GIRL THEY DON'T HAVE A STORYLINE, THEY LITERALLY CREATED ANOTHER UNIVERSE (Loonaverse :3 ). It's probably the most complicated and intricated lore among all the kpop industry and orbits (fandom name) go crazy for it. It started in 2016 with the first solo song predebut by Heejin (they have one for each member, so 12 in total) and it's still going. They are also divided in 3 sub units by order of debut: Loona 1/3 consists in Heejin, Hyunjin, Haseul (leader of the group) and Vivi (the only foreign member, from Hong Kong); Odd Eye Circle consists in Kim Lip, Jinsoul and Choerry; yyxy consists in Yves, Chuu, Gowon and Olivia Hye. The only member who isn't in a sub unit is the maknae Yeojin cause she was too young to debut in a sub unit (14) but she obv has her solo song like all the other members
@@fukucrys6966 I think it's not a big deal bc I personally enjoy way more when reactors pay more attention to their music and choreography rather than just analyzing the storyline. I like the Loonaverse lore and the fact that some fans spent their time to understand it is cool, but I think that sometimes reactors try to understand the lore too hard and don't pay attention to the girls and their talent, the choreography or the song itself, so I liked that Caitlin's reaction was more in blind ^_^
Caitlynnnn you need to react to ARTMS and Loossemble, Loona had to disband and now members are in different groups except chuu and yves (they are solo) but ARTMS and Loossemble are both continuing the Loona storyline and their stories are matching each other’s
It makes me so sad to think that there’s ppl that could get to know Loona now and not get to chance to experience what we orbits experienced in the years they were together. I can’t believe it’s nearly unlikely that we’ll ever see our twelve girls even dance to these songs together again. That’s heartbreaking fr 😭
It’s not unlikely at all the girls constantly talk to each other and the companies are willing to work together. It’ll happen don’t count it out they are pushing for more Loona music as a group
@@Chellz801 The problem is for sure in a logistical sense. It’s not impossible, but definitely leaning more to unlikely than I would’ve hoped. Never say never, though :/
currently suppressing the urge to write a 10 page thesis in the comment section about the Loonaverse and recommend LOONA's entire discography and dance cover/practices 😅😅
Im watching ur reaction and they actually had a really unique predebut project! Each girl got a solo (and a bside) starting from October 2016 and even they had 3 subunits (3 albums and 2 repackages) that promoted before they all debuted as a group at August 2018! So since they were from an unknown company they had to make much noise to get attention from the public
"I need to hear what the b-side sounds like though." Oh, you're in for so much trouble. Their b-sides are GOLD. You definitely need to check out their b-sides on your own time, I genuinely think you'd love it! They have all kind of genres, so you have a lot to pick on. I enjoyed this video so much, thank you for checking them out. I'm glad you ended up liking them! Take your time in discovering them, because you're right they do have a LOT of songs. From their pre-debut solos to their pre-debut units to their other title. And yes, they do have a lore. We call it the LOONAVERSE, but you don't have to worry about it when you're not ready or interested yet. Just enjoy your time with their music! Thank you for this amazing reaction.
I literally clicked so fast and I'm still panicking. Hope u take a chance and react to their pre-debut cause everything is just so amazing when it comes to loona!
36:24 the one slaying the highnote in the back is actually one of the main rappers (they don't have official positions) Jinsoul, who is my ult btw😼, and it proves that Loona is literally a group full of aces and that's on PERIODT
But Jinsoul prefers singing to rapping and also acts like a lead vocalist. I agree that LOONA are aces, but it’s not like she’s genuinely a rapper first like Soyeon or Chaeyoung. She was made to rap by BBC; Jinsoul *studied* vocals.
