Tbh who cares they old tbh all look like girls but TOP tbh he left YG wow imo BB need go different entertainment they are older group oh well hair needs go tbh
There are allot of symbolism in the video. Ark of Noah, the lamb, the rainbow umbrella, time jump from made era to still life in the present, 4+1 chair, moon rabbit, There are Korean symbolism too.
TOP kept his word when he said he doesn’t wanna involve with humans anymore. Look at him, at the moon, away from Earth, away from the people who hurt him. Their hiatus was too much. This song kind of saying they are telling their fans goodbye to bigbang era. All of them actually disappears in their own scenes basically telling us they’re taking new path (moon with no TOP, chairs with no Dae, ship with no Tae and directors chair with no GD). 16 years was a blessing to us fans and they came back to the fans who waited, not to the media who harassed them for years. The fact that they are not promoting this on any music shows proves that this song was only made for their fans and not to the general people. Brb, still crying a river
@@marcel_kleist i never mentioned about disbanding. What i said was the bigbang era. Not bigbang. We can all have our own different interpretations of the song. It could be saying goodbye to the past, saying goodbye to seungri, saying goodbye to top. I could be wrong with my interpretations but we can have different take on the song and the mv. Btw, I haven’t seen any articles YG explaining or clarifying the lyrics. I mean, that never happened to YG.
Their last single 'Flower Road' (which they released when 4 members are already serving in military) has a line "Let's meet again when the flowers bloom" and they comeback in Spring, the season when the flowers are blooming the most.
sadly Bigbang is back to say goodbye as a promise to fans for closure, before my excitement could last I'm grieving with sadness for their department 😭 to the great leader King GD, Bigbang is always 5, I'm missing them sooo much 🥺💔👑 🌸🙏

I really look forward to my own speculation n wish, as I really missed Bigbang so much. Their true blue swag n confidence, their fun brotherhood synergy, I missed their powerful fun live performances n those fun variety shows they were in. For now I can only look forward to their solos especially my super bias GD.
All of them have their own solo already and T.O.P announced he is preparing his solo comeback. So those chairs represent the only moment, where they are together in the music video, but it is empty, since all of them have already moved on from the time of being together.
@@alix758 cant say its a "comeback" anymore. Looks like he's done being an idol bullshits. Probably going to be full rapper or joining Korean hiphop scene.
What i notice the most is the color of the umbrella. Back then, gd painted seungri (ex member) using a lot of colorful paint and finishes it with black paint. The inner side of umbrella is a rainbow color while the outside is black. Same as the painting. The lalala must be a homage to their debut song. The ending logo was the icon of MADE album/era. The 5 lines represents the member. Its like bigbang is always 5.
you'd better not know what happened in this past 5 years Jordan, we all (bigbang and vip, their fans) been through hell so this come back is such an emotional situation for us. we cried when they released flower road 4 years ago, and we cried again when they released still life. anyway, thank you so much for reacted to still life, and for the free lesson and your pov as video editor, it's always broaden my knowledge! God bless you more 💛
Even there's not that much Editing in the MV, but you know, this type of music help you through life when you need it the music make you sad, but you feel comfort in it (i don't know how to decribe it)
At the chair scene part. They are originally 5 member group, but some things happened and the maknae(youngest) left. So the four chairs represents the members and G-dragon's chair is separated because he's the leader of the group. Notice on the 4-chair-scene part, the last chair is a bit broken? That's because it represents Seungri, the member who left bigbang. That's also why at the end, we can see 5 lines because originally they had 5 members. And the part where the line "Four seasons with no reason" was said. I've read that it meant, what was the meaning of continuing when they were not complete anymore? Something like that. I hope that makes sense but yeah.
Actually the 4 chairs are much more symbolic if you are going to incorporate the logo they've used at the end. Yes, they show 4 chairs but they have used the ot5 logo. My theory is that they don't want to continue as BIGBANG with only the 4 of them because they were MADE to be five(MADE is also literally the title of their album with a logo with five lines symbolizing each one). Also the kwon jiyong chair with the director in it is an old prop from gdragon's kwon ji yong album. Kwon ji yong for me can be considered an alter ego because the whole album and everything in it separates gd to jiyong. And gd walking away from it in the mv may symbolize him being the gdragon again we've known from the past??? I don't know anymore haha. And the person behind daesung is also him, he's just the younger him. What's interesting also is TOP's scene. He is a rabbit on the moon and it's very common among asian folklore tahat a rabbit on the moon symbolises rebirth, also referencing all his past issues. I just love the mv so much it speaks so much to the fans. Edit: omg im so ready to spit evidences but my co vips were already presenting receipts hhuhuhu luv u all keep educating people
Your theory better not be real, this is a new beginning for Bigbang, they deserve it so much, The FOUR of them. So much have paid for the criminal sins
It's beenn 4 days trying to understand this MV but we can't figure it out what does it really means .. am commenting on Deasung scene where he's looking at someone and then walking away so if u read the lyrics of this part there is a ''For the day, the moment that will come again someday "For you''" it could be they meant Seungri by it and then there's this Lalalalala part which in my opinion was supposed to be Seungri part too .. 😔 Okey am just sad they are talented they are BIGBANG they could've been the most popular band in the galaxy ..but it's still life 🌼
@@Shaddlez Burning Sun club was CLEARED of any illegal activity in 2019. Also, Yuri Holdings share in Burning Sun was 8% and Seungri's share in Yuri Holdings was 40% so he was hardly in the charge of management of the bar. Serious crimes? What are his charges?
