@@mfkimkai The only song I can think of is "Enemy", but that's Wendy who's in the song with Taemin. I might as well go check into his albums again cause we definitely love this kind of collabs between SM artists (in his debut album he had Kai in a song and it's really cool).
2:55 I love how she sings the first line here super soft and light and progressively gets more aggressive in the next line, to the point that she's basically growling
Especially when that part was literally right after her "sweet and bitter" line. She gave us sweet then things got bitter. Pls, it's so pleasing to listen to.
@@michamochaoh that line and vocal got me chills 1st time I herd that song till now ; it's my favorite line and sound coz it's reminds me of a violin string note. With that vocal she styled frm high note to low register it's very violin masterpiece kind of play it's tingling and light&smooth Then next second she growl like what violin aggressive part of play.
@@lunazulc18 I read somewhere else that it means she would do anything, even kiss our brother, just to hurt us (i say our but you get what I mean lmfaoo)
It definitely feels like a deeper dive into the Seulgi & Irene thing they had going on. Seulgi brings the sort of dangerous and “threatening” aspect while Irene brought the cleanliness and refinement (especially the vogueing in Naughty) this solo very much feels like they’re picking her apart in specific aspects and expanding upon it. With Seulgi and Irene you get Monster and when you take Irene out of the picture you get 28 Reasons. I love it!
@@badmiracle i hope too that the unit made a comeback and that their comeback follows up 28 reasons if not at least Monster or if Irene debuts one day that she has a bit of that vibe PS: Irene can do whatever she wants for her debut but I would love somewhat a follow up to Monster or 28 reasons
Someone also said that this may be a part of the kwangya lore. The starting instrumental of 28 reasons sounds like aespa’s illusion which was black mamba’s pov. Also, seulgi has always been suspected to be the black mamba. These theories are getting interesting. 😅
OOOOHHHHH THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE, because at the beginning of monster mv, seulgi’s the one who controls irene but at the end irene takes over and she now controls seulgi. which means seulgi tried to manipulate irene’s mind but got herself manipulated instead and now it is a battle between her inner-self (her bad side and good side).
U forgot Taeyeon and atleast Hyoyeon we need a versatile women. ✊ Edit : ahuh! we must not forget YUNHO & CHANGMIN esp BOA respect the mother and father 😉Instead of BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER,, SM be like : "SM WATER TASTE LIKE WATER"
@@RoamingFlower yeah but Boa has it's own style if this song for boa it would be different for me Seulgi devoured this more bcoz of appealing smooth thin vocal which add to her mysterious theme and aura,, Boa has it's owned but she doesn't have mysterious boa is more of Janet type of soloist artist Seulgi is kind of beyonce type of if we could tell what's the different of this two... And for me THIS SONGS REALLY OWNED BY SEULGI ONLY..
I've seen people shitting on how 'simple' the MV looks like and I wish they could watch this video and know why it looks unlike the regular kpop mvs. Plus the moment I saw the MV I knew Seulgi herself wanted this film-like simplicity, like this cleancut sophistication. Mother was mothering real hard 🛐
Let's be real, a lot of Kpop fans don't know why they want want they say they want. Seulgi is a performer first and foremost. Drowning her in CG and huge sets when we know her for her aura and choreo would have been a huge injustice to her. Some people just don't get it.
I think people sre disappointed because the trailer was so cinematic with so different sets and storyline while this mv is a basic kpop mv with beauty shots and dance shots. Its not bad but people expected something new and interesting because of the trailer
@@Bohbohboh_36373 People set themselves up like that. Every album trailer is like that and is meant to sell the whole album. And no, the music video does have meaning?? Again, just because it's not flashy doesn't mean there isn't a story. Seulgi didn't want it to be over the top. The location shots are gorgeous. And did you not want her to have choreo or look hot?? It's a fine music video and doesn't warrant this much shit from people.
I don't think people basically understand the depth of these videos. If one syncs the lyrics with the video itself, it would be a revelation. A reactor on Reacttothek's channel interpreted this song as referring to Seulgi's (and in extension all humans) two sides. And the MV plays out those two sides. And that the reason it's called 28 reasons is because she is 28 and has been with herself for 28 years giving her 28 reasons. It gave me chills. This is one of the best MVs I have seen till now because of its commitment to its theme of the song. So it's not just gorgeous shots. The shots have a meaning behind them. Which links up with the message written in the end.
I have a feeling that will be one the biggest names in kpop, not Red Velvet Seulgi, but Seulgi herself. She has everything a soloist should have. All the talents required, creativity, and passion. You can feel the passion oozing out from ever aspect of this comeback.
I wished seulgi MV will enter MTV music awards next year... I mean her 28 REASON MV is a whole new level in kpop for female music industry this generation as soloist it's not just about her MV but as in whole concept esp lyrics... . Nominated is already a big achievement coz we know it's a fan voting so yeah.. Wished that for seulgi.
Seulgi wouldn't have let these locations and shots in if she didn't want them herself. She said so herself in the interviews. Her body language is clear and enticing through-out. Anything more around her would have been too much. Everything is focused on her, where you can't run or hide from what she's doing. People wanted blood or gore from her for horror, but sometimes the scariest thing around you is yourself. It's perfect. This set was visualized by her and delivered with the art in mind.
this is the most haunting and shivering i have ever watched and heard in kpop. I'm screaming that this became seulgi's first ever solo. Knowing that seulgi is very hands on with this, proud is an understatement 💯
I'm speechless oh lord this is something else that I've never seen this evilness & dope in SM entertainment , this fit's her like a glove!! Seulgi you are amazing And thanks you for this amazing reaction
I still can't believe that I finally got to witness Seulgi's solo debut. I remember being mesmerized by her pre-debut videos and years later she has become my ultimate bias. It's just the beginning of her solo career but I have full faith she will have fun and rock the stage in the years to come. Yass we got 'temptress' Seulgi after seeing her fluffy Ddeulgi side. The whole album and mv is just so amazing, I'm sorry I can't describe my emotions well enough like others. Definitely 100000000000/10!!! Seulgi is so dreamy, sexy, graceful, beautiful... just wow! Thank you for the reaction, PDnim. Glad you enjoyed it 💛
