Hey guys! We realize now that Cherry is JiU's dog 😭🤡 EDIT:: Just in case you missed us talking about it in the video we will be doing the Special Videos for these solo songs in another reaction! It should be coming soon!
It's okay...not all InSomnia's know all the things about Deukae.... Still love seeing your reactions to their songs and music.... Looking forward to you reacting to their other EP's and their upcoming comeback.... Btw I love lock inside the door, beautiful by Dami and you by yoohyeon in this album..
Here are the solo songs meanings as told by the members. :) *Cherry:* a love letter to her dog Cherry, she said she can’t imagine a life without her dog *No Dot:* for the style she said it was something she wanted to try, which she did beautifully - about duality of longing and obsession for a lover *Entrancing:* about beautiful dreams in a traditional ballad *Winter:* a love song from meeting to ending - inspired by the movie Love Letter (ironic she’s my bias 😅) *For:* a love song for the fans *Beauty Full:* about self confidence and being care free *Playground:* her own personal story - missing being young and painting the gray world
Awh..too bad Siyeon isn't included for their activities in their recent comeback because of health problems... We hope she recovers sooner... DC isn't complete without one of them present
When DC performed Always at their first mini concert for Apocalypse: Save Us in S. Korea, some of the members were brought to tears since it was the first time they saw their fans with the official light stick at a concert. Very touching especially how long they’ve been together, and also the pandemic caused DC not to host any in-person concert.
Here's some context behind each solo made by the Dreamies, so you can get a better feel of the song. JiUs solo "Cherry (Real Miracle)" she said "It's that one wish and hope that all pet owners have and will also relate to we hope that our pets stay by our side forever happily and healthy! I wanted my solo track to be my personal story and it's about how I want to be with my loveable dog, Cherry, forever. I just can't imagine a life without my dog. As I was working on the song, I continuously thought about Cherry. " She even said during her song writing she thought about it as if she was writing a love letter to her dog Cherry. 🍒🐰 SuAs solo "No Dot" she said "The message I wanted to deliver through my solo track is the feelings you have when your love for someone becomes so big. The song stands on a fine line between desperation and obsession, so I feel like it'll be a good song for people to relate to and get immersed in. " 👑🐥 Siyeons solo "Entrancing" she said "It's a song that is about how you don't want to wake up from an entrancing dream, so I hope that fans can listen to the song as if they're watching a movie! And I hope that it can be a comfort for those who have experienced a farewell and I also hope it can have a positive impact on them. It's a ballad that's easy to listen to, so please listen to the song whenever and wherever. I've worked hard on all aspects, so I'm very confident of it. I will always want to be a singer who brings strength to everyone.”🌙🐺 Handongs solo "Winter" is based on a winter mood. She was inspired by the movie Love Letter. And she wrote the song like a reminiscent letter that expresses the regrets and looks back on the emotions of not being able to turn back time. She said through this experience, she was able to learn more Korean and it was extremely meaningful to her. She also wanted to send a message of doing what you want to do and to not regret any of the decisions made. And that it's not always about the results, but also about the beauty of the process. ❄️🐱 Yoohyeons solo "For", she said "During the time when we were not promoting and resting, there were a lot of emotions and feelings I experienced in that period. I was worried that many of our fans would become exhausted waiting for us. And I think my song incorporates all the emotions that I had felt at the time. I hope that the fans can feel and listen to the song's message, as they wait for the day when we can meet one another again." 🍀🐶 Damis solo "Beauty Full" she said "I wanted to work on a song that could express freedom. I wanted to fully express the joy and let go of all the worries and concerns by having fun and gaining strength. So, the song 'Beauty Full' is all about filling myself with more confidence and being more carefree to enjoy the moment without worries. " 💫🐼 Gahyeons solo "Playground" she said "When I first started working on the song, I wanted to write about my personal story." 🍭🦊 Thank you so much for reacting to more Dreamcatcher! 🫶🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I want you two to listen to 'Always' again but now with the imagery of Jiu seeing insomnias for the first time in the audience after COVID. As soon as the lights were on and she saw the fans she was holding herself not to cry (spoiler: she couldn't and they all got emotional). 'Always' HURTS but then I remember that soon after that they got the first win..... And then it hurts again for other reasons lmao
I hope you see the live performance of Always (Mini concert), they are literally crying because of InSomnias. It was their first performance with an audience during the pandemic period. 🤧♥️
A few follow up recommendations: As you are probably already aware, there are special clips/MVs for each of their solo tracks. There was a documentary series that was released during their promotions about their solos; it was a limited time paid release on Wonderwall, but there are videos of it online somewhere. There is also a ~30 minute compilation of fancams for the No Dot challenge featuring all of their North America stops on the tour for the album. Bring water. EDIT: I forgot to add one (that i saw in another comment). Always was the first song for this album's Showcase; this was also the first time DC has been on stage in front of InSomnia after lockdown was lifted. Bring tissues.
