Obsessed with director ari aster in general....and Florence Pugh. Midsommar brought me here but the amazing music from red velvet and your excitement kept me here...(I'm so ready for Spooky season content)
That girl was mention is naevis rumored to be debut very soon she will guess part of this red velvet comeback they make a story about this the girl was fall is her naevis that a fiction this comeback so you need to fugured so carefully.
literally only red velvet 😭 only red velvet would ever dare to use such a messed up horror movie for their kpop mv 😭 like literally no other group would EVER do this 😭 i love red velvet so much ♡
@@joy0953 that scene was right after seulgi chase the girl, and than she fell, so in that scene where RV have flowers in their eyes, the girl was already sacrifice (killed) so they finished the ritual and then, the girl fell and turns into the Sun, wich means the ritual was complete
@@Lunafreya_Noxmidsummer is the english name, midsommar is the swedish name, and the movie is named after the swedish name for the festival. no mistakes here.
After I heard the MV was inspired by the movie Midsommar, I've just watched the movie before the MV comes out, and it was quite an exotic experience! I think RV did serve the MV in their own way with the lyrics of COSMIC, which is more beautiful and nostalgic. RV is my fav CULTure for sure!
OMG the cosplay is so perfect!! Red Velvet will always not only make banger songs but incredible MVs! The creativity is always 10/10 and they own the horror girlie concept! I'm such a baby when it comes to horror but when Midsommar came out, everyone was talking about it so I researched the story and I really adore the narrative! The girls absolutely killed it with this one and I'm so excited to hear the album because I've heard incredible things about it so far too. It's a RV summer, baybeeeee! ❤
K-Pop group concepts are often well thought out but there has never been a group like Red Velvet, their concept is consistently dark yet bright, the reason they are one of the biggest K-Pop groups of all time is because their artistry is completely unique and untouched, they also have Wendy and Joy, two very strong singers who's vocal tones are so iconic and instrumental to the group any K-Pop fan would be able recognise them straight away, Seulgi who is a super stable singer, Irene who's voice has so much charm and Yeri who's voice has a child like energy, I've never known another K-Pop group with members who mix so well but still bring their own style... Red Velvet is unique
I love Midsommar. Ever since you said the concept photos screamed Midsommar I can't unsee it!! Your cosplay is so amazing and so iconic!! I'm going to save this album on my playlist immediately. Lol! ❤
"Geeking-out Laurel" is peak Laurel and there is no debate possible. Love it when you're passionate about your interests! (I mean, who else pulls off 'I'm wearing a 1800 Flowers store' better than Laurel?)
girl my first date with my bf was to go to see midsommar and when i tell you i was OBSESSED and then for RV to do the concept i was FOAMING at the mouth THE SONG???? LITERALLY SOBBING ITS SOOOOO GOOD
all I know is the flower eyes resemble the part when they were about to burn the house down along with whose inside and yeah the red part screams the house burning lol haha
As a swede I need to watch Midsommar 😭 it kinda makes me sad that people fr think real midsommar is a cult or something tho 😭 Midsommar is such a pretty holiday (unless you're one of those who like to get black out drunk at midsommar because jail ☠️)
Just discovered you as a reactor and your personality and vibe are so relatable to my queer chronically online self. So I immediately enjoyed myself immensely. Red Velvet are my ults so I love whenever I find reactors who share and express the same intense passion for the group and the amazing content they put out.
Hey there fellow midsommar obsessed & red velvet stan!!! If you told me two years ago red velvet would be having a midsommar concept and not just the festival but the MOVIE i would not believe you but also cry like i did when i found out about the teaser and saw the mv. God i love them so much.. despite all my happiness the girls (especially joy) deserve so much better. Thanku for dedicating ur time to this video, i thought i was alone in loving these pieces both so incredibly much. They're both a huge comfort.
the concept is midsommar and also that a human lands on a alien planet and now they are treating the human like a queen also like midsommar and not letting them leave the planet(got this off a youtuber who was an extra on the MV)
I don't know if anyone else knows this but I recognized the dresses in the trees as being a reference to Tim Walker's "The Dress Lamp Tree" photography. He's a British fashion photographer.
as another person who fell in love with Ari Aster from Hereditary, Midsommar is one of those films i can remember minute for minute even having not seen it in a year. thats how much the film stuck with me. Ari's ability to portray grief, loss, betrayal, a dying relationship AND being unknowingly initiated into a cult was absolutely a cinematic masterpiece. The last scene of Dani the may queen just looking absolutely dead inside hit so hard. Got what she wanted, to be seen. but at what cost?
