It took 48 hours but the video is FINALLY unblocked =D
These guys are freakin' awesome, I loved the song and how fun and groovy it was but it had such a nice meaning behind it, can't help but root for these guys, and plus, the video itself is DOPE!
We hope you react more on their new ep.. thanks for this rv ❤ #sb19 ⚠️
SB19 I Want You Live on ASAP
Pablo, the leader and writer of their songs is genius. His compositions always has word play, metaphors, symbolism and very poetic when read in our own language.
This is the definition of a reaction video. Not just watching and pandering to get subscribers and likes. Kudos to you. First, this is a musical satire with lots of Filipino culture references. First scene refers to a Filipino adage "no pain, no gain". Next scene with the Gucci reference, means (my opinion) not everything that glitters is gold. The shower scene (again, my opinion) refers to being genuine and not caring about raised eyebrows (doubters and bashers)... the rest, you more or less got it. That's SB19 music. It makes you think. Check out their other music especially their Wish Bus live performances. Thank you for checking them out.
They could also be talking about their experience as artists in the music industry. They started as trainees in a small Korean company based in the Philippines and had struggled for years when a dance practice video blew up. They are very talented but they felt smothered by the company handling them. Now that they are self-managed and self-produced and getting more successful with the release of their new EP PAGTATAG, they still feel like ants on display being observed by aliens. The aliens however are wearing suits and have clean human hands. Do they represent the big labels?
Hi~ here are some few notes here since the song have a lot of Filipino references:
1. Pablo cooking scene
- The ingredients in the pot he's cooking are for the Filipino dish called "nilaga", this is reference to PH proverb, "Pag may tiyaga, may nilaga" which means "hard work has its rewards"
2. Stell shower scene
- In PH since the weather is very hot here our body produces this "sour" smell in the armpit (that's why we always use deo) so people who don't take care of their hygiene here are called "maasim" literally "sour" so then he said in the lyrics that no matter how sweaty and sour he smell after all the hardwork he did all day the haters are more "sour" than him/them.
3. Josh rap part
- He said that he will not swallow a stone because he's not Darna, Darna is a PH Icon Comics hero, she swallows a "stone" before she transform on her Darna form, so what he's saying is he's no superhero
- He said that he's his own mechanic and don't need "Moniko", this is reference to a PH tongue twister: "Minikaniko ni Moniko, ang makina ni Monika" which translate to "Moniko fixed Monika's engine" so he's saying that he doesn't need anyone's help to build himself
4. Justin switch with the dog
- This is reference to Filipino term "dogshow" used when you are clowning/making fun of something/someone. It can either be you're making fun of another person or you're making fun of yourself. It's "dogshow" because on literal dog shows, the dogs are being displayed to the public to make "tricks" who else does "tricks"?---- Clowns.
5. SB19 no eyebrows scene
- If you raised your eyebrows on someone, you're judging them, right? Or being mean to them. On the MV the lyrics says to burn their brows. In PH there is this saying when you are studying hard, "nagsusunog ng kilay" which means burning their brows because their faces are buried on the book. So they're probably saying that instead of raising your eye brows on someone (judge them) why don't u just burn your brows (study) because the haters are basically dumb.
EXTRA: Not a Filipino reference but at the end, the alien scene, they're actually mocking their Alab MV. (watch alab mv again and focus on the last part) This is because during that time they are fully managed by their Korean management SBT which made them do things they don't want to do as the group.
In Alab MV, for example, they are promoted as "PPOP" but the MV literally starts and ended with someone speaking in Korean so PH netizens bashed SB19 about being a KPOP wanna be, no originality, and having no Filipino roots in their music.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR APPRECIATING THEIR MUSIC~
DG is the best Gento reviewer lately.But I find your addendum deep and completing the overlooked those overlooked pieces.Damn good,Kaps.
Thank you for the reference nice
wooooow 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Binasa KO talaga. Wow Nasa isip KO Lang to pero Di KO maexpress Ng ganito sa txt. Galing mo kaps paambon naman na talino hehe
This is deep than i thought. Thanks for this
You're one of the smartest and most objective reactors to an SB19 MV I've watched. Thank you for reacting to SB19.
