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 is the most destructive industry to the planet apart from 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 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 punk rock meets K-Pop. Not their usual spiel, but a very good progression. It takes a couple of listens to really appreciate it.
oi pessoa! Gahyeon AND Eclipse Moonstar on the wall, that is a very very good wall. Thanks for the reaction, this was fun =) I hope you've had the chance the check out the rest of the album and some live performances by now, the whole album is incredible, and the amount of fun the girls have been having with this one has been great to see (Siyeon's amount of fun in particular is almost criminal, good god), and their growth is on full display. This feels like a second Scream, in a sense that it feels that much different from everything that's come before, and in the amount of new people checking Dreamcatcher out and becoming new fans. Have a good one, and happy holidays!
oie! i loooove the EP, especially "shatter" and the live performances are always on point! and i agree, siyeon is slaying so hard this cb :D i love ur comparison to scream, this makes me excited for what deukae have cooking for us next. happy holidays to u too!!

Dreamcatcher It is still on the ROCK genre spectrum.... alternative rock.... rock has almost 40 subgenres.
Yep. There's punk and industrial rock in there, along with the pop.
