[00:14.000 --> 00:23.000] Here on CCTV, Chantal and I have the Inside Scoop with extensive experience performing on stage and working at record labels. [00:23.000 --> 00:33.000] You can join us in our in-depth conversations about global pop music on patreon at patreon.com slash CCTV pops and become a part of our awesome crew, [00:33.000 --> 00:36.000] which includes Lily, Louie, Emily and Juliet. [00:37.000 --> 00:45.000] Yes, yes, yes. And we put up a poll on all of our socials, Twitter and YouTube, as CCTV Pops, and you all voted for three of k-pop's [00:45.000 --> 00:55.000] biggest releases of January 2024 to brrrrrr in our pop-off segment, where we will discuss a compare the songs, videos and performances and everything in between. [00:55.000 --> 00:58.000] And this is meant for pure fun. So don't take us seriously. [00:58.000 --> 01:02.000] Grrr, join us and let us know what wins for you in the comments. [01:02.000 --> 01:10.000] And this month you voted for B1A4's Rewind, G-Idols, Superlady and SF9's Bebora. [01:10.000 --> 01:16.000] And I have to say, there were a lot of close votes, and Mix's Dash was so close. [01:16.000 --> 01:23.000] Yeah, G-Idols beat them out by very little. And B1A4 came out of nowhere, so the B1A4 fans, like, [01:23.000 --> 01:29.000] the last couple hours of the poll, you guys shot up a couple hundred bats there. [01:29.000 --> 01:35.000] Yeah. But yes, we will react to End Mix's Dash. It sees is untouchable. [01:35.000 --> 01:40.000] Yeah. And there's one more that we'll react to in our special bonus episode. [01:40.000 --> 01:44.000] So definitely check that out if you're a Patreon or Spotify subscriber. [01:44.000 --> 01:48.000] Because it is, usually. All right, so let's get ready. [01:49.000 --> 01:51.000] Round one. [01:54.000 --> 02:00.000] All right, we have Player One, B1A4, B-LASA, with Rewind. [02:00.000 --> 02:04.000] And it was done by Senu, R-O-M-N-E, Han Suu. [02:04.000 --> 02:06.000] Player One. [02:06.000 --> 02:12.000] So the first round is all about song itself, so the production, the melody, the vocals. [02:12.000 --> 02:16.000] So I don't know much about B1A4 to be very honest. [02:16.000 --> 02:20.000] I kind of know the title tracks, but I wasn't ever a huge fan back in the day. [02:20.000 --> 02:25.000] So I had really no expectations going into this, but I was very pleasantly surprised. [02:25.000 --> 02:28.000] Like, I think the production is really nice. It's very me. [02:28.000 --> 02:33.000] You know, it's very kind of like Bruno Mars-esque, funky 90s, you know? [02:33.000 --> 02:35.000] Which I always love that. [02:35.000 --> 02:41.000] And just listening to the vocals, it is really funny because you can't tell they're an older K-pop group. [02:41.000 --> 02:45.000] You know, it's just a very different style of singing. [02:45.000 --> 02:49.000] Like, the whole execution is much more loose, more soulful. [02:49.000 --> 02:52.000] You can talk about soul quite a lot in the K-pop reviews. [02:52.000 --> 02:55.000] And it's very effortless soul in their case. [02:55.000 --> 02:56.000] Right. [02:56.000 --> 03:00.000] And there's some really nice vocal tones there. It's all very soft. [03:00.000 --> 03:02.000] Again, it just feels very relaxed. [03:02.000 --> 03:04.000] Some nice harmonies in there too. [03:04.000 --> 03:05.000] Yeah. [03:05.000 --> 03:08.000] Yeah, I think it's good. I think it's catchy, though. [03:08.000 --> 03:12.000] Rewind, rewind, and a little chanting moment. It's fun. [03:12.000 --> 03:13.000] Yeah. [03:13.000 --> 03:17.000] And the bridge helps really kind of keep it interesting as well. [03:17.000 --> 03:18.000] Yeah. [03:18.000 --> 03:21.000] Because I do wish the final chorus had a bit more of a climax. [03:21.000 --> 03:25.000] Like, maybe you needed a key change. You know, if you're going to go 90s, give it a key change. [03:25.000 --> 03:26.000] Yeah. [03:26.000 --> 03:28.000] Or just needed something because there were some ad libs and stuff. [03:28.000 --> 03:30.000] But it wasn't like a... [03:30.000 --> 03:31.000] Take us home. [03:31.000 --> 03:32.000] Yeah. [03:32.000 --> 03:33.000] Yeah. [03:33.000 --> 03:34.000] That's valid, but I enjoy it. [03:34.000 --> 03:35.000] Overall. [03:35.000 --> 03:36.000] Yeah, what do you think? [03:36.000 --> 03:37.000] I think I had similar ideas. [03:37.000 --> 03:40.000] You know, the New Jack Swing group is always welcome. [03:40.000 --> 03:45.000] And I would say that with the singles, they've never really gone for a retro sound per se. [03:45.000 --> 03:47.000] They were very much... [03:47.000 --> 03:50.000] K-pop was what it