NMIXX - "O.O" MV | REACTION
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 чер 2024
- A peculiar, disjointed, yet exciting debut! I wonder where this goes in all aspects. Supposedly they stand for "now, new, next and the unknown." It'll be interesting to see if JYP can make good on the lofty concept.

#NMIXX #O.O
yes, you are right that "freaky fishy" song in the debut trailer is a b-side. It is called "Tank", and it was produced by someone who produces a lot of songs for SM boy groups.
Tank always reminded me of a nct song and now it makes total sense why
The girls are very clearly talented, and there were parts of this that I genuinely enjoyed, but I have to be honest I spent most of the song and video going "?????". This just wasn't it for me at all, but I'm genuinely interested to see where they could possibly go from here.
JESUS NOBODY TALK THEY AREN"T TALENTED!! Song is just bad! IT'S JYP ON CRACK!! You can see deference between production, composing song, write lyrics, arranging them and what most idols do just sing/rap and dance - because they forced to do by people behind them! CEO saying he want this and girls doing that;P Song is trash just one piece of MESS loud, i don;'t blame girls, i blame JYPE because they did that;P
listen to it on spotify and weekly idol performance it is 10 times better to digest
Same
there are some parts that i like, but oh god.. they should just leave the experimental sound to SM cause at least they know how to do it
and JYPE did the girls so dirty, they barely debuted and are already receiving backlash for copying ATEEZ's storyline and a lot of their mv scenes too
wow i hadn't watched the first video that introduces their storyline but now i understand why atinys were mad abt it... it's not just about having similar scenes or locations to ateez mvs but it's like jyp 'copied' their storyline?
Maybe people who don't stan them can't quite pinpoint all of this but let me explain:
Ateez introduced their pirate concept with a whole introduction video with epic narrating and beautiful shots of the dessert. Apart of nmixx introduction having shots of the dessert too, the title is 'declaration' which is the name of one of ateez intros. Moreover, in nmixx introduction and MV they created an image of sea animals floating in the sky and that same thing happens at the end of ateez MV 'thanxx' cause they are pirates with a floating ship. A ship that has appeared on ateez Illusion MV floating among pink clouds and literally with the same colours, aesthetic and appearance that the one in nmixx MV. And it's not only the ship that's almost the same to ateez in that whole scene but also the trees/half trees/bushes they're standing on. You can see a tree like that, standing in the sky coming out of the clouds in ateez fever part 2 photo concept.
I don't want this to be so long so i'm going to try to summarize:
Nmixx introduction says 'open your eyes, and ateez have the same phrase for their concept (it appears in their song Wave, their overture Crescent, etc). Nmixx introduction says 'some may laugh at us' and 'towards the utopia' while ateez also try to reach the utopia in their storyline and made a song called Utopia (with MV so it's important) in which they literally talk abt the same thing (they say even though people laugh they will continue to chase their dreams). Other things they say also appear in ateez songs multiple times: 'without hesitation', not because it's easy', 'towards the ocean' etc.
Also, i've seen pics of what i believe is the story they tell in their albums and is also so similar to ateez album story (even the design and writing is so similar) so it just can't be only a bunch of coincidences.
I want to clarify all the complains are being directed towards jyp, cause the girls are so talented, but i think they need better management.
Keep in mind, JYP debuting girl groups close together is nothing new.
Wonder Girls (2007), Miss A (2010), TWICE (2015), ITZY (2019), and NMIXX (2022)
*but also their Japanese group NiziU (2020)
The only good things to say about this debut is that the girls performed their hearts out with the crappy material they were given and the MV was beautifully shot, even if they couldn't make up their minds what the concept was supposed to be.
True
Feels like JYP tried to pull an SM. Most of SM's stuff isn't for me, and this isn't either. I'm almost surprised someone went "yes, this is the one". It sure is bold, I'll give them that.
Maybe this is another example of an entire song and MV being built in service of the lore, not the other way around? I dunno.
I recommend checking out ZSunder's (superb) edit titled [[NMIXX "O.O" if the Superhero part was a full song]]
That middle section reminds me of Itzy, and maybe that's why JYP didn't want to dwell too much on it.
Starship ENT (WJSN, IVE, and a few other groups) is sponsored by Pepsi. It seems like JYP recently got a Coke sponsorship, b/c its not just NMIXX, one of their boy groups also had coke related stuff in it.
After hearing lily speaking about the whole whatever i forgot. It makes so much sense the song omgggggg. The breakdown bubble world is the utopia and pretty fun and care -free. But then they are suddenly hit by reality omggh the song kinda makes sense(even if it didnt i like it). It makes sense or i am overthinking
It definitely does, people are quick to judge these queens.
Yeahh they judging the girls without knowing behind of the song.