Once again PD just owns the technical detailed in-depth filmakers take on the video production, the filming, cinematography, editing, and history of kpop music videos. There are other pretenders who think they know but PD is legit and the real... Oh and Seulgi just owns my life... 😍
This is everything I expected from Seulgi, with perfect execution. I feel like this is a mix of Changmin and Boa styles, and only Seulgi could pull this off.
If you look at the music video, sometimes the one who sleeps and is chained up is Seulgi who is wearing a white shirt (human good side), but also sometimes the one who is sleeping is Seulgi who is wearing a black shirt (human bad side (evil)). That's the visual they try to explain at the end of the video
I also immediately thought about Max Changmin's "Devil" during my first watch, and that got me into a whole spiral of thoughts about how Taemin's "Idea" also has that same duality, and I ended up freaking out about how a lot of the SM soloists lately either play into the "divinity" theme (Key, Taeyeon, Kai, BoA ft. Xin) or into the "villain" theme (Max, Taemin, Seulgi, Hyo), sometimes sharing that dark tone we also get here with Seulgi! I don't know if this is intentional, if there's a bigger vision behind it or if the artists are simply sharing a similar interest in these darker concepts, but I love it regardless and I honestly think it also plays really well into the whole Kwangya universe they have going on!
My favorite songs from this album are 28 reasons and Los Angeles! She is beyond talented. I’m fairly new to red velvet and I kinda like suelgi going with the dark aesthetic!
A collab with Seulgi×Changmin is really a good ideia , and my dream is a Seulgi×Taemin collab couse they a two artista who are good on sing+dance+visual+stage presence The vibes really resembles
First off, thank you PD for reacting as always! Just the concept I'd expect from Seulgi, very artistic as seen in her music with Irene and Bambam. This song is definitely a grower!
It’s not only consistent with red velvet’s musicscape but also their visual themes and storytelling so far. As we know Seulgi has had that villain/evil queen persona for a while now (e.g: psycho, monster and FMR).
Yesss you've captured everything I feel about this solo debut. I'm deep in the reacts rabbit hole but Seulgi slayed us so hard that I haven't heard anyone really talk much about the film-making aspects of the video, so this was extremely satisfying. Except for the first line and the English whisper moment, yeah it's EVERYTHING I would have expected, but delivered at a level that still is so impressive it blew me away. I also think you're the first to comment on the duality being expressed MUSICALLY and not just visually or lyrically, so that is super cool.
I’m so happy that Seulgi’s solo follows Red Velvet’s dark velvet side. It’s always been her sound within the group. Wendy followed the ballad velvet side (OOTN). Joy was summer red (Red Flavor). Seulgi did the darker R&B velvet (Psycho and Bad Boy).
I think in terms of artistic style and musically, Seulgi it's the best one. She is capable to do everything and she'll do it marvelously, Seulgi says we have 28 reasons to run away, I'm telling you that she gives me 28 reasons to stay!
This is the scariest I've seen Seulgi be in my entire life, and she absolutely nailed this concept. I've been waiting to see Seulgi have a solo debut, and this is all I could ever ask for. Her dancing and this entire MV was just art, and beautiful art. This shows us what Seulgi is truly capable of, and we been known about this woman's talent for almost 8 years now. But this shows us her true ability to show us the kind of amazing dancer she is and always has been.
there were visuals in the teaser, mood sampler and trailer that I believe wasn't included in the MV and it made it so much more interesting than it already was
This song is so good 😭😭😭 I didn't expect that 90s western girlgroup type sound mixed with heavenly SM mixing. It's so incredibly amazing I can't even put it into words. The mv, choreo, styling and of course Seulgi's absolutely unreal vocals just take this to the next level.
I feel like most reaction videos can take a couple of days for PD to post but this one came out hours afterwards. I know PD was seated & ready & lives up to that "I love Seulgi" line at the beginning.
I feel like this song is also like a letter to/about herself, like she’s talking about how her whole life she’s struggled with internal feelings of greed, temptation while also trying to “not be captivated by evil”, clinging desperately to her own innocence, trying to do right by herself and others
Please, I was shaking with excitement when her concepts pictures were released and she certainly did not disappoint. Seulgi + dark concepts is a dangerous combination istg. It almost feels like she's a siren here dragging the readers deeper into the chaos that is her. I also love how her dark side have her light side on a chain 😭😭
Liked the input on the cinematic looking shots :) ... I've noticed it in the 2nd watch that the outside shots are unusually cinematic ! Definitely one of the best MVs this year
SM, I usually really don't like 99% of your decisions, BUT this time I AM SO FREAKING HAPPY, they bring what's screams Seulgi style, I can't, I'm so so happy, FANTASTIC SOLO DEBUT aaaaaaaaah💕
Oohh actually there have been theories going around that the Black Mamba exists in different forms and the “evil” members from each groups or artists like Changmin, Taemin and Seulgi could be the Black Mambas. Damn imagine a sub-unit of these three of just an evil, seductive and snakey concept I would love to see that.
Not going to lie, I really didn't expect this sort of sound from her, but I'm all for it. It didn't feel forced and she totally owned it. I'm really impressed and happy for her. I hope everyone likes it as much as I do.
Red Velvet always gives me this horror vibe, slightly off, kinda unsettling but alluring, like you're caught in a spider's web. It's a fantastic song. 💜 Edit: The braids and red zipper thong outfit gives me Christina Aguilera Dirty era vibes.
Also, I've just noticed that the background steel framework at 2:22 is actually the imitation of the steel work of High Tension Power Lines seen in the fields of the first shots of the MV :O
When I saw The cinematography for her trailer I already knew her mv was gonna have the same cinematic Lense also the contrast between the cinematic scenes and dance scenes like in monster added a different feeling especially with how slow it was especially with Kpop mv where they just cut from scene to scene she really brought something new not only cinematically but musically and performance wise she is truly the best female idol of her generation.
really like your feedback, you really understand what the MV trying to portrays, It really emphasis on the Good and Evil feel in it as Seulgi said, as the Good is not purely innocent and the Evil is not entirely bad....that's what the lyric means and MV deliver that....