I was waiting for your reaction coz u will point many theory and hints in the songs which is difficult to figure for many including me and also for dance therapy 💕
i'm a winner fan, but bigbang was my introduction to kpop and i even remember downloading haru haru on my phone with 4shared lol i think this comeback is not just emotional for VIPs, but for everyone who has past memories associated with bb 👍
I'm a VVIP and I have been following Seungri's case ever since it started (with help of Korean lawyers from VLM who explained lot of stuff about it very well and I also discussed it a lot with our firm's lawyer). But I don't want to talk about that, since Jordan was amazing enough to keep it aside and not disrespect him in the reaction. I wanna point out the symbolism - the 4 chairs (one on the right side broken) plus one for director - it's 4 members (Seungri as maknae on the right, broken, cause he can't be with them) and director seat for the leader. 4 flowers - if you look closely - G-Dragon is holding a fifth flower in his right hand. GD is also wearing a heart ring that is blue (Seungri's color in BB) and the ring is called Victorian ring if you look it up - Seungri's name literally means Victory and his Japanesse stage name is VI - you can see VI (mirrored) next to GDs director chair. Also to chairs once again - Daesung was sitting on it, but he didn't sit on the last one, cause he isn't maknae. GDs umbrella (black from outside, rainbow from inside) - GD once painted Ri with bright colors and then hid it under black, literally saying "you are behind this black". Daesung watching someone while singing "For the day, the moment that will come again someday (for you)" - which also indicates it's reffering to Seungri. And the line GD sings at the end of his first verse - 마침내 마치 넷이 못내 that YG translated as "finally the 4 at last" is incorrectly translated (according to Koreans) because 못내 is also the way to pronounce when a spacing is applied as 못 내, which literally means 'we can't do', 못 = can't, 내=comes from verd 내다, which a verb that indicates someone or something does a thing or a job with his/her/its capability. So the more accurate translation for that part would be "4 of us can't get through" or "4 of us can't do it anymore". So the conclusion VIPs came to was - it's goodbye until Seungri comes back. Also the 5 lines at the end - 3 goes right way representing GD, YB and Dae who are still with YG and together and 2 goes left way representing TOP and Seungri who left YG and the group for now.
I just realized, when TOP said in his prestige interview, he is not in line with the band's direction anymore, I think he meant he doesn't want to do group stuff if Bigbang is gonna go on as four anymore. And I'm pretty sure all the members feel the same way. They might be planning to go in solos for a while, until maknae can return.
i feel like they represent each season TAEYANG - spring (because the flowers already bloomed) GD - summer (the colors on his set gives me summery vibes) T.O.P. - winter (do i have to explain?) DAESUNG - autumn (the color seems so cold but it kinda feels warm at the some point idk, it just gives me that vibe
there is a theory where the last chair on the right (out of the 4) is broken, as a homage of Seungri, who left the group in 2019 due to a scandal. There is also a scene which shows their previous Made album, with the billboard and the word "Life" on it. They mention the feeling of missing someone in the lyrics "I keep remembering those glorious and loving days" which can also relate to how they miss him.
I've never seen this kind of professional analytical video for any music. I could catch what I missed out on this music video. YOU ARE INCREDIBLE Thank you sm!
If you're an OT5, I know you screamed when you saw the 5 lines at the end... IMO, the 4 chairs represents the 4 members and the director's chair of Jiyong is the 5th chair representing that he's the leader of the group. There's actually many symbolisms in the mv.
Ikr.... OT5 forever..... One might have done bad things but he still has a good side .... he was always good with V.I.Ps .... I respect him for that and I hope he comes back as a good person after reflecting..... Gdragon already cleared that Bigbang is ot5 or nothing , that is why none of them meet in any scene 😭
It’s bit late Ik but in Korea, people used to think there was a rabbit making a rice cake. Moon also meant that the loneliness it’s far away from Earth (everyone else) So since Top was wearing a rabbit hat and on the moon, we can assume he was bit lonely after all.
There is a past interview from BIGBANG MADE The Movie. The interviewer/reporter ask GDRAGON "What is BIGBANG members to you?" GDRAGON says, "BIGBANG is a square to me. Because four of them makes the square. But there are five of us, I am not counting myself." This seems like a reference to the 4 chairs and the Kwon Ji Yong Director chair.
Always the best reaction review and break down ! Thank you! I hope it’s not goodbye. I grew up listening to their music in school so it’s very nostalgic. There the OG first legendary kpop idols who are artists. There music is not typical kpop which I love they pushed the boundaries and set the trend musically.