Yeah it makes so much sense. And most people are straight up hating like why
It's actually not that hard to figure out the meaning of the song just by dissecting the lyrics. Most of these people just can't grasp it or doesn't want to
19:02 "what are these lyrics?"
Easy answer they are not Lyrics...
Its a bunch of random OO sounding words, with an occasional ALAL sounds
Thank you for your honesty, I'm in the camp that isn't a fan of this song in the least, I can agree with the notion that experimentation is the leading force towards the progress of art, but experimentation should also be controlled and regulated, this was just chaos to me I'm sorry, I'm not even a fan of music like aespa's and stray kids but you can call that experimental and maybe get away with it, but this was just the equivalent of taking an antibiotic that is to be injected into a lab mouse and dropping a bucket load of it over a grapevine, that's just not how experimentation works
They’re so clearly talented singers and dancers, but the songs are just horrible so far, so I feel bad for them with that. I’m just trying to imagine a world where I actually want to listen to this song. I think I’m also just so done with the “what it our songs sounded like a highlight medley?” trend.
I just want to say, I’ve told you before but I appreciate your honesty in your reactions. I’ve seen a few other reactors I watch sometimes looking dead behind the eyes like, “No, this is good”. I like that I can genuinely trust you to give an honest take on the song without it just being strictly shitting on it.
Also I see a lot of people saying “I didn’t like it at first but after listening 6 or 7 times I like it now”. Like, that’s not a bop, that’s Stockholm Syndrome.
@@stephenball2108 usually this is me but I’ve listened to it like 5 times on my own and about 10 times throughout different reactors and I dislike it everytime. The middle part is so good and then instantly get disappointed when it switches back
It's like JYP was on something and not the good stuff
@@TheYawningPanda I agree I think JYP was on something and not the good stuff either
I like Song A, I like noisy and dissonant experimental stuff. I like Song B. I don't like song A and B smooshed together into one song. The rest of the issues, in terms of concepts or plagiarism are nonissues to me.
I really love their song especially the second verse, it sounds like high school musical
Just my thought, I think only SM can pull out these kinds of experimental musics and concepts.. because they know what there’re doing. But I don’t get this debut song and what JYP wants to show us.
yeap that is Lily narrating the declaration, you can tell by her Aussie accent lol
I feel so bad for the members. Imagine you get into JYP, train hard every day and then your debut is a coke advertisement? There is even a second part to that at 12:44.
The second part is actually an enjoyable listen. Still not what I would consider JYP standards myself but the vibe and styling is really nice.
But I pretty much hated everything else about this debut. The Coke Zero ad made my brain instantly reject the first half of the song. It's a pity because the predebut live clips were pretty sick. The dance and vocal covers piqued my interest. But this song is messy and goes about mixing genres the wrong way imo. If you look at 2nd gen kpop and even aespas title tracks, the blend of genres hits you in the face but in a refreshing and weirdly satisfying way. There's none of that here; even on the spotify version of the song, the transition is nonexistent.
The contrast between this song and DALLA DALLA is just so stark. I really wonder where JYP decide to take these girls in the future consider this weird debut. Hopefully they get the opportunity to shine better as their career goes on. Debuting through JYP means that at least they will have more chances to get more appealing concepts and songs. Moreso than if they were from a smaller company for sure.
The second part was so interesting and good. It still had a unique sound but more enjoyable to the ear. And I loved that their vocals shined in that part. That part seemed to just suit their presence and style the most compared to the other two parts. I really wish it was its own separate song.
Also I agree that the ateez copyright accusation feels like a stretch. It’s not a new concept to have floating ships in the air or to film in an alleyway looking at the sky
The concept of going into the utopia also changes the vibe. Like in the declaration trailer, in the utopia they feel really happy. But once they close their eyes the reality comes back. And so is the song goes back to dark side. Where happiness exists with pain. The ending credits the PICK N MIXX, the PICK is no longer on which leaves us to N MIXX. You can no longer pick it's all mixed.
Also the lyrics have the lore in them. Tho I hoped the transitions weren't a bit off. I did enjoy the individual parts but as an overall song... Idk at first but it's growing.. if only the transitions are good I'll dig it at first
Nice...thank you for playing DM as your bgm... Thank you again for promoting fromis' song
Good reaction. Personally this was not my type of music.
But on a more important subject... Are you going to cover any of the Queendom stuff coming out lately... and of course when the competition series comes out in late March? It will of course have our girls of the month competing!! How excited are you?!! Loona
their pre-debut vocal and dancer covers are very good. All of them are incredible singers and dancers. JYP in the past focused more on dancing and performance, and less on vocals. But this group seems to have it all.
they have live vocals in some of their pre-debut covers. they would go live for like 4 minutes on youtube, sing a song, say thanks, and then end the live stream.