@@julienneloreto8561 yes I know she prefers singing over rapping, it was just an example to show how much of an ace group Loona is. Since Caitlin asked who was hitting the highnote in the background I answered her and also added that Jinsoul is considered one of the main rappers (cause she raps in Satellite, Oops, Pose, SITR, Egoist...) but she's also a lead (if not main, I'm not an expert so I can't tell) vocalist material. Just for example, on Queendom she was in the vocal unit but in the finale she was one of the girls who was rapping (Hyeju, Sooyoung and Heejin, who are also lead vocalist material, esp the last two), so in conclusion Loona is def an ace group
@@julienneloreto8561 and Loona's rap line doesn't rap as much as Chae or Soyeon do and may not be as good as them (cause they obv trained to become rappers) but imo when they rap they literally slay
@@sarangfied even if the group doesn't have positions she's still considered one of the main rappers bc since debut she is probably the member who rapped the most and I know she prefers singing over rapping but the fact remains that she's still considered both rapper and vocalist
27:41 Girl IS there a story line? They have their own universe called Loonaverse and literally everything: MVs, choreo, lyrics etc play into it! And it started with their solos so to understand it you probably would have to watch all the MVs, look at all the lyrics, read all of the MV descriptions and watch all the teasers and 'unreleased' content since their predebut lmao.. but the best thing its all based on theories so theres not a fixed storyline! There are many theorists that make videos explaining either the MV's, members storyline or just explaining their general timeline of events
OMG IT'S HAPPENING! EVERYONE STAY F*CKING CALM! Man I was longing for this reaction. Damn it Caitlin, you are the best.I know I keep editing my comment but I'm losing my sh*t and I'm just about to start your reaction to favorite. *INTERNALLIY SCREAMING* I'm at 4:42 girl you are killing me 😂 5:03 I really need to stop now. But for real now, like an hour ago I came back from my four summer class (like the ones that you take to help you pass your high school finals and examinations to enter universities) and I was really tired but this is really lifting my spirit right now. Thank you Caitlin for always working hard to put out content ☺️❤️ Edit:I just finished the reaction and I enjoyed it so much what the heck? Honestly I would elavate if you ever brought loona on the channel, but I know how hectic it already is on here so please take your time and take care of yourself girl.
Loona is one very talented group. Their whole discography is so unique and just beautiful. On top of that they have some of the best choreographies in Kpop and are incredibly synchronised too. I hope you find some time to check out their dance practises and even some of their golden bsides. Oh and not to forgot they are absolutely hilarious and emit peak crackhead energy lmao
this video just made me realize how much i actually enjoy the loona title tracks. like they’re my ult group and ive listened to their songs so many times already but the music is just SO good
i love when people find out about LOONA for the first time and properly lose their minds as the reaction progresses 💀. that’s the power the moon girls possess 🥹
caitlin, i honestly think you should dedicate a whole first look season just for loona and listen to their entire discography, it is amazing and i promise you, you will not be disappointed!
caitlin if you ever choose to revisit loona i’ll literally cry. they are so so talented and their b-sides are fantastic. they did a TON of predebut stuff, each member got their own solo single and they broke into subunits and each subunit released an ep or two BEFORE the group debuted as twelve. that’s how each member was revealed to the public. they’re literally all strong solo artists that debuted as a group and the lore is extensive. they’re absolutely fantastic. ik ur swamped with stuff rn but if you do decide to bring loona onto the channel it might be the best day of my life. love you sm queen. have fun at all the concerts this summer!!
Loona are super well known for being one of the best girl groups in terms of dance and synchronization!! They also are pretty well known for their dance covers of boy groups! They have done incredible covers of bts fire, nct127 cherry bomb, and got7 eclipse!
Somehow I knew it wouldn't even phase you that this was such a large group😂. Based on watching your past videos of getting to know Seventeen and NCT I knew Loona was in good hands as far as not having to see someone completely overwhelmed the entire video by their numbers
LOONA is one of my favorite groups of all time. Their music is just so diverse and unique at the same time. They have some of the best bsides in kpop imo so their albums are worth a check. As others are saying in the comments,yes, LOONA has the most unique predebut project ever where each is revealed and debuted as sololists + 3 subunits of 3 to 5 members in the span of 18 months before their debut. They also have the LOONAVERSE which spans across over 30+ mvs starting from their predebut in 2016 till this day. I hope you deep dive into LOONA if you are interested enough!