was for a little while before it got... [03:50.000 --> 03:53.000] People say it's too western, but it was a lot of... [03:53.000 --> 03:54.000] I want to say it's smaller. [03:54.000 --> 03:58.000] We had kind of smaller companies who couldn't afford to outsource too much. [03:58.000 --> 04:01.000] They were using in-home producers and they were like, bam, that's what we got. [04:01.000 --> 04:03.000] So they sound like Super K-pop back in the day. [04:03.000 --> 04:07.000] So, I mean, this is a safe route, I think, in terms of using retro. [04:07.000 --> 04:13.000] Like I said, it is welcome, but I do wish they would have had like a melodic hook in terms of like certain verse parts. [04:13.000 --> 04:16.000] Or like a catchphrase to latch on to. [04:16.000 --> 04:18.000] Like in their song, what's happening? [04:18.000 --> 04:20.000] There's like a go-to mod part. [04:20.000 --> 04:21.000] Like everyone... [04:21.000 --> 04:22.000] Like all the little fans know it. [04:22.000 --> 04:23.000] Or like, you know that part. [04:23.000 --> 04:26.000] Like, when Borrow was still in the group and Jin Young were in the group. [04:26.000 --> 04:27.000] I think there was moments there. [04:27.000 --> 04:31.000] I will say though, I think because some of the members did contribute to the writing, [04:31.000 --> 04:33.000] it maintained the group's waste. [04:33.000 --> 04:35.000] Like the chanting, they do that. [04:35.000 --> 04:36.000] They've done that. [04:37.000 --> 04:39.000] The singing was, like you said, really nice. [04:39.000 --> 04:42.000] And I do appreciate how well it was mixed. [04:42.000 --> 04:43.000] Because sometimes you'll get something. [04:43.000 --> 04:45.000] It's just like Lord Mary Joseph in the land. [04:45.000 --> 04:46.000] Here's the tuning. [04:46.000 --> 04:47.000] Oh my gosh. [04:47.000 --> 04:53.000] I also like that the shouting wasn't really like too forward in the mix to that matters. [04:53.000 --> 04:55.000] Because then after a while, I'm like, take my headphones off. [04:55.000 --> 04:59.000] But yeah, even without the other two members, I feel like it was still B1A4. [04:59.000 --> 05:04.000] But like kind of sliding there, kind of like, hey guys, we're kind of back. [05:04.000 --> 05:05.000] Let's see. [05:05.000 --> 05:06.000] Like a tester. [05:06.000 --> 05:07.000] That was just like a gift to the fans. [05:07.000 --> 05:08.000] I'm not sure. [05:08.000 --> 05:09.000] I'm not sure about the full scope of it. [05:09.000 --> 05:12.000] So B1A4 fans, please let me know. [05:12.000 --> 05:13.000] I love the braids. [05:13.000 --> 05:18.000] Like you said, Senu was my favorite one because he looks like a rabbit. [05:18.000 --> 05:21.000] But I like his part because his tall side on that part does something for me. [05:21.000 --> 05:26.000] But there's already super romantic and that bridge part is really like so sweet because [05:26.000 --> 05:29.000] it's about seeing someone in the dream and like holding on to them. [05:29.000 --> 05:32.000] And yeah, the whole sentiment there drives it home. [05:32.000 --> 05:35.000] But like you said, the ending just just kind of plateaus. [05:35.000 --> 05:36.000] Yeah. [05:36.000 --> 05:37.000] Yeah. [05:37.000 --> 05:38.000] But that's about it though. [05:38.000 --> 05:39.000] Pretty good overall though. [05:39.000 --> 05:40.000] Nice. [05:40.000 --> 05:41.000] Okay. [05:41.000 --> 05:46.000] So moving on to player two, we have G idol with super lady. [05:46.000 --> 05:48.000] Player two. [05:48.000 --> 05:54.000] So this one was done by member John Soyon and pop time daily and likey. [05:54.000 --> 05:57.000] The usual suspects for this one. [05:57.000 --> 05:58.000] Yes. [05:59.000 --> 06:00.000] Yeah. [06:00.000 --> 06:01.000] Yeah. [06:01.000 --> 06:02.000] I mean, I'm sorry. [06:02.000 --> 06:08.000] I realized that I don't know because of Soyon, they have a voice that is very much like I'm [06:08.000 --> 06:09.000] that. [06:09.000 --> 06:10.000] Yes. [06:10.000 --> 06:13.000] And I do appreciate it. [06:13.000 --> 06:18.000] I think this song is a fun direction in terms of like different concept. [06:18.000 --> 06:21.000] Like queen cars was them like playing around. [06:21.000 --> 06:24.000] But this was them like kind of like stop in their heels a little bit. [06:24.000 --> 06:25.000] I appreciate it. [06:26.000 --> 06:28.000] They weren't doing too much of a girl. [06:28.000 --> 06:30.000] Car salad for me is how to like end of time. [06:30.000 --> 06:35.000] Think about that bass line was going to be interesting. [06:35.000 --> 06:36.000] I just keep singing Beyonce. [06:36.000 --> 