A highlight medley can’t be a song. They shoulda extracted the 2 songs and made them their own songs
There's no cohesiveness because it was meant to show different genres in one song. Like a perfect switch-up. They're trying to show their versatility
100% agree with not really liking the intro part, then the last half of the song is great. I think the MV really saved this song for me. I don't know names but the build up where one member is crashing through doors is so cool, and then the rock-inspired part is so beautifully and creatively done. The MV makes it so entertaining to watch. I tried listening to the song without the mv, and I just didn't enjoy it as much. My only couple of complaints is the opening rap rhythm and the vocals are not very prominent. The very first opening rap doesn't match the rising synth imo, but once the beat came in it was fine. The choreo is incredible!!! I heard it was created by Men of the Future who also choreograph for Pixy, so I'm very excited to see it in full!
Also the coke ad doesn't bother me. It just reminds me of Woozi's Ruby😂
I'm surprised I watched this whole vid because I cdnt even bring myself to finish the song the first time I heard it. I dont think this is a song that will ever grow on me and god those lyrics...... I feel like a str8 up boomer being all confused at what the kids call music these days lolll. That being said I'm still curious to see what they'll release next because I do think their concept is q intriguing and they're clearly talented but istg if it's gonna be another O.O....
You talk about the lyrics as if you read everything. And if you did, and you still don't get the message, then it's a 'you' problem
I think it’s just trying to do what next level did
If this song was all structured around the 2nd part of the song, it would be absolutely amazing and one of the best debuts...but its ruined by a lack of structure and cohesiveness and its borderline cringy opening minute. First impressions are important and this "song" starts off with a bad one....Nothing wrong with weird and experimental, ...if its done correctly. Still going to keep an eye on the group cause they are so extremely talented.
It’s safe to say that SM is the company that has the formula for experimental music…and this is JYPE’s fail attempt. I’m disappointed and positive that these girls are extremely talented BUT their debut tells me otherwise.
It's a Dream and Reality, the Dream or the Utopia is the Colorful one, but the reality is the dark one.
the song's structure (and everything else) aside, the whole thing just sounds badly produced... like sloppily recorded and put together. the mixing sounds so off to me - i'm not an expert so idk if that's the right wording, but the vocals sound drowned out, but then the instrumental doesn't sound particulary loud or overbearing either? it just sounds like i'm listening on bad headphones even though i'm not.
there's been 'experimental' kpop songs that i don't like, but they are, at the very least, well produced.
reading through some opinions of the song i haven't seen other people saying this, so i'm not sure whether it truly is just me or if people are stuck on other things so they don't care to mention it..
I love group
2 years later. all people love O.O. lmao
I really don't know about that 😅. Although I do enjoy their newer music a lot more
lilys part in the last chorus still sounds so familiar and I can’t figure it out.
@LilliePads - Not sure if it will be what you were reminded of, but for some reason her part reminds me of Kard's Gunshot? I kept thinking that every time I heard that part at least
@@RaeG_11 YES tysmmmm
We all expect too much!! 🤣
I love it when it gets to the singing parts just hopefully the company will think more carefully about their songs in the future and when you are making new trends in music sometimes you mess up to me the instrumentals didn't mesh well together it's like they took a bunch of different styles and not considering if they would work well together or not to me it seems like it was rushed
PLEASE REACT TO MINNIE'S PERFORMANCE ON LEEMUJIN SERVICE✊🏻
Could the O.O mean infinity? Like JYP saying that this group is going to infinity...?
watch their dance performance in weekly idol
Song = Bad. Everything else = Good.
20:30 sounds like a Kard song to me (I'm not sure which one exactly!)
Oh that's it!!! It sounds exactly like KARD to me
*shrug*, I liked it on second listen, once I got over the initial shock. I don't think it's actually that different from any weird SM song. The one thing I really don't like is the awkward AF product placement with the Coke sponsorship, mainly that they wrote it into the lyrics (peak cringe). Otherwise, it's a fun, different take on the SM formula. The genre isn't going to move forward if only one company ever pushes the envelope.
Speaking of the lyrics, y'all in here need to read them and take their advice to "calm down." A lot of Kpop fans really are shitty about anything they don't like and it shows in some of these comments.
And to be clear I think there are some valid objective criticisms of this debut - PD's point about not doing a good job highlighting each member in the MV is on point. JYP needs to do better with things like that if they want NMIXX to succeed. But that doesn't make the song bad to me.
In my opinion, K-pop is the process of melting all the existing genres into the mix. In other words, the next generation of K-pop seems to want to move forward with new K-pop music that was reborn there, rather than the songs we listened to before. So, the first time you hear a new K-pop, it may feel like a strange music, but as time goes by, I think it will be reborn as a completely new genre of music.
