Hey. This song is describing Jolin herself. In the past, she was like ... afraid of people's dislike on her. She used to change herself. if people said she was fat, then she lost weight. Other people said she was ugly, so she was disappointed at that time. And the outfit which is pink and white front showing on the table like octopus is what she wore to attend an occasion, then people said it's too ugly and funny like a octopus. This song is realised to describe that she doesn't care other people's thoughts anymore, she want to be herself. And the color explosion is describing she let go past sad things. So this song is criticizing people's esthetic conception nowadays. Cause what we want for these performers is too much. I hope what I said could help you know more about this song, by the way, Jolin is definitely someone amazing.
The MV is mainly talk about the old her . For the past 20 years . She can’t be herself , she has to change her base on people’ like . Diet . Hungry . Keep practice .... Public judgement made her sick . She had go through that bad time period . Now she is the new her ! The real her .
I think it might be more precise to say it “alternative”or “unique” instead of translating it into “ugly”in English,but maybe she’s trying to give it a new feeling by putting these two words having the opposite words together. I think it’s cool.
Nice, you bring a different review to it, talking about the technical aspects of the music (synth and all that) that we amateurs do not know about. This music video has been super awesome and meaningful for us long time fans who’ve seen the different phases of her life and the things she went through that were portrayed in the vid. The self acceptance nearing the end as she pops the critical versions of her has been truly touching for us. As the music goes, she’s insanely beautiful. Cheers dude!
I love the reaction vlogs that you have been doing! Great views and reaction in this one, too. I enjoyed them so much. Although I am not so familiar with every concept that the music video is trying to reveal, I did enjoy it and I have been rewinding it so many times. Million thanks from Taiwan. 謝謝你!
Jolin's MV and title track this time are so good! I really like it, so I have bought two copies to support "Taiwan's queen of Asia"! from Yuanlin City, Taiwan
Good reactio! I cried when the first time I watched the MV. I followed her like more than 10 years, knowing that she's been through a lot. LOVE MY QUEEN. LOVE JOLIN.
Jolin used to be a perfectionist. Everyone judged her, including herself. She role-played as a judge, and also the prisoner who was “ugly”- not in line with public expectations. What is ugly? What is beauty ? Why is fat ugly ? And why is thin beautiful? Her outfit is also a hot issue. Her red carpet dress of Golden Melody Award in 2008, was being making fun of looking like a Cuttlefish. She used to eat only vegetables and no seasoning, never enjoyed the food in her life, in order to keep in shape and try to please others. Skin whitening was also a wrong cognition of many people. The blue dress was one of her LIVE Concert “Dancing Forever” costume in 2006.She learned many acrobatics to proof herself such as : pommel horse, ribbon dance, fouette,etc. She thought everyone loves to see her challenging herself, but when she won the best female singer of Golden Melody Award in 2007, haters said that “It was a Gymnast won this, not a singer. " Suddenly, she realized that she was always trying to please everyone, but never did anything for herself. It was a long journey for Jolin to find herslf and learn how to love herself. Haters are everywhere, even now! But when she started to being herself, she became more and more happier. Never do anything for others, do it for yourself! Never please anyone, please yourself! She is so brave to review all of her bad histories, she thinks that what happened before makes who she is now! She thanks to them and embrace them, she makes peace with old Jolin, and announces that NEW JOLIN is here! (If my grammar or spelling is wrong, please tell me, thank you guys! Hope you enjoy this video!)
About the ugly beauty this album, All the details in the link,you can transfer to English by yourself www.google.com.tw/amp/s/www.harpersbazaar.com/tw/culture/filmandmusic/gmp25680797/jolin-tsai-ugly-beauty-music-video-easter-egg/ By the way,I just wanna recommend this song which is Jolin Tsai precious album. ua-cam.com/video/fFTFzRlW8F4/v-deo.html This song describes in depth about Jolin’s mental journey after her debut. The process of shooting (the MV of this song) also deeply moved Jolin herself, got her weep uncontrollably, and at times made her unable to reign her own emotions. Because no english subtitles in this mv,and I search for the lyrics in the website to share you. Hope you like it as well as ugly beauty www.chinesetolearn.com/我-wo-i-蔡依林-cai-yilin-jolin-tsai/
Yes, your first impression that the song is about self-judgment and reconciliation is accurate, and Maggie's explanation also fills in how Jolin internalized other's criticism into her critical self.
Cool reaction video. Btw her name is pronounced as Jolin “Tsai” as in sigh and not as “Thai” . You should turn on the english subtitles for the lyrics. this song is pretty much talking about her past and her experiences in the entertainment industry where she was constantly criticized for looks and what people perceive “beauty” as.
Jasmine Hsu you’re not understanding this ... but her profile name is Jolin “Tsai” and I know what you mean by the pronunciation of “Cai” is pronounced as “kai”... but “tsai” is pronounced as “sigh” in English ... the T is silent. Why don’t you try putting in google translate “tsai” and hit the volume to hear for yourself
Each senario is her response to a specific criticism she had received in the past. This song is about her set herself free from other people's opinions and live her own truth.
She's asking who gets to set the standards of beauty, and why do I have to look like what others want me to look like, and not what I want myself to look like, who I am naturally. I take it as commentary on the state that idols have to achieve in terms of beauty to be idols.
Please react to Hua Chenyu Nanping Evening Bells or the Jackdaw Boy mv or Aliens mv. Hua Chenyu is a mainland Chinese singer and probably the top singer under 30 now. He is an amazing musician and composes most of his own songs. You got to know him! He is so versatile!
I would like to recommend a singer whose name is G.E.M. She is a very good singer. All her songs are basically composed by herself. Her songs are very explosive and very pleasant to listen to. She is called the Chinese version of Taylor Swift by American media. She deserves to be known all over the world. I sincerely hope you can go there. Thank you very much for listening to her songs.

The song has a lot of meaning and is very deep. I think I'll be checking out more of her songs! :D
他猜的很精準
這首比我呸要傳達的訊息要更加精準跟強烈
所以就算看不懂字幕 聽不懂歌詞 也沒關係 因為這是全世界都會發生的事情 所以很容易引起共鳴
他有開英文cc
而且他女朋友是台灣人
亞洲的東西比較容易了解
他對音樂的評論非常有品味，也注意到很多細節，畢竟她們努力做音樂也希望有人認真鑑賞。

good reaction❤️❤️Jolin is amazing
Thank you so much!
Please do react to BAND-MAID / REAL EXISTENCE ua-cam.com/video/9TkHpvaO09c/v-deo.html
Thanks! :3
the Chinese 怪美的
怪 also can mean "kind of" "pretty"
so "I'm Ugly Beauty" can change to "I look pretty good".
That’s not even close!!..
Yeah I was confused by the chinese translation.不知道為什麼怪美變成ugly beauty
that's a paronomasia. "I'm ugly beauty" but "I'm pretty good looking also"
I think the best translation would be "I'm pretty in my own way" 怪 is more like somehow tho like Somehow I'm pretty
I think it might be more precise to say it “alternative”or “unique” instead of translating it into “ugly”in English,but maybe she’s trying to give it a new feeling by putting these two words having the opposite words together. I think it’s cool.
Jolin cried yesterday at the MV conference explaining the meaning of the song. Life has never been easy for her as a celebrity
This is the best reaction video to Jolin's new song so far. Thank you for digging out the connotations behind it.
Thank you so much!!!!
大概是 前面他一直稱讚這首歌的節奏，然後覺得她真的很讚，後面問她的朋友這首歌的含義 然後他真的喜歡這首的best
Song of the year!
Omg when the lady explaining the meaning of the MV I was crying , Jolin is a amazing she is beautiful, hate ppl judgement

good explanation from the girl ❤️
那段穿着地才蓝的舞蹈gif老外估计不太容易理解，这可是蔡依林当初一大堆黑图最大的源头，心疼。看到她敢把这些放到自己的MV里来真的觉得她很有勇气！
Thank you for sharing! This song is about her story, and now she conquers it. Embrace all the bad things and be stronger. I am who I am !
I love the reaction vlogs that you have been doing! Great views and reaction in this one, too. I enjoyed them so much.

Jolin is sooooooooo unique. I love her.
I’ve to say, you are the best reaction of this song so far!!!!
Some people didn’t hit the CC button to understand the words she sang.
Oooooh you’re the very first one I saw doing reaction of this:))) thank you!
Jolin Tsai is the only musician, that's got like 3 Million MVs... 20 years ago, She looks about 18 years old... Today, she looks about 19 years old.
Thanks you for liking the new song. I like the song and album too. It was superb
Yes, your first impression that the song is about self-judgment and reconciliation is accurate, and Maggie's explanation also fills in how Jolin internalized other's criticism into her critical self.

Jasmine Hsu you’re not understanding this ... but her profile name is Jolin “Tsai” and I know what you mean by the pronunciation of “Cai” is pronounced as “kai”... but “tsai” is pronounced as “sigh” in English ... the T is silent. Why don’t you try putting in google translate “tsai” and hit the volume to hear for yourself
I love Jolin and she is brave
好想知道這集的字幕
有英文字幕可以看
一顿夸就对了
自己翻吧~總之他很有興趣
jolin😍
The music is like telling u to be yourself instead of someone the world wants
What a great song!
love your reaction !!!
I love your reaction on ugly beauty sooooooo much
Each senario is her response to a specific criticism she had received in the past. This song is about her set herself free from other people's opinions and live her own truth.
my god！this is so awesome👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️
Plz reaction to Jolin Tsai new single 「Oh la la la」
I don't understand what she is singing, but this is epic!!!!!!
u can select english lyrics :)
She's asking who gets to set the standards of beauty, and why do I have to look like what others want me to look like, and not what I want myself to look like, who I am naturally. I take it as commentary on the state that idols have to achieve in terms of beauty to be idols.
Jolin❤❤
Please react to Hua Chenyu Nanping Evening Bells or the Jackdaw Boy mv or Aliens mv. Hua Chenyu is a mainland Chinese singer and probably the top singer under 30 now. He is an amazing musician and composes most of his own songs. You got to know him! He is so versatile!
Thank you for your video❥
U can listen to her latest album. All the other songs are pretty good too!!!
Love jolin
I would like to recommend a singer whose name is G.E.M. She is a very good singer. All her songs are basically composed by herself. Her songs are very explosive and very pleasant to listen to. She is called the Chinese version of Taylor Swift by American media. She deserves to be known all over the world. I sincerely hope you can go there. Thank you very much for listening to her songs.
Taiwan蔡依玲No.1女神

Do you know G.E.M? She is now the hottest female singer in China. I would like to recommend her song "away", which is very nice!