06:39.000] Either way, Beyonce during the four era meets T.R. [06:39.000 --> 06:41.000] with sugar feet. [06:41.000 --> 06:42.000] Yeah. [06:42.000 --> 06:46.000] The intro with Soyon belting her little face off. [06:46.000 --> 06:49.000] That's the part where I was like, is this the hook? [06:49.000 --> 06:52.000] Because remember with my knee, we thought we did it. [06:52.000 --> 06:54.000] Unfortunately, it would bite me. [06:54.000 --> 06:56.000] And I was like, I don't want to hear it again. [06:56.000 --> 06:57.000] I know I thought it was the chorus. [06:57.000 --> 06:58.000] Yeah. [06:58.000 --> 07:04.000] I was hoping that it wouldn't be because that intro goes off because the chorus is or whatever. [07:04.000 --> 07:10.000] But it kind of when it gets to that point of the song kind of falls by the wayside lady. [07:10.000 --> 07:15.000] Lady like, oh, it kind of just doesn't do much for me. [07:15.000 --> 07:20.000] And I like the militant sound of it of the whole song with the drums and then the runway kind [07:20.000 --> 07:22.000] of like switch up in the chorus. [07:22.000 --> 07:23.000] Yeah. [07:23.000 --> 07:28.000] But then the vocal production, the vocal delivery is just underwhelming. [07:28.000 --> 07:29.000] The lady. [07:29.000 --> 07:30.000] Come on, ladies. [07:30.000 --> 07:31.000] That's it. [07:31.000 --> 07:32.000] Dang it. [07:32.000 --> 07:34.000] You know, there wasn't anything else. [07:34.000 --> 07:35.000] The lyrics are super defiant. [07:35.000 --> 07:36.000] I really appreciate that. [07:36.000 --> 07:39.000] The girls, again, are very believable. [07:39.000 --> 07:41.000] And I guess that's because they've been around for a little while. [07:41.000 --> 07:44.000] They were kind of like third gen cusp, fourth gen. [07:44.000 --> 07:46.000] So they have a little bit of that. [07:47.000 --> 07:48.000] Stuff that we like. [07:48.000 --> 07:49.000] And I can hear it in their voice. [07:49.000 --> 07:53.000] It didn't sound too like forced, even with shoe house partners on force. [07:53.000 --> 08:01.000] And as for the English lyrics, at this point, at this point, we all know like, she's going [08:01.000 --> 08:03.000] to like not have the sets English. [08:03.000 --> 08:04.000] But I'm not going to hold you. [08:04.000 --> 08:05.000] I like that. [08:05.000 --> 08:07.000] Cause I got a super. [08:07.000 --> 08:09.000] And then the super niche. [08:09.000 --> 08:10.000] We, we, I like the super natch. [08:11.000 --> 08:12.000] Like honey is super natch. [08:12.000 --> 08:16.000] But we say we say people, annoying people say saws and resi and all this other crap. [08:16.000 --> 08:17.000] So you know what? [08:17.000 --> 08:18.000] Let's just get over at this point. [08:18.000 --> 08:19.000] Like she's got it. [08:19.000 --> 08:20.000] It wasn't too bad though. [08:20.000 --> 08:22.000] I would say, you know, that's some other stuff. [08:22.000 --> 08:23.000] Yeah. [08:23.000 --> 08:24.000] They've done worse. [08:24.000 --> 08:25.000] Just the one thing. [08:25.000 --> 08:26.000] But it's hot. [08:26.000 --> 08:27.000] You know. [08:27.000 --> 08:28.000] Yeah. [08:28.000 --> 08:29.000] It's one of those songs. [08:29.000 --> 08:30.000] Yeah. [08:30.000 --> 08:31.000] The intro. [08:31.000 --> 08:32.000] Oh, it started off so strong. [08:32.000 --> 08:33.000] And I was like, yeah. [08:34.000 --> 08:35.000] Like what is this? [08:35.000 --> 08:36.000] And it does. [08:36.000 --> 08:37.000] That's the climax of it. [08:37.000 --> 08:40.000] Unfortunately, like it kind of like, yeah, that's like the best part of it. [08:40.000 --> 08:44.000] But I will say the whole vibe of the song makes me think of Little Mix. [08:44.000 --> 08:47.000] You know, cause they did the whole militants kind of thing. [08:47.000 --> 08:48.000] Power salute. [08:48.000 --> 08:49.000] Yes. [08:49.000 --> 08:50.000] So this made me think of that. [08:50.000 --> 08:52.000] I was like, Oh, I could hear Jade or Perry belting that intro. [08:52.000 --> 08:54.000] You know, like it could work with those songs. [08:54.000 --> 08:55.000] Yeah. [08:55.000 --> 08:56.000] Yeah. [08:56.000 --> 08:57.000] Yeah. [08:57.000 --> 08:58.000] Yeah. [08:58.000 --> 08:59.000] Yeah. [09:04.000 --> 09:05.000] Yeah. [09:05.000 --> 09:06.000] So yeah, that was my reference. [09:06.000 --> 09:07.000] It's nice. [09:07.000 --> 09:09.000] But yeah, I think the instrumental and production is fun. [09:09.000 --> 09:12.000] Like the process guitars, the wiry synths and dust. [09:12.000 --> 09:14.000] It all feels very full. [09:14.000 --> 09:16.000] It has a lot of like drive to it. [09:16.000 --> 09:18.000] And it's that militant thing. [09:18.000 --> 09:19.000] Yeah. [09:19.000 --> 09:20.000] You want to like march to it. [09:20.000 --> 09:22.000] Like it has that progression in it. [09:22.000 --> 09:24.000] The chorus moment. [09:24.000 --> 09:29.000] I've seen a lot of people compare this to Everglow on socials. [09:29.000 --> 09:32.000] People have referenced that this song kind of sounds like Everglow a little bit. [09:33.000 --> 09:35.000] Which now that I've read that, I hear it for sure. [09:35.000 --> 09:36.000] Yeah. [09:36.000 --> 09:40.000] And people have also been pointing out there are lyrical shout outs to other girl group. [09:40.000 --> 09:41.000] Yes. [09:41.000 --> 09:43.000] Well, like there's savage. [09:43.000 --> 09:44.000] Yes. [09:44.000 --> 09:45.000] There's beer lists from the seraphy. [09:45.000 --> 09:46.000] So I love that. [09:46.000 --> 09:47.000] You know. [09:47.000 --> 09:49.000] So yeah, I appreciate that. [09:49.000 --> 09:53.000] And the final outro moment is giving black paint for sure. [09:53.000 --> 09:54.000] I have things to say. [09:54.000 --> 09:56.000] You know, a lot of it later. [09:56.000 --> 09:57.000] Okay. [09:57.000 --> 09:58.000] Oh, later. [09:58.000 --> 09:59.000] Okay. [10:00.000 --> 10:01.000] It's giving black pink. [10:01.000 --> 10:04.000] It's fun, but it just feels derivative of that a little bit. [10:04.000 --> 10:09.000] Um, so again, yeah, I think it just starts off like that intro is so good. [10:09.000 --> 10:11.000] And then I kind of just like. [10:11.000 --> 10:13.000] Tumbles down the hill a little bit for me. [10:13.000 --> 10:17.000] I guess it I guess it tumbles down to just another level that stays there. [10:17.000 --> 10:18.000] Oh, yeah. [10:18.000 --> 10:19.000] Yeah. [10:19.000 --> 10:20.000] Yeah. [10:20.000 --> 10:21.000] Yeah. [10:21.000 --> 10:22.000] Yeah. [10:22.000 --> 10:23.000] Yeah. [10:23.000 --> 10:24.000] Yeah. [10:24.000 --> 10:25.000] Yeah. [10:25.000 --> 10:26.000] It's not my favorite. [10:27.000 --> 10:28.000] Yeah. [10:28.000 --> 10:29.000] Yeah. [10:29.000 --> 10:30.000] Yeah. [10:30.000 --> 10:31.000] Yeah. [10:31.000 --> 10:32.000] Neverland. [10:32.000 --> 10:34.000] Listen, don't come for us. [10:34.000 --> 10:37.000] I mean, give us your thoughts in the comments. [10:37.000 --> 10:38.000] Yeah. [10:38.000 --> 10:39.000] Yeah. [10:39.000 --> 10:40.000] All right. [10:40.000 --> 10:44.000] Player three, we have SF nine or is it SF eight with? [10:44.000 --> 10:45.000] Oh, my no. [10:45.000 --> 10:46.000] Be border. [10:46.000 --> 10:47.000] Player three. [10:47.000 --> 10:50.000] And it's done by Han Song Ho. [10:51.000 --> 10:52.000] Okay. [10:52.000 --> 10:54.000] I'm glad you said all those Korean names. [10:54.000 --> 10:55.000] Yes. [10:55.000 --> 10:56.000] So. [10:56.000 --> 10:57.000] Rowan is gone. [10:57.000 --> 10:58.000] Oh. [10:58.000 --> 10:59.000] Right. [10:59.000 --> 11:00.000] It's not about that. [11:00.000 --> 11:01.000] Yeah. [11:01.000 --> 11:02.000] I mean, we all might have knew it was coming. [11:02.000 --> 11:03.000] You were so funny. [11:03.000 --> 11:06.000] I showed a friend who's that indicate pop at all. [11:06.000 --> 11:09.000] Some performances like from like, uh, maybe from Toronto. [11:09.000 --> 11:10.000] Yeah. [11:10.000 --> 11:11.000] Yeah. [11:11.000 --> 11:12.000] Yeah. [11:12.000 --> 11:13.000] Yeah. [11:13.000 --> 11:14.000] Yeah. [11:14.000 --> 11:15.000] Yeah. [11:15.000 --> 11:16.000] Yeah. [11:16.000 --> 11:17.000] Yeah. [11:18.000 --> 11:19.000] He's fine. [11:19.000 --> 11:20.000] He's so fine. [11:20.000 --> 11:21.000] But why is he like, he doesn't want to be there. [11:21.000 --> 11:24.000] And I was like, his, I mean, he was really busy with the acting and stuff like that. [11:24.000 --> 11:25.000] So yeah, and he had the injuries. [11:25.000 --> 11:26.000] Yes, the bat. [11:26.000 --> 11:27.000] Yeah. [11:27.000 --> 11:28.000] Yeah. [11:28.000 --> 11:29.000] The injuries. [11:29.000 --> 11:31.000] And I think that was making him hold back a bit in those performances. [11:31.000 --> 11:32.000] Yeah. [11:32.000 --> 11:33.000] Sure. [11:33.000 --> 11:35.000] He felt maybe he was holding the group back a little bit with that. [11:35.000 --> 11:36.000] So no T. [11:36.000 --> 11:37.000] No shame, it was just so funny that even she noticed. [11:37.000 --> 11:38.000] She was like, Oh, that is not the group. [11:38.000 --> 11:39.000] Yeah. [11:39.000 --> 11:40.000] Yeah. [11:40.000 --> 11:41.000] Yeah. [11:41.000 --> 11:42.000] Yeah. [11:42.000 --> 11:43.000] Yeah. [11:43.000 --> 11:44.000] Oh. [11:44.000 --> 11:45.000] Yeah. [11:45.000 --> 11:46.480] You know what, he was there for what he was there for. [11:46.480 --> 11:46.980] Yeah. [11:46.980 --> 11:48.520] But yeah, I'm glad they moved on. [11:48.520 --> 11:49.240] Yeah. [11:49.240 --> 11:53.560] We have a new song from them, shout out to our patron Lily. [11:53.560 --> 11:55.080] We know you love SF9. [11:55.080 --> 12:00.120] So yes, and you'll have to let us know your thoughts as well. [12:00.120 --> 12:01.840] But yeah, I enjoy this song. [12:01.840 --> 12:03.560] There is something just so K-pop about it. [12:03.560 --> 12:04.040] Oh my God. [12:04.040 --> 12:07.320] Because you know, like K-pop now has just tried so hard [12:07.320 --> 12:08.760] to sound Western. [12:08.760 --> 12:09.360] Yeah. [12:09.360 --> 12:12.880] And this song is just very pure K-pop. [12:12.880 --> 12:14.400] It is. [12:14.400 --> 12:16.200] Like it feels like a progression of like K-pop [12:16.200 --> 12:17.480] from like a few years ago. [12:17.480 --> 12:18.120] Yeah. [12:18.120 --> 12:19.840] For all the Western influence came in. [12:19.840 --> 12:21.560] So that's when we got into it. [12:21.560 --> 12:21.760] Yeah. [12:21.760 --> 12:22.920] So I appreciate that. [12:22.920 --> 12:24.400] But it doesn't sound dated. [12:24.400 --> 12:25.080] Yeah. [12:25.080 --> 12:26.880] Like it does sound like a progression from that. [12:26.880 --> 12:29.480] So yes, I appreciate the art trying to follow the trend [12:29.480 --> 12:31.240] and too much there. [12:31.240 --> 12:34.040] The dance beat that runs through has a nice energy to it. [12:34.040 --> 12:36.640] It starts off kind of, you know, like right? [12:36.640 --> 12:37.600] It starts off strong. [12:37.600 --> 12:39.040] Yeah. [12:39.040 --> 12:40.720] And the verse melodies are really nice. [12:40.720 --> 12:42.440] I would say I would say actually like the verses more [12:42.440 --> 12:43.040] than the chorus. [12:43.040 --> 12:43.680] Ooh, Amy. [12:44.160 --> 12:46.280] I think the melody of the chorus is satisfying. [12:46.280 --> 12:49.120] And I think the post chorus with the, uh, uh, [12:49.120 --> 12:50.920] the like the repeat is nice. [12:50.920 --> 12:51.680] Yeah. [12:51.680 --> 12:55.040] I would have loved an even bigger harmony stack there [12:55.040 --> 12:58.560] just to build the energy a little bit more. [12:58.560 --> 13:01.280] And yeah, I appreciate the vocal production of it. [13:01.280 --> 13:02.440] Like all the switching back and forth. [13:02.440 --> 13:03.640] Like icing line, using line. [13:03.640 --> 13:04.640] Yeah. [13:04.640 --> 13:06.200] Yeah, I do enjoy that. [13:06.200 --> 13:07.960] And they all sound really good. [13:07.960 --> 13:10.480] It's not overly auto-tuned. [13:10.960 --> 13:13.560] Zuho's rap verse is pretty good there. [13:13.560 --> 13:14.800] And it's a highlight. [13:14.800 --> 13:18.440] I will say Taehyung's voice stands out for me for sure. [13:18.440 --> 13:19.840] Very sexy tone. [13:19.840 --> 13:21.240] I was going to say that was trying to be dirty. [13:21.240 --> 13:24.760] Yeah, and the slight rasp and like breathiness. [13:24.760 --> 13:27.560] He like really knows how to do that well. [13:27.560 --> 13:27.920] Yeah. [13:27.920 --> 13:29.960] But so yeah, so I didn't even know it was him. [13:29.960 --> 13:31.560] I was just like, when I first listened to it, [13:31.560 --> 13:34.160] I was just like, you know, just like, pose my eyes, [13:34.160 --> 13:35.040] like listen to the track. [13:35.040 --> 13:35.400] Right. [13:35.400 --> 13:36.760] And then it was only after when I read the lyrics [13:36.760 --> 13:37.600] and I was like, oh, it's him. [13:37.600 --> 13:38.480] Of course it's him. [13:38.480 --> 13:39.840] Of course it's him. [13:39.920 --> 13:42.560] Anyway, that same friend was like, who's that? [13:42.560 --> 13:43.880] She like, he's a star. [13:43.880 --> 13:44.680] He's a star. [13:44.680 --> 13:45.560] He is a star. [13:45.560 --> 13:46.280] But we'll get to that. [13:46.280 --> 13:48.480] I guess we'll get to the visuals. [13:48.480 --> 13:53.480] OK, so hot and hard broken boys all back out of the puzzle. [13:53.480 --> 13:54.000] I love that. [13:54.000 --> 13:55.520] OK, don't get me wrong. [13:55.520 --> 13:59.320] If you watch the show, every time the guys have been on our, [13:59.320 --> 14:02.360] like, hot boss reviews, I've said, stop crying. [14:02.360 --> 14:04.200] But you know what? [14:04.200 --> 14:06.280] Keep crying. [14:06.280 --> 14:08.760] Listen, this one is like more like asking the person to come back. [14:08.760 --> 14:09.480] And I'm OK with that. [14:09.480 --> 