I actively dislike everything in this debut. MV ? Sure is expensive. Does it look good ? Some shots yes. As a whole no. Song ? Some parts ok. Some vocals impressive. As a whole i can't listen to it. It gives me a headache. Dance ? Some parts are interesting and inventive. As a whole ? Just a bag of cool tricks. No real choreo as a whole.
I understand everything is subjective. But i really can't understand liking this song. (Listening 50 times to say i like it doesn't count. Like you can learn to like the worst song in the world like that.)
Just read the lyrics... Their MV on the lyrics said it was just a teaser that is why JYP make it like a messy, on the lyrics it said it was all fake, you need to calm down, watch we are coming soon.
7:14 hands down this. the trailers looks Digipedi but the actual MV doesn't at all
Look, i'm all for experimental sound but this is taking it way too far. The talent of the girls shines through in some parts of the "song" but this debut ain't it.I didn't like Next Level but in comparison to this it at least sounded like a song.
just noticed i have the exact same floor lamp as you lmfao
honestly, not really a fan of the song, i love the girls so much but the song really is disappointing me. the structure is all over the place, it's like verse, 2nd verse, verse again. a song, a pop song at the very least, should have at least, verse, pre-chorus, chorus, reff, that's why we can enjoy it right? but this? i don't even know what i just listened.
U r right… some orbits can be toxic n fanatics with their own gg, until they hate on other groups who “steal” or plagiarised their concept. Anyway, stop hating on nmixx.. Loona will be loona, Nmixx will be their own.. no hate
The girls are talented but there is so much going on the video or the song that you can't focus on the members or determine whose singing or dancing
React to Xdinary Heroes debut "Happy Death Day" i want to see what you think.
I actually really disliked it so never recorded one. I have reacted to some of their covers and their whole weekly idol episode on Patreon. Can totally see their talent, just hoping for a better song for the first comeback
they are copy of others group (concept, music style, signature, etc.) like loona, enhypen, ateez, aespa, treasure has been copied by this group!
This is probably the worst (Kpop) song I've heard. First off, it is not new that Kpop mixes different songs in one song, such as Next Level by Aespa, but this song's MV is not even consistent. The song structure itself is highly inconsistent and the same as the MV. The opening looks like they are going to a war and then suddenly transitions to a coke commercial?? Then the MV became so colourful, like some Twice content?? Second off, everyone knows this is a debut song, but you don't need to repeat that in your lyrics. I can't believe they just tell people this is a teaser and their content is coming soon etc.. What is this nonsense? so for their next comeback, are they gonna tell people this is our first comeback and pls look forward in the lyrics?? Last but not least, they are a jyp girl group. We had so many good gg debut songs such as Tell Me, Bad girl good girl, Like Woo ahh and Dalla2. Wtf is this song? Does JYP himself even want to listen to this song?? I was sad I didnt buy JYPn but now I'm so happy I didn't purchase it lol
I think it's safe to say that if u listen to this like 5-10x it gets more addicting at catchy. The song is not that bad, you'll get use to it. Also they are so talented
this might be the worst debut ive seen yet for me i fear, its just so messy and disappointing
like dont even get me started on the lyrics, jarring song transitions, raps if u could even call it that, and switchup, like the girls r talented but this song is just not it
Actually it doesn't matter if the song is good or bad. People will still pay attention to it cause they're from big company. If groups from smaller company get this type of song, and if the song is bad they will get criticised but if the song is good they will not pay attention to it.
You need to pay really attention to all in here ir you want to understand what's going on! ( Choreography, Lyrics & mv itself) & of course the name of the group & their debut song (O.O) they just not put that & that's it, no!! There's a porpuse to all of that. I personally really like this song a lot & this is something something fresh from JYPE & I'm here for it
fResH from JyPe, stawwpp cuz its funny how they wanna copy another group💀
please do not comment and try to undermine the ateez plagiarism allegations if you do not know the whole story. it's about the lore and use of ateez specific things more than it's about 'sh00ting in alleys'. Thank you
Nah there ain't much there
I really didn't like this at all & I feel bad about that honestly because I know they are very talented & this didn't show that
the lyrics was just nonsense & the song isn't cohesive at all. I do like the colorful middle part of the song with the rock-ish sound tho
I am upset at jype itself too because they released a statement basically setting these girls up & got them plus upset at how jype now claiming that mashup songs & experimental songs is something just now got created & will be through this group when mashup songs have been around since 1st generation like in the 90's mostly till now done by sm artists so these girls now gonna get hate because of that & they don't deserve that
also yes they are sponsored by coca cola explains the budget for the mv. and their storyline apparently will be connected to other jyp groups storylines because yes jyp is also doing a whole company connected storyline like sm
One of the worst debut songs that I know. And I have been around since Bae Seul Gi... This sound like a poor attempt by JPY to make an Aespa like group. The girls seem talented, but the song JPY gave them is awful.