2:40 Help, I LAUGHED SO HARD I ALMOST CHOKE ON THE AIR How can someone be so professionally cool yet ADORABLY HILARIOUS at the same time?!??!? Your reactions always make my day Jordan, thank you lots💗💗💗
This is song is just meaningful. I've known bigbang for a long time now way before I became a kpop fan. I think not just VIP's know what they've been through but also the whole kpop industry. They've been in scandals and tough points in their careers and the lyrics of the song shows how they're going to move on, but also missing those happy times. It's like they're also saying our past may be full of heartache but we can also find happiness in them.
I only listened to this song yesterday and it made me cry so much that wen it got to TOPs bit I had to turn it off as I just couldn't listen to it fully. It's not that I dislike it its opposite I love it its just that it made me feel sad and made me cry I just didn't realise how much I miss this group until this comeback. I love them so much as artists and people. They are such legends. This song is just so beautiful
*Thank you so much for this reaction. I've been waiting for this. THIS IS AN ART - THE SONG AND M/V ITSELF!!* *btw, I recommend "Bicycle" by Chungha!! The edits are insane especially on the rap part*
I'm going to throw out a crazy theory, it could be that GD has the director's chair with his name on it because from now on he will be a "producer" or "director" within YG, for example for new Treasure comebacks. Recently he was in a picture with Treasure members with the look of this MV (so it's recent), and so he becomes a new Teddy in YG.
It's just an intuitive guess, but I assume the director's chair simply means that G-Dragon provided the direction of the music video as he is deeply involved in his craft and has produced and written the music for BIGBANG ever since their debut. It's an emotional and tearful comeback for many fans, myself included, since so many of us have spent our teens and twenties growing up listening to BIGBANG, a group that has created great music since 15-16 years ago. A series of unfortunate events have stalled the long-awaited comeback, but I hope you too will be able to enjoy their upcoming (or past) music in whatever form that may be. That aside, thank you for teaching us about music video editing! It's so eye-opening and insightful. P.S. Fun fact: Big Bang were the first to introduce light sticks, theirs designed by G-Dragon.
YES! You noticed the yellow flowers = BB light sticks. I think you're the first reactor to point it out. 👍 Do you let the people in your classes do interpretative dance at the end too? 😆
As you mentioned DaeSung (the one with hair over his eyes) had somebody in his background. That represented him looking at younger himself. Also in his lyrics he sings goodbye to his youth. T.O.P is the only one out of the Earth, because he has already left YGEnt and he is the first one, who announced his plans from now on. In his lyrics he is burying his past times, when he tried to take his life, that’s why he is wearing the mask throughout his section. TaeYang and his ship covered with flowers might represent that his journey had finished, that he has already reach the destination. I assume this because he is married and has a child, so he might focus on family from now on/for a while. G-Dragon as a director means he is the leader and he has been leading that group the whole time. As the salm says, they have been through something (that’s why G-Dragon’s scene have signs saying: “wrong way” etc or DaeSung have a badge with “I am a mess”) and now they are thanking God/fans for their help and understanding. And for the end, and this is just my pure guess, their hairstyle reflect their season. TaeYang has longer hair but not that much long as it is started to grow as sprouts in spring. G-Dragon has the longest hair with many colours as colourful summer. DaeSung has pure brown with curls at the end as falling leaves. T.O.P has white foundation with aurora-like purple, which reminds me of a winter.
I actually didn't notice until now that the GD Director's Chair shot had one chair but four spotlights. The symbolism (to me) is that the other group members might be choosing to step away from the spotlight of BIGBANG to focus on their own activities (parenthood, other promotions, etc.), but GD, being the massive influence in Korean culture, as well as the driving force behind BIGBANG's music, must continue on as a public figure, and be the public carrier of the legacy of BIGBANG.
Just an interruption, Spring set symbolized Young-bae's current life where he is a father and a husband. GD is summer he has a lot of creative projects to share (fashion and etc) and GD is mostly the writer and producer of their song (all of them are so talented). I think this is the reason why he has the director chair and the lightstick :D and G-dragon designed it :D they are the 1st k-pop group to come up with it. Daesung is in Autumn still moving on and figuring out what to do next. and Top is in winter he is the most unique person in the group and he has ideas that are out of this world he was one of the top Art influence actually. I just love them since Haru-Haru days
I am not good at English. Please understand me roughly. Kwon Ji-yong's chair was used for 2017 GD Solo Album: Kwon Ji-yong. What the scene means is that it is glorious and missed. But left that place to clean up the past and go to the next step. and last scene(MADE LOGO) means just Made project has been completed.
The director chair and the entire set GD is on is from his solo tour MOTTE and there is the car from Zutter in the back. The photo is from the MV of Last Dance. There are many references of old songs and their past in this MV . There is a rabbit on the moon in Bae Bae . That monster mask of TOP reminds me of song Monster. La La is their debut song .