I agree. I really love how he do hes reaction from not pausing much the video and proceeded with a depth thought of understanding.
You can watch Knox Hill as well. He reacted to Mapa of SB19. He's also one of the smartest reactors in this app.
Agree
I agree with you, proud to be Pinoy
GENTO X MPL X WHAT IT IS ua-cam.com/video/MXEdAl-QIXs/v-deo.html
This might be my favorite Gento reaction. You really analyzed the song and the video and even did a little research on your own. There *are* a lot of nuances in the lyrics/mv that only make sense in a Filipino context, but you pretty much got them all. Thank you so much!
I agree
Awesome reaction,love it
This is the kind of reaction that I love to watch especially with the songs that our boys make. Every mv & songs that they make always have meaning. PABLO, their leader, is the one who wrote all of their songs (the 1st one who rap/the one who rap fast).
co-wrote some, wrote some. pls give respect, attention to the other writers as well
Same here😊
@@Mysweetings Is it wrong to give Pablo the credit that he deserve to highlight him? 🤧
@@Mysweetings In terms of lyrics of SB19 songs, Pablo is the one credited. But in the music production/composing side, Pablo sometimes have co-producers.
Yes, are right in your interpretation of the song. Gento is a summary of SB19 journey. Their journey is very sad for working hard that everything flop, no financial support, people bashed them as Kpop copy cut, and ugly. Their struggles paid off. Watch SB19 interview with The juan, kwento juan sb19. Their interview with Toni. There is English subtitle too.
Of all the reactors you are only the one who really understands the story behind their mv. Thank u ..❤❤❤
It’s refreshing to see some variety from a lot of Kpop reactors now reacting to PPOP or JPOP or TPOP. There’s so much more out of the Asian pop scene that the world deserves to see.
For Real. Kpop is great but lately every song/mv starts to look and sound repetitive. Glad I discovered Ppop. There so much talent and potential there.
Wow you even decipher the choreo of gearing up. Other reactors even fans only seen it as a cool choreo but never realized about the meaning. Cool analysis! Your mind thinks same way like their leader/composer Pablo. Sometimes, we don’t get his humor coz there’s always deep meaning before we get his jokes. But that’s what we a’tin loved about this group. Their songs are deep and inspirational at the same time fire!
I love it .. he understand it all.
New Sub here. I like how you dig in and your analisis is pretty much on track. Pablo, the leader writes SB19'S songs although they all can and do give input. They're lyrics are everything in their songs and describe their struggles. Most every official MV and Lyrics video have English subs. They sing, rap, dance. They go hard with songs like WHAT, Bazinga, MANA, and Crimzone, do Pop like WYAT and Freedom, their ballads like Tilaluha, MaPa, Hanggang Sa Huli, Ilaw and Liham are so deep! They are even better live! They also have solos that are equally as good! Hope to see more since I like your analitical style!

They are making very meaningful and inspiring songs. Check their past and current songs/MV. So legendary
Pablo is such a genius lyricist. Almost all of their songs have metaphors and bars.
Thank you so much for appreciating our PPop Kings, SB19! I love your reaction and in depth review of the song! More SB19 please, they can do so much more! ATIN is here for it! Stay awesome! 💪😍
hello filipino a'tin (sb19 fandom name) here! first of all, thank you for giving them a chance. thank you for appreciating not just the song but also their lyricism and symbolisms in the mv, they love doing that, a peek at their creativity and wit. but what i love the most is how quick you caught up w/ their metaphors at first view and first listen.