I highly recommend the following special videos in addition to the solo special clips - Maison Play Color performance (remember Wind Blows? same channel) - ua-cam.com/video/Qi0HBXFPqqM/v-deo.html Always (mini concert live audience, 1st live performance after the pandemic 😭) - ua-cam.com/video/tCGVte8QT98/v-deo.html
A 90 minutes video for a 45 minutes album? You really talk a lot! Perfect, I love it! ♥ Such a fantastic album! LiaD, Starlight and all the solos are some of my favourite b-sides. Always is my fave ballad by DC! And Entrancing and Winter are two of my favourite songs (in general, not just DC or kpop). ♥ Looking forward to your solos special clips reaction!
Yeah there's two of us and we always have something to discuss 😂. With 14 songs.. we already knew going in this one was going to be a long one for us haha
Handong said that her song was inspired by the Japanese movie Love Letter, which was a huge hit among South Korean teens back around 2015. Twice also referenced the movie in their song What Is Love. She also said that her name Handong (寒冬) when translated into English means midwinter. She was born in midwinter so that's probably why her parents gave her that name. She wanted to call the song Midwinter, but Ollounder changed it to Winter. If you do watch Love Letter you'll need at least two boxes of tissues.
i will never forget that moment they stepped on stage at the showcase/mini concert the first time back with an audience (due to covid), opening with 'always' and jiu immediately started crying the moment the lights turned on. 😭 this always comes to my mind when i hear the song. 🥹
As I've been watching your reactions and seeing you go through their discography in order, I'm coming to the realization that I'm absolutely obsessed with dreamcatcher's ballads 😭 Also the ending of Handong's solo left me just not able to do anything when I realized she was singing in Chinese and the way everything cut out except her voice
The mvs for the solos are so good, deff watch them. Maison wasn't my fav TT but that win was so long awaited it will have a place in all somnia's hearts.
Awesome reaction as always. I feel like listening to DC albums is always an experience, by the end I am always overwhelmed or exhausted by their voices and meaning behind the songs. I highly recommend the following special videos in addition to the solo special clips - Maison Play Color performance (remember Wind Blows?) - ua-cam.com/video/Qi0HBXFPqqM/v-deo.htmlsi=5LJ6hCl_8pF_l8K9 Always Mini Concert live performance 😭 (It's also kind of a fan song) - ua-cam.com/video/tCGVte8QT98/v-deo.htmlsi=OGNoVpbCykButpUa
Also that concert was the first where they had somnies attend in person again. So it was really special for them as well. But the fans had to wear masks bc of covid restrictions and were not aloud to shout or cheer. They were just allowed to use their lightsticks.
I was looking forward to this album reaction, I know you'll loved every solo song in there. It was their own colours, as you mentioned it. It also shows how the company trusted them when it comes to their own skills and talents that they let them have their SOLO tracks on a full album. Love your reactions ❤ P.S. also your shirts 😂
1. Sua DOES dance in her solo and you should def bring water for her special video. You guys should also watch a compilation of the infamous "No Dot Challenge" they did on tour that Miss Lee Yubin had the gall to instigate (but bring a LOT of water for that one). 2. I'M ALSO SO EXCITED FOR THE TOUR, THEY'LL BE IN L.A. TWO DAYS BEFORE MY BIRTHDAYYYY. 3. I really really really love your shirts lolll 4. 5 DAYS TO COMEBACK, WOOOOO (sending lots of love to our beloved Wolfie Siyeon rn)
if you guys are curious or interested on how they created their solos there’s a wonderwall documentary! totally suggest if you’re interested in how each member partook in their solo songs
All the girls for the most part composed their own music. There are video documentaries of each member, a mini interview where they talk about their inspirations, play their compositions and a little studio session. This was Gahyeon, Sua, Handong and Yoohyeon's first attempt at composition. For Sua and Gahyeon this was their first time writing. Siyeon and Dami practically had finished pieces prepared before Leez even got to look at them and Siyeon's original composition was insanely good to the point Leez asked for her blessing to use it in his future works. They decided to alter it a bit and turned it into a waltzy 3 count to better match the vibe cause the original was closer to traditional battle music. I am a sucker for Winter so I highly recommend: - ONER's mv for struck ft Handong -her first solo called first light of dawn -her third solo called that day -her dance cover of toxic -her dance cover of good old days
Spoiler for the special clips (if you haven't checked, idk if you already recorded or not😅), on those pics that incorporated in the lyric video, yes the look also background if available are from the special clip EXCEPT Handong. The filmings were way after the album released, also I forgot the order of the special clip releases but it was randomly posted in the order that's not in age order (the order in the album). Handong was no longer in red hair, also from the special clip to whole things up until now I can say Handong's beauty type is more to fancy elegant side. She can do sexy badass or whatever but her core is fancy elegant, she shines more with it. The 1st teaser pic for OOTD was her fancy elegant but mixed with badass vibe.