crying bc you’ve fallen in love with the most complex gg in kpop when you’re telling yourself not to add anyone else😩 but honestly you won’t regret checking out loona. they have a TON of good music. their solo songs? bangers. their unit songs? bangers. their group songs? bangers. not a single skip in their discography. their lore is also the most fascinating lore in all of kpop like once you learn what it is you’re gonna watch the mvs again and go CRAZY
currently watching this reaction to feel happy again after the whole Loona situation 😭 her excitement watching loona mvs reminds of when I first got into loona,, this reaction is so comforting thank you Caitlin 🫶
after hearing ur ranking, you GOTTA watch loona’s performance of “pose” on queendom 😭 but its best not viewed at 2am when everyone can hear u scream 😭😭😭😭
I don't even stan loona but PTT is literally one the best kpop songs it's a masterpiece who even came up with this amazing song and the shenai and tabla was a cherry on top 🤧
On my humble opinion as an Orbit and a Carat, knowing how much you love Seventeen you will end up stanning Loona as well, they are both royalty when it comes to dance and song production. Thanks to react to our girls, kisses from Brazil
Omg Hi Caitlin, big fan. I'm about to watch this slayful reaction but first have you ever heard of a thing called the Loonaverse? It's the storyline behind Loona's music videos. It's totally not complicated to learn at all and only requires mild knowledge of astrophysics, chemistry, theology and colour theory. I have a powerpoint if you need it queen xoxo
Seeing first-time reactions to LOONA always makes me feel major feelings. Some fun facts and answers to questions you asked in the video (which you might know by now since this reaction is a few months old): Yes there's a storyline, LOONA has the most complex lore in the history of K-Pop, it's a trip, there's string theory and Orthodox theology and color theory and all kinds of stuff going on. All the weird stuff like the meteors and burning feathers and stuff, all the space/moon references, the missing shoe, all that is in the lore. The "fly like a butterfly" line in the drop in Butterfly: Hyunjin did that in one take, not even thinking it was the actual take, and G-High hit the talkback button and said "okay perfect." On "that sound" that's Monotree, mostly G-High. It changed after So What due to... reasons. Monotree have some awesome session review videos on their channel if you're curious and have time to kill. The major change in style from the first two to Why Not is because of those other reasons. Basically their shitty company didn't do anything for a long-ass time, and then decided to change everything to chase awards and CFs. It totally worked, and all us old Orbits eventually came around, but it was very jarring. (Also fun fact: the explosions in Why Not are not GCI, they fired explosives at Heejin and she was totally unfazed. Queens of not using green screens!) So What fun fact: the chorus choreo is so challenging that they did a TikTok challenge, but then did another "easy" version so fans could actually do it. So What also has the best bridge in the entire history of girl group songs (second best in K-Pop, because Exo's Tempo exists). PTT: remember the burning feather at the end of So What? The girl who had fire wings in PTT, that's related, she's the leader of the group and PTT was her first comeback after a long health hiatus. And the neon wings were actually on fire, they REALLY don't use CGI unless they absolutely have to.
Paint the town is just insanely good like it's so powerful and makes me feel so empowered it gave me chills listening to it again today with you! Love your reaction Caitlin literally so RELATABLE!
oh girl, I promise the last thing you’ll ever regret is listening to more loona, ESP their bsides. in fact, you’ll probably regret not having stanned them sooner. Hahah but whenever you do decide to really dive into their discography, you’re in for such a frickin treat. like I would do ANYTHING to relive discovering loona! Also yes, they have lore. Like A LOT of it but don’t be overwhelmed or discouraged. It’s so good too and really adds to the experience
이달의 소녀 also known as LOOΠΔ, 今月の少女, "Record-breaking girls", "Main Character", "Moon Girls", "Performance Masters", "Concept Masters", "Rise of the Dark Horse" and the list goes on....
Is it a story line? no. Is a motherf*ckin DIFFERENT UNNIVERSE, it’s called Loonaverse, i’ve been an orbit for 3 years and it still blows my mind. like EVERYTHING you see is there for a reason, i’ve never seen something like that in my whole life not in Kpop not in western music, it feels like a f*ckin movie
Butterfly will forever be my favourite LOONA song. One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard from a girl group. Never fails to make me feel emotional when I listen to it.