like for example, that scene where justin (guy w/ the doggo) switched places w the dog and you interpreted it as us, ourselves being like leashed dogs in life somehow. love how you tried to dissect it, most reactors tend to laugh and think it nonsense or random (when nothing for sb19 is ever random, be it in music or mvs) but that is actually a filipino slang called "dogshow" which is to sarcastically mock or make fun of smth. hence, it could be interpreted as no matter how ppl criticized them, (unfortunately, they were once called kpop wannabes and gays when they first started booming in the philippines) they "dogshowed" it by not letting it affect them, instead make fun out of all the hate they got. another scene you analyzed was stell (shower scene guy) freshly going out of the shower and stumbling upon the rest of the boys while the lines "all raised brows on us will be burned until they learned their lesson" played and that is allegorical to the filipino saying "magsunog ng kilay" (literally "burning the brows") which means to study hard and so with that scene, it could mean for the haters that instead of wasting their time baselessly criticizing them, they should use their time studying and sharpening their brains like them (para matuto namang magnilay/until they learned their lesson)
there truly is a lot to unpack from this song and mv like this comment could go on for longer bc it is filled with filipino cultural references, humor and sarcasm that it all may not make sense for foreign listeners so i appreciate you so much for still analyzing it well and seeing within its layers, not just the surface level. looking forward for more sb19!!
Thank you
WOW O WOW, YOU BREAK THE BARS WELL!! SB19 is known for wordplay in their songs (bars, references - but mostly Filipino references, double meanings, metaphor) either pop or ballad. This is why every time this group releases a new song the A'tin are excited to crack the words and interpretations. I wonder if you can break all their songs like BAZINGA, LA LUNA, WYAT, WHAT?, STRAYDOGS, CRIMINAL
Wow, such an in-depth interpretation of the lyrics despite your limited knowledge of the cultural references! Amazing insights! SB19's Pablo (leader/main rapper) is the main songwriter of their songs - he is fond of word plays, metaphors and poetry and he loves to inject a lot of references to their songs. Their songs are based on their experiences and struggles but they always want the listerners to interpret the message of their songs based on how they speak to them. All the members are actively involved in songwriting, music production (mainly Pablo), choreography (usually Stell - the main vocalist), and conceptualising and creatively directing the MV's (usually Justin, but also Pablo and the other members).
Idk why but this is becoming my fave reaction video. The review??? The way he get the gist of mv? The metaphors?? On his first sb19 reaction??? This sure my fave reaction vid atm
I like everything u said...SB19 songs i a song of life that everyone can relate,rhe leader PABLO he is dubbed as genius lyricist because of his writing skill a good story teller and yes u are right GENTO and most of their song are about them and their experiences FAMILY,FRIENDS,ATIN(fandom name/fans)😊
sb19 é um grupo incrível a musica sempre me surpreende ken/felip voz 😍 que lindo
SB19 always gives us Easter eggs to find in their mvs. At the end apparently the aliens looking on are people alien to their music becoming aware of them,also around their shining gold nugget are others not yet quite visible,other ppop artists waiting to be discovered and as sb19 are the pioneers of ppop music they’re leading the way as well as supporting the talent in the Philippines. These are thoughts someone posted as to the meaning and it make sense to me. Also the question at the end is a reference to one of their earlier songs called Alan. Pagtatag is the last ep of a trilogy each having 6 songs making up 18 songs and their fans are called Atin. We love these guys because they’re totally thrilling and ingenious
hehe 1st ep was PAGSIBOL(growth), the PAGTATAG(strengthening) is the 2nd ep pa lang po the last installment of the trilogy will be the SIMULA at WAKAS (as per interview they had on Zach Sang Show) coming soon maybe when all their Pagtatag tour is done.
@@asielzal4790 😂. Thanks for your correction. That’s what lost in translation is and when you don’t know the language and hanging on their every word
There's one reviewer who's very kren to details about gento mv. He even commented on darna.
Thank you so much for listening and reacting. Please listen and react as well to their "I Want You", "ILAW" and other songs in this Pagtatag EP. You will be surprise.

Oh my God. This is THE REACTION. ❤ The way he dig in and learn the song's meaning. I salute you for this. ❤ Yeah you are right, ALL OF THEIR SONGS are dope❤
I love how you are actually digesting and dissecting the video and song..this group is really making us Filipinos proud, they know music and arts..relevant lyrics, melody, performance and production.thank you for this RV❤
Thank you so much for your very insightful RV to our dear SB19 ❤ I do commend you for being one of the very few who took their time to understand deeply the various deep nuances/metaphors in the song. Most of the time many got stuck with the dance moves, which is not bad, since it did have amazing choreography and melody, but the meaning of the song itself gets sidetracked.
