    The Korean in the beginning means "Stay forever my Demian". The book Demian by German author Hermann Hesse is about Emil Sinclair, who is a young boy raised in a middle class home, amidst what is described as a "Scheinwelt" (a play on words meaning "world of light") as well as "world of illusion", so the entire existence can be summarised as a struggle between two worlds: the show world of illusion and the real world, the world of spiritual truth. Accompanied and prompted by his mysterious classmate and friend "Max Demian", he detaches from and revolts against the superficial ideals of the world of appearances and eventually awakens into a realization of self.
    It is about the duality of the world, and Dreamcatcher know quite a bit about duality. 😉 I believe that is also why they cover half of their face in the choreo.
    The choreo was done by SuA, and she did a brilliant job! Musically I really enjoy Demian, it has some elements of ProgRock in it, which is one of my beloved genres of music.

    the text at the beginning means "Stay forever my Demian"

  • @CsLaci81

    The lyrics refers to the German novel Demian by Hermann Hesse (written in 1919) For some reason it is really popular in Korea. (Blood sweat and tears by BTS - and the entire series basically - is also using it as a reference)
    Quick summary from Wikipedia: The key concepts of the novel are duality and a words play on two worlds "world of light" an "world of illusion". The entire existence of the protagonist (Emil Sinclair, a young boy) can be summarized as a struggle between two worlds: the show world of illusion and the real world. Accompanied and prompted by his mysterious classmate and friend 'Max Demian' he detaches from and revolts against the superficial ideals of the world of appearances and eventually awakens into a realization of self. Max Demian is a childhood friend and a mentor of Sinclair. Demian leads Sinclair to his eventual self-realization, and may be considered Emil's daemon - lesser deity or guiding spirit.
    Some example references from the Lyric: "I can break through your firmly standing orbit into your universe" two worlds, I want to reach from my fake to your real world.
    "I can still see the world with half of my heart covered" "hide behind a fake version of me" refers to the internal duality of my true self and what I show to the world, shown at 8:00 in the choreography.
    The Dami rap section is pretty much the internal battle - struggle - itself (with the venting of anger 8:42). I want to break (7:52 in choreo) this sophisticated egg and move on, aka get rid of the duality and show my true self.
    So all in all big congrats to Sua for this choreography, it is really really good.

    Demian is a really good b-side, my favorite from that album is Propose, but i enjoy Demian too.
    This special clip and this choreography has been long waited.. we have known for a whole that this clip and SuA choreography was in the works. Another song with SuA designed Choreography. Red Sun, Taki Taki cover, Copycat cover, Havana cover, Tallow cover all were choreographed by SuA. Her choreography never disappoints. She actually had to make some parts less complicated so no one fainted because of how fast the BPM is. The floor was slippery.
    I love the location and outfits. Dami, Yoohyeon and Dong with the abs. Siyeon and JiU with the arms. The choreography for the opening/into potion was inspired by some action show “Tokyo revengers” that SuA has been into lately. So Siyeon was like the boss rallying the troops. Dami.. she really did not need to go that hard during the rap parts.

    DEMIAN is inspired on a Hermann Hesse novel. That book for some reason had a impact in many people. Me, for example. I read it when I was a teenager.

    As I think I said before, Dreamcatcher Company make the special clips with their own video team. In recent years they've bought more and more professional camera equipment and now have the kind of steadicams used by AV companies. They don't use expensive CGI like the company that makes their title track MV's, but the camera work is on the same level.
    This is the hardest choreography they've ever done. Sua said she removed some of elements from the choreo because she thought there was a real possibility someone would faint. She also said they were all hurting a lot the next day.

    • @SylverReacts
      @SylverReacts  Год назад +2

  • @janays3550

    So the title "Demian" and song, of course, refers to a book. I can't read the text at the beginning, but SuA said it's a quote from the song, and she wanted to open it that way with something to read first since it's inspired by a book. She also talked a lot about her choices for lighting - she really was also the creative director for the whole thing. She spoke a lot about her choices. Insomnicsy uploaded a cool video with SuA's commentary showing things she's referring to in the video as she was speaking on it during a live today.
    ALSO okay so it's not totally my fault I thought Dami said "break the wall". The lyric video was wrong there, too 🤭

    You are not wrong with Demian could be a form of a demon or a rebellious person/entity, the novel main character was brought up in a very religious family and when he met Demian the character was not tied down by belives he worshipped the world as it is I wouldn't just outright say "evil" more so a part of knowledge that we learn as we all grow up and strating break out of the mold that our parents have taught us in and started to see the world in our own way and our point of view

    dreamcatcher \:D/
    you're not far off about demian referring to demon or the like. others already gave book info so I won't rehash other than to say demian is part of a recurring theme in dreamcatcher's discography - one's inner struggle between good and evil. a lot of songs are about maintaining your identity and not giving into external or internal pressure. so in this regard evil isn't an absolute evil as most would define it. it's a self reflection since everyone was telling them to change their sound/concept 'if you want to be successful'. the choreo you mentioned about covering an eye is probably showing two faces as they show one side then switch over to the other.
