It can take a while to get their names and faces down. Siyeon & Sua, Yoohyeon & Jiu, and Yoohyeon & Handong are the pairings that people tend to have the most trouble with, but don't feel bad. Handong's mom had trouble telling Yoohyeon and Handong apart during BEcause promotions and Yoohyeon thought she was looking at photocard of herself one time and it ended up being Handong, so you're not alone, lol.
*New to Dreamcatcher??* Top Favorite: Silent Night, Eclipse, Deja Vu and Whistle Popular: Deja Vu, Odd Eye, BEcause & Maison Known for their: Anime vibes and jpop/jrock inspired Debut song: Chase Me Anime vibes: Eclipse, Silent Night, Full Moon, Starlight, Over the Sky, Deja Vu, Chase Me, I miss you, R.o.S.E Blue Other genres: Red Sun, Black or White, Wind Blows, In the Frozen, Daydream, Entrancing, July 7th, Lullaby, Emotion, 4 Memory, Poison Love, Alldaylong, Starlight, Sahara, Jazz Bar, Mayday, Sleepwalking, Diamond, Locked inside the door Evanescence vibes: Break the Wall Rock Theme? : BOCA, Rising, Breaking Out, Endless Night, Tension, Curse of the spider Title Tracks(MVs): Chase Me, Goodnight, Fly High, You and I, What, Piri, Deja Vu, Scream, BOCA, Odd Eye, BEcause, Maison, Vision, Bonvoyage, OOTD
At first glance you could think this is about them being proud and happy with themselves, about confidence. I don't think that is it though. The album is called VersuS VillainS, which makes me think it is not this simple. So I believe this song is meant as a criticism of narcissism, vanity, materialism and also (maybe) the fast fashion industry. "OOTD" stands for "Outfit of the Day" after all, maybe it's about useless instagram influencers posting videos of their outfit of the day, which also promotes fast fashion. The fact that fashion is moving ever faster makes it the most destructive industry to the planet only outdone by the fossil fuel industry. The Aral lake has all but disappeared because of the cotton industry for example. It would fit to the Villain image, and you can see in the MV that they are acting. It is shown in the scene where Yoohyeon and Handong are fighting, but then the camera is off and Handong helps Yoohyeon up. The main reason why I don't think it is about confidence or their own success is the line "Driving on the highway, drunken everyday, do you feel like a monster?" and the album title. That just doesn't fit. And there was the ymenehcra (arch enemy backwards) account posting about touching a crown is dangerous and other cryptic messages before the comeback. It could also be a big and well-hidden F*U to the Kpop industry, like the Nightmare arc probably was. The narcissism and materialism is definitely criticized here, and Dreamcatcher have been criticized a lot themselves because of their rock/metal concept, while other groups have been celebrated for using a guitar riff once in a song. And Handong standing in front of the camera with bruises all over her legs seems to be a comment on the merciless industry as well. The music is highly interesting as well. The Rock is dirty and distorted. The song structure is not what you'd expect at all, for me it is funk rock meets K-Pop. Not their usual spiel, but a very good progression. It takes a couple of listens to really appreciate it.
It's always a pleasure when we get one of your Dreamcatcher reactions!!! ^_^ Here's the dance practice: ruclips.net/video/bvW-w2Xy_lw/видео.htmlfeature=shared And, if you're interested, OOTD has quite the backstory that will include their next comeback. This youtube video explains all the lore so you can understand this video and the next comeback: ruclips.net/video/YB95zXseGUY/видео.htmlfeature=shared Hope these help! Have a great day! ❤
Thanks for checking out Dreamcatcher’s OOTD! OOTD appears to have at least 3 layers to it. Layer one is the surface layer. This is a flex song that, on first listen, sounds fun and empowering. However, if you really dig into the MV and the lyrics you see that's it's much more than that, which is where layer two comes in. Layer two is that the MV and the lyrics are critiques of the current state of the industry and the types of songs that have become so popular over the last several years. Everything in the MV is curated and edited to look perfect. The manufactured drama between idols that’s prevalent but behind the scenes they are friends and care about each other. Gahyeon is used to promote products in a store. Jiu is a literal product in packaging, all while telling you she's Venus and Nephthys and to call her a goddess. Venus, being the roman god of love and Nephthys being one of the Egyptian gods of death. Handong has what looks like horrible bruising on her legs, but the upper half of her body looks perfect signifying the physical damage and trauma that idols endure and that it's often hidden from the public. There's more in the MV but these are the things that stood out to me initially. The third layer is the story layer that's tied to this new Versus Duology. You noticed the references to a Crown in the MV as well as the text that was popping up in certain areas about the Crown. These references are related to the Alternate Reality Game (ARG) that DCC used to promote the album during the month leading up to release. About a month before the MV dropped the user ymenehcra (Arch Enemy backwards) popped up on twitter and was tied to the first comeback teasers. Since then, they’ve been tweeting their experiences and leaving cryptic messages on Dreamcatcher’s RUclips videos. The messages dealt with an obsession with finding the crown. The user has also experienced blackouts and memory loss during this time frame. Since the MV dropped there have been more clues found including audio files of the Dreamcatcher members discussing their 100th and final victim in their quest for the Crown. That final victim is Shasha, who is the person in the MV, who was sacrificed at the end when Jiu places the crown on her head. Also, there are creepy clues in the albums including hidden messages from previous victims that read like something from a horror movie. They've really gone all out on this comeback and the lore surrounding the first album is crazy. This is the first time they've been so overt with the lore outside of the MVs. I'm really looking forward to how all of this is going to wrap up. Siyeon said that we wouldn't fully understand the concept until the second part drops. You should check out the rest of the album. All the songs are great, and they experiment with vocals and song structure a great deal on this album. They've also released a dance video for one of the b-sides on the album called Shatter that you should watch. I'm expecting part two to drop in the next couple of months or so. Are Bonvoyage and OOTD the only songs you've seen/heard so far?
I'm still trying to match names to faces! Don't come for me😭😭