You are right and on point to what you have deciphered what the song meant. If there were some aspects a bit confusing, it is just the aspect of our Filipino culture/humor. Indeed, Gento is all about them. The last part where there is an ant farm, to me it symbolizes they are now slowly being known beyond their homeland, viewed in a cube or thru varrious platforms by other foreigners (aliens). The dialogue of the aliens there is also a soft reference to one of their earliest songs entitled 'Alab' where the ending line was 'What color is your love'..and this time it is now collectively them..gento/ginto=gold.
I do like your RV, and have subscribed! I am not quick to like reactions, but yours truly felt honest and sincere. Hope you continue on to react to their entire EP, you will like all of it! Just try to blur the MV a bit, so you won't get hit by copyright issues.
Welcome to the wonderful world of SB19..snd hopefully you get to know much more of our Filipino talents too!
Very well said kaps 💙
This is an amazing breakdown of Gento which digs dipper into the meaning of the MV and the song. Thank u so much!
I love how you dissected the meanings and metaphors of the song Gento! You do know how to react to a song and give credence to hard work, passion and dedication for a group such as SB19. New subscriber here btw. Thanks for your awesome reaction and I look forward to more especially SB19's music. Have a great week!
You’re one of the few reactors that really get SB19, all their songs have deep meaning and very inspiring. Please do MAPA lyric video or wish bus live after reacting to all their songs in new EP Pagtatag. You will love them I promise! I just discovered them too and bunged watched on everything about them
you are on point, you can't achieve your dreams and goals without HARDSHIPS (a lot of work and time) GENTO ( ganito / like this) like them. GOLD ( dreams and goals) their fame is phenomenon but behind that is their struggles and journeys thru their music. they cater all genres and hands on with their crafts even can sing ballads and harmonies. their song BAZINGA that got no. 1 in BILLBOARD CHART music trends run for 7 consecutive weeks bested butter of bts. it's a song for the haters and bashers..their comeback EP is about them their journeys and struggles thru their music it has 6 tracks. they are on their own management now under 1Z entertainment... THANKS for featuring SB19 in your channel. 🤗💕🌍🎶🎵🎼 react to I WANT YOU kinda like RnB 🎶🎵🌍🤗
..on point with everything..glad to find a very detailed and keen reactor..I love how you pointed out everything about the video and the lyrics..this song is really not just catchy..but meaningful..❤
💯💯💯💯💯
Love how detailed and insightful your RV is! Gento is definitely a social commentary as well as a brief summary of SB19's history.
Basically, they had a very rocky start since P-Pop wasn't a thing in the PH back then and they were deemed as copycats of K-Pop. They were also bashed because of their visuals, particularly Stell (the guy taking a shower).
Finances were also hard for them since they were training 10 hours or more a day without receiving any salary. Some days they had to skip meals, other days they had to walk to and from the studio because they had no money for bus fare. One member had to practice with shoes that had holes in the soles because he couldn't buy new ones.
SB19 literally had to crawl to the top and get where they are now. Their story is an inspiration to all A'Tin (SB19 fans).
Hope you can react to their other songs! Their latest EP "Pagtatag" is full of gems. "I Want You" is currently charting in the PH and its MV is a visual overload. "Crimzone" has a sick beat while "Ilaw" has a great message. Older SB19 songs are also a bop. "What?" had groundbreaking production while "Mana" is a fan favorite.
(Also, fun fact: SB19 were formed and managed by a Korean entertainment company called ShowBT. Their contract with ShowBT recently ended, so they started their own management company called 1Z Entertainment. They're now self-managed so they have full control over their music and artistry!)
deep interpretation 😊 nice
NOW THIS IS A REACTION 😮💨👏🏻 You’re one of the few international reactors that really did research the meaning of the song 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I love it you really put an effort to what you’re reacting and to your content🤌🏻 its very interesting and insightful 👏🏻👏🏻 you got a new subscriber 🤚🏻 MORE POWER TO YOU 🫵🏻🔥
Wow this is the first time I fully understand the song by explaining from a first time reactor. Specially to sb19 song because they have always Easter eggs and story line in every part of their mvs.❤❤❤more sb19 songs pls.
