If you look the saturated field is from Hellevator, the bird is from Miroh, the tunnel is from My Pace, the moons are from side effects, and the streets/scars on Minho, Hyunjin, and I.N are from Double Knot. The small bits of choreography we see are from side effects(Felix and Hyunjin) and Mirror(Changbin and Hyunjin). Also that is Mirror not Miroh(and feel free to comment to add more since I probably missed somethings). Love ya Ben keep doing what you’re doing.😊
I think the whole idea of there videos is that there is two separate worlds, a world where they rely on oneself or one other person/significant other and where they rely on each other as a team, the whole idea behind the Astronaut and all the times we see Hyunjin running and I.N finally realizing it, I think it’s that Chan was calling out to him to come to his world where they rely on each other. He also tells Hyunjin to get everyone together which is why there is different locations. A possible explanation behind MIROH is that they have to overthrow the government because they would lock them into the prison from District 9 in order to achieve their goals.
This song is probably the one that made me cry the most. I’m going through stuff right now and the message of this hit me hard because it’s a lot about being yourself and that’s what I need right now. And your reactions to Felix are so relatable omg.
So Clé is a trilogy, we have Clé: Miroh, Clé: Yellow Wood, and this one Clé: Levanter. They’re all connected somehow and that ending, “step out of Clé”I have theories about. 1) it could just be a play on their slogan (step out! Hello, we are stray kids!) or 2) it could mean that they finally accept themselves and realize that they don’t have to fit into society but rather be themselves (“I wanna be myself”) Clé represents the society they live in (Miroh) so they try to escape to a different world, only to find that it has side effects (Yellow Wood) so they return back and leave the “New World” behind. In this one, they realize they don’t have to be what society expects them to be and can just be themselves and not care about the judgement of others (Levanter). as for the word Levanter itself, it also holds some meaning as yes, it’s an eastern wind in the Mediterranean, but it derives from a word meaning “the rising sun” so all this time, they’ve been living in a world with two moons, which represents that they have to make a fateful choice, being that they can stay in the New World or face the hardships of the old world and solve the issue. but now, they’ve made the choice and accepted themselves to be who they really are and the illusion of judgement and fear has melted away into a land of the rising sun.
Ben Felix is my bias too! I’m so happy with this comeback, it’s just what I needed and the album’s great too! I think it’s what we all needed right now. Some other good music videos you should watch: Mirror-performance video (some of the dance in this, when Changbin is rapping, looks like choreo from Mirror) I Am You Yayaya- one of their performances that they did as rookies on the Stray Kids show Boxer- a street version video Of course there are more, but those are some of my faves. Thanks!
The building thats on fire ,well at least i believe is them setting fire to the Hellavator,whose video also gave off a vibe of uncertainty to who they are as people as it gave birth to their debut which was I Am Not whih was them trying to make it clear about the fact that they are unsure of who they are and were tired of being told who they are but then in their comeback I Am Who whih was then struggling to figure out who they are ,feeling uncertain and a bit shaken by the fact that they still havent found themselves and wondering if they should listen to others interpretation of them or actually decide to brave through the struggles and scariness that will come wth searching for the answers themselves and finding it . But that kinda maybe just me and what i believe. With this video and what im seeing i kinda think this its them finally understanding themselves . Not necesarily knowing who they are completely because as humans we are always changing but finally figuring out that no matter the change there are always certain parts of ourselves that we take into each stage of growth in the future ...but dont quote me on it. JUST MY IPINION. Kinda letting go of parts of themselves that always listened to the negative comments and focassing on the parts that always pushed them forward. But its still early more theories are still formulating
This album means so much to Stay, and honestly this is something we all really needed right now. We are so damn proud of our boys. Thank you for reacting to this, Ben, it's very much appreciated 💙🌴
I love stray kids, they just always know how to get you, they never make a bad song, ever. Voices is still my favourite Stray Kids song, if you haven't heard it yet Ben, you really really need to check it out
Levanter is the name of a specific wind in the Mediterranean and the Korean name 바람 means wind idk what that’s has to do with the music video though xD
This is why Stray Kids is my ult group. They never fail to make good music, ever. I love all of their songs, like legit there isn’t a single one that I don’t like.