14:10.360] At this point, they're handsome. [14:10.360 --> 14:11.040] They're talented. [14:11.040 --> 14:13.040] Like, who wouldn't want their ex to be like, I want you back. [14:13.040 --> 14:14.840] I want you back. [14:14.840 --> 14:16.560] You know, it's cute. [14:16.560 --> 14:17.280] Oh, what they do. [14:17.280 --> 14:17.920] But yeah. [14:17.920 --> 14:20.640] Yeah, right. [14:20.640 --> 14:21.400] Depends on what they do. [14:21.400 --> 14:21.880] So, right? [14:21.880 --> 14:23.800] Yeah. [14:23.800 --> 14:27.240] Anyway, the reason I brought a role not being there and whatnot [14:27.240 --> 14:29.240] is because Zulu's parts are very interesting [14:29.240 --> 14:30.920] because he has a lower tone. [14:30.920 --> 14:34.600] Rowan was more of the lower toned R&B-ish singer. [14:34.600 --> 14:37.080] So I think him singing those first parts are interesting [14:37.080 --> 14:39.120] because like, Rowan could have been singing there. [14:39.120 --> 14:41.200] Even that one has more parts where I think Jay Eun [14:41.200 --> 14:42.280] would have sang. [14:42.280 --> 14:42.840] You know what I'm saying? [14:42.840 --> 14:45.560] Just in terms of like, Tim. [14:45.560 --> 14:46.600] Zulu sounded great. [14:46.600 --> 14:47.240] Exactly. [14:47.240 --> 14:47.600] Yeah. [14:47.600 --> 14:49.040] And I was so happy because I was like, [14:49.040 --> 14:50.840] this is what building a group is about. [14:50.840 --> 14:52.720] Not sort of having multiple members, [14:52.720 --> 14:54.440] but just in case song can't sing a part [14:54.440 --> 14:56.760] or maybe there's a vocal growth. [14:56.760 --> 14:58.120] Another member can sing. [14:58.120 --> 14:59.440] And that's what it's showing here. [14:59.440 --> 15:01.440] So I think they both had a lot more parts. [15:01.440 --> 15:04.080] And even without certain members, they really hold it down. [15:04.080 --> 15:05.080] And that's what's important. [15:05.080 --> 15:07.280] I really do appreciate it because the performance quality [15:07.280 --> 15:11.000] didn't drop because they lost Jay Eun to the offer meeting. [15:11.000 --> 15:12.520] And then Rowan to like, you know, [15:12.520 --> 15:14.800] life change or changes, whatever. [15:14.800 --> 15:16.480] I will say there are a few lies. [15:16.480 --> 15:17.360] I didn't let me go what? [15:17.360 --> 15:18.080] Yeah. [15:18.080 --> 15:21.480] Like we young calling themself, they call me carpet. [15:21.480 --> 15:23.080] Yeah. [15:23.080 --> 15:25.120] But I didn't know that he was saying that. [15:25.120 --> 15:25.680] Hilarious. [15:25.680 --> 15:26.880] Like when I listened to, you know, [15:26.880 --> 15:27.960] I wasn't until I read the lyrics. [15:27.960 --> 15:31.000] I was like, I'm just, yeah. [15:31.000 --> 15:32.800] I mean, he's things that with conviction. [15:32.800 --> 15:34.400] They call me carpet. [15:34.400 --> 15:37.240] I was like, no, it's not his fault. [15:37.400 --> 15:40.120] And it might be he wrote something he wrote. [15:40.120 --> 15:40.840] He's on the list. [15:40.840 --> 15:42.120] But I don't think he's on the list. [15:42.120 --> 15:44.360] It's just a bit, you know, you're writing on it. [15:44.360 --> 15:45.600] He might have written his own line. [15:45.600 --> 15:47.600] So for debate, but my point, is there a better way [15:47.600 --> 15:50.240] to express saying that you feel like a doormat? [15:50.240 --> 15:54.160] Like whoever wrote that line, I'm just good for him, [15:54.160 --> 15:56.000] though, for writing a lot, either way. [15:56.000 --> 15:57.200] But I just don't like that one. [15:57.200 --> 15:59.160] That's one of the lines I just really just stood out to me. [15:59.160 --> 16:02.960] And in song is a gem throughout this whole song. [16:02.960 --> 16:06.240] He gave me the ad libs that I need in your groups. [16:06.960 --> 16:08.480] Because they give all the noise throughout the song [16:08.480 --> 16:10.640] that by the time you get to the end, your ears are fatigued. [16:10.640 --> 16:11.360] This was great. [16:11.360 --> 16:12.480] And then he gave it to me. [16:12.480 --> 16:14.920] And like you said, the production baseline gives a coolness. [16:14.920 --> 16:16.760] The melody of the keys made it sentimental. [16:16.760 --> 16:18.440] And the strings gave it drama. [16:18.440 --> 16:19.720] The song is satisfactory. [16:19.720 --> 16:23.160] But I have to say, I'm not sure if it stands up to teardrop, puzzle, [16:23.160 --> 16:24.680] or even trauma. [16:24.680 --> 16:25.720] I can agree with that. [16:25.720 --> 16:26.200] OK. [16:26.200 --> 16:26.760] Yeah. [16:26.760 --> 16:27.680] I'm just