Ah okay based on the playlist it was in order of JiU-Gahyeon-Dami-Siyeon-SuA-Handong-Yoohyeon No age order, not even in the order of the pace of the song. Not even in standing order.
All members participated in the production of the solo song Every song has a stage I also performed in previous tour concerts I like such an excellent singer I'm very proud of this🥹🥹
Always is my all time fav ballad because my first time hearing this is when i saw their showcase and they tear up seeing Insomnia with lightstick on after so many years of covid.
i think it was sua that said Locked inside a door is like a sequel to Jazz bar, at least in terms of the sound, and those 2 are some of my favorite bsides. they kind of served as a gateway into dreamcatcher for me before i got into their harder rock songs. (edit: add yoohyeon's For to my gateway songs)
Always *always* makes me teary.... I watched them perform it live awhile ago and even with the language barrier, the message and feelings really come across so well in this song. Probably one of my favorite ballads. :')
I love watching your reaction videos to Dreamcatcher! DC never disappoints on their albums. Also I love both your t-shirts ❤❤. I gotta get them for my sister and I to wear ❤
can't watch yet cuz I'm listening to background noise videos while I'm at work but I saw this pop up and just wanted to tell you I'm so excited for this movie (lol)! really gave me sumn to look forward to on this slowish holiday-but-not-a-holiday friday
Ughh Starlight is literally my Go-To song for everything! When I’m sad, when I’m happy, it’s in my running playlist and my lifting playlist as well. I can never get tired of it! 💕✨
"Starlight" is my song, probably my all time favorite Deukae song from all their albums. Also "Always " and all their ballads Always make me cry, they're just too good and meaningful
Also.. cracking up at “she’s a little quiet for me” (said no one about Sua ever 🤣🤣). No Dot is my bad b!tch anthem and forever my favourite solo. Sua really showed everyone what an ace she is 😭🔥 Edited to say: please add the live No Dot challenge 18 min compilation to your watch list and prepare to die. Winter is my other favourite and I always cry when Handong switches to Mandarin. It’s so beautiful.
A fun thing to you know, Yoohyeon does backing vocals to Beauty full! They said this on a live i guess? She does the pre chorus part and brigde part! I love their friendship🩷🩷 if you listen focused you'll hear her voice with dami🩷🥺
i think you should watch the no dot challenges compilation during their US TOUR back in 2022 , but fair warning... its gonna be too much for our hearts 😂😂😂😂
"For", as Yoohyeon has explained, it is an open title for Insomnias to insert their own name, like "For Bri". It is a love song dedicated to the fans from Yoohyeon. During the chorus of "Beauty Full", if you listen carefully, you could hear Yoohyeon has lent her voice as one of the backing vocals.
"Please tell me she dances to this". **Insomnia explodes** There were several versions as the Maison tour went on so this is a link to the full, definitive No Dot compilation everyone is warning you about ua-cam.com/video/mzTNYCfZoaw/v-deo.htmlsi=-NbFqTfPDGjhaLa7 It was unplanned!! For a mid-concert rest they had each member perform a snippet of their solo song. Yoohyeon and JiU vibed into SuA's performance, Insomnia loved it, so the next concert SuA picked other members to try it and the infamous No Dot Challenge was born. Dami was the first, and she did not shy away from instigating all her other members. Don't forget to catch Siyeon's reaction in the background. Early on in the tour they stopped the challenge to remind everyone there are minors in the audience and to keep everything family friendly. The NEXT thing that happened is Leader JiU dropped a body roll that measured 6.4 on the Richter scale. That video comes with the strongest warnings you've ever gotten for anything. Edit: the sound in the video is sometimes wonky or cuts out a moment, it's not you.
You say you'll react as if it just came out, but at the concert not too long after it came out, all of them did a special stage and its basically a live version of the special clips! I like the idea though of first doing lyrics
I was waiting for the penny to drop that Cherry is Jiu’s Pomeranian 😆 But seriously her writing that song for Cherry is the most Jiu thing to exist ever and I will never ever get over it 😭
And starlight might be my favorite dreamcatcher song. The feeling it gives me is completely different. Especially in the last part, my soul rises towards the sky.