I agree with you on the ending. Like She was thinking just about his bf cheating on her even though he was drugged like.. there's more bigger problem than your bf cheating sorry😂 you're still in a cult lol. I have yet to watch Hereditary coz people keep mentioning it too.
@cosmicgalaxystudio1539 Her boyfriend was a jerk to begin with. She was full of anxiety and grief from the loss of her family. She wanted it to all fade away. They did. But for what? She's stuck in a cult and her mind has completely deteched from the reality.
Wow your flower costume really fabulous, it's matching for Red Velvet comeback and also reminds me of flower monster from Rookie MV too hehehe. It's nice to know when people love RV musics because they are my most favourite kpop girlgroup
This is the legit reaction we needed and you served it!!! I watched Midsommar(first time) while re-streaming the mv and now the movie replays on my mind while I listen or watch Cosmic. The movie was really disturbing and scary which is good, it's horror 😂 (I mostly skipped the gore, I'M WATCHING DURING MIDNIGHT WHILE WORKING) It's a really good movie and RV making an inspiration from it was phenomenal. It seems like we will now see Kpop groups using movies as inspiration but let's not forget that Red Velvet had done it in the most enchanting and eerie way. Thank you for the reaction!❤❤❤
I just discovered the movie through this red velvet's cosmic. And I just watched it and this is the type of horror movie that I like. Thank you so much red velvet 😊
This is so good, everything I wanted and more! I love midsommar so much and they were the perfect group for this! Also I wanna share my theory for this mv (very rough). Basically in the trailer we got before this we see all the girls in some perfect reality where they collect all things from their previous mvs, they all burn themselves in different patterns (I’ll explain later). Somehow they are then in this dark room with only a doorway lighting the members, suddenly a shadow blocks this light in the doorway and then a green light flashes, teleporting the girls. The cosmic MV starts with them falling out the sky, so I guess they were teleported in the air. And suelgi uses the flag to find the other members, I also think the burn marks were used to tell they were together. Then ensues the mv where they kill the may queen, finishing their task. So it seems red velvet has been reporting to some higher power who is sending them to kill these people in their mvs. I have many theories as to what for but there’s definitely something important about the sun and moon (it seems liked sacrificing the may queen summoned? The sun?). Also something about dreams in their lore, the lyrics mention exploring dreams and the chill kill trailer was all about going through dreams/nightmares. There’s also lots of bits of lore to do with the movie in this that I would have to really take some time to understand! But I’m very excited for where the lore goes! Why are they being sent to kill people? Who’s giving them these orders? Maybe they have to kill 5 people to set their own souls free?
Ok wait I just realized it’s actually the future may queen who fell from the sky at the start! I think red velvet literally are just going into peoples dreams and for some reason terrorizing them😭, in chill kill trailer there’s a poster that says “have u seen these girls in ur dreams” so it’s clear this is something they’ve been doing, not sure if all mvs are dreams tho. This also connects red velvet with nct dream as they also have something going on with dreams so the lore is just getting more complicated as I try to understand!