That particular yellow flower in Korea means Victory and honor. Obviously Seungri is missing and Seungri means Victory in Korean but it also represents the fans in which to Big Bang we have brought them and they brought us Honor, and it looks like our light sticks that’s a plus
I've read a theory , The four chairs and flowers represent "TOP, Tae, Dae and Riri, GD has his own chair with his name on it and he also has the fifth flower, the red one. Uri OT5
My guess on what the 4 chairs symbolizes means that this will be their last song as a group and going away one by one till there's no member left. This is such an emotional song😭😭😭 I love it so much!!!
They are is The Real KING OF KPOP and they deserved that. G-Dragon very talented person, he is born to be Superstar. No one KPop group can make a good listening very meaningful lyric like BIGBANG even the person can't speak english or also Korean I see people reaction to they new single release Still Life they're speachleas, amazing and crying because BIGBANG isn't group who only show they look or dancing but BIGBANG create very unforgettable song even they old song you can still enjoying and very good listening. They are Legendary King Of K-Pop 👑
Hey Jordan! As an editor myself and a bigbang fan ever since 2010, I'm not sure if you have reacted to Bigbang's Love Song MV. Very creative to be honest.
OMGGG I'm so glad you make this reaction!! How about you check out their other MV? I'm very curious about your though about Bigbang - Monster MV! Thank you so much Jordan!!
sadly Bigbang is back to say goodbye as a promise to fans for closure, before my excitement could last I'm grieving with sadness for their department 😭 to the great leader King GD, Bigbang is always 5 (even in this mv with 4 members there's 4 chairs + 1 GD's director chair n the mv ended with the same Bigbang's MADE logo of 5 horizontal lines), I'm missing them sooo much 🥺💔👑 🌸🙏
The Kings of kpop are back truely a masterpiece. Top is on the moon. There is a legend that there is a rabbit on the moon who sacrificed himself. Its full of symbolism. 4 chairs (one chipped) and 1 directors chair. Gdragon being the leader of bb. 3 out of 4 renewed their contract. Top left the agency but not bb. He is planning a soloalbum, a film and is releasing his winebrand. I think only they know what the future will hold.
In fact, Big Bang is an idol group that has gained popularity very rarely among idols. Idols are a fandom culture, so the more fans there are, the easier it is to top the charts. But this creates resistance from the general public. This is because even if the idol's song is not popular, it frequently topped the chart with the efforts of fans. That's why idols don't release popular music, but they make music that suits their colors. Therefore, Koreans do not like kpop to become famous all over the world because it is becoming less and more popular.(I love BTS very much, but if I can use them to give an example, consider the phenomenon in which BTS, a k-pop idol, releases a song with English lyrics, not Korean, and it tops the Korean music charts. Of course, I love their songs very much, but there are many people in Korea who do not understand English lyrics. This is definitely not popular.) Koreans think that the heyday of K-pop was in 2010, not the present. This is because all Korean idols did popular music suitable for Koreans. But that doesn't happen to the Big Bang. In Korea, there is a saying that if you don't know Big Bang's songs, you're a spy. This is half serious and half joking, but I also remember Big Bang's song when I was really young. I didn't know, but I knew most of Big Bang's songs. Big Bang is the only idol group in Korea that not only the title song but also all the tracks were on the chart. So for Koreans, Big Bang is an idol group of love and hate. Big Bang was controversial, but it is still one of the most beloved idol groups in Korea.
jordan, a former member of iz*one, eunbi, made a solo comeback with a song called "glitch", the mv is mesmerizing and it would be super nice if you made a reaction video!
I always wait for your reaction...you're a genius Jordan 😮💨...also that dude behind daesung is his younger self who was in that black and white shot (man still can't see ever since MADE era XD)...this song was their final goodbye as bigbang to us only aka the V.I.P (black and yellow squad)...you got it right when u interpreted those 4 empty chairs...big bang is awesome man... fun fact: they chose not to promote this song in Korea or anywhere...thus dropped the song at the end of the week as well as 00:00 kst when the charts are off...they just came back for the fans who were waiting on the flower road... taeyang's boat could symbolise him coming back to his fans after a long journey 👀 edit: that director chair with GD's name on it ...as he's the leader he has been directing bigbang throughout the show...their journey but now his job is done...hence the empty director chair
my personal theory is that, analyzing the frame, some of the last shots where no human or movements are more likely, each of them moving on from their position. like moving on, or moving forward. the empty 4 chair where daesung was, the empty director chair+stage is where gd was, empty space is where top was, and empty boat with yellow flower is where taeyang was. it can means that 'seasons' are moving and going, which means growth,and they move from their season's representative. also can means literally, like they moving forward from where they have been before. either leaving idol industry, or leaving group, or focusing on more solo, or retiring, or just moving from their youth era and back as a 'men' (?).