So glad you guys enjoyed this album, i always listen to Always when im feeling sad or alone and it just warms my heart, Handongs final line in winter always almost brings me to tears. Looking forward to your Special clip reactions~
yeah, watching cover together is best, but Dreamcatcher Discography journey is best of the best. a lot of fun, emotion, like their song either to bring messages or song for insomnia. love back to the journey, and next week we explore new journey together! get well soon Siyeon ❤
Watching the Always portion of your reaction right now. You absolutely need to see their performance of Always during their first show in front of a live audience after the pandemic. They sang beautifully, even with the wave of emotions. ua-cam.com/video/tCGVte8QT98/v-deo.htmlsi=NegzVaE5xhsoiAbh
Siyeon's Entrancing was one of the best song i have ever heard...i mean literally ! am from India and literally Bollywood has the best melodies.. But this song from Siyeon beats everything...
Starlight hits so hard musically and lyrically because it was what the members wanted to say to their younger self (especially while they were trainees). So it has those uplifting/comforting emotions that is relatable to anyone.
SuA is truly an ACE, there is nothing she can't do. All rounder. Golden idol. Whatever you say. This song is a masterpiece that includes everything. If a popular idol had released this song, I'm sure they would have loved it and we would have heard this song everywhere. Because, along with 'talent', it contains everything that people will consume with pleasure.
The story goes SuA was having a rough recording session and dropped the jjinjja si bal, and it fit so well with the song they left it in. Then on tour they had 2000 seat concerts screaming Korean cuss words at them every show. Their faces...
No Dot describe Sua perfectly. My fav solo song. I get Tom & Jerry (aka Sua X Yoohyeon) vibes from the first verse. "I don't care if you tell me I’m crazy You'd better run away Now I’m just playing with you I'll swallow and lock you up I'm the boss and you just follow my lead"
at first when they revealed that there will be solo songs in the album, i didnt expect much actually.. i thought it will be just on bsides level yk but DAMN im so wrong! their solo could be other grp's title track frfr... especially no dot! sua is indeed an iconic queen for singing that song on her own 🙇🏻♂️
One thing about Dreamcatcher's ballads is that while they may have multiple meanings, one of those meanings is always their feelings for InSomnia. This is the heart of Kpop and there's nothing like it in the West.
If you think Abracadabra was hard to watch, try watching the compilation video of all the "No Dot" challenges from every show of the international tour that followed the release of the album!!! Spoiler alert, it featured different members every night🤩🤩🤩
dreamcatcher \:D/ starlight, you can interpret it as both being somnies and dc. neither are the brightest(as in big/popular) in the sky but is the brightest from each's perspective.
Hey guys! We realize now that Cherry is JiU's dog 😭🤡
EDIT:: Just in case you missed us talking about it in the video we will be doing the Special Videos for these solo songs in another reaction! It should be coming soon!
It's okay...not all InSomnia's know all the things about Deukae.... Still love seeing your reactions to their songs and music.... Looking forward to you reacting to their other EP's and their upcoming comeback....
Btw I love lock inside the door, beautiful by Dami and you by yoohyeon in this album..
My bad it's For by yoohyeon... 😂😂😂
@@rodrigoiiicotimo4884as soon as I read “it's ok”, I pictured your reaction like this “😃🔪” lmao.
We like cherry 🍒
The video will melt you, guaranteed!
Here are the solo songs meanings as told by the members. :)
*Cherry:* a love letter to her dog Cherry, she said she can’t imagine a life without her dog
*No Dot:* for the style she said it was something she wanted to try, which she did beautifully - about duality of longing and obsession for a lover
*Entrancing:* about beautiful dreams in a traditional ballad
*Winter:* a love song from meeting to ending - inspired by the movie Love Letter (ironic she’s my bias 😅)
*For:* a love song for the fans
*Beauty Full:* about self confidence and being care free
*Playground:* her own personal story - missing being young and painting the gray world
Thank you!
Awh..too bad Siyeon isn't included for their activities in their recent comeback because of health problems... We hope she recovers sooner... DC isn't complete without one of them present
We saw that notice! We hope that she's able to rest well and return when she's ready ❤though we'll miss her while she's gone.
Whaaattt nooooo 😢😢😢 Get well soon Siyeon ah 🤍
Starlight is 100% my favorite off the album, Starlight and Silver Light by ateez are siblings and no one can convince me otherwise❗
I'd go as far to say that Starlight is one of their best songs in general
Starlight, my fave Dreamcatcher song, bar none... until Justice came along.
I also teared up the first time I heard Dongie switch to Chinese, and I didn't know the lyrics at the time.