It really was Loona and Gfriend that dragged me into trying more ggs. So glad, you're checking them out and having your mind blown too! Paint the Town is a shortened version of "painting the town red" which is an old time-y phrase meaning, to go out on the town partying and letting loose.
You’ll be surprised how many orbits did not like So What, meanwhile I was just sitting there blasting the music. Lee Soo Man did co produce it so yeah it does have that classic SM bridge. It’s so good.
Watching the final thoughts part with a smile in my face because I know that even though you don’t do a reaction to their other songs now, you definitely will in the future just basing on how you loved all these songs. Loona’s discography is one of the best and diverse in K-Pop and I think you will thoroughly enjoy every song (especially the b-sides, in which the girls shine the most lol). Thank you for a great video as always, Caitlin! 💓
you should definitely watch all of their solos and subunit music videos! then after i also suggest watching hi high and hula hoop, and you can see references to the loonaverse lore all throughout the hula hoop mv!! im so glad youre enjoying loona!!
I SCREAMED THE SECOND I SAW THE NOTIFICATION . i love loona so much oh my god they have an amazing discography and a crazy, VERY complicated storyline . before debuting, each member was introduced for each month . they released solos and unit songs . i hope you react more to them :DD they are soo good
honestly what makes loona such a good group is how they basically never stick to one genre, they have one of the most diverse discographies i've ever heard. i loved your reaction, the way you react just comes off as very genuine
if you want to stan them watch Loona the avengers of Kpop, the video is old, but still it helps a lot with the debut and all that. Each member debuted with a solo song before they all debuted together as Loona. Really stan them you don’t know how many times i have cried because of how beautiful and meaningful the loonaverse is
I literally dont know where to start because there's just too many outstanding loona. I just hope she checks out the pre-debut project, the boy group dance covers (she'll love cherry bomb, fire and eclipse), the dance practices and probably the Avengers of Kpop video? I just hope we keep getting loona contents here. 😊 Maybe if she's more into it, then we can start talking about the lore and the loonaverse. Hopefully, the b-sides, the solos and the subunits would eventually come because that's where the treasure is hidden. 🤭
Their debut song as a whole group was "Hi High" and they have a lot of other great songs like "Universe", "Hula Hoop", "Star" & "Satellite". Not to mention their Sub-unit and solo songs. Their latest title track is "Flip That" but their finale song for Queendom 2 was "Pose". If you also like to see how great they are at dancing, you should check out their dance practice videos for their songs but especially their cover dances of boy group songs; "Fire" by BTS, "Cherry Bomb" by NCT 127 and "Eclipse" by Got7.
Thank you and a massive like to this your first reaction to LOONA. If you dig deeper into LOONA's music and intriguing lore you'll realize that BBC, a less than 20 people company, is really creative and that these girls don't play around. BTW, they don't have fixed positions because they can all master singing, rapping, harmonizing, dancing in insane sync, and more. LOONA is K-Pop's most awarded 4G "Girl Group" with the most extensive, diverse, and exciting gender-neutral discography and videography today. Stan LOONA
ACKKKK THIS IS FOR ME!!! contrary to popular belief you don't need to get into their lore/universe like, at all. i know it means a lot to most of the fans but enjoying the music alone is perfectly fine. i feel like you'll love their bsides too, if you ever get to them!
As somebody whose ult group is also NCT, Loona has been one of my fav ggs since before their debut. Their predebut solo songs are also all amazing quality and their b-sides are where some of the best gems are like with NCT. Also they have a cover of Cherry Bomb that went viral- (and got the Lee Sooman to work with them for So What and Why Not he was so impressed) I really hope you bring Loona to your channel again, especially trying to figure out the lore lol I felt so dang happy seeing this 🥰
Im very happy your reacting to LOOΠΔ the most unique KPOP group out there that deserved a lot more attention and recognition for their empowerment, enlightenment, and diversification in oneself. Their lore is the precipice of any universe that goes beyond the reach of assemblage. Granted we haven’t scratched the surface of grandeur- from their solo’s to their subunit’s that is predicated on the diversity in their music and intrinsically their own.