Actually the 4 chairs are much more symbolic if you are going to incorporate the logo they've used at the end. Yes, they show 4 chairs but they have used the ot5 logo. My theory is that they don't want to continue as BIGBANG with only the 4 of them because they were MADE to be five(MADE is also literally the title of their album with a logo with five lines symbolizing each one). Also the kwon jiyong chair with the director in it is an old prop from gdragon's kwon ji yong album. Kwon ji yong for me can be considered an alter ego because the whole album and everything in it separates gd to jiyong. And gd walking away from it in the mv may symbolize him being the gdragon again we've known from the past??? I don't know anymore haha. And the person behind daesung is also him, he's just the younger him. What's interesting also is TOP's scene. He is a rabbit on the moon and it's very common among asian folklore tahat a rabbit on the moon symbolises rebirth, also referencing all his past issues. I just love the mv so much it speaks so much to the fans.

It's beenn 4 days trying to understand this MV but we can't figure it out what does it really means .. am commenting on Deasung scene where he's looking at someone and then walking away so if u read the lyrics of this part there is a ''For the day, the moment that will come again someday "For you''" it could be they meant Seungri by it and then there's this Lalalalala part which in my opinion was supposed to be Seungri part too .. 😔
Okey am just sad they are talented they are BIGBANG they could've been the most popular band in the galaxy ..but it's still life 🌼
@@mischelka13131 look up the burning sun scandal. their missing 5th member was involved with some seriously evil criminal stuff
@@Shaddlez Burning Sun club was CLEARED of any illegal activity in 2019. Also, Yuri Holdings share in Burning Sun was 8% and Seungri's share in Yuri Holdings was 40% so he was hardly in the charge of management of the bar.
Serious crimes? What are his charges?
I was waiting for your reaction coz u will point many theory and hints in the songs which is difficult to figure for many including me and also for dance therapy 💕

It's here finally.
AWWWW IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE GOD DIRECTOR TO REACT TO THE KPOP GODS FOREVERRRRR.... FINALLY!!!!! BLESS YOUR SOUL
Why was IVE waiting for it?
Jk lol
@@username_19388 lmao, i got your jokes
i'm a winner fan, but bigbang was my introduction to kpop and i even remember downloading haru haru on my phone with 4shared lol i think this comeback is not just emotional for VIPs, but for everyone who has past memories associated with bb 👍
I'm a VVIP and I have been following Seungri's case ever since it started (with help of Korean lawyers from VLM who explained lot of stuff about it very well and I also discussed it a lot with our firm's lawyer). But I don't want to talk about that, since Jordan was amazing enough to keep it aside and not disrespect him in the reaction.
I wanna point out the symbolism - the 4 chairs (one on the right side broken) plus one for director - it's 4 members (Seungri as maknae on the right, broken, cause he can't be with them) and director seat for the leader.
4 flowers - if you look closely - G-Dragon is holding a fifth flower in his right hand.
GD is also wearing a heart ring that is blue (Seungri's color in BB) and the ring is called Victorian ring if you look it up - Seungri's name literally means Victory and his Japanesse stage name is VI - you can see VI (mirrored) next to GDs director chair.
Also to chairs once again - Daesung was sitting on it, but he didn't sit on the last one, cause he isn't maknae.
GDs umbrella (black from outside, rainbow from inside) - GD once painted Ri with bright colors and then hid it under black, literally saying "you are behind this black".
Daesung watching someone while singing "For the day, the moment that will come again someday (for you)" - which also indicates it's reffering to Seungri.
And the line GD sings at the end of his first verse - 마침내 마치 넷이 못내 that YG translated as "finally the 4 at last" is incorrectly translated (according to Koreans) because 못내 is also the way to pronounce when a spacing is applied as 못 내, which literally means 'we can't do', 못 = can't, 내=comes from verd 내다, which a verb that indicates someone or something does a thing or a job with his/her/its capability. So the more accurate translation for that part would be "4 of us can't get through" or "4 of us can't do it anymore". So the conclusion VIPs came to was - it's goodbye until Seungri comes back.
Also the 5 lines at the end - 3 goes right way representing GD, YB and Dae who are still with YG and together and 2 goes left way representing TOP and Seungri who left YG and the group for now.
I just realized, when TOP said in his prestige interview, he is not in line with the band's direction anymore, I think he meant he doesn't want to do group stuff if Bigbang is gonna go on as four anymore. And I'm pretty sure all the members feel the same way. They might be planning to go in solos for a while, until maknae can return.
Thankyou so much for your explanation. Ngl i got tears in my eye 💛
😢😢😢
Thank you so much for explaining this, i wonder is seungri still in prison? when do you think he's coming back?
@@rasasayangee he will be released on february 13th 2023 - if they won't grant him sooner release on parole.
i feel like they represent each season
TAEYANG - spring (because the flowers already bloomed)
GD - summer (the colors on his set gives me summery vibes)
T.O.P. - winter (do i have to explain?)
DAESUNG - autumn (the color seems so cold but it kinda feels warm at the some point
idk, it just gives me that vibe
Tae yang - Spring
GD - fall
Dae sung - summer
TOP - winter
there is a theory where the last chair on the right (out of the 4) is broken, as a homage of Seungri, who left the group in 2019 due to a scandal. There is also a scene which shows their previous Made album, with the billboard and the word "Life" on it. They mention the feeling of missing someone in the lyrics "I keep remembering those glorious and loving days" which can also relate to how they miss him.