The gasp I gasped when I first heard the switch.
When DC performed Always at their first mini concert for Apocalypse: Save Us in S. Korea, some of the members were brought to tears since it was the first time they saw their fans with the official light stick at a concert. Very touching especially how long they’ve been together, and also the pandemic caused DC not to host any in-person concert.
Here's some context behind each solo made by the Dreamies, so you can get a better feel of the song.
JiUs solo "Cherry (Real Miracle)" she said "It's that one wish and hope that all pet owners have and will also relate to we hope that our pets stay by our side forever happily and healthy! I wanted my solo track to be my personal story and it's about how I want to be with my loveable dog, Cherry, forever. I just can't imagine a life without my dog. As I was working on the song, I continuously thought about Cherry. " She even said during her song writing she thought about it as if she was writing a love letter to her dog Cherry. 🍒🐰
SuAs solo "No Dot" she said "The message I wanted to deliver through my solo track is the feelings you have when your love for someone becomes so big. The song stands on a fine line between desperation and obsession, so I feel like it'll be a good song for people to relate to and get immersed in. " 👑🐥
Siyeons solo "Entrancing" she said "It's a song that is about how you don't want to wake up from an entrancing dream, so I hope that fans can listen to the song as if they're watching a movie! And I hope that it can be a comfort for those who have experienced a farewell and I also hope it can have a positive impact on them. It's a ballad that's easy to listen to, so please listen to the song whenever and wherever. I've worked hard on all aspects, so I'm very confident of it. I will always want to be a singer who brings strength to everyone.”🌙🐺
Handongs solo "Winter" is based on a winter mood. She was inspired by the movie Love Letter. And she wrote the song like a reminiscent letter that expresses the regrets and looks back on the emotions of not being able to turn back time. She said through this experience, she was able to learn more Korean and it was extremely meaningful to her. She also wanted to send a message of doing what you want to do and to not regret any of the decisions made. And that it's not always about the results, but also about the beauty of the process. ❄️🐱
Yoohyeons solo "For", she said "During the time when we were not promoting and resting, there were a lot of emotions and feelings I experienced in that period. I was worried that many of our fans would become exhausted waiting for us. And I think my song incorporates all the emotions that I had felt at the time. I hope that the fans can feel and listen to the song's message, as they wait for the day when we can meet one another again." 🍀🐶
Damis solo "Beauty Full" she said "I wanted to work on a song that could express freedom. I wanted to fully express the joy and let go of all the worries and concerns by having fun and gaining strength. So, the song 'Beauty Full' is all about filling myself with more confidence and being more carefree to enjoy the moment without worries. " 💫🐼
Gahyeons solo "Playground" she said "When I first started working on the song, I wanted to write about my personal story." 🍭🦊
Thank you so much for reacting to more Dreamcatcher! 🫶🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 🫂❤️❤️
Hey guys, is it the right time to introduce the legendary “Dreamcatcher all no dot stages” vid to them yet? xDDD
They might perish, but I think it is time. I mean they did Abracadabra and NDA in the same vid; that took bravery lol 😂
If they want to go to the November concerts..... They need to watch.
They are not newbies anymore, i think they are ready for some hardcore content xD i believe in those two ❤
By the way, the one who cursed is SuA.
I want you two to listen to 'Always' again but now with the imagery of Jiu seeing insomnias for the first time in the audience after COVID. As soon as the lights were on and she saw the fans she was holding herself not to cry (spoiler: she couldn't and they all got emotional). 'Always' HURTS but then I remember that soon after that they got the first win..... And then it hurts again for other reasons lmao
Oh man 😭😭😭😭
I hope you see the live performance of Always (Mini concert), they are literally crying because of InSomnias. It was their first performance with an audience during the pandemic period. 🤧♥️
A few follow up recommendations:
As you are probably already aware, there are special clips/MVs for each of their solo tracks.
There was a documentary series that was released during their promotions about their solos; it was a limited time paid release on Wonderwall, but there are videos of it online somewhere.
There is also a ~30 minute compilation of fancams for the No Dot challenge featuring all of their North America stops on the tour for the album. Bring water.
EDIT: I forgot to add one (that i saw in another comment). Always was the first song for this album's Showcase; this was also the first time DC has been on stage in front of InSomnia after lockdown was lifted. Bring tissues.
