Fyi One of these nights is actually a tribute song for all the victims of the Sewol ferry tragedy and most of them are students. May all of them rest in peace.
It's just the MV and it was only theorized, no one said it officially. The song though, 7월 7일, or July 7/7th day of the 7th month, is about the Chilseok festival (Qixi in China) which from the Korean folktale, tells the story of starcrossed lovers who were separated and only allowed to meet on the 7th day of the 7th month. According to the tale, if it rains on that night, it's the couple's tears. That's why the lyrics talk about parting and longing, meeting again, "one of these nights" and the MV has water/river and rain, also mentions Milky Way since in the tale a bridge is formed over the Milky Way when they're allowed to meet on July 7.
@@z_hange The lyrics are unquestionably about the folk tale, but the video itself is quite obviously about the Sewol ferry sinking. There are WAY too many similarities to ignore. Not so fun fact... JYP's family was responsible for the tragedy. Yes, THAT JYP.
@@riffgroove I'm not saying it's not, of course there's a reason why so many people have concluded what it's a tribute for, I'm saying no one said it officially and the song itself wasn't about that. And I'm also saying that if a person without knowledge of that incident were to watch it and would listen to the lyrics, the MV wouldn't be out of place because its themes still heavily reflect the content of the lyrics and has elements from the folktale.
You should continue to react to the MV's in order(skipping the ones you have seen of course). They get better with each listen. You should eventually react to the live video of them covering BoA's "Milky Way." It's the first video to have Wendy since her accident back in December. Also, I loved your face when you realized they were trying to murder each other in "Russian Roulette" lmao.
I also use to love One of this Nighs just for how beautiful the song is, but after hearing about the Sewol Tragedy, I can't stop tearing up, every time.
Ahhhh everytime I see one of your reactions is live I get so happy! Red Velvet is my second favorite all time GG's (first being SNSD) so happy you are continuing to react to them. Dumb dumb is probably one of my favorite tracks and choreos of theirs, One of These Night is just a heartbreaking ballad that feeds my soul at the same time it fills my eyes with tears and Russian Roulette is the MV where the murdering and the slightly off kilter concept starts and what a bop to murder someone with lol
You should definitely check out Peekaboo, Rookie, and RBB! Seulgi also released a song with Moonbyul called "Selfish," if you haven't seen it. They've also recently released a cover of Boa's song Milky Way that really shows off their vocals. Thank you for the reaction :)
Glad you like Happiness more than you expected bc it's one of the best debut songs imo, it's criminally underrated. That little wink Yeri does in Dumb Dumb gets me every time idk why. OOTN is sooo good, everything about it flows so nicely. Russian Roulette is a bop and the whole concept is so well executed.. I also really miss orange Seulgi 😔
Dumb Dumb was the first Red Velvet song I ever listened to and Russian Roulette was the first comeback of theirs I actively followed (like watched the teasers, performances and stuff), so they are pretty special to me. I love One of These Nights as well, especially their live performance at Sketchbook. So it was fun to rewatch these MVs with you :) If you pay attention to the Russian Roulette MV they've been trying to kill each other from the start, though it only becomes obvious near the end. The first scene is Wendy setting fire to Seulgi's clothes, Yeri feeds them screws and nails desguised as cereal, they all throw heavy objects at Irene and etc
Fun fact: Russian Roulette was featured on the movie Trolls: World Tour! i just hope the kids dont find the mv cuz its about them killing each other 😅😅
Sorry I'm a little late but that's ok, I am so glad you are finally reacting to more Red Velvet they are amazing and have Gorgeous Vocals and Visuals you should definitely check out The Acoustic Version of Would U the Vocals are amazing and they are so Beautiful, I can't wait for you to react to more Red Velvet, Blackpink, Twice, Mamamoo, and many more Groups, same with some of the Ships as well, I hope you are doing well and staying safe and healthy The Safe Cave!
One Of These Nights is one of my fave on their Velvet side. They are just flexin their vocals there. I always wanna hear that song while I'm relaxing or when I'm about to go to sleep. Dumb Dumb is the first red side song that I liked at first listen cause some of the red side title tracks needs a little growing on me, example are Happiness and Zimzalabim 😅 So I guess we should go with Red Flavor, Umpah Umpah, Really Bad Boy? And definitely some albums I love their entire discography. Their Japanese singles are a bop too.
Yes thank you for reacting to Dumb Dumb - it's such a bop!! You should check out Red Velvet's MV commentary on One of These Nights - it's so hilarious because the members totally roast Wendy in the mv - that's all I will say LOL. Even though they tease her, they are like sisters so you know they love each other to death haha. Plus Wendy is known for sacrificing herself to make the other members laugh :D Oh also, fun fact, when it comes to fellow female kpop stars, Joy is really close friends with Yerin of Gfriend - they went to the same performing arts school along with Hayoung of Apink. All three are very close friends. Irene is really close friends with Jennie of Blankpink. Seulgi is really close friends with Jisoo of Blackpink and Moonbyul of Mamamoo. Yeri is really close friends with pretty much everyone lol and Wendy is doted upon by all of her sunbaenims at SM :)
About who comes up with the weird concepts: You should check out Shinee's SNL sketch 'The dangerous manager'. Red Velvet really reminds me of Shinee in terms of being an extremely talented group that the company uses for experiments - in music, concepts, fashion etc. As a 2nd gen group though they can be more open and joke about the weirdness. The SNL sketch is hilarious :D ua-cam.com/video/KsPoRquX5gs/v-deo.html
You need to watch Seulgi in king mask...Everyone was surprised to describe what was behind the masks ... Obviously the fans already knew about Seulgi's potential ...
a lot of their red songs have creepy undertones , Umpah umpah is about drowning. In Power up a theory was that Irene was making the girls into a smoothie.
LMAO @ 4:14 so true I would like to know too! Super funny - Red Velvet = Great Music and Unpredictable Videos. One of these Nights is a beautiful song but slower songs unfortunately never get enough views or praise as they should. I look at other great artists and you see the same such as Chungha's "Everybody Has" MV compared to "Play" MV.
Ah yes, the box of Doll legs. Unused scraps within the factory. They used that image in the teasers and on the album jacket art. Def makes a statement.
One of These Nights. everything ends is water and darkness. Russian Roulette is really the same plot as Bad Boy but no one notices the killing because it looks and sounds so good. You mentioned Zimzallabim. You owe it to yourself to find Zimzallabim in the high school. You will have to admit they may be a powerful cult after all.
I suggest not missing any MVs including minor ones. But under no circumstances you should skip live singing like Psycho and Remember Forever (ReVe Festival Finale), Would U acoustic live version, Candy, Wish Tree and others.
I can't speak for anyone else but I, personally, don't really talk about One Of These Nights because it fucking wrecks me every god damn time I hear it
When you react to Would U, i recommend this live acoustic version because Irene was only featured on the mv. Joy was not included on the song and live version because she was busy filming her 1st drama. ua-cam.com/video/88VRss2U4Lk/v-deo.html
Everytime after i hear dumb dumb, my brain for the rest of the day goes dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb. Also I don't like those pipi longstocking braids 🙈 Russian roulette, where you are cute while committing murder XD I'm a fan of their red side, i LOVE the cute creepy vibes, while velvet side is not bad, but I'm not a big fan of slow songs and ballads (doesn't matter the group) so it takes me a lot of listening to start like this songs (ex from red velvet didn't liked bad boy at all, now I'm like, well is not a bad song, it took me weeks to get to that result)

One of these nights is so underrated!
Its my fave red velvet song :')
Yes. Mybe they're release not for combck but tribute for shawol ferry trgedy 😭 .. bur thts song still won at korean music award
Ikr. I listen to this song almost everyday.
Only intellectuals know it's value... My favorite song alongside Automatic.

4:40 oh honey you haven't watched orange caramel's catallena where the three members look like a sushi inside a plastic container 👁️👄👁️
I think Catallena has a meaning. As far as I know, the MV shows how female idols are seen as products or smthn like that.
Maybe you should react to 'Red Velvet A Mess' series. Of course starting off with the 1st video of A Mess
Sorry I'm a little late but that's ok, I am so glad you are finally reacting to more Red Velvet they are amazing and have Gorgeous Vocals and Visuals you should definitely check out The Acoustic Version of Would U the Vocals are amazing and they are so Beautiful, I can't wait for you to react to more Red Velvet, Blackpink, Twice, Mamamoo, and many more Groups, same with some of the Ships as well, I hope you are doing well and staying safe and healthy The Safe Cave!

The live stages of Dumb dumb are amazing
one of these nights is a masterpiece！
I really really like song one of these night.. Very happy when i saw your video on my youtube home
Excited to know you'll be reacting to albums in the future
Looking forward to your Peekaboo reaction!!
One of These Nights still wrecks me regularly. It is in my opinion the best-composed song in kpop, with a vocal performance to match.

Dumb Dumb and ice cream cake are muy obsession... Seulgi and Joy blonde... and Wendy and Joy in Dumb Dumb
you should check out sappy, pyscho, and red flavor !! would love to hear what you think :)
You need to watch Seulgi in king mask...Everyone was surprised to describe what was behind the masks ... Obviously the fans already knew about Seulgi's potential ...
One of these nights is very sad history

Umpah Umpah is about remembering to breath normally when around your love interest. If it’s drowning then it’s drowning in love.
russian roulette superior tt
bro yEs i love that song!
their best title track hands down

Please listen to their bsides. They have the best discography!!! ☺️
Laughing at you going from alarmed - melting over Wendy's voice - going back to being alarmed
Rocket Punch did a cover stage of Russian Roulette that was really good if you want to check it out
Dumb dumb is a historic mv in kpop history. It was revolutionary at the time, and it's mentioned to this day as one of the best mvs in history