I love how you researched first the meaning of the song before reacting to it. We really appreciate the interest and effort you put into this RV. SB19 is an amazing and talented group. And I love Ken's deep voice. ❤
You're opinions about the song is on point!.. I love RV's like yours, not prejudging the artists, but really goes through the song and tries to understand the meaning or inspiration. Please check their other masterpieces.
omg yes I love SB19!!! thank you for reacting 😊
This song is awesome
This is the most accurate interpretation of the song that I've seen from reactors, although of course it can be interpreted depending on the audience. But yours is the closest based on what Pablo, the leader and writer of SB19 explained when asked about the song. He said they are gold now, but this is the way they became that, like this, or the struggles that they had to go through, and that's how they were molded to become like gold. Thank you for appreciating our PPop kings!
A reactor who has a substance,, I love it💙💙💙💙. Thank you for supporting sb19 our ppop kings. You really have to deep through the mv and lyric of the song,so that you understand what it realy means..you deserve my respect..❤❤💙💙💙💙💙
Mind blown on how you literally explained the full meaning of the song. I am freakin" amazed, you did an awesome job with this reaction video DG. Thumbs up 👏👏👏Clapssss
So happy to see your reaction to SB19. They work all so hard. And I'm so happy they finally get recognized 🙌🏽
My favorite reaction to SB19 now.I will subscribe
Love how you analyze the story of the song....Such an intelligent reactor. Thank you for this reaction Sir.
Because you are one of the reactors who appreciate and break down music accordingly, SB19 will not disappoint. Welcome to SB19
Go deep to understand “Gento” like finding Gold. Pablo the leader wrote all there songs. SB19 are All
Super talented ❤❤❤❤❤
Finally, im watching a reactor that is able to interpret and explain the lyrics and video precisely. Great analization.
Wow a foreigner blogger draws a line so so broad open that he himself amazed the parallelism & symbolic lesson or message this music GENTO delivers .so deep. Kudos. On the otherhand this GENTO I think is the ice breaking of the world music industry that gives birth to a music that delivers a lots of symbolic double meaning that gives moral lesson pros and cons.
You’re Definitely 👍 correct in this song interpretations and that’s what the boys wanted to convey .. gento is a slang word means this is a way to do it (like this) and ginto is Tagalog word for gold .. I appreciate you found Gento as an artistic work of the boys with perfect voices and dance moves ❤
You're a very smart reactor, love your attitude❤❤❤. THANK YOU!!!
Very nice reaction. Very detailed. You noticed almost everything in the MV. Keep reacting to SB19. Thank you!
THE BEST REACTOR OF GENTO SO FAR 😮💨👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Even with Filipino reactors themselves YOUR REACTION IS THE BEST 🤌🏻🔥
Amazing how you react about Gento by SB19 and admired your review was almost correct. Sb19 is that they were Gold as Gento (like this) . Thank you for the wonderful review , reaction and hopefully you can watch the other #EP_Pagtatag Album like R&B I Want You, Freedom, Liham, Ilaw and Crimzone. MV GENTO is No. 6 now in Billboard Digital Charts.
Wow I really love how you breakdown the song and you really get the message of the song. Thank you for reacting to our PPop kings. I hope this is not the last cos they have so much to offer you and I can't wait to watch your reactions. Definitely subscribing to your channel.
Amazing in depth analysis. So spot on!
the realisation this RV made me is the fact that how Foreigners like you sir was able to digest and appreciate the Song, lyrics,the video, overall artistry SB19 showcased meanwhile I am sad at how our fellow filipinos can’t even understand the meaning of the song even if the lyrics are filipino itself(not to generalise tho). Thank you for the genuine reaction sir. salute.