Also the first line "i kissed your brother" 🥺🤡
@@pulkitgrover8726 that had me shook ngl
FACTS 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 🥴
1 to 5 to 7
ikr
Seulgi and Taemin are the Dark Queen and King of KPOP. This concept is just meant for them and they slay it every single time
Wow I just imagined Taemin's voice with the song at it fits perfectly. They are indeed Dark King and Queen.
if taemin wasn't on military duty, they'd definitely have a song together
@@shush9687 seulgi did have songs with taem...it is such an eargasm to listen them in one song...i never thought i ever need tht in my life
@@mfkimkai The only song I can think of is "Enemy", but that's Wendy who's in the song with Taemin. I might as well go check into his albums again cause we definitely love this kind of collabs between SM artists (in his debut album he had Kai in a song and it's really cool).
So true - Seulgi and Taemin - masters of music universe - amazing masterful talents
2:55 I love how she sings the first line here super soft and light and progressively gets more aggressive in the next line, to the point that she's basically growling

@@Lunafreya_Nox well put!
SO ADDICTIVE
I was GAGGED the second she said I kissed your brother. Like the delivery was so impactful that I took it personally, and I don’t even have a brother🙃
It was such a gripping intro line for sure
@@lunazulc18 I read somewhere else that it means she would do anything, even kiss our brother, just to hurt us (i say our but you get what I mean lmfaoo)

