Ok so basically i’m pretty sure Hoyeon (the girl acting in Cool With You) was like Eros in the sense that she could make people fall in love, but in the process she falls in love with a human herself, Micol. However, nobody can see her. So she keeps her eyes on Micol so that he doesn’t fall in love with anybody else she looks at. The only way she can be seen is if she is seen in the rain. She does it at the end up Side A, and her and Micol get together. But I’m assuming what seems to be her higher-up comes to find her in Side B. He makes Micol fall in love with another woman, and Hoyeon returns to her invisible form, forced to see her love turn eyes to somebody else while she is also reminded of her job of making people fall in love.
the painting is called Cupid and Psyche by François-Édouard Picot. So the mv revisited this story with a gender-bender/alternative ending kinda vibe. Really creative and beautiful and a lovely nod to past art like the painting and Greek mythology. As a goddess, she has made people fall in love without ever being aware of what it feels like. She's jaded, just going about it like a person goes to work. But then she sees the painting and hears from the museum tour guide (Danielle) the story of Cupid and Psyche. So she becomes entranced with the idea of possibly experiencing it herself. I think her standing in the rain is a symbol of her shedding her immortality to become a human for love. But side B is about the human nature of living within reality, not being completely in control of spiritual forces like love. Would you give up being able to control love just to experience it?
@@soobub They could be anything, really. Most likely they could be Erotes. They are winged gods associated with love and are under Aphrodite's retinue (aka. Her servants). They are seen as young boys or babies with wings. Throughout the MV they follow Hoyeon, keeping an eye on her presumably under The Old Man's (Aphrodite's) order. Based off of this we can interpret NewJeans dancing at the end of the MV as The Old Man's way of taunting Hoyeon for wanting love. In this context, NewJeans serve as antagonists in the story. Or they could be Muses. They are seen as personifications of song, dance and literature. The disney movie, Hercules, has their version of the muses have 5 members, and they serve as the narrators of the movie. Maybe this could apply here as well? (I doubt it though).
cool with you is a metaphor eluding to the story of cupid (hoyeon), the psyche (micol), and venus (tony). this is the painting of love and psyche they were looking at in the beginning. newjeans are her guardian angels i believe, because they are the only ones that can see her. hoyeon is cupid, her job is making people fall in love. but she starts wanting love for herself too and fell in love with a human- micol. and she abandons her job and just follows him around hopelessly. he can't see her, no humans can see her. (confirmed when hoyeon looks in the mirror and she has no reflection) at the end of side a, where she takes her clothing off in the rain and looks up at sky, it symbolizes her asking to become human; this is her own way of striking herself w cupid's arrow. side b picks off where side a ends, she is now human and we can see that because her clothes changes from an ethereal, flowy black fabric to regular human-like clothing, and people can now see her-- micol can see her. they start falling in love throughout side b. at the end, tony (venus/aphrodite) takes revenge by making hoeyon into a cupid again- thus nullifying her human status meaning micol can't see her and he forgets about the time they shared. ultimately tony made him fall in love with someone else (that girl on the street) because she disobeyed her job as cupid its such a heartbreakingly beautiful music video, with a deep meaning and a retelling of mythology. everyone wants love and deserves love, whether they are human or otherworldly deity/being
i saw a comment that said “But Hanni said that getup is just a sample for their next comeback. Hope we can get full song on next comeback” So maybe we will get it next comeback 🥲
This MV based on the Greek mythical story of Eros and Psyche, Hoyeon's role with a good performance representing Eros and a male actor representing Psyche. Eros, who was hard at falling in love with others, falls in love with Psyche, but there is a scene in which Lieung, the role of Aphrodite who hated Psyche in the myth, interferes. And it's my interpretation and opinion on this MV N the 5 members of Newjeans who are watching this can be interpreted as Five angels! the real ANGEL. haha ADOR MIN HEE JIN N MV director Shin has made a magical piece~~!!
I think the girls are the muses(like in hercules movie) because at the beginning we saw Danielle showcase a painting and because the muses are usually the ones who are the observers
If we pay attention to why "get up" sounds at the beginning of the right side of the earphone, it is because it is telling you to follow the song, basically its like looking for where the music is coming from, and that is reflected when the actress in the credits walks to the end of the hallway but when the music of new jeans sounds on the right side of the earphone, the actress also hears that and decides to follow the music, in the scene it is clearly seen that she turns to the right following the song, and when she meets the source of the sound, that is new jeans, that is when we hear the song completely from both earphones.... yeah, it's awesome how they play with all our senses in the new jeans MVs hahaha 🤭
ASAP to me is too short, but still I like the direction of the song. a lot of their songs on the album features UK garage mixed with jersey club/euro beats- its genre bending. but ASAP is a different feeling. to end off the album, they gave us a funky but soft song with multiple beat changes. its different to all the other songs and following get up's change of pace; it worked perfectly. i love it. im sure after more listens you'll grow to like it