Yes please😂❤
The video is 18 minutes not 30, 30 is the number of stages
New chapter: i feel jiu really connects with this person she is singing about in her solo
Jiu: yeah cherry is awesome... she is my dog btw
🤡🤡
Starlight never fails to give me chills, I love this song and this whole album
This channel is also meaningful to Dreamcatcher Insomnia. It's really special because the first reaction from the girl group here is Dreamcatcher.❤
i hope siyeon will recover soon
I highly recommend the following special videos in addition to the solo special clips -
Maison Play Color performance (remember Wind Blows? same channel) - ua-cam.com/video/Qi0HBXFPqqM/v-deo.html
Always (mini concert live audience, 1st live performance after the pandemic 😭) - ua-cam.com/video/tCGVte8QT98/v-deo.html
A 90 minutes video for a 45 minutes album? You really talk a lot! Perfect, I love it! ♥
Such a fantastic album! LiaD, Starlight and all the solos are some of my favourite b-sides. Always is my fave ballad by DC! And Entrancing and Winter are two of my favourite songs (in general, not just DC or kpop). ♥
Looking forward to your solos special clips reaction!
Yeah there's two of us and we always have something to discuss 😂. With 14 songs.. we already knew going in this one was going to be a long one for us haha

I always enjoy your reactions to Dreamcatcher. I'm looking forward to watch your reaction to their new album, and to their solo songs special videos 😊
The mvs for the solos are so good, deff watch them. Maison wasn't my fav TT but that win was so long awaited it will have a place in all somnia's hearts.
dreamcatcher is such a complete group
Excited to watch the sibling that throw hands and the sibling that cries react to this amazing album 😆😂
🤣🤣🤣
Awesome reaction as always. I feel like listening to DC albums is always an experience, by the end I am always overwhelmed or exhausted by their voices and meaning behind the songs.
I highly recommend the following special videos in addition to the solo special clips -
Maison Play Color performance (remember Wind Blows?) - ua-cam.com/video/Qi0HBXFPqqM/v-deo.htmlsi=5LJ6hCl_8pF_l8K9
Always Mini Concert live performance 😭 (It's also kind of a fan song) - ua-cam.com/video/tCGVte8QT98/v-deo.htmlsi=OGNoVpbCykButpUa
Also that concert was the first where they had somnies attend in person again. So it was really special for them as well. But the fans had to wear masks bc of covid restrictions and were not aloud to shout or cheer. They were just allowed to use their lightsticks.
I was looking forward to this album reaction, I know you'll loved every solo song in there. It was their own colours, as you mentioned it. It also shows how the company trusted them when it comes to their own skills and talents that they let them have their SOLO tracks on a full album.
Love your reactions ❤
P.S. also your shirts 😂
1. Sua DOES dance in her solo and you should def bring water for her special video. You guys should also watch a compilation of the infamous "No Dot Challenge" they did on tour that Miss Lee Yubin had the gall to instigate (but bring a LOT of water for that one).
2. I'M ALSO SO EXCITED FOR THE TOUR, THEY'LL BE IN L.A. TWO DAYS BEFORE MY BIRTHDAYYYY.
3. I really really really love your shirts lolll
4. 5 DAYS TO COMEBACK, WOOOOO (sending lots of love to our beloved Wolfie Siyeon rn)
let's make them win for this comeback 🔥❤️
My all time favorite album lets goo, their solos are so so good thank you ladies, hope yall will get tickets so excited for both of you!
if you guys are curious or interested on how they created their solos there’s a wonderwall documentary! totally suggest if you’re interested in how each member partook in their solo songs

I am a sucker for Winter so I highly recommend:
- ONER's mv for struck ft Handong
-her first solo called first light of dawn
-her third solo called that day
-her dance cover of toxic
-her dance cover of good old days
that dog cherry is so lucky
난 파이가 되고 싶어
Get well soon Siyeon... Always dreamcatcher always insomnia ❤️

She can do sexy badass or whatever but her core is fancy elegant, she shines more with it. The 1st teaser pic for OOTD was her fancy elegant but mixed with badass vibe.
Ah okay based on the playlist it was in order of JiU-Gahyeon-Dami-Siyeon-SuA-Handong-Yoohyeon
No age order, not even in the order of the pace of the song. Not even in standing order.
Each member wrote their own solos
I always love your reactions! 🥹 I can’t wait for the both of you to watch their solo mvs☺️ Thank you so much for loving Dreamcatcher🫶🏼
Hearing Jiu’s solo brings the happiness into our heart. So much light and rainbow in a single song ❤❤
locked inside a door gives me such show tune vibes i love it. starlight is my fav b-side since new days and was only topped by propose
It is time. Lets gooooooooooo
Starlight is one of my fav bsides from them. It hits extra hard if you think about it from the perspective of the girls when they were trainees.