I agree! reminds me of the creepy vibe of irene and seulgi’s monster!
the bit with seulgi and her doppelgänger near the end felt like a nod to naughty, too. god i hope the subunit wasn’t just a one-off. 🥲
@@badmiracle i hope too that the unit made a comeback and that their comeback follows up 28 reasons if not at least Monster or if Irene debuts one day that she has a bit of that vibe

"SM soloists are so scary", YES, all SM needs to do to kill me is put Taemin, Baekhyun, Seulgi, and Key together
U forgot Taeyeon and atleast Hyoyeon we need a versatile women. ✊
Edit : ahuh! we must not forget YUNHO & CHANGMIN esp BOA respect the mother and father
😉Instead of BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER,, SM be like : "SM WATER TASTE LIKE WATER"
how could you forget their mother.
omg Kai's album are also very gooood
My fav soloist yess!
key? be serious
This is the first time I’ve heard seulgi’s vocals so aggressive and with that one part where she does the vocal growl, amazing.
It feels like a Boa/Taemin song and I’m here for it. Can’t wait to see what she gets into in the future
This! I kept thinking that BoA could have done this song easily. ;)
That growl sounds like BoA fr
i definitely got boa vibes listening to the album.
@@RoamingFlower yeah but Boa has it's own style if this song for boa it would be different for me Seulgi devoured this more bcoz of appealing smooth thin vocal which add to her mysterious theme and aura,, Boa has it's owned but she doesn't have mysterious boa is more of Janet type of soloist artist Seulgi is kind of beyonce type of if we could tell what's the different of this two...

This feels like something that Max Changmin would do
"SM soloists are so SCARY"
PERIOD!!! This is me for Baekhyun, Taeyeon, Taemin discographies and now adding Seulgi into my A-List soloist 🔥🤯
Seulgi was so happy whenever fans brought up it felt like a movie in the live countdown cuz that's what was intended this whole album
I've seen people shitting on how 'simple' the MV looks like and I wish they could watch this video and know why it looks unlike the regular kpop mvs. Plus the moment I saw the MV I knew Seulgi herself wanted this film-like simplicity, like this cleancut sophistication. Mother was mothering real hard 🛐
The MV is simple because the song is simple. Sometimes less = more !

Honestly.... this is Seulgi we're talking about.
She's the most well-rounded Idol in the game. Were we really expecting anything less than perfection?

The way Seulgi has effectively introduced us her color with this debut. It’s just too good 🔪⚔️💣🪓⛓
Once again PD just owns the technical detailed in-depth filmakers take on the video production, the filming, cinematography, editing, and history of kpop music videos. There are other pretenders who think they know but PD is legit and the real...