That IS the girl from squid game lmao. Jung Hoyeon. She’s a model and actress. The guy with the gray hair in the video was in ShangChi and he’s a popular actor.
If you want more understand mv for Cool With You, you need read mythology about Eros and Psyche. Hoyeon(squid game girl) is Eros/Cupid, this human guy was Psyche and Tony(silver hair) was Aphrodite/Venus. I think they just change the ending cuz they want this story more painful or sad ??? Don’t know but for sure that paint on the back is about them
hahahaha, she is the same girl in squid game, her name is Hoyeon. She's very tall actually but in squid game she does look smaller. ++ BTW, the guy in white hair is Tony Leung, legendary HK actor.
the way i understood the mv is that hoyeon is sort of like a cupid? she makes people fall in love. and she starts falling for the guy who can’t see her and she’s absolutely fascinated with him. newjeans are watching her concerned since she isn’t allowed to love humans and they also take a role of a “greek chorus” who kinda act like narrators. and at the end of the first mv she takes off the clothes which make her invisible, that’s why when she’s wearing normal clothes he can see her and they probably have a relationship of sorts? and tony leung seems to be like an equivalent of a “higher up” among the mythical beings which forbids hoyeon from loving the man and makes it so he can’t see her anymore and her presence makes him fall in love with the other girl
Tony Leung seems to play Aphrodite, calling back Cupid (or Eros) to her duty by making Psyche forgetting everything about his loving memories of Cupid. If you enjoy the painting, it's called "L'Amour et Psyché" by François-Édouard Picot. The symbolism is pretty cool in certain scenes: - Cupid getting naked, she discards her clothes as she abandons her godly/angelic nature to appear to Psyche's eyes - Aphrodite erases Psyche's memories of Cupid at a pedestrian crossing, when Cupid tries to get to her lover, she literally crosses from the human's world to her former one.
K-dramas are full of stories bored eternal deities wanting to be loved. 'Doom At Your Service' was about a young woman romancing the incarnation of doom itself.
ITS SO FUNNY WATCHING PEOPLE REACT TO ART FILMS LIKE THE COOL WITH YOU MV AND SEE THEM BE CONFUSED CUZ YOU CAN TELL WHO'S A FILM LOVER AND WHO ISN'T CUZ THE PLOT WAS CLEAR ON FIRST WATCH
im pretty sure that the tall girl in "cool with you" (Hoyeon) is supposed to be Cupid. She makes people fall in love and hold hands as it is shown, but nobody can see her bc shes not human. I think the painting they were looking at is a painting of Cupid and his wife Psyche, who is human, and in the mythology, Cupid shouldnt have fell in love with a human but he couldn't help it, so it was forbidden in a sense. Then we see that guy and Hoyeon looking at the painting, and Hoyeon takes the part of Cupid and falls in love with that guy(who is metaphorically 'Psyche', because hes just a human). In the end of side A, she strips to her "human form" so she can fall in love with the guy. And they do end up being happy for a while, until that unknown older man finds out about Cupid's wrongdoings (falling in love with a human), so to make things right he makes Hoyeon invisible again and erases the guy's memories of her(making him fall in love with another woman). thats just my theory, i hope im right about the mythology too. also, i think the New jeans girls are supposed to represent some sort of angels here? because they kept watching Hoyeon, maybe they snitched on her wrongdoings to the old man👀 sorry for the long explanation, i hope my theory is correct and cleared things up a bit. 😅
When I first saw Asap's teaser, I was looking forward to what it would be like, but after listening to it fully, I was disappointed. The part that was spoilt in the teaser was the best and most worthwhile part of the song, but it was still not enough. Specifically, the tickta tickta tickta part was building up and then suddenly sprayed like a ball being stabbed by a needle. And now I also understand why it's just a B-side and not a title =)))). No need to tell me about the genre of this song because I know what it is and have heard a lot about it :v. However, excluding Asap, this album is excellent; I love how they make these MVs and incorporate the stories into these MVs. My favorite songs are Cool with you and Get up, ETA, but unfortunately, Get up is just an interlude. Really hope the company rethinks and makes Get up long version.
😩 Get Up would have been the best song on the album if they actually did a song for it! ASAP dis probably my favorite song. I’m not a huge fan of this comeback. Not a huge fan of the house sound. If they leaned more towards the jersey mix side I would of been all in. I agree though all the song didn’t have enough substance… 2 minutes is not enough.
Yes she indeed helped greatly with these genres get mainstream attention in the media which is why we’re starting to see more Kpop artists adopt certain elements of the sound due to the increase in trend popularity. Newjeans has a very nice take on this sound imo it suits them so well
No bc I've seen just about every reaction to cool with you and everyone is confused and can only surmise is bc they're jamming too hard to the song bc the videos lay it on thick
Rjk I really love your reactions but to understand NewJeans you should not look for literally the meaning of the actions, you should look them in a different perspective. Like, what does it matter who is Eva for example HAHAAHAH the thing is that her boyfriend is with another girl
Sadly this entire was lacking (not bad), short and just didn't do enough for me. Im not a new jeans stan, but i definitely enjoyed all of their first songs much better. i could never see myself looking for these songs again by choice.