Dreamcatcher 'Apocalypse alum - is Dangerous , dami 🔥🔥
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
All members participated in the production of the solo song Every song has a stage I also performed in previous tour concerts
I like such an excellent singer I'm very proud of this🥹🥹
Always is my all time fav ballad because my first time hearing this is when i saw their showcase and they tear up seeing Insomnia with lightstick on after so many years of covid.
i think it was sua that said Locked inside a door is like a sequel to Jazz bar, at least in terms of the sound, and those 2 are some of my favorite bsides. they kind of served as a gateway into dreamcatcher for me before i got into their harder rock songs. (edit: add yoohyeon's For to my gateway songs)
Always *always* makes me teary.... I watched them perform it live awhile ago and even with the language barrier, the message and feelings really come across so well in this song. Probably one of my favorite ballads. :')
5:30 Whenever I hear the intro to this song I just wanna scream, “FLASH AHAAAAAAHHHHH”
Savior of the Universe! (theme on point still)
I love watching your reaction videos to Dreamcatcher! DC never disappoints on their albums. Also I love both your t-shirts ❤❤. I gotta get them for my sister and I to wear ❤
can't watch yet cuz I'm listening to background noise videos while I'm at work but I saw this pop up and just wanted to tell you I'm so excited for this movie (lol)! really gave me sumn to look forward to on this slowish holiday-but-not-a-holiday friday
Love the reaction! ❤
This album is just something else... SO freaking good, all the way through!
Also, The skit transitions flawlessly into Cherry! 😍
I was looking foward to this for so long
Ughh Starlight is literally my Go-To song for everything! When I’m sad, when I’m happy, it’s in my running playlist and my lifting playlist as well. I can never get tired of it! 💕✨
go straight to the future on
10th of july ,
they will return ,
give us everything mv and album
"Starlight" is my song, probably my all time favorite Deukae song from all their albums. Also "Always " and all their ballads Always make me cry, they're just too good and meaningful
They are the Legendary Dreamcatcher ,
be ready for the : Power , Magic and their Flame .
Also.. cracking up at “she’s a little quiet for me” (said no one about Sua ever 🤣🤣). No Dot is my bad b!tch anthem and forever my favourite solo. Sua really showed everyone what an ace she is 😭🔥
Edited to say: please add the live No Dot challenge 18 min compilation to your watch list and prepare to die.
Winter is my other favourite and I always cry when Handong switches to Mandarin. It’s so beautiful.
The extra verse from Starlight was added to Together's "say that you found me" parts lol
A fun thing to you know, Yoohyeon does backing vocals to Beauty full! They said this on a live i guess? She does the pre chorus part and brigde part! I love their friendship🩷🩷 if you listen focused you'll hear her voice with dami🩷🥺
i think you should watch the no dot challenges compilation during their US TOUR back in 2022 , but fair warning... its gonna be too much for our hearts 😂😂😂😂
I loved reliving this album together with you, and can't wait for the special clips
just finish,thank you for taking the time for a full album in 1 seating.. see you on the comeback !!!
"For", as Yoohyeon has explained, it is an open title for Insomnias to insert their own name, like "For Bri". It is a love song dedicated to the fans from Yoohyeon.
During the chorus of "Beauty Full", if you listen carefully, you could hear Yoohyeon has lent her voice as one of the backing vocals.
"Please tell me she dances to this". **Insomnia explodes** There were several versions as the Maison tour went on so this is a link to the full, definitive No Dot compilation everyone is warning you about ua-cam.com/video/mzTNYCfZoaw/v-deo.htmlsi=-NbFqTfPDGjhaLa7
It was unplanned!! For a mid-concert rest they had each member perform a snippet of their solo song. Yoohyeon and JiU vibed into SuA's performance, Insomnia loved it, so the next concert SuA picked other members to try it and the infamous No Dot Challenge was born. Dami was the first, and she did not shy away from instigating all her other members. Don't forget to catch Siyeon's reaction in the background.
Early on in the tour they stopped the challenge to remind everyone there are minors in the audience and to keep everything family friendly. The NEXT thing that happened is Leader JiU dropped a body roll that measured 6.4 on the Richter scale. That video comes with the strongest warnings you've ever gotten for anything.
Edit: the sound in the video is sometimes wonky or cuts out a moment, it's not you.
Thank you for the reaction!!! Been super busy this month (moving) and your reactions are such a nice restful fun moment for me
You say you'll react as if it just came out, but at the concert not too long after it came out, all of them did a special stage and its basically a live version of the special clips!
I like the idea though of first doing lyrics
I love your love and appreciation for Dreamcatcher, and can’t wait for your reactions to the special clips! 💕
I think Save Us is my second favorite intro after Raid of Dream. "Oh? It's an apocalypse? But it's a ~funky~ apocalypse!"