That's the visual they try to explain at the end of the video
Exactly! The one side is chained to other. That's why Seulgi's twin image was used. To deliver that message.
I also immediately thought about Max Changmin's "Devil" during my first watch, and that got me into a whole spiral of thoughts about how Taemin's "Idea" also has that same duality, and I ended up freaking out about how a lot of the SM soloists lately either play into the "divinity" theme (Key, Taeyeon, Kai, BoA ft.

SM’s artistry is out of this world. Like genuises work there or smtg omg
First off PD's fits have always been FUEGO!! 🔥🥂
"Sm soloists are so scary" indeed
Taeyeon, Taemin, Key, Baekhyun, Kai, Seulgi
It's the 'Timbaland for Aaliyah' of it all for me!! Slayed, chewed, everything I needed!
I was thinking the same thing!!😳😭
I have been searching everywhere for this fucking comment!!! Yesss!
I hope they show Seulgi in the recording studio.
conceptually and musically very sound, simple and minimalistic, yet very bold. and the vocals dammit the VOCALS!!!
SUPERIOR!!!!!!
I love that they didn't try to cram a rap verse in, so refreshing
My favorite songs from this album are 28 reasons and Los Angeles! She is beyond talented. I’m fairly new to red velvet and I kinda like suelgi going with the dark aesthetic!
And I love how it's just so... HER! Like you can FEEL the life she breathed into this project. I LOVE IT
A collab with Seulgi×Changmin is really a good ideia , and my dream is a Seulgi×Taemin collab couse they a two artista who are good on sing+dance+visual+stage presence
The vibes really resembles
First off, thank you PD for reacting as always!
Just the concept I'd expect from Seulgi, very artistic as seen in her music with Irene and Bambam. This song is definitely a grower!
This song is so great unique but sounds so good.
Yes! Some other reactor said they expected a dance song, and I was like no hunny! This is exactly what I was expecting from Seulgi, pure art!
It’s not only consistent with red velvet’s musicscape but also their visual themes and storytelling so far. As we know Seulgi has had that villain/evil queen persona for a while now (e.g: psycho, monster and FMR).
SEULGI SLAYED!!
you should hear the album… it’s a masterpiece literally 😩😩.
I would love to see Seulgi and Max colab as well!!! Maybe in the end of the year with the smtown album 😍
This is one of my favourite releases of 2022. Seulgi was absolutely phenomenal. What a song!
It's like the good and bad fighting in one person.
Yesss you've captured everything I feel about this solo debut. I'm deep in the reacts rabbit hole but Seulgi slayed us so hard that I haven't heard anyone really talk much about the film-making aspects of the video, so this was extremely satisfying.

I’m so happy that Seulgi’s solo follows Red Velvet’s dark velvet side. It’s always been her sound within the group.
Wendy followed the ballad velvet side (OOTN). Joy was summer red (Red Flavor). Seulgi did the darker R&B velvet (Psycho and Bad Boy).

You managed to put what I was feeling about this into words. It's almost hypnotic and just draws you in like nothing else. So, so good.
one of the best mvs I’ve watched in a long time, she is so talented. An all-rounder.
Thank you so much for this reaction PD! ❤
This is the scariest I've seen Seulgi be in my entire life, and she absolutely nailed this concept. I've been waiting to see Seulgi have a solo debut, and this is all I could ever ask for.

She is just perfect
tbh this song sits with
yves new ,olivia hye egoistic,invu taeyon,want taemin,rose otg. most unique solo songs
She remembers me a BOA music in the 00's. I love how their voice sounds so deep, dark and gorgeous. She's stunning in all the ways ♡ I love her solo ♡