I've never seen this kind of professional analytical video for any music. I could catch what I missed out on this music video. YOU ARE INCREDIBLE Thank you sm!
If you're an OT5, I know you screamed when you saw the 5 lines at the end... IMO, the 4 chairs represents the 4 members and the director's chair of Jiyong is the 5th chair representing that he's the leader of the group. There's actually many symbolisms in the mv.
Ikr.... OT5 forever..... One might have done bad things but he still has a good side .... he was always good with V.I.Ps .... I respect him for that and I hope he comes back as a good person after reflecting.....
Gdragon already cleared that Bigbang is ot5 or nothing , that is why none of them meet in any scene 😭
03:09 I think this is everyone's reaction to this part.
It’s bit late Ik but in Korea, people used to think there was a rabbit making a rice cake. Moon also meant that the loneliness it’s far away from Earth (everyone else) So since Top was wearing a rabbit hat and on the moon, we can assume he was bit lonely after all.
Nice reaction - thanks. Liked your comments. I often search for BIGBANG reactions, so don't know why this one hasn't come up before.
Thankyou Jordan. Ive been waiting for this Reaction. especially this part 4:03 - 4:27 💛
There is a past interview from BIGBANG MADE The Movie.
The interviewer/reporter ask GDRAGON "What is BIGBANG members to you?"
GDRAGON says, "BIGBANG is a square to me. Because four of them makes the square. But there are five of us, I am not counting myself."
This seems like a reference to the 4 chairs and the Kwon Ji Yong Director chair.
Always the best reaction review and break down ! Thank you! I hope it’s not goodbye. I grew up listening to their music in school so it’s very nostalgic. There the OG first legendary kpop idols who are artists. There music is not typical kpop which I love they pushed the boundaries and set the trend musically.
Always impressed on how you explain the story of the mv just by looking at the scenes and you are always spot on!
KINGS ARE BACK 👑💛👑💛👑💛👑💛👑💛
K-POP IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL I SWEAR MOVIES COULD NEVER BUT SMASING CONTENT
2:40
Help, I LAUGHED SO HARD I ALMOST CHOKE ON THE AIR
How can someone be so professionally cool yet ADORABLY HILARIOUS at the same time?!??!?
Your reactions always make my day Jordan, thank you lots💗💗💗
The Four Chairs is for T.O.P, Daesung, Taeyang and the broken chair for Seungri that already Left Bigbang
Where is the broken chair?
@@rae-ku6041 on the right side
I love this video on so many levels... Thanks for sharing.
This is song is just meaningful. I've known bigbang for a long time now way before I became a kpop fan. I think not just VIP's know what they've been through but also the whole kpop industry. They've been in scandals and tough points in their careers and the lyrics of the song shows how they're going to move on, but also missing those happy times. It's like they're also saying our past may be full of heartache but we can also find happiness in them.
We'll know that BIGBANG is just Epic.. No group can ever replace them..!! ✨❤️
As expected, I dont really enjoy watching reaction videos. But yours is so full of knowledge. Thank you so much
For real, I am looking for this reaction video man. Thank God
FIRST COMEBACK IN 4 YEARS 🥹THX FOR REACTING
Jordans videos really makes my day🥺✨
I only listened to this song yesterday and it made me cry so much that wen it got to TOPs bit I had to turn it off as I just couldn't listen to it fully.
It's not that I dislike it its opposite I love it its just that it made me feel sad and made me cry I just didn't realise how much I miss this group until this comeback.
I love them so much as artists and people.
They are such legends.
This song is just so beautiful
You slayed the dance therapy (as always) 😌
*Thank you so much for this reaction. I've been waiting for this. THIS IS AN ART - THE SONG AND M/V ITSELF!!*
*btw, I recommend "Bicycle" by Chungha!! The edits are insane especially on the rap part*
Thank you for your reaction!!!🙏
We stan BigBang. Forever a classic and legends forever ❤️
I'm going to throw out a crazy theory, it could be that GD has the director's chair with his name on it because from now on he will be a "producer" or "director" within YG, for example for new Treasure comebacks. Recently he was in a picture with Treasure members with the look of this MV (so it's recent), and so he becomes a new Teddy in YG.
It's just an intuitive guess, but I assume the director's chair simply means that G-Dragon provided the direction of the music video as he is deeply involved in his craft and has produced and written the music for BIGBANG ever since their debut. It's an emotional and tearful comeback for many fans, myself included, since so many of us have spent our teens and twenties growing up listening to BIGBANG, a group that has created great music since 15-16 years ago. A series of unfortunate events have stalled the long-awaited comeback, but I hope you too will be able to enjoy their upcoming (or past) music in whatever form that may be. That aside, thank you for teaching us about music video editing! It's so eye-opening and insightful.
P.S. Fun fact: Big Bang were the first to introduce light sticks, theirs designed by G-Dragon.