Your reaction is like GENTO✨. Thank you for reacting to SB19 GENTO💙
Oh my gosh, I literally felt goosebumps while listening to you debunk this song. You are so genius when it comes to interpreting. I suggest you watch some of their other songs since all of their songs have a double meaning in them, especially CRIMEZONE. Keep up! Thank you for supporting these boys, you got me subscribed :)
thanks for the reactions from Philippines your explanation! is impressive you explain exactly gento''''
SB19 is not just an artist,
SB19 is a movement! 🙌
Love your reaction! more of this pls!
Btw im now your subscriber so i can catch up every SB19 reaction vid from you!😊
WOW! Deep reactions. I appreciate how you were able to magnify the deep issues that are showcased in this seemingly comedic-serious mv. Great job! SB19 have a lot more stuff to show..hope you continually support them. #pinoypride:)
You are one of the reviewers who can relate. Most says wow or the same. Just that. You talk wisdom. Excellent.
i love how they include in every music video the social issues of Philippines. They really are the SUPER GROUP that is still striving to break barriers when it comes to music which leads them being recognized around the world.
Thank you DG you are perfectly right coz Sb19 songs have a deeper meaning very intellectual so its not just a sing and dance songs. If you check the other songs of the group you will realized why they are called the PPop king.❤❤❤❤
New subs here ❤from 🇵🇭
Btw, very good analysis.. I like how you analyze not only the lyrics but the whole mv and what they are depicted. If you dive into their history as a group, your analysis is correct.. Good job
Thank you for this RV, yours my fave so far, you nailed it, and I appreciate that you did some research before this. GENTO (lyrics) represents their struggles, it's just 1 of the songs from their latest EP named 'PAGTATAG' which means Established. Hope you could listen to their other songs and see more of your SB19 songs' RVs.
I love how you react the song, you surely understand the meaning and you explain it well. Most people don't understand the meaning of the song when they react, but you nailed it.
The most intelligent reaction to Gento i have ever watched..
I mean, breaking down the lyrics and interpreting every move their make is just so freaking awesome ❤
They started PPOP to be open on stage and how they struggle hard before the pandemic..how bashers spitted them and smeared them with filthy words but they remained positive and patient. During the pandemic they became our sedative from anxieties that we face as Filipinos working abroad. They are our stress reliever. I am forever grateful. I love SB19 for life
Best reaction I've ever seen. Amazing insights!
I learned the things that I missed when I first watch the MV from your review/ reaction, In that, I am already one of your subscribers.. keep it up.. ❤
love how you took the time to analyze the lyrics and the music video
First ever reaction that I saw that really dissected the meaning of the song and not just reacting to the beat, kodus!
Wow this is an amazing reaction vid..you really gave a lot of focus on the meaning..loved it!
They say, the bigger your brain is the smarter you are.... Of all the reactors I've watched you have the biggest brain dude!!!!!
You got it ALL right!!! Thank you for the reaction and review. Hope to see more SB19 RVs in the future ❤❤❤❤
THE GOLD IS THEM! Deym right! Love this RV! Thanks for checking them out!
Regardless of the references that you weren't able to get because it's from the Filipino culture, you grasped the meaning of the song perfectly... This reaction is the most comprehensive analysis that i have ever watch about gento so far... Thank you so much for this... There's so much more to discover about this group and i hope you'll love them too... Good day and God bless! ❤❤❤
One of the smartest reactor reacting to SB19 GENTO, You're definitely know what you're saying. Great looking forward for more 🥰
I so love this mv reaction. There's a lot of points for discussion and you got most of the meanings hidden in this song. Others just gave facial reactions. While it's true that there's a lot of Filipino references here, they are experienced worldwide. I love that you read the lyrics❤. I enjoyed this so much. Thank you
New sub here. Its one of the most interesting review on Gento MV. Most of what you said is correct. SB19 has been and still working their ass of just to get to their dream of World Recognition and bringing with them is our countries life lessons, culture and they proudly waved our flag.