I personally think the "higher-up" represents Aphrodite in the Eros and Psyche story

so would newjeans be anything in the story? or just there because it’s them

"New Jeans" is the prologue, "Super Shy" "Cool With You" and "ETA" are the three leads track, "Get Up" is the Interlude and "ASAP" is the epilogue

(Pure confusion) “what???”
Head bobbing
“Who is that man?”
Back to head bobbing
“What is going on?!”
Grooving intensifies
😂😂😂
pretty much 😂
I'm so mad Get up is not a full song😭
Yes! We need a longer version. I was on Spotify and got frustrated that it's so short...
i saw a comment that said “But Hanni said that getup is just a sample for their next comeback.
Hope we can get full song on next comeback”
So maybe we will get it next comeback
🥲
@@w.s.p.y9756 That's right, there are rumors that Get Up full version will be included in their first full album later this year
Yes she is from squid game, you where right . She is so pretty I love her acting here too .

ADOR MIN HEE JIN N MV director Shin has made a magical piece~~!!
Also the scene where she is in the rain naked is representing she washing away her power so she can fall in love
no angels in greek myth tho lol. they seem more like a greek chorus, by their role and dress.
I think the girls are the muses(like in hercules movie) because at the beginning we saw Danielle showcase a painting and because the muses are usually the ones who are the observers
Lmaoooo the confusion RJ had throughout all 3 videos was ME 🥲😂😂 the concepts are so cool I love it!

ETA is definitely the best off this album I’m addicted. And ASAP is getting an mv
that is hoyeon who was in squid game. you are right
NewJeans is full of arts. Love it, so fresh & clean for K-Pop industry
illit better newjeans flop now
@@tamkju12 who the hell?
@@tamkju12 the group that is made to be pdf file bait? they need more vocal lessons lol to appease their audience of 30 year old men
ASAP took a second listen before it clicked for me, I suggest to listen to it again because it really hit different after the first listen
Sooo relieved that I was not the only one who couldn't get the meaning of Cool with you MV😂
ASAP is at the end of the album, so it's like an ending.
ASAP to me is too short, but still I like the direction of the song. a lot of their songs on the album features UK garage mixed with jersey club/euro beats- its genre bending. but ASAP is a different feeling. to end off the album, they gave us a funky but soft song with multiple beat changes. its different to all the other songs and following get up's change of pace; it worked perfectly. i love it. im sure after more listens you'll grow to like it

I just love the exchange of genders on Eros/Cupid, Psyche & Aphrodite
ASAP MV will come out the 26th!!
25 July
ASAP was good song for me to study at my room😭❤
Look up the mythology of cupid and psyche which is what cool with you is about

I'm wondering if these songs make more of an artistic statement in the context of the album order..
Yess she is from squid game!
Asap not what I expected..
Watch the making of video for Cool with You
How noone gets it? Like i knew the meaning right away
btw, that is the girl from squid game ! 😭

they are cupid.... woman cupid love human... but...
Yeah she is from squid game youre right
