my favorite in this and in “Umpah Umpah” and her rapping in her upper register is so interesting and unique.
I live for Kevin showing love to Red Flavor's bridge 🥰 Red Velvet has some of the best and most interesting ones in kpop, the RBB is still one of my favorites ever
One of my favorite K-pop songs of all time and one of the best summer anthems, period. This is so timely since RV is coming back soon. Thank you for this very insightful reaction to the song and to the orchestral arrangement. Mad props for the editing in this episode, I laughed pretty hard a couple of times!
@Aul Howler yess i know it's gonna be august (also half of kpop idol making CB in August it's gonna be hella broke for us ✋😂) but usually SM release the date one month before, Ah yess D.O SOLO F* DEBUT, seriously the teaser is ✋😍
This is really ridiculous of me, but whenever I listen to Red flavor, either version, I end up crying, idk why I love this song so much and it gets me so emotional but I just can't help crying everytime...
Thanks to Kevin for mentioning the bridge. Red velvet are the Queens of bridges! Plus red flavour's bridge is one of my most favourite bridges in kpop alongside EXO's tempo bridge. That's because it includes part singing, part rapping and all 5 members are involved in it.
Red Flavor is a bright & cheerful song that never fails to lift me up. The bridge which slows down the song, then it moves to grander/richer sound with amazing adlibs/high notes, and it ends with Wendy's vocal without any background music are so satisfying to listen to. Still remember how hype people were when the girls first revealed the song by performing it live in SMTOWN concert. I love the mini album too! Looking forward for RV's comeback this coming August. Probably another summer bop.
I like how one of the musicians said the oboe is a vulnerable instrument on its own and it was used to portray Jonghyun in the orchestral version of End Of A Day. Just something I noticed.
@@imnorika and both of them bop and very popular in that year... Red flavor as summer anthem and kokobop be a most tweeted song and kokobop challenge was over the world
A summer song, but played at the Winter Olympics opening ceremony in Pyeongchang. Ironically, the song was played as the US team entered the stadium, in which delegation were two women's hockey players that were on a high school golf team with Wendy.
This was super fun to watch, having that classical comparison and hearing ya'll talk about it from a technical level just warms my heart and gets my brain cogs turning. Thanks for all the hard work guys!
8:35 “The sheer /joy/” *Edit of Joy dancing cheerfully* This editing is incredible! XD And I never knew there was a orchestra version of Red Flavor! It’s such a beautiful rendition and it makes me happy to see people professionally combining K-Pop songs and classical instruments and bringing them more attention on an international scale. I hope we get more covers and that they’ll get more people interested in classical music and playing instruments.
This is great!! I was looking forward to this reaction for so long and yeah it was just as good, interesting and entertaining as I thought it would be!
thank you so much for this and for reminding everyone how red velvet’s Red Flavor is gold! i really learned a lot about music while happily watching your rv contents! so thank you 🙏🏼
Just yesterday I was doing a red velvet songs marathon on RUclips and I wondered if reactothek has reacted to red flavour or I missed it. And today I got this notification, it's just perfect. ❤️
OMG finally this is out! What came out on my mind when the orchestra ver out was "Are they gonna reacting this version?" "When will it come out?" I really enjoy the classical & jazz musicians reaction
i agree with Kevin on the bridge part, there's just something there that really hits you, your emotion your heart idk but that bridge upto the outro has the emotional attack to you. idk but graduation vibes or happy goodbye like that idunno omg but this is the best bridge/last chorus/outro that i've ever heard, ever.
Absolutely Love when Musicians react to Red Velvet and recognize their Vocal prowess along with the amazing instrumentals backing them :) ... The Orchestra Ver. is one of my most played videos last year !
samee Kevin, I thought the song is overplayed back then. But now, man, the song is my mood booster lol. I really like the bridge too, and the Velvet girls sing this gracefully. As for the orchestra version, I enjoy it a lot! It's really interesting to watch these musicians point out the musical aspect of the song. I often find myself identifying the layers of the song naturally since I watched this channel :) I really like this channel, keep it up!
Ah! This was so refreshing, I really liked the oboe because it reminds me of Seulgi's voice and timbre. I looked up Ossia and it was an Experience, totally felt that in 18:15. It was so fun to watch this video!! I really liked the commentary about the fourths, I couldn't figure out why the rap section sounded so ungrounded. Everyone's reviews were really helpful.

Whoever think of that part and produced / write it
THEY NEED A RAISE
That's right ! Wendy's part is soo damn ethereal to the ears, when all the Instrumentation stops. The Violin imitated her melodic singing perfectly and makes that lingering feeling be present :)
the fruits represent Red Velvet themselves, in the end they partying eating the fruits, so basically they're cannibals

sam: the sheer joy when the were singing
umu *shows joy*
Bruh, Red Flavor is in my personal top three girl group songs of all time. It’s just a damn boppppp
Absolutely same.
12:27 the editing and just the silence really was gold I was wheezing 😂
I’m so happy that they commented on Yeri’s timbre. Her rapping timbre is my favorite in this and in “Umpah Umpah” and her rapping in her upper register is so interesting and unique.
SM's bridges hit different
Raffi : I wanna be a fruit
Reveluvs : *same*
He is too cute
7:38 Henry almost doing the hand greeting too 😆

SM also uploaded the orchestra version of NCT U - make a wish
They already uploaded it? I thought they were still planning to do it
isnt it only two still?
I think they haven't yet?
The official version isn’t out yet
Yup, it's haven't up yet... It just showed up in SM congress
One of my favorite K-pop songs of all time and one of the best summer anthems, period. This is so timely since RV is coming back soon. Thank you for this very insightful reaction to the song and to the orchestral arrangement. Mad props for the editing in this episode, I laughed pretty hard a couple of times!
I think everyone needs to know: this song concept is about World War II!
haha, the fruits talking
Also, I really agree with Kevin's point.
i was like "you got a point there"
The middle part where they speculate about the orchestral arrangement is so nice!! Really cool insight also!
"i wanna be a fruit" is definitely a mood.
more more more more red velvet! dying to hear everyone's thoughts on psycho!
Umu has said they won't react to Psycho (not enough interesting musical stuff for them to talk about to make a good reaction)
Procrastinating former viewer
@@Pos1t1veThinking aaah, thay explains... I was looking for it
@@Pos1t1veThinking true, the only musically interesting thing in Psycho are the synths in the chorus.
now we literally need the date of Rv CB damnnnn, KPOP lost it half uniqueness since Rv hiatus
@Aul Howler yess i know it's gonna be august (also half of kpop idol making CB in August it's gonna be hella broke for us ✋😂) but usually SM release the date one month before,
Ah yess D.O SOLO F* DEBUT, seriously the teaser is ✋😍
lol
i miss them so fucking much, girls, you have no idea
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY god we're almost out of this drought just one more month. Thanks a lot for this Umu and the rest of the team 💚💜💖💛💙

I love the fact that the writers chose the same progression as 'Dancing Queen' to honor ABBA and their country, it makes it heartwarming and cathcy!
I still can't get over the fact that this song is supposed to be Little Mix's song originally. And that this song made Red Velvet "The Summer Queens".
i'm wondering tho if red flavor was planned to be given to exo at first. a producer said it before that exo's kokobop was actually for red velvet.
@@imnorika and both of them bop and very popular in that year... Red flavor as summer anthem and kokobop be a most tweeted song and kokobop challenge was over the world

We are waiting for the summer Queen in August to save summer song
finaliiii redvelvet again!!! WE MISS RED VELVET SM
When Raffi said he wants to be fruit, it is really adorable and y'know *we too ;-)*

Come back here just to tell this channel that I can't wait to watch them reacting to RV's new single, 'Feel My Rhythm'.
THIS ISSSS, I NEED THIS FOR A WHOLE WHOLE TIMEEEE. Thank you UMUUuUuU
This is one of the best song in decade(2010s) even Billboard says this song is no2 hit kpop song 2010s.
I feel like I have already seen this, but I guess it's all in my head hshahahaha
no, it was not the same thing _I've seen before 🤣 🤣 🤣
Sean and Umu filmed their reaction when the orchestra version came out, that's probably what you rememeber
Rewatching this! I’m so excited for your reaction on FMR In Classical version
4:13 "Are those suppose to be the fruits talking?" That's a valid question right there 😂
The bridge with the violin makes my knees wobble. Its so heavenly
I love how you guys are jamming to the orchestra version. You guys are in your element. It's so fun to watch.
i agree with Kevin on the bridge part, there's just something there that really hits you, your emotion your heart idk but that bridge upto the outro has the emotional attack to you. idk but graduation vibes or happy goodbye like that idunno omg but this is the best bridge/last chorus/outro that i've ever heard, ever.
I enjoy your videos. Can't wait to see you guys react to the orchestra ver of make a wish.
Well... now you need to react to the orchestra version of NCT's "Make a wish"

they're coming back this AUGUST 🤩🤩