Butterfly is so iconic. It's one of the best thing that ever happened in kpop. Not only the song is so beautiful, but the choreography is incredibly impressive. The MV makes me quite emotional. It holds so much symbolism, diversity and power.
Thank you for checking them out Caitlyn. Tbh they don't just have mere storyline but a lore. Their own universe which is the loonaverse and if you dive deep into it, you'll find yourself diving into loona's individuals complex stories, how each choreo, lyrics, mv scenes, and colors are all connected.
Another day, another slay. The girls just keep slaying these youtubers without mercy. Caitlin, Loona deserves a series on its own. They have 48 MVs in total, of which 36 were pre-debut era.
After these I’m sure you would love to see Loona’s POSE Queendom performance!! And to see a different side of them Hi High, Star, and Flip That are good MVs to look at
Loona are the b-side queens for me, along with RV! So i definitely recommend checking out their albums, when you have the time and energy💕 You're in for a world of amazing music!
the fact that they're gonna be on tour in the US is insane. i'm so proud of them i wish i could experience them live too because i know their energy is insane.
THIS SEASON IS LITERALLY FOR ME
ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
SAMEEEE
SAMEEEE IM SO HAPPY AAAA
OMG SAME!!!
F SAME

Wasn’t there some theory that Yeojin is in 1/3?
@@sweetmimosamommysaranghae3163 yes, she's considered the "/" in Loona 1/3, but concretely she wasn't in any sub unit
I felt sorry for Caitlin to react to Loona without knowing about all the infomations T.T Anyways STAN LOONA

Caitlin: is it a storyline?
Me: girl, it's THE STORYLINE
Why Not and So What are both co-produced by Lee Soo Man, and you can easily tell the SMENT influence on those two songs.
it’s the ✨bridge✨
These songs made me stan Loona ! Everything make sense lmao since I love every SM songs
Why not is literally my favourite kpop song
i remember when why not came out, the outrage and love, an sment classic sign
oh yeah, their worst songs to date. SM knows how to kill competition
Caitlynnnn you need to react to ARTMS and Loossemble, Loona had to disband and now members are in different groups except chuu and yves (they are solo) but ARTMS and Loossemble are both continuing the Loona storyline and their stories are matching each other’s
"My wig is gone, she's no longer with us" it's a pretty good representation of our reactions every time they drop a bop
honestly the moment i realised they are PHENOMENAL dancers is the moment i saw that dance cover they did of cherry bomb. literally SO good.
Same! Honestly, I like watching their cover over NCT's. Lol...
Let's be honest, they did it better
@@SeulgiAbsFanclub Ikr! I was just being careful, cuz I didn't want to feel the wrath from the NCTzens.

The member you mentioned you liked is Kim Lip :) she has an amazing solo song called "Eclipse", you should check it out :)
i don’t even stan loona and yet i stand by the fact that so what has the best bridge in all of kpop
Loona is one very talented group. Their whole discography is so unique and just beautiful. On top of that they have some of the best choreographies in Kpop and are incredibly synchronised too.

I'm back here again after Caitlin said SHE HAS AN INTERVIEW WITH LOOSSEMBLE!!!
all 12 of them have such charming personalities, their variety show stuff are a treat to watch
Somehow I knew it wouldn't even phase you that this was such a large group😂. Based on watching your past videos of getting to know Seventeen and NCT I knew Loona was in good hands as far as not having to see someone completely overwhelmed the entire video by their numbers
First discovered Loona when they covered Cherry Bomb by NCT and now Paint the Town has me on chokehold.
LOONA is one of my favorite groups of all time. Their music is just so diverse and unique at the same time.
They have some of the best bsides in kpop imo so their albums are worth a check.
As others are saying in the comments,yes, LOONA has the most unique predebut project ever where each is revealed and debuted as sololists + 3 subunits of 3 to 5 members in the span of 18 months before their debut.
They also have the LOONAVERSE which spans across over 30+ mvs starting from their predebut in 2016 till this day.