I was waiting for the penny to drop that Cherry is Jiu’s Pomeranian 😆
But seriously her writing that song for Cherry is the most Jiu thing to exist ever and I will never ever get over it 😭
And starlight might be my favorite dreamcatcher song. The feeling it gives me is completely different. Especially in the last part, my soul rises towards the sky.
Dami Lavigne blessed us on this album.
so glad you guys got to listen to this album! i’ve been a dc fan for a couple years now and ive got to say Starlight is my favorite song from them!!
So glad you guys enjoyed this album, i always listen to Always when im feeling sad or alone and it just warms my heart, Handongs final line in winter always almost brings me to tears.
Looking forward to your Special clip reactions~
NO DOT my fav on the album. Can't wait til you guys watch the No Dot challenge 🤭
oh, fun fact! yoohyeon did background vocals for dami's solo and yoohyeon recorded hers in dami's studio. ugh, my soulmates
I can’t wait for you guys to watch the solo music videos
😍 Love your reaction to this album. One of my favourite album from their discography 😆
yeah, watching cover together is best,
but Dreamcatcher Discography journey is best of the best.
a lot of fun, emotion, like their song either to bring messages or song for insomnia.
love back to the journey,
and next week we explore new journey together!
get well soon Siyeon ❤
One of my Favourite Albums of all time!! Flawless!!
Now you have to see tje individial music videos for each of their solos! They encapsulate each member so well
YES! You’ve reached THE album. My top album of 2022!
Were really being fed by Tori and Bri today!
Thank you for more Dreamcatcher content as always ❤
Thank you for For your Reaction!!!! Siyeon we will be waiting for you and take care of Yourself please!!!! ❤
Can't wait to see the solo MV reactions. Thank you and Siyeon get well soon we will miss you.
"ALWAYS", "ENTRANCING" and "WINTER" 😭😭😭✨🔥
Watching the Always portion of your reaction right now. You absolutely need to see their performance of Always during their first show in front of a live audience after the pandemic. They sang beautifully, even with the wave of emotions. ua-cam.com/video/tCGVte8QT98/v-deo.htmlsi=NegzVaE5xhsoiAbh
I was going to suggest this as well! This performance is so important to InSomnia, I'd love for y'all to add it to the other special clips. 🙏 Please!
AHHhhh I'm very excited for their new album !!!
Siyeon's Entrancing was one of the best song i have ever heard...i mean literally ! am from India and literally Bollywood has the best melodies.. But this song from Siyeon beats everything...
Starlight hits so hard musically and lyrically because it was what the members wanted to say to their younger self (especially while they were trainees). So it has those uplifting/comforting emotions that is relatable to anyone.
"Please tell me if she dance to this"... Sua's no dot live compilation next, trust me on this. YOU GONNA LOSE IT.
Damn 1.5 hour reaction video! Amazing!
SuA is truly an ACE, there is nothing she can't do. All rounder. Golden idol. Whatever you say. This song is a masterpiece that includes everything. If a popular idol had released this song, I'm sure they would have loved it and we would have heard this song everywhere. Because, along with 'talent', it contains everything that people will consume with pleasure.
The story goes SuA was having a rough recording session and dropped the jjinjja si bal, and it fit so well with the song they left it in.
Then on tour they had 2000 seat concerts screaming Korean cuss words at them every show. Their faces...
No Dot describe Sua perfectly. My fav solo song.
I get Tom & Jerry (aka Sua X Yoohyeon) vibes from the first verse.
"I don't care if you tell me I’m crazy
You'd better run away
Now I’m just playing with you
I'll swallow and lock you up
I'm the boss and you just follow my lead"
FINALYYYYYYY
ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITEEEEEEE
Does Sua dance to No Dot?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well, the other girls did on their 2022 US tour. Who would have thought that SuA would be the tamest of them all. 🤪
at first when they revealed that there will be solo songs in the album, i didnt expect much actually.. i thought it will be just on bsides level yk but DAMN im so wrong! their solo could be other grp's title track frfr... especially no dot! sua is indeed an iconic queen for singing that song on her own 🙇🏻♂️
One thing about Dreamcatcher's ballads is that while they may have multiple meanings, one of those meanings is always their feelings for InSomnia. This is the heart of Kpop and there's nothing like it in the West.
Thank yooooou!!! 🥰
Always it's very beautiful
If you think Abracadabra was hard to watch, try watching the compilation video of all the "No Dot" challenges from every show of the international tour that followed the release of the album!!! Spoiler alert, it featured different members every night🤩🤩🤩
dreamcatcher \:D/
starlight, you can interpret it as both being somnies and dc. neither are the brightest(as in big/popular) in the sky but is the brightest from each's perspective.