aaaah this is my favorite reaction so far its so adorable and cuuuute im watching this 2 months later and im even more hyped than when i watched it for the first time you're so cuute
i have a few connections and theories: Seulgi was the previous May Queen and is the main person helping to find the current May Queen (who fell from the sky) and her actions showed how she was the previous May Queen: - shes the only one who is dancing solo in the sun/forest - she alerted the cult when the girl fell from the sky - she ran after the girl when she tried to escape and RV helped her - shes the only one shown to wear the May Queen crown that is breathing - she got dragged away afterwards by the cult to make way for the new May Queen and the rest of RV + cult danced with the current May Queen (the girl) in the circle. (even though in the official dance sequence its still Seulgi, but in the story sequence it's the current May Queen) a few connections i noticed: - the white room resembles the yellow temple, as the sun comes down through the ceiling and makes the whole room orange, it mirrors the ending where the temples catches on fire - a nod to Ari Aster/Hereditary: zooming out of the same white room where it is surrounded by black background and stars, it gives an illusion that the room is in the void/solar system/cosmic, which is something Ari Aster did in Hereditary - picking of the flowers to create the flower crowns
The thing is…the girl is probably dead at the table. Her lips are blue, her mouths is hanging open and she looks pale af. That would mean Seulgi should’ve also been killed at some point but there she is.
YESSSS red velvet are seriously owning this era and the mv is so cool!!! and the entire album is just INSANEEEE like completely skipless banger after banger (as per usual for red velvet ofc 🤭) also gonna quickly promote my fav; key from shinee is coming back with his jp single and the concept is srsly soooo sick !! its tarot fortune teller + early-mid 2000s internet blingee edits LOL its super nerdy and cute id rlly recommend checking out the concept photos!! the song comes out in 2 days and the mv in a week and a half 💕
we have similar reaction when i watch this mv, and MIDSOMMAR is my favorite psychological/horror film of all time and Red Velvet went to this concept!? isss so absolutely AMAZING! they nailed it! such a concept queen ❤️
Tell me why I literally watched ANOTHER Midsommar commentary video right before the teaser dropped??? I felt like I was the one cooking up this comeback 😂😂
watching this right after watching the mv and i KNEWWW you would love it like this music video is SO YOU LAUREL and if there's one thing red velvet/sm artists do it's deliver their vocals !!!!! cute reaction vid as always ily lorl
7:47 haha I think you missed an important part for reading the captions, you can see the person running away, and trying to escape, as she's running the red velvet members just stare at her and you can see what she see from her perspective, they dint chase after her because they know that they set a trap with the red strings at the beginning of the video and that's where she trips and falls which is a parallel scene to the movie
Finally found someone who like k-pop and horror films/shows 😂 i watched the movie before the MV came out. I wanted to understand that details. I agree with the flowers in the eye tho. Like that part creep me in the mv if I watch the film haha. When it comes to Horror/Culty concepts.. Red Velvet always delivers. And also it pissed me that the MV took long to upload lol.
I've never actually watched "Midsommar," as I've heard a lot of both good and bad about the film. But since I love RV so much, I'm going to sit down and watch it tonight.
Red Velvet's Cosmic album is sooo good !! The midsommar theme they had is so cute and so campy. You should react to Aespa's latest comeback Armaggedon MV !! It's very eerie, alien esque, and has horror to it !
At the table scene youll notice that the lips of the outsider is blue might indicate that 💀💀💀 while the girls lips are red which means theyre alive and smiling. Or its just the shadow 🤷🏽♂️ 🥲 8:22
i think the dresses are their sacrifices before, probably just like peek a boo where they killed the pizza guy and put their outfit as some kind of trophy??
Ahhh. Laure you might not remember me but I try to watch you're live twitch and I sub too you. Anyways I love Midsommar! and I only saw 59 seconds of this youtube and haven't seen the rest I got to excited when I saw the thumb nail. Ok, i'm going to watch the rest of the video.