I hope you deep dive into LOONA if you are interested enough!
crying bc you’ve fallen in love with the most complex gg in kpop when you’re telling yourself not to add anyone else😩 but honestly you won’t regret checking out loona. they have a TON of good music. their solo songs? bangers. their unit songs? bangers. their group songs? bangers. not a single skip in their discography. their lore is also the most fascinating lore in all of kpop like once you learn what it is you’re gonna watch the mvs again and go CRAZY
currently watching this reaction to feel happy again after the whole Loona situation 😭 her excitement watching loona mvs reminds of when I first got into loona,, this reaction is so comforting thank you Caitlin 🫶
after hearing ur ranking, you GOTTA watch loona’s performance of “pose” on queendom 😭 but its best not viewed at 2am when everyone can hear u scream 😭😭😭😭
I don't even stan loona but PTT is literally one the best kpop songs it's a masterpiece who even came up with this amazing song and the shenai and tabla was a cherry on top 🤧
I really wish she react to them again 😭👍
On my humble opinion as an Orbit and a Carat, knowing how much you love Seventeen you will end up stanning Loona as well, they are both royalty when it comes to dance and song production.
Thanks to react to our girls, kisses from Brazil
i hope u can keep reacting to the loona memebers' new groups (loossemble, artms, chuu, and yves soon!)
Loona is literally the avengers of kpop
Omg Hi Caitlin, big fan. I'm about to watch this slayful reaction but first have you ever heard of a thing called the Loonaverse? It's the storyline behind Loona's music videos. It's totally not complicated to learn at all and only requires mild knowledge of astrophysics, chemistry, theology and colour theory. I have a powerpoint if you need it queen xoxo
Did you post your power point somewhere?
do you have the ppt link?
Ngl didn’t expect this much interest, I’ll try and get it posted online soon! I only have shown friends
Oh slay pls post a link on ur yt page or something!
pls update us when you'll post the ppt!!
Seeing first-time reactions to LOONA always makes me feel major feelings. Some fun facts and answers to questions you asked in the video (which you might know by now since this reaction is a few months old):
Yes there's a storyline, LOONA has the most complex lore in the history of K-Pop, it's a trip, there's string theory and Orthodox theology and color theory and all kinds of stuff going on. All the weird stuff like the meteors and burning feathers and stuff, all the space/moon references, the missing shoe, all that is in the lore.
The "fly like a butterfly" line in the drop in Butterfly: Hyunjin did that in one take, not even thinking it was the actual take, and G-High hit the talkback button and said "okay perfect."
On "that sound" that's Monotree, mostly G-High. It changed after So What due to... reasons. Monotree have some awesome session review videos on their channel if you're curious and have time to kill.
The major change in style from the first two to Why Not is because of those other reasons. Basically their shitty company didn't do anything for a long-ass time, and then decided to change everything to chase awards and CFs. It totally worked, and all us old Orbits eventually came around, but it was very jarring. (Also fun fact: the explosions in Why Not are not GCI, they fired explosives at Heejin and she was totally unfazed. Queens of not using green screens!)
So What fun fact: the chorus choreo is so challenging that they did a TikTok challenge, but then did another "easy" version so fans could actually do it. So What also has the best bridge in the entire history of girl group songs (second best in K-Pop, because Exo's Tempo exists).
PTT: remember the burning feather at the end of So What? The girl who had fire wings in PTT, that's related, she's the leader of the group and PTT was her first comeback after a long health hiatus. And the neon wings were actually on fire, they REALLY don't use CGI unless they absolutely have to.
peryat! queen lip legit flew in why not
Paint the town is just insanely good like it's so powerful and makes me feel so empowered it gave me chills listening to it again today with you! Love your reaction Caitlin literally so RELATABLE!
oh girl, I promise the last thing you’ll ever regret is listening to more loona, ESP their bsides. in fact, you’ll probably regret not having stanned them sooner. Hahah but whenever you do decide to really dive into their discography, you’re in for such a frickin treat. like I would do ANYTHING to relive discovering loona! Also yes, they have lore. Like A LOT of it but don’t be overwhelmed or discouraged. It’s so good too and really adds to the experience
이달의 소녀 also known as LOOΠΔ, 今月の少女, "Record-breaking girls", "Main Character", "Moon Girls", "Performance Masters", "Concept Masters", "Rise of the Dark Horse" and the list goes on....