They debut 2018 but started training around 2014. They've been through so much. Calling them names, kpop wannabe, visuals are not pleasing, etc. but still they continue with their dream and beat the odds thats why in the lyrics IT IS RARE TO FIND SOMEONE LIKE THEM. ThEY BLEED SWEAT & TEARS just to get here. ALSO ENCOURAGING EVERYONE TO FIGHT FOR YOUR DREAM IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE. Push yourself to the limits, get out of your comfort zone.
More reaction for SB19 please. I TELL YOU ALL THEIR SONGS ARE LIKE TREASURE HUNTING. So many hidden messages. ❤
Hi~ I saw this posted by another A'TIN. Here are some few notes here since the song have a lot of Filipino references:
1. Pablo cooking scene - The ingredients in the pot he's cooking are for the Filipino dish called "nilaga", this is reference to PH proverb, "Pag may tiyaga, may nilaga" which means "hard work has its rewards"
2. Stell shower scene - In PH since the weather is very hot here our body produces this "sour" smell in the armpit (that's why we always use deo) so people who don't take of their hygiene here are called "maasim" literally "sour" so then he said in the lyrics that no matter how sweaty and sour he smell after all the hardwork he did all day the haters are more "sour" than him/them.
3. Josh rap part - He said that he will not swallow a stone because he's not Darna, Darna is a PH Icon Comics hero, she swallows a "stone" before she transform on her Darna form, so what he's saying is he's no superhero.
- He said that he's his own mechanic and don't need "Moniko", this is reference to a PH tongue twister: "Minikaniko ni Moniko, ang makina ni Monika" which translate to "Moniko fixed Monika's engine" so he's saying that he doesn't need anyone's help to build himself.
4. Justin switch with the dog - This is reference to Filipino term "dogshow" used when you are clowning/making fun of something/ someone. It can either be you're making fun of another person or you're making fun of yourself. It's "dogshow" because on literal dog shows, the dogs are being displayed to the public to make "tricks" who else does "tricks"?- Clowns. 5. SB19 no eyebrows scene
- If you raised your eyebrows on someone, you're judging them, right? Or being mean to them. On the MV lyrics says to burn their brows. In PH there is this saying when you are studying hard, "nagsusunog ng kilay" which means burning their brows because their faces are buried on the book. So they're probably saying that instead of raising your eye brows on someone (judge them) why don't u just burn your brows (study) because the haters are basically dumb.
EXTRA: Not a Filipino reference but at the end, the alien scene, they're actually mocking their Alab MV. (watch alab my again and focus on the last part) This is because during that time they are fully managed by their Korean management SBT which made them do things they don't want to do as the group.
In Alab MV, for example, they are promoted as "PPOP" but the MV literally starts and ended with someone speaking in Korean so PH netizens bashed SB19 about being a KPOP wanna be, no originality, and having no Filipino roots in their music.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR APPRECIATING THEIR MUSIC~

So far this is the greatest reaction video that I've ever watched for 'Gento", down to the very meaning of the lyrics. You've done your research very well. The SB19 is phenomenal they are heavily criticized at first but through it all, they still rose to fame locally and internationally and they say it all in that song "Gento" for what they've been through all odds.
Wow.. so amazing.. On point realization, thankyou for reacting Sb19 Gento❤❤
I love your reaction… best interpretation of the lyrics….pls react to more of SB19 songs from their new EP… you will be blown away…. New sub here 😊
Wow, really loved your R/V! Thank you for this! I appreciate you going beyond the sound and aesthetics of this MV (which are both praiseworthy), and digging inside your head (ha, ha, 😀 how co-incidental) the song's layers of meaning. I am quite astounded by how right your thoughts and insights are from start to finish, given that you are listening to them for the first time. You're an intelligent reactor, and being such, I hope you keep on reacting to SB19 songs and following SB19 content, because they are intelligent artists and musicians as well. It will be an exciting journey to dig into their discography. They music always keeps on giving.
Thanks your the best reactor of “Gento”, talented SB19 always amaze us❤❤❤❤❤
I’ve watched many reactors on youtube for years. Let me tell you this, you definitely shine among the rest. You don’t just react on what you hear/see, instead you go deeper with the meaning. Very impressive 👏🏼 Smart indeed. Keep it up!