@@Ice-yy9rx paganism is old religions. Mostly polytheistic. Many different forms of it. Wiccan is one more commonly known. Lots of pagan religions "worship" ( not really worship but will use this word for lack of finding a better one ) the elements or the Sun and Moon, planets ( Roman religion was a form of paganism , so was Ancient Greece )
@@Ice-yy9rx In the case of the mv it has to do with the movie. But the point of the comment was that Midsommar isn't about a cult, but a pagan religion
Typical SM to delay something of Red Velvet's and NOT talk about it until AFTER the time for the drop has come and gone and they start getting complaints. They SUCK at giving any sort of heads-up at all. It's VERY clear to see that SM hates Red Velvet (or maybe just does not give a flying fuck about these ladies). The First of August will be RV's 10th anniversary but the company can't be bothered to get this right. You can find that SM has CONSISTENTLY screwed RV like this many times but you will NEVER see problems like this with ANY of their boy groups.
Typical disgruntled so-called "fan" infesting all available reactions with their imagined facts about how much their company hates their own group. The song and album is a massive flex. Not as massive as "Chill Kill" but don't compare full albums to eps. If they truly HATED RV, they would have consistently delayed their salaries, not ever let them venture outside the company (like if they didn't let Seulgi perform her own songs or "Dumb dumb" at Bam Bams concert. Which they could. They own the songs), if they had completely skipped this release and their anniversary or if they had EVER given them an extremely meh release or just a copy of old stuff like Blackpink gets. I have nothing against Blackpink, and their talents as a group are obvious, but they are clearly held back by recycled or copied materials from their (very limited) discography. And I feel bad for those girls. But to say a company who releases the truly massive flex of an album "Chill Kill" was, and now this within a year, is NOT the actions of a company that hates their group. And exactly what difference would it make to announce the (negligent at best) delay ahead of time, on the set release or after the fact? You would either be whining that they delayed at all (which, of course, can ONLY be bc they hate RV), that they waited till release time to announce it (same "reason") or bc they wanted to "let a few complaints come in". Jesus tits, I'm not saying RV is in any danger of going anywhere, but if they were, I bet it would be more bc of "fans" spending waaay to much time and comment space hating on their company that supporting the group and liking their releases, if they actually do like it 🤔
@@Hgoenge81 Go do all of the PROPER research around this entire group. These ladies were WORKED TO THE BONE until they could barely stay awake, completely exhausted and still had to continue performing. They were all STARVED half to death by their company, so the company could take the money earned by RV and hand it to the boy groups. Go take a closer look AT THE COMPANY and then try bitching about how I am a 'typical hater'. I pointed out a lot of good shit for you to actually look at. Tell me WHY this group was never promoted as well as any of their boy groups. Damned right I hate the company for its shitty treatment of people who worked their asses off. Hate for the right reasons. Very well-placed hatred. You are going to need to do WAY BETTER than your little rant at me here in order to change my mind about that. I AM A FAN of the Group, even if I hate their company or at least I hate the Execs and the Management. These ladies deserve far better treatment than what they have had. I bet that if you have any kind of empathy at all and you go do the research, you would feel the same as I do afterward because you will know I'm right. I don't even need any apology after you figure out the mistreatment because it's very real. I am not normally the type to say 'I told you so', so I don't want to hear any apology. The entire industry is like this and it needs fixed so do something active about it instead of trying to shame me for shining a light on the problem.
im kind of a delusional fan, but what if they made a collaboration with iu in this mv, made iu as the may queen, and a freaking ending fairy showcasing them all including the other midsommar peeps??? THE BIGGEST WHAT IF FOR ME
If you want Horror creepy music video check NATURE GIRLS can't wait your reaction the music video is so scary and also dont forget the uncensored version of NATURE GIRLS please check
Okay I might be wrong but in the movie some character find out that Simon was hanging with his skin being wide open to the inside. His eyes were covered with two yellow flowers, its not covered the cult literally put the flower into his eyes. The one who found him was realized that Simon was still breathing and he was dying. So I assume when the girl fall into the trap she was on the verge of dying i mean its clearly only white background with 5 members and the member was smiling but there Joy was feeling gulity bcs of that. And the next scene is you can she that girl shadow falling to the glass and turning into the star/sun.
Please tell me I am not the only midsommar obsessed fan here!? LMK what your favorite song on the album is!