this is the best First Look Season, hands down 🗣😭 Chungha! EverGlow! Now Loona! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 thanks Caitlin
Is it a story line? no. Is a motherf*ckin DIFFERENT UNNIVERSE, it’s called Loonaverse, i’ve been an orbit for 3 years and it still blows my mind. like EVERYTHING you see is there for a reason, i’ve never seen something like that in my whole life not in Kpop not in western music, it feels like a f*ckin movie
I'm missing the moon girls and I'm so happy to watch your reaction! The way you were panting and tired after ptt was very sweet and funny 🩷
Butterfly will forever be my favourite LOONA song. One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard from a girl group. Never fails to make me feel emotional when I listen to it.
Such innocence when Caitlin says "Is there a storyline?" oh darling you gotta a big storm coming
It really was Loona and Gfriend that dragged me into trying more ggs. So glad, you're checking them out and having your mind blown too!
Paint the Town is a shortened version of "painting the town red" which is an old time-y phrase meaning, to go out on the town partying and letting loose.
You’ll be surprised how many orbits did not like So What, meanwhile I was just sitting there blasting the music. Lee Soo Man did co produce it so yeah it does have that classic SM bridge. It’s so good.
I love that song it made me Stan them😭
I don't like the song because Vivi has 1 second of line, but otherwise I like the music 😭
Your reaction with PTT is sooo relatable 😂😂😂
Watching the final thoughts part with a smile in my face because I know that even though you don’t do a reaction to their other songs now, you definitely will in the future just basing on how you loved all these songs. Loona’s discography is one of the best and diverse in K-Pop and I think you will thoroughly enjoy every song (especially the b-sides, in which the girls shine the most lol). Thank you for a great video as always, Caitlin! 💓
when you say that they can dance, THEY CAN REALLY DANCE DANCE LIKE EVERYWAY YOU CAN IMAGINE. elegantly, powerful, cute yes they can
Yeah the first chorus drop in PTT is just...INSANE
Okay but the second chorus when Yves comes in a couple beats earlier than the rest....
All the choruses destroyyyyy
you should definitely watch all of their solos and subunit music videos! then after i also suggest watching hi high and hula hoop, and you can see references to the loonaverse lore all throughout the hula hoop mv!! im so glad youre enjoying loona!!
I FREAKING MISS THEM. IMMA CRY
Don’t be afraid of Loona because you’re making the right choice !!!!
I SCREAMED THE SECOND I SAW THE NOTIFICATION . i love loona so much oh my god they have an amazing discography and a crazy, VERY complicated storyline . before debuting, each member was introduced for each month . they released solos and unit songs . i hope you react more to them :DD they are soo good
honestly what makes loona such a good group is how they basically never stick to one genre, they have one of the most diverse discographies i've ever heard. i loved your reaction, the way you react just comes off as very genuine
if you want to stan them watch Loona the avengers of Kpop, the video is old, but still it helps a lot with the debut and all that. Each member debuted with a solo song before they all debuted together as Loona. Really stan them you don’t know how many times i have cried because of how beautiful and meaningful the loonaverse is
I would pay to watch Caitlin react to the predebuts and Loonaverse. Like PAYYYYYY lmao. its so immersive!
I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS GROUP AND TO SEE HOW YOU LIKED THEM !!!
will watch this the SECOND I get home ❤️🔥
this reaction made me laugh so much i love this 😭
I literally dont know where to start because there's just too many outstanding loona. I just hope she checks out the pre-debut project, the boy group dance covers (she'll love cherry bomb, fire and eclipse), the dance practices and probably the Avengers of Kpop video? I just hope we keep getting loona contents here. 😊 Maybe if she's more into it, then we can start talking about the lore and the loonaverse. Hopefully, the b-sides, the solos and the subunits would eventually come because that's where the treasure is hidden. 🤭
yes yes yes a million times yes
when u free time, just go check their solo, sub unit or bside. loona got god tier discography
thanks for listen to LOONA.... hope you continue with this journey!!!!
I know, the feeling is "no one makes IT like loona" lmaooo
predebut loona is EVERYTHING the solos and subunits are still my favorite songs in their discography. i hope you can check them out one day
Every songs of Loona has a storyline called Loonaverse (Loona+Universe).
You need to do a Loona marathon to understand everything 😂
LOONAAAAAAA YES!!!! Our queen's 😭❤️ Is a iconic GROUP👑
I know you said you're just briefly checking them out... but... Loona's pre-debut project is insane. Please watch at least some of those MVs.
"is there a storyline?" girl you are not even ready
also i'm so glad u did loona for this series 😭😭🙏
Their debut song as a whole group was "Hi High" and they have a lot of other great songs like "Universe", "Hula Hoop", "Star" & "Satellite". Not to mention their Sub-unit and solo songs. Their latest title track is "Flip That" but their finale song for Queendom 2 was "Pose". If you also like to see how great they are at dancing, you should check out their dance practice videos for their songs but especially their cover dances of boy group songs; "Fire" by BTS, "Cherry Bomb" by NCT 127 and "Eclipse" by Got7.
Thank you and a massive like to this your first reaction to LOONA.
If you dig deeper into LOONA's music and intriguing lore you'll realize that BBC, a less than 20 people company, is really creative and that these girls don't play around.
BTW, they don't have fixed positions because they can all master singing, rapping, harmonizing, dancing in insane sync, and more.
LOONA is K-Pop's most awarded 4G "Girl Group" with the most extensive, diverse, and exciting gender-neutral discography and videography today.
Stan LOONA
ACKKKK THIS IS FOR ME!!!
contrary to popular belief you don't need to get into their lore/universe like, at all. i know it means a lot to most of the fans but enjoying the music alone is perfectly fine. i feel like you'll love their bsides too, if you ever get to them!
As somebody whose ult group is also NCT, Loona has been one of my fav ggs since before their debut.
Their predebut solo songs are also all amazing quality and their b-sides are where some of the best gems are like with NCT.
Also they have a cover of Cherry Bomb that went viral- (and got the Lee Sooman to work with them for So What and Why Not he was so impressed)
I really hope you bring Loona to your channel again, especially trying to figure out the lore lol
I felt so dang happy seeing this 🥰
Im very happy your reacting to LOOΠΔ the most unique KPOP group out there that deserved a lot more attention and recognition for their empowerment, enlightenment, and diversification in oneself. Their lore is the precipice of any universe that goes beyond the reach of assemblage. Granted we haven’t scratched the surface of grandeur- from their solo’s to their subunit’s that is predicated on the diversity in their music and intrinsically their own.
you NEED to react to their solos and the sub-units!!!
It's understandable why you cant put words on what their sound really is. It's so unique that I just call it LOONA sound. XD
Loona switching genres like ➡️↘️⬇️↙️⬅️↖️⬆️↗️
Butterfly is so iconic. It's one of the best thing that ever happened in kpop. Not only the song is so beautiful, but the choreography is incredibly impressive. The MV makes me quite emotional. It holds so much symbolism, diversity and power.
I agree 100%
Thank you for checking them out Caitlyn. Tbh they don't just have mere storyline but a lore. Their own universe which is the loonaverse and if you dive deep into it, you'll find yourself diving into loona's individuals complex stories, how each choreo, lyrics, mv scenes, and colors are all connected.
Another day, another slay. The girls just keep slaying these youtubers without mercy.
Caitlin, Loona deserves a series on its own. They have 48 MVs in total, of which 36 were pre-debut era.
I will never tire of listening to Butterfly. Also their b-side Stylish
After these I’m sure you would love to see Loona’s POSE Queendom performance!! And to see a different side of them Hi High, Star, and Flip That are good MVs to look at
Loona are the b-side queens for me, along with RV! So i definitely recommend checking out their albums, when you have the time and energy💕 You're in for a world of amazing music!
the fact that they're gonna be on tour in the US is insane. i'm so proud of them i wish i could experience them live too because i know their energy is insane.
LOONA’s predebut solo/subunit songs are amazing as well. So many different genres