Jordan’s jaw drop when they revealed TOP was my same exact reaction 😂
BIGBANG IS BACK HITS DIFFERENT
Oh my God, you're so nice, your videos are a pleasure to watch
and thanks for reacting to bigbang
YES! You noticed the yellow flowers = BB light sticks. I think you're the first reactor to point it out. 👍
Do you let the people in your classes do interpretative dance at the end too? 😆
Finally they released it and im so happy about it i was waiting for so long
As you mentioned DaeSung (the one with hair over his eyes) had somebody in his background.
That represented him looking at younger himself.
Also in his lyrics he sings goodbye to his youth.
T.O.P is the only one out of the Earth, because he has already left YGEnt and he is the first one, who announced his plans from now on.
In his lyrics he is burying his past times, when he tried to take his life, that’s why he is wearing the mask throughout his section.
TaeYang and his ship covered with flowers might represent that his journey had finished, that he has already reach the destination. I assume this because he is married and has a child, so he might focus on family from now on/for a while.
G-Dragon as a director means he is the leader and he has been leading that group the whole time.
As the salm says, they have been through something (that’s why G-Dragon’s scene have signs saying: “wrong way” etc or DaeSung have a badge with “I am a mess”) and now they are thanking God/fans for their help and understanding.
And for the end, and this is just my pure guess, their hairstyle reflect their season.
TaeYang has longer hair but not that much long as it is started to grow as sprouts in spring.
G-Dragon has the longest hair with many colours as colourful summer.
DaeSung has pure brown with curls at the end as falling leaves.
T.O.P has white foundation with aurora-like purple, which reminds me of a winter.
I actually didn't notice until now that the GD Director's Chair shot had one chair but four spotlights. The symbolism (to me) is that the other group members might be choosing to step away from the spotlight of BIGBANG to focus on their own activities (parenthood, other promotions, etc.), but GD, being the massive influence in Korean culture, as well as the driving force behind BIGBANG's music, must continue on as a public figure, and be the public carrier of the legacy of BIGBANG.
Just an interruption, Spring set symbolized Young-bae's current life where he is a father and a husband. GD is summer he has a lot of creative projects to share
(fashion and etc) and GD is mostly the writer and producer of their song (all of them are so talented). I think this is the reason why he has the director chair and the lightstick :D and G-dragon designed it :D they are the 1st k-pop group to come up with it. Daesung is in Autumn still moving on and figuring out what to do next. and Top is in winter he is the most unique person in the group and he has ideas that are out of this world he was one of the top Art influence actually.
I just love them since Haru-Haru days
This music video has such a beautiful symbolism! 🙏🏽🌱☀️🍁❄️
I am not good at English. Please understand me roughly.
Kwon Ji-yong's chair was used for 2017 GD Solo Album: Kwon Ji-yong. What the scene means is that it is glorious and missed. But left that place to clean up the past and go to the next step. and last scene(MADE LOGO) means just Made project has been completed.
Excited 💫💜
The director chair and the entire set GD is on is from his solo tour MOTTE and there is the car from Zutter in the back. The photo is from the MV of Last Dance. There are many references of old songs and their past in this MV . There is a rabbit on the moon in Bae Bae . That monster mask of TOP reminds me of song Monster. La La is their debut song .
this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard
Thankyou for your amazing reaction as always 🤗
VIP really thankyou 👑💛🤝
That particular yellow flower in Korea means Victory and honor. Obviously Seungri is missing and Seungri means Victory in Korean but it also represents the fans in which to Big Bang we have brought them and they brought us Honor, and it looks like our light sticks that’s a plus
I enjoyed this so much!
I've read a theory , The four chairs and flowers represent "TOP, Tae, Dae and Riri, GD has his own chair with his name on it and he also has the fifth flower, the red one. Uri OT5
YES.... TOP got me emotional!!!!
Always going back to ur channel. So good how you reacted to Bigbang, “Still Life”.
Brooo This comeback was AmAzInG
Gone for 4 yrs. Glad they’re back!!!
Sir Jordan’s MV reactions are the best!!!
ty for the content this week
BIGBANG!!!! True musicians!!!!!
My guess on what the 4 chairs symbolizes means that this will be their last song as a group and going away one by one till there's no member left. This is such an emotional song😭😭😭 I love it so much!!!
thanks for this video. BIGBANG IS BACK YALLLLLL
YOUR VIDEOS ARE JUST SO AWESOME AND FUN TO WATCH.... AND ALSO INFORMATIVE.... YOU ARE SIMPLY *AMAZING*
I vibe with your humor, Jordan. Thanks for reacting to BigBang. ❤️
They are is The Real KING OF KPOP and they deserved that. G-Dragon very talented person, he is born to be Superstar. No one KPop group can make a good listening very meaningful lyric like BIGBANG even the person can't speak english or also Korean I see people reaction to they new single release Still Life they're speachleas, amazing and crying because BIGBANG isn't group who only show they look or dancing but BIGBANG create very unforgettable song even they old song you can still enjoying and very good listening. They are Legendary King Of K-Pop 👑
Hey Jordan! As an editor myself and a bigbang fan ever since 2010, I'm not sure if you have reacted to Bigbang's Love Song MV. Very creative to be honest.