all right. [16:27.680 --> 16:30.200] So that's the end of round one. [16:30.200 --> 16:32.040] So it's time to pick a winner. [16:32.040 --> 16:33.560] This one's interesting here. [16:33.560 --> 16:36.600] Because I feel like it's even like we like certain things about. [16:36.600 --> 16:37.360] Yeah. [16:37.360 --> 16:38.000] Don't like. [16:38.000 --> 16:38.960] Yeah. [16:38.960 --> 16:39.600] Shoot. [16:39.600 --> 16:40.240] I didn't actually. [16:40.240 --> 16:46.240] I think out of these three, if I had to choose one to listen to right now, [16:46.240 --> 16:48.800] I would probably pick SF9. [16:48.800 --> 16:49.840] Oh, I'm surprised. [16:49.840 --> 16:50.680] Yeah. [16:50.680 --> 16:53.720] Because you know, I can't I'm into that kind of like older kpop, [16:53.720 --> 16:55.600] like like dance thing. [16:55.600 --> 16:56.280] No, you're right. [16:56.280 --> 17:00.000] So it fits in like what I usually like. [17:00.000 --> 17:02.920] So I guess out of the out of these, I guess I'll pick that one. [17:02.920 --> 17:03.600] Dang. [17:03.600 --> 17:04.840] Oh, my God. [17:04.840 --> 17:05.960] You know what? [17:05.960 --> 17:06.680] You're right. [17:06.680 --> 17:09.480] I also think I can sing the verses back to you right now. [17:09.480 --> 17:16.080] And the Morris fully of SF9, as opposed to just the chorus and bridge of rewind. [17:16.080 --> 17:17.920] So I'm going to pick people as well. [17:17.920 --> 17:22.560] OK, when interesting, so we'll SF9 win round two. [17:22.560 --> 17:26.080] Maybe round two is about the video. [17:26.080 --> 17:29.680] Round two. [17:29.680 --> 17:32.000] So first up. [17:32.000 --> 17:35.560] OK, B1A4 rewind. [17:35.560 --> 17:36.920] What did you think? [17:36.920 --> 17:37.840] I had that video. [17:37.840 --> 17:38.800] It's so weird. [17:38.800 --> 17:41.600] You know, it's true B1A4 fashion, for sure. [17:41.600 --> 17:42.840] It's weird. [17:42.840 --> 17:44.120] Oh, is that what they're known for? [17:44.120 --> 17:47.840] I mean, when they would like think about like Kpop era. [17:47.840 --> 17:50.840] When it was like super colorful and like all the random like Disney kind of [17:50.840 --> 17:54.600] silhouettes, where it's like short jacket, mong shirt. [17:54.600 --> 17:57.200] That and like and like the what's happening video. [17:57.200 --> 17:59.480] There's like this couple with like these Barbie and Ken math. [17:59.480 --> 18:00.680] It was very strange. [18:00.680 --> 18:05.920] And then they have beautiful target and they're all like a little ambulance fire [18:05.920 --> 18:06.440] truck thing. [18:06.440 --> 18:07.480] So it's a little weird to me. [18:07.480 --> 18:09.040] It feels like I'm trying to shoot a form. [18:09.040 --> 18:11.680] OK, but it's like a mature version of true to form. [18:11.680 --> 18:16.960] OK, they all seem to have like this but not in this lifestyle in the in the video. [18:16.960 --> 18:17.320] Right. [18:17.320 --> 18:20.560] Like Gokchan's in a factory see news in a Kenpo training facility and [18:20.560 --> 18:22.840] Sandu is commuting on the train. [18:22.840 --> 18:25.240] It could all be a bad dream that they're having. [18:25.240 --> 18:28.760] Boring lives that reappear and do the same thing over and over again until [18:28.760 --> 18:29.760] something disrupted. [18:29.760 --> 18:32.120] In this case, it's a winged something or other. [18:32.120 --> 18:35.880] The talk to one scene, the feather, a little baby Cupid, this kind of thing. [18:35.880 --> 18:39.160] And I guess each disruption causes like the boys world to like blend. [18:39.160 --> 18:43.680] It's very like marvelous into the spider verse giving, you know, because [18:43.680 --> 18:46.840] it's like why are they all like meeting up and then like enjoying each other's [18:46.840 --> 18:47.320] company? [18:47.320 --> 18:49.400] OK, the stand out scenes were like the lightsaber scene. [18:49.400 --> 18:50.120] I thought that was so cute. [18:50.120 --> 18:52.080] That or everything everything everywhere at once. [18:52.080 --> 18:54.360] That's kind of like blending the world or whatever. [18:54.360 --> 18:56.000] And it's like, why is there a lightsaber in this? [18:56.000 --> 18:56.960] Like 10 foot. [18:56.960 --> 18:57.560] You know what I'm saying? [18:57.560 --> 19:02.240] You know, like why is it that when someone shoots a gun or something, it hits [19:02.240 --> 19:05.040] another member or the train, right? [19:05.040 --> 19:05.560] Yeah. [19:05.560 --> 19:07.200] So yeah, dancing all the chair was super cute. [19:07.200 --> 19:08.760] And then the lightsaber scene was cool. [19:08.760 --> 19:13.240] But and then it clicked really kept clicking the forget and the thing giving [19:13.240 --> 19:16.240] everywhere, everything everywhere on me, Google the S. [19:16.240 --> 19:18.200] OK, OK, it's my theory. [19:18.200 --> 19:19.000] Yeah. [19:19.000 --> 19:22.160] I mean, so yeah, like I said, I don't really know much about B-24. [19:22.160 --> 19:24.000] So yeah, this was definitely odd. [19:24.000 --> 19:27.520] So yeah, I didn't know what to expect really. [19:27.520 --> 19:28.840] But I enjoyed it was entertaining. [19:28.840 --> 19:30.360] I mean, because it's weird, right? [19:30.360 --> 19:31.640] And it does have some great moments. [19:31.640 --> 19:37.000] Like I think the cinematography of all three individual like locations were great. [19:37.000 --> 19:38.320] Like they're all completely different. [19:38.320 --> 19:40.800] There's like kind of odd stuff going on and all three of them. [19:40.800 --> 19:43.960] So there's little things you can look out for each one. [19:43.960 --> 19:47.880] So yeah, my interpretation was more just that it was about like the monotony of life, [19:47.880 --> 19:50.240] like regular life. [19:50.240 --> 19:52.320] And then you have your friends to like help you. [19:52.320 --> 19:52.880] Oh, that's cute. [19:52.880 --> 19:53.080] Right. [19:53.080 --> 19:54.440] Gonna say that's what I thought. [19:54.440 --> 19:57.240] Because like it's like the three of them are like coming out and they're like, [19:57.240 --> 19:58.800] actually having fun together. [19:58.800 --> 20:01.400] So yeah, I didn't go as deep I guess as you. [20:01.400 --> 20:01.920] That's me. [20:01.920 --> 20:02.520] And hat. [20:02.520 --> 20:03.320] I will appreciate. [20:03.320 --> 20:05.720] I mean, we'll talk about the choreography for round three. [20:05.720 --> 20:11.440] But I did appreciate how like loose they all were like to performance wise in those scenes. [20:11.440 --> 20:12.960] Yeah. [20:12.960 --> 20:17.600] And it's just refreshing because obviously with K most K-pop groups now are so polished [20:17.600 --> 20:21.800] and this one felt not as planned, which was like just refreshing. [20:21.800 --> 20:23.440] Yeah, very great. [20:23.440 --> 20:23.920] All right. [20:23.920 --> 20:27.640] So we have player two with super late. [20:27.640 --> 20:28.120] Mm. [20:28.120 --> 20:28.480] All right. [20:28.480 --> 20:29.680] So what did you think about this video? [20:29.680 --> 20:31.240] Because I mean, it's what I wanted. [20:31.240 --> 20:34.040] It's what I wanted from when I heard the song. [20:34.040 --> 20:35.120] It's good. [20:35.120 --> 20:36.680] It's a good video. [20:36.680 --> 20:37.960] No stadium scenes. [20:37.960 --> 20:38.560] Oh, man. [20:38.560 --> 20:39.280] Are awesome. [20:39.280 --> 20:43.040] Like the stage set up with the like all the levels and stuff and it just [20:43.040 --> 20:44.880] look, you know, grand. [20:44.880 --> 20:47.640] The five of them look so strong together. [20:47.640 --> 20:50.760] Like, I think we've talked about this maybe with girls out or something. [20:50.840 --> 20:55.360] There's that performance of Fling where they are just stomping down all in all of [20:55.360 --> 20:58.920] their any of those gold dresses and it's it's that what that's what you want. [20:58.920 --> 20:59.520] Yeah. [20:59.520 --> 20:59.920] Girl group. [20:59.920 --> 21:01.840] It's that to feel like a yes. [21:01.840 --> 21:05.280] It's it's the when the power when they're together. [21:05.280 --> 21:06.120] Yes. [21:06.120 --> 21:06.720] Are you in it? [21:06.720 --> 21:07.240] Yes. [21:07.240 --> 21:07.680] Yeah. [21:07.680 --> 21:09.560] And you can feel that chemistry. [21:09.560 --> 21:10.080] Yeah. [21:10.080 --> 21:15.360] And with G idol, I will say they have one of the best like group chemistry. [21:15.360 --> 21:15.880] Absolutely. [21:15.880 --> 21:17.080] I think of current. [21:17.080 --> 21:19.240] Hey, pop groups, not just gold groups. [21:19.240 --> 21:20.360] Like in general. [21:20.360 --> 21:24.480] Like the they you can just feel that they are all on the same wave. [21:24.480 --> 21:28.360] Like in their group scenes, they're all giving the same amount of energy. [21:28.360 --> 21:30.000] They're all getting the same vibe. [21:30.000 --> 21:30.400] Yeah. [21:30.400 --> 21:33.080] Like, yeah, I really, really appreciate with that that with them. [21:34.120 --> 21:35.360] The individual scenes are great. [21:35.360 --> 21:35.760] Yeah. [21:35.760 --> 21:37.720] Of course, like everything stood out honestly. [21:37.720 --> 21:40.440] And like all five are memorable scenes. [21:41.040 