If you’ll look at the lips of the May Queen in that Simon table scene - her lips were blue. That girl was dead DEAD 😭 also, the MOVING FLOWERS!

the mv delay😭 haha. fr tho midsommar is one of my favorite films, i was soo hyped when i saw the trailer. hopefully they reference hereditary next lol
i have a few connections and theories:
Seulgi was the previous May Queen and is the main person helping to find the current May Queen (who fell from the sky) and her actions showed how she was the previous May Queen:
- shes the only one who is dancing solo in the sun/forest
- she alerted the cult when the girl fell from the sky
- she ran after the girl when she tried to escape and RV helped her
- shes the only one shown to wear the May Queen crown that is breathing
- she got dragged away afterwards by the cult to make way for the new May Queen and the rest of RV + cult danced with the current May Queen (the girl) in the circle. (even though in the official dance sequence its still Seulgi, but in the story sequence it's the current May Queen)
a few connections i noticed:
- the white room resembles the yellow temple, as the sun comes down through the ceiling and makes the whole room orange, it mirrors the ending where the temples catches on fire
- a nod to Ari Aster/Hereditary: zooming out of the same white room where it is surrounded by black background and stars, it gives an illusion that the room is in the void/solar system/cosmic, which is something Ari Aster did in Hereditary
- picking of the flowers to create the flower crowns
The thing is…the girl is probably dead at the table. Her lips are blue, her mouths is hanging open and she looks pale af. That would mean Seulgi should’ve also been killed at some point but there she is.
YESSSS red velvet are seriously owning this era and the mv is so cool!!! and the entire album is just INSANEEEE like completely skipless banger after banger (as per usual for red velvet ofc 🤭)
also gonna quickly promote my fav; key from shinee is coming back with his jp single and the concept is srsly soooo sick !! its tarot fortune teller + early-mid 2000s internet blingee edits LOL
its super nerdy and cute
id rlly recommend checking out the concept photos!!
the song comes out in 2 days and the mv in a week and a half 💕
This is so great!!! I love Midsommar and just went to see the Director's cut in IMAX last week. This video absolutely DELIVERS
oh this comeback was definitely made for you lolol
thank you for the reaction!!!!!
we have similar reaction when i watch this mv, and MIDSOMMAR is my favorite psychological/horror film of all time and Red Velvet went to this concept!? isss so absolutely AMAZING! they nailed it! such a concept queen ❤️
SOTY RIGHT HERE
Midsommar is such a beautiful family movie ❤
I hope you're joking 😭
Lol its not
Tell me why I literally watched ANOTHER Midsommar commentary video right before the teaser dropped??? I felt like I was the one cooking up this comeback 😂😂
watching this right after watching the mv and i KNEWWW you would love it like this music video is SO YOU LAUREL and if there's one thing red velvet/sm artists do it's deliver their vocals !!!!!
cute reaction vid as always ily lorl
I love your midsommar cosplay!!! And your whole vibe and energy girl!!!! Definitely a new subscriber here
So far this is the best reaction i watch,
this was so fun to watch i’m a hugeeeee midsommar fan and also reveluv so ur reaction was me fr
red velvet you MUST do another horror movie reference. THIS CANNOT BE THE LAST.
Omg first time seeing your vids and you’re so amazingly beautiful! Love your energy and your reaction❤
As a midsommar and kpop girlie aaaaaa i found my people! You just earned a sub!
Get ready for Red Velvet 2024 Domination❤🧡💙💚💜
7:47 haha I think you missed an important part for reading the captions, you can see the person running away, and trying to escape, as she's running the red velvet members just stare at her and you can see what she see from her perspective, they dint chase after her because they know that they set a trap with the red strings at the beginning of the video and that's where she trips and falls which is a parallel scene to the movie
surrounded by flowers! I like it. thanks for the review
Finally found someone who like k-pop and horror films/shows 😂 i watched the movie before the MV came out. I wanted to understand that details. I agree with the flowers in the eye tho. Like that part creep me in the mv if I watch the film haha. When it comes to Horror/Culty concepts.. Red Velvet always delivers. And also it pissed me that the MV took long to upload lol.
I loooove your reactions!! And I agree, short haired Wendy is everything! Thank you so much for reacting to them once more
My forever favorite reactor!
I've never actually watched "Midsommar," as I've heard a lot of both good and bad about the film.
But since I love RV so much, I'm going to sit down and watch it tonight.
Love red velvet cosmic very magical music ❤️ but dont forget also SUPERNOVA from aespa !!❤
Thanks for your best reaction 🤩
I say Red Velvet came to slay and slay more than we'll ever know jahahahaahahah
Red Velvet's Cosmic album is sooo good !! The midsommar theme they had is so cute and so campy.
You should react to Aespa's latest comeback Armaggedon MV !! It's very eerie, alien esque, and has horror to it !
WAIT!! I've seen you on Tiktok. A Reveluv lets go!
Wait imma watch the mv now, tf midsommar inspired!??!
Finally! Someone who've watched the movie finally! Most reactors haven't even seen the movie and just don't get it HAHAHAHA
Youre iconic for this
GURL YOU ATE
At the table scene youll notice that the lips of the outsider is blue might indicate that 💀💀💀 while the girls lips are red which means theyre alive and smiling. Or its just the shadow 🤷🏽♂️ 🥲 8:22
As a man, my life goal is to be sacrificed by Red Velvet.
Yasss cultvelvet
Finally reaction of someone who watched and loved the movie!!! THANK YOUU!!
Seriously so many reactors i watched didn't even know or watch the movie...thank u for this reaction
@@AllenChibiYeah it was confusing bcs midsommar was so viral back then in 2019. Like where are they living 🗿
@@Ganjigpt30 i know 🤣 i was kinda surprised too
Amazing video, i love you and red velvet❤❤
Did you see the flowers breathing on seulgi’s flower crown?? so cool!!
I DID WHILE I WAS EDITING! So mad I missed it while recording.
Love
i think the dresses are their sacrifices before, probably just like peek a boo where they killed the pizza guy and put their outfit as some kind of trophy??
IT MADE SO MUCH SENSE NOW
Ahhh. Laure you might not remember me but I try to watch you're live twitch and I sub too you. Anyways I love Midsommar! and I only saw 59 seconds of this youtube and haven't seen the rest I got to excited when I saw the thumb nail. Ok, i'm going to watch the rest of the video.
I hate that people say Midsommar is about a cult. Its not. It's paganism. Its actually very close to viking "religion"
What is paganism and what do you guys worship
@@Ice-yy9rx paganism is old religions. Mostly polytheistic. Many different forms of it. Wiccan is one more commonly known. Lots of pagan religions "worship" ( not really worship but will use this word for lack of finding a better one ) the elements or the Sun and Moon, planets ( Roman religion was a form of paganism , so was Ancient Greece )
@@Death_by_Kim_Yoohyeon does it have anything to do with astrology? Or the actual movie midsommar?
@@Ice-yy9rx In the case of the mv it has to do with the movie. But the point of the comment was that Midsommar isn't about a cult, but a pagan religion
@@Ice-yy9rx lots of paganism has to do with astrology tho
Typical SM to delay something of Red Velvet's and NOT talk about it until AFTER the time for the drop has come and gone and they start getting complaints. They SUCK at giving any sort of heads-up at all.
It's VERY clear to see that SM hates Red Velvet (or maybe just does not give a flying fuck about these ladies). The First of August will be RV's 10th anniversary but the company can't be bothered to get this right. You can find that SM has CONSISTENTLY screwed RV like this many times but you will NEVER see problems like this with ANY of their boy groups.
Typical disgruntled so-called "fan" infesting all available reactions with their imagined facts about how much their company hates their own group. The song and album is a massive flex. Not as massive as "Chill Kill" but don't compare full albums to eps.
If they truly HATED RV, they would have consistently delayed their salaries, not ever let them venture outside the company (like if they didn't let Seulgi perform her own songs or "Dumb dumb" at Bam Bams concert. Which they could. They own the songs), if they had completely skipped this release and their anniversary or if they had EVER given them an extremely meh release or just a copy of old stuff like Blackpink gets.
I have nothing against Blackpink, and their talents as a group are obvious, but they are clearly held back by recycled or copied materials from their (very limited) discography.
And I feel bad for those girls.
But to say a company who releases the truly massive flex of an album "Chill Kill" was, and now this within a year, is NOT the actions of a company that hates their group.
And exactly what difference would it make to announce the (negligent at best) delay ahead of time, on the set release or after the fact? You would either be whining that they delayed at all (which, of course, can ONLY be bc they hate RV), that they waited till release time to announce it (same "reason") or bc they wanted to "let a few complaints come in". Jesus tits, I'm not saying RV is in any danger of going anywhere, but if they were, I bet it would be more bc of "fans" spending waaay to much time and comment space hating on their company that supporting the group and liking their releases, if they actually do like it 🤔
@@Hgoenge81 Go do all of the PROPER research around this entire group. These ladies were WORKED TO THE BONE until they could barely stay awake, completely exhausted and still had to continue performing. They were all STARVED half to death by their company, so the company could take the money earned by RV and hand it to the boy groups.
Go take a closer look AT THE COMPANY and then try bitching about how I am a 'typical hater'. I pointed out a lot of good shit for you to actually look at. Tell me WHY this group was never promoted as well as any of their boy groups.
Damned right I hate the company for its shitty treatment of people who worked their asses off. Hate for the right reasons. Very well-placed hatred. You are going to need to do WAY BETTER than your little rant at me here in order to change my mind about that. I AM A FAN of the Group, even if I hate their company or at least I hate the Execs and the Management. These ladies deserve far better treatment than what they have had.
I bet that if you have any kind of empathy at all and you go do the research, you would feel the same as I do afterward because you will know I'm right. I don't even need any apology after you figure out the mistreatment because it's very real. I am not normally the type to say 'I told you so', so I don't want to hear any apology.
The entire industry is like this and it needs fixed so do something active about it instead of trying to shame me for shining a light on the problem.
im kind of a delusional fan, but what if they made a collaboration with iu in this mv, made iu as the may queen, and a freaking ending fairy showcasing them all including the other midsommar peeps??? THE BIGGEST WHAT IF FOR ME
1:20 is all of us! ahahahahahaha!
There was abba vibes in the music.
Can you react to Red Velvet Psycho?
If you want Horror creepy music video check NATURE GIRLS can't wait your reaction the music video is so scary and also dont forget the uncensored version of NATURE GIRLS please check

@@myjb.2002 I did! It’s included in my Femme Fatale video!
@@LaurelRothamel oh damn! sorry, i subbed from this video 😅
@@myjb.2002 no worries! ❤️
you should watch really bad boy from them if you haven't
You should react to ‘Bad Villain’ By ‘Bad Villain’❤
Can someone tell me the implications of the table scene?
Okay I might be wrong but in the movie some character find out that Simon was hanging with his skin being wide open to the inside. His eyes were covered with two yellow flowers, its not covered the cult literally put the flower into his eyes.
The one who found him was realized that Simon was still breathing and he was dying.
So I assume when the girl fall into the trap she was on the verge of dying i mean its clearly only white background with 5 members and the member was smiling but there Joy was feeling gulity bcs of that. And the next scene is you can she that girl shadow falling to the glass and turning into the star/sun.
Is Midsommar worthy to watch? I haven't seen that movie.
Hi, is it ok if I ask how you edit your videos? Your zoom in and zoom outs are nice
@@aurishakira when it’s me editing, I use Final Cut Pro, when it’s my editor I think she uses adobe premier! The zooming is with the “crop” tool!
gurl, may queen is dead in that table scene
Oh Laurel I BEG you to please do the album reaction for YT, just like you did for ATEEZ and Hannah, it only seems fair 🙏🤞❤
