dreamcatcher the QUEENS of hard rock/metal in kpop, nobody else
Facts
Fix no debate
Ong
not trying to sound like a metal elitist but they’re not metal. Sometimes you can barely hear the guitars lol
@@dangerof_living7452 listen to Endless Night & No More, then get back to me
Officially the song unravels a story of an obsession and longing for love. The capitalise BE in the title is supposed to a sound like a Chinese word meaning sorrow, and the title BEcause could be loosely translate as the cause of sorrow, and paired with the line BEcause I like you or BEcause I love you, the sorrow is caused by liking or loving someone. Also, the whole creepy toxic vibe is link to the cherography where there is a scene of someone choking another, and the lyrics about "forever mine, even your breath" and then your face blue... is like an ocean view (i.e. face turning blue due to lack of breathe) etc.
Also, the MV plot theme has another layer that borrowed quite a bit of plot elements from the horror movie "Us" by Jordan Peele where doppelgangers who were forced to live underground depraved of the "finer" things and are trying to are trying to take over their "privileged" above ground counterparts...won't go into much details as it would be better if you watch the movie yourself if you haven't). There are a lot of details in the MV that point to this such as the movie "Us" has a hall of mirror, someone being captured and replaced, the carnival, the doppelgangers holding hand like in the choreography, the slight head bob, the two hand on the face, mirrored choreography etc., along with easter eggs that shows such as the MV is 3:13 minute long (coincidence? I think not) , and that the opening scene and ending scene has the members in completely different outfits (with the ending otufit more whimsical), as well as the completely drain symmetrical hourglass at the end indicating that at some point, the doppelgangers replaced their original counterpart.
More impressively, musicality, it plays into the theme of opposite doppelgangers where there is a two part chorus (whimsical and cute, and a more rock follow up) and two part bridge (slow singing and followed up by a low rap with atmospherically vocals behind) trying to show this mirror duality.
Just an edit, ‘悲’ (‘BE’) is actually used in context as the Hanja character, not the Chinese character. The pinyin for the Chinese character is ‘bēi’ (kinda pronounced like “bae”), whereas in Korea, the Hanja character is ‘be’ (pronounced exactly like “bee”). These variations are prevalent across all geographical locations that speak/once spoke, Traditional or Standard Chinese, as well as Cantonese. I hope I didn’t misspeak :)
@@user-dg3ug7ny5d Actually, that make more sense compared to what someone told me that it is based off a chinese character which i thought it sound more like Bae as well.
@@loreleileong4071 DCC really went in with all of the symbolism this time. I’ve also seen theories(?) that ‘BE’ relates to the Korean word ‘피’ (‘pi’), which means “blood”, as it has a similar pronounciation (kinda like a homophone).
Like you said with SuA’s implied line about strangulation, as well as Siyeon’s line about even breath belonging to her as the “evil” doppelgänger, they both relate to the loss, or cease, of pumping blood around the body.
Blood is also known as the “eternal life force” or “soul” of cognitive humans, and this may also mean that the actions of the “evil” doppelgängers are driven by an obsession to look and feel as realistic as their human counterparts.
Not to forget, the mirrored chorus dance shows both sets of doppelgängers dressed in either blue or red outfits, which may represent the deoxygenated and oxygenated blood, respectively. JiU herself also mentioned her being like a vampire in the group scene “underground” at the end, with Gahyeon on the throne.
Again, there are so many layers to this mv and I simply love the amount of interpretations that are arising.
@@user-dg3ug7ny5d Agreed, they seem to be upping their game this time round plus I am a fan of Jordan Peele's movies in general so it is nice to try to find all the various references within as well.
If you look up killing verse in the dictionary you will find Dami I swear.
I can confirm. That is exactly what happened when I looked it up. lol
He just went bobbleheadeded for Dami there.
THEY WENT OFF!!! DREAMCATCHER NEVER DISAPPOINTS
The light stick behind is really look like an honoured sword that was awarded by the Queen.Look really cool man.
OMG "Hitcatcher" I love it! This is such a good comeback, you can tell they loved the concepts and had fun filming. This to me harkens back beautifully to their earlier music, like a grown up, expensive version of Goodnight. The rest of the EP really feels like a summer vacation, and a (less creepy) summer romance.
Well, well, well. Hi there! Dreamcatcher are outdoing themselves here once again. Musically, the song is a fantastic journey. There actually are "cute" parts, but there also are parts where the guitars go full metal. The variations in BEcause remind me of their previous masterpiece, Deja Vu. The bridge with SuA's slow rap and Yoohyeon's adlibs is possibly the most beautiful one they have ever done.
About the meaning: According to Dami, BEcause is about love becoming obsession. And also, this is a stand-alone story. They go back to their horror roots, which I really enjoy. One commenter noted that if you look at "BE" as a written Chinese character "悲“, that would mean "sadness". So the song title would mean "The Cause of Sadness". And that would make the lyric "because I like you" to maybe mean "the cause of sadness is I like you". That commenter is Jad Hamizan and he deserves all the credit for noticing that.
The video picks up on that. JiU seems to be the puppet master here (or her doppelganger!). She is the one trapping the other members and turning them into puppets, but Gahyeon tries to escape (as you can see by her throwing off the cage right in the beginning). It seems JiU catches her again though, "because she likes her". And I didn't even touch on the references to the movie "Us" yet, there is so much going on. The lyrics are even creepier. SuA sings: "Your expression is blue, blue. Your face is like ocean view.", hinting at strangulation due to the one being obsessed taking things way, way too far. Dreamcatcher are clearly not afraid to tackle the difficult subjects, and they do it masterfully here - again. For me, this is more than just pop, it is art.
this song has been on repeat 😩🙏
DREAMCATCHER BEcause:
So, if "BE" is the Hanja character that means "sadness", and we consider "cause" as a noun, that would make the meaning of this song's title as "The Cause of Sadness". And that would make the lyric "because I like you" to loosely mean "the cause of sadness is I like you". That's very deep & profound.
“Smile when you see me, smile at me / It’s just the two of us in this dark room / If you play with me today / I’ll give you something sweeter tomorrow,” Gahyeon and Yoohyeon sing on the pre-chorus.
Btw the one who laughed at the end is Gahyeon so we see that Gahyeon is the main character.
+ they representing dolls and doppelganger (mirroring each other)
And if you see the full performance/choreo you see Sua has the strings and controls the members (puppets/dolls)
Also the Hotel remains me of the Kdrama Hotel the Luna and the Hotel belongs to Jiu.
__________________
Gahyeon is the evil side of Jiu (doppelganger) , cuz in the beginning Jiu is like looking at the mirror and there’s Gahyeon infront of her ( her reflection ) then Gahyeon tries to choke her. And also at Sua’s part near the end when Sua gives herself an apple ( which I think is poisoned ).
they mentioned the MV was inspired by the movie (US) which has evil doppelgangers. I also see a lot of alice in wonderland references which leads me to believe the song is not about physical doppelgangers but ones of different personalities - alice undergoes somewhat of an identity crisis and there are many split personalities in the story. although most of the lyrics can be read as obsessive love, the start of the bridge which often reveals the real intent goes "It’s fine even if you refuse me, another voice of mine". in this light it could be about one's internal struggle for control, perhaps between the good side and the evil side.
one imagery to support this is sua giving herself an apple through a broken mirror. mirrors in past dc mvs show reflections but the dark side. thus this scene suggest ones dark voice is trying to tempt or poison you, depending on which metaphorical reference you want to use with the apple. there is also a short screech sound during dami's rap, taken from the movie psycho which highlights multiple personality disorder. so some of the lyrics which seem psychotic like "face turning blue, like an ocean view" might be representing one side trying to kill the other for control.
Dreamcatcher is top female band. I live their style i have since the beginning. Siyeon and Gahyeon phenomenal.
YES.
They really said this is our concept and we do it the best 👏🏼
*the bsides are amazing too especially Whistle and Alldaylong* 🔥🔥🤘
Dreamcatcher's sound is the definition of Fusion Master. You can tell a DC song from a mile away.
Whistle is also straight fire off the album imo.
Yeah, I also shake my head like that😂 that drum and Dami's rapping went crazy😂
Ot7 here as well. Apparently I like having my heart pulled in 7 different directions.
Some people like to tell me that I took the easy way out. I don't have to choose. Me? I don't have a choice. I CAN'T choose. Like picking my favorite oxygen to breathe.
It's absolutely brutal. Easy? We chose the more difficult path.
I really appreciate y'all for planning to buy the physical album! Thankyou
Shout out to Dreamcatcher.
Can we really just go back to Gahyeon. Until now I though her best song was BOCA but this, hands down, is the new Gahyeon hit.
Can we also talk about how they went from the cute homemade vid for Sahara to this. Pure power.
watch the M2 relay dance of BEcause to see the goddess Yoohyeon steal the show and break rewind buttons,
afterwards don't watch their relay dance cover of ABRACADABRA (Brown Eyed Girls song), you're not ready...
Thank you for the daily reminder to give myself a heart attack from that cover. It’s still the most watched relay cover, with something like 3.2M views. They really broke us all, and now we’re addicted to even function throughout the day!
our ladies did not come to play this comeback 🥴 i can’t tell y’all how many times i’ve listened to it or watched the video at this point hahaha
Best title track since Scream!
Nice reaction. OMG !!! BEcause ! What a great and amazing song by Dreamcatcher ! The best song and album (BEcause, Whistle, Alldaylong) of the year 2021?! As always, Dreamcatcher is Dreamcatcher.