I love them legends
Waited for this reaction and of course the dance therapy 🤩
You've got to be best in all reaction videos I've watched for Still Life. 😍
OMGGG I'm so glad you make this reaction!! How about you check out their other MV? I'm very curious about your though about Bigbang - Monster MV! Thank you so much Jordan!!
This was really beautiful unlike Don’t Call Me by Shinee this has a sad tone into this I felt crying while watching this so Thank you 🙏🏼
THE KING IS BACK!
Bigbang is finally back Sir Jordan!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰
This is such a good review.
THANKSSSS
참...범죄만 안저질럿으면...참 좋은 그룹으로 남앗을텐데...어릴적 레전드그룹이엇는데...좋아햇다...사랑햇다...
sadly Bigbang is back to say goodbye as a promise to fans for closure, before my excitement could last I'm grieving with sadness for their department 😭 to the great leader King GD, Bigbang is always 5 (even in this mv with 4 members there's 4 chairs + 1 GD's director chair n the mv ended with the same Bigbang's MADE logo of 5 horizontal lines), I'm missing them sooo much 🥺💔👑 🌸🙏
Possibly in T.O.P.'s part they played the song while he was filming that then they'll sync the audio based on the music in the surroundings.
The Kings of kpop are back truely a masterpiece. Top is on the moon. There is a legend that there is a rabbit on the moon who sacrificed himself. Its full of symbolism. 4 chairs (one chipped) and 1 directors chair. Gdragon being the leader of bb. 3 out of 4 renewed their contract. Top left the agency but not bb. He is planning a soloalbum, a film and is releasing his winebrand.
I think only they know what the future will hold.
In fact, Big Bang is an idol group that has gained popularity very rarely among idols. Idols are a fandom culture, so the more fans there are, the easier it is to top the charts. But this creates resistance from the general public. This is because even if the idol's song is not popular, it frequently topped the chart with the efforts of fans. That's why idols don't release popular music, but they make music that suits their colors. Therefore, Koreans do not like kpop to become famous all over the world because it is becoming less and more popular.(I love BTS very much, but if I can use them to give an example, consider the phenomenon in which BTS, a k-pop idol, releases a song with English lyrics, not Korean, and it tops the Korean music charts. Of course, I love their songs very much, but there are many people in Korea who do not understand English lyrics. This is definitely not popular.) Koreans think that the heyday of K-pop was in 2010, not the present. This is because all Korean idols did popular music suitable for Koreans.
But that doesn't happen to the Big Bang. In Korea, there is a saying that if you don't know Big Bang's songs, you're a spy. This is half serious and half joking, but I also remember Big Bang's song when I was really young. I didn't know, but I knew most of Big Bang's songs. Big Bang is the only idol group in Korea that not only the title song but also all the tracks were on the chart. So for Koreans, Big Bang is an idol group of love and hate. Big Bang was controversial, but it is still one of the most beloved idol groups in Korea.
They're not quitting it's a goodbye to the past and a hi for a new beginning
Can't wait to see another dance therapy 😹🔥
jordan, a former member of iz*one, eunbi, made a solo comeback with a song called "glitch", the mv is mesmerizing and it would be super nice if you made a reaction video!
GDRAGON is KWON JI YONG
JI = G
YONG = DRAGON (Yong means Dragon in Korean)
Thanks for react my idol, they come back after five years of hiatus T_T
I always wait for your reaction...you're a genius Jordan 😮💨...also that dude behind daesung is his younger self who was in that black and white shot (man still can't see ever since MADE era XD)...this song was their final goodbye as bigbang to us only aka the V.I.P (black and yellow squad)...you got it right when u interpreted those 4 empty chairs...big bang is awesome man...
fun fact: they chose not to promote this song in Korea or anywhere...thus dropped the song at the end of the week as well as 00:00 kst when the charts are off...they just came back for the fans who were waiting on the flower road... taeyang's boat could symbolise him coming back to his fans after a long journey 👀
edit: that director chair with GD's name on it ...as he's the leader he has been directing bigbang throughout the show...their journey but now his job is done...hence the empty director chair
i didn't even know them much but i'm tearing up :,))
BIGBANG IS TRUE KINGS
OF KPOP G DRAGON KING👑👑👑👑👑👑
my personal theory is that, analyzing the frame, some of the last shots where no human or movements are more likely, each of them moving on from their position. like moving on, or moving forward. the empty 4 chair where daesung was, the empty director chair+stage is where gd was, empty space is where top was, and empty boat with yellow flower is where taeyang was. it can means that 'seasons' are moving and going, which means growth,and they move from their season's representative. also can means literally, like they moving forward from where they have been before. either leaving idol industry, or leaving group, or focusing on more solo, or retiring, or just moving from their youth era and back as a 'men' (?).