She's an amazing artist and performer! Can't wait to see the live stages!!
this and dead man runnin' are ones of the best kpop releases i've heard so far this year and that speaks something
This is everything I wanted for a Seulgi solo. Dangerous & amazing. 💜
I would love to know your comments on Seulgi's album trailer because it's just so good! Very cinematic and eerie!
Seulgi and Max Changmin? That would kill me, so of course I want it.
Liked the input on the cinematic looking shots :) ... I've noticed it in the 2nd watch that the outside shots are unusually cinematic ! Definitely one of the best MVs this year
A 10/10 for sure. The whole album is great, it is cohesive, super cool. I also thought of her and Changmin together haha
SM, I usually really don't like 99% of your decisions, BUT this time I AM SO FREAKING HAPPY, they bring what's screams Seulgi style, I can't, I'm so so happy, FANTASTIC SOLO DEBUT aaaaaaaaah💕
If group not.. But soloist Yesss they let their soloist do what they want to their music now esp their album and Artistry.
imo SM is usually good with solo releases with their artists
Oohh actually there have been theories going around that the Black Mamba exists in different forms and the “evil” members from each groups or artists like Changmin, Taemin and Seulgi could be the Black Mambas.
Damn imagine a sub-unit of these three of just an evil, seductive and snakey concept I would love to see that.
So basically Black Mamba isn’t really a person themselves but is more of a shapeshifter
right!! the stills feel like a scene from a movie, even the beauty shots looked diff compared to other idol mvs
I love that she still stayed with the iconic RV dark horror aesthetic it suits her so well
Not going to lie, I really didn't expect this sort of sound from her, but I'm all for it. It didn't feel forced and she totally owned it. I'm really impressed and happy for her. I hope everyone likes it as much as I do.
Get ready for Red Velvet 2022 Domination❤🧡💙💚💜
you should check out her opening film for this comeback.... it was AMAZING
If BoA and Billie eilish's music had a child this would be it. Combined with seulgi's voice this is great.
PD, you should watch the trailer!!! That one is insane!!
pd i’m loving the brown jacket
cranking up the volume at 2:36, a mood
love your reaction to this! seulo fighting!
Red Velvet always gives me this horror vibe, slightly off, kinda unsettling but alluring, like you're caught in a spider's web. It's a fantastic song. 💜 Edit: The braids and red zipper thong outfit gives me Christina Aguilera Dirty era vibes.
Her solo album is way better than i expected.
Also, I've just noticed that the background steel framework at 2:22 is actually the imitation of the steel work of High Tension Power Lines seen in the fields of the first shots of the MV :O
Seulgi prefers artistic songs over popular songs
I love the jacket PD!!!!
When I saw The cinematography for her trailer I already knew her mv was gonna have the same cinematic Lense also the contrast between the cinematic scenes and dance scenes like in monster added a different feeling especially with how slow it was especially with Kpop mv where they just cut from scene to scene she really brought something new not only cinematically but musically and performance wise she is truly the best female idol of her generation.
I would LOVE to see her collab with Changmin and Taemin. The three of them have such similar vibes with their music
I immediately heared BoA in this song. But that is a compliment. This song, and production is amazing.
28 Reasons seriously blew me away... way exceed my expectations. This music is a 'Must Earphone' song... that hard bass is hard, hard.
Seulgi is art
I was waiting for you to do the teaser reaction; it looked more like a movie. Amazing Seulgi, awesome reaction bro!👍🏽🫶
This song is so good!!! Red Velvet songs never miss
The song is sooo good!
But also, seriously that look is fresh PD! That coat is 🔥
An awesome debut, I really enjoyed the song, music, choreo and MV.
I don't need to explain hey Seulgi is my ultimate bias do I, haha? Nah, I don't think so, enjoy her greatness.
Bruh just wanna say your fit is so good. You look so great!
This is honestly 100% what I was expecting
What WE we’re expecting. I’m not shocked but I’m pleased. I hope the rest of the tracks follow suit
really like your feedback, you really understand what the MV trying to portrays, It really emphasis on the Good and Evil feel in it as Seulgi said, as the Good is not purely innocent and the Evil is not entirely bad....that's what the lyric means and MV deliver that....
''WELL FED'' yesss agreed
This reaction is LITERALLY ON POINT 💯🐻💛🔥🔥🔥🔥
I DEFINITELY AGREE ITS A SHORT MOVIE INDEED. LOVE YOUR REACTION🥺🐻💛
Her debut is so good, the whole album is amazing, played on repeat whole they when it came out 😌❤️❤️❤️
THIS IS ARTTTTT 🧡🧡🧡
This. Is. What. I. Wanted.