There has literally never been a song from Stray Kids that I have not loved. I have been listening to them for almost a year now, and they are now my forever and always ultimate group. They always find a way to express experiences that many people have, but can't express themselves. I cried at this song, knowing how much they must have gone through, and are still going through, to get to where they are today.
I have never been this early for a reaction Ben, but I was not disappointed, you're literally my favourite reactor for literally anything, thank you so much Ben!!!!
Everytime I've got a bad day I come here to watch this reaction. Yours: "Is that gonna be.. Boy you better shut up. I'm glad I've paused…" always make me laugh. Thank you :) Warm greetings from Poland.
Levanter is actually the name of an easterly wind, which comes and goes, and represents the SKZ's feeling of letting go - of a dream, a love, or even a person. But unlike its sad meaning, SKZ make it sound hopeful and full of possibilities. Even if they had to let go of some(one), they will still grow and continue to thrive. Its a beautiful song :)
In The Alchemist a Levanter is a strong force that symbolizes a change or transformation. I think in this songs case it’s the change from relying on others to helping others.
Ben, Imma be honest with you: I've literally been binging all your skz reactions from the beginning, and each time you say that *THIS* is gonna be your fav song on each video lmao... It's honestly so lovable. I love your reactions 😊❤️
Levanter is like an overall Straykids songs combined together and the choreography too😍😍😍 it's like the conclusions of their life story they want to be themselves...as Felix said "it's all good now"...but so sad coz at the end of their journey Woojin not with them.,.like at the last part of the video when they enter the door I.N like he's waiting for someone...I felt his waiting for Woojin 😭😭😭
Awe Ben... great reaction...I’m proud of you for still making a video after what happened yesterday..... Hope you’re feeling a lot better :’) Also congrats on being a Felix Stan AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE 🤣
You can just go with "Param" (it means "wind") - ironically, the Korean title is easier to pronounce xD (Levanter is a type of wind by the way)....I just wanted to say that "blow me away" was extra appropriate here! ;)
Also, that's real fire and not cgi. In both scenes...the ticket burning and also the elevator burning. Chan and changbin said this in a channel+ vlive they held yesterday
levanter comes from Levant which is a mediterranean wind. Thx for reacting! Stray kids definitely gave the best of them on this comeback and the full album is so good! I hope this one will reach the top in Korea! To increase their popularity there also!
I definitely see how someone would associate it with the predebut Mixtape. There was the field and there was the part where two people mirrored each other like in the Mirror performance video off that same album.
LEVANTER is a name of a wind in MEDITERRANEAN sea from east to west and CHAN felt things very special with LEVANTER and a ment:THE WIND IS BLOWING AND IM GONNA LIVE the video has been opened in other languages so you can search STRAY KIDS LEVANTER INTRO VIDEO and watch it. actually it made me cry as a fanㅠ.ㅠ
It's not a crazy idea that thing about an antithesis of Hellevator. Levanter is the final one of an trilogy, so covers a lot of significance behind the video. They used side effects' place, miroh's place (when they are in a street with columns), Hellevator's meadow (the purple one) and probably other things that I haven't even seen yet. Thank you for react to them! although it stresses me that you paused the video every three seconds lol lov u
Bearing in mind that the New World reference on the ticket or whatever it was, one of the number plates in the Side Effects MV (not sure if you've seen this yet or not? can't remember) had a reference to the book Brave New World, so presumably the idea is that in Side Effects they were heading to the New World? And maybe in this MV they decided they didn't need to go there anymore? Maybe?
Theories: - hellavator going to District 9 aka SKZ own world.. they puzzled with miroh passed by the unknown road (yellow wood) and looked for the key ... levanter --- they found the key and UNLOCK the District 9... and thus the tagline ---- STEP OUT! Compass are STAY.. they found their way through stay..
This is the end of the Clé era hence "Step Out Of Clé". Their previous mvs ended with "The Owners of Clé". The setting in this reminds me of Hellevator (idk if you've seen it yet) and I *think* Lévanter is a mythical creature (the bird)but I could be wrong. I just guessed cause u kept seeing pictures of giant birds this comeback. And I don't know if you've heard Clé 3 album yet but there was an intro for it(Road Not Taken)which was so badass and epic but it was only 1 minute long. Stays have been begging for a full version and we got that this comeback 😁
Album's name is Clé 3 : Levanter Tracklist - STOP - Double Knot - Levanter - Booster - Astronaut - Sunshine - You Can STAY The third album (and last maybe?) from Clé Series. Clé 1 : MIROH Clé 2 : YELLOW WOODS
No-one:

YES!
oh wow I missed the Mirror one thanks :)

*sees felix*
"yeah i am not fully straight"
same dude, same

My mind: " shes hot"
noona do you have a boyfriend?
let me take you to a restaurant (restaurant)
Cause I'm a nice guy who just has a lot of money wHoO
Lemme take ya to a restaurant
With a smirk, I suddenly enter
Levanter means a strong gust of wind or something like that, which is why the korean title is "바람" which means wind
It's a wind in the Mediterranean... I wanna say an easterly wind?

Great theories on Clé ❤️ with deep meaning within it.
Nice theories 😊
Clé is "key" in French, they did it on purpose ?
petition to get felix to react to this
Yeah I think there are many Felix stans in our fandom... Not gonna complain, I’m one too, and he deserves it 😁
Ben Felix is my bias too! I’m so happy with this comeback, it’s just what I needed and the album’s great too! I think it’s what we all needed right now.
Some other good music videos you should watch:
Mirror-performance video (some of the dance in this, when Changbin is rapping, looks like choreo from Mirror)
I Am You
Yayaya- one of their performances that they did as rookies on the Stray Kids show
Boxer- a street version video
Of course there are more, but those are some of my faves. Thanks!
4:26 me analyzing my “theories”😂🤦🏻♀️
Felix: it's all good now
me : I'm in the heaven ✨
7:59 with men like felix in the world, no man is.
8:00 LMFAO 💀
honestly this comeback slapped me in the face this is probably one my fav skz albums
"blow me away as you always tend to do" - the accidental pun he made XD
"It’s definitely not Lavanter, that’s stupid" type it into google and listen to how it’s bsaid😭😭😂😂😂😂
AHAHAH YOU ARE SUCH A MOOD WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT FELIX LOL. I feel you man

Kinda letting go of parts of themselves that always listened to the negative comments and focassing on the parts that always pushed them forward.
But its still early more theories are still formulating
*OMG THE VOCALS!*
This album means so much to Stay, and honestly this is something we all really needed right now. We are so damn proud of our boys. Thank you for reacting to this, Ben, it's very much appreciated 💙🌴

As a Felix biased I fangirl a lot even before he opens his mouth to sing .
8:16 the way u call 'seungmin' is too precious
I love stray kids, they just always know how to get you, they never make a bad song, ever. Voices is still my favourite Stray Kids song, if you haven't heard it yet Ben, you really really need to check it out
Levanter is the name of a specific wind in the Mediterranean and the Korean name 바람 means wind idk what that’s has to do with the music video though xD
Fairy Heart um in a book I read it references levanter as some kind of spiritual guide
@@HarleenHarlow oohhhh the mind.. skz has been referencing to a lot of books.. whoever thought of that is GENIUS i tell you
this whole mv is the "yOu bEtTeR sToP" meme
clé: levanter is gonna be the last in clé series
Yessss been waiting for your reaction!
Edit:// I'm dying at "boy you better shut up!" Mood x10. Welcome to being a fellow Felix stan!!
This album means so much to them. The fact that they write, choreograph and produce their own songs just adds more meaning to it. Loved your reaction!
This is why Stray Kids is my ult group. They never fail to make good music, ever. I love all of their songs, like legit there isn’t a single one that I don’t like.

When the ad before is the music video. Love that.
This song is exactly what stay needed and thank you for reacting

It's not a crazy idea that thing about an antithesis of Hellevator. Levanter is the final one of an trilogy, so covers a lot of significance behind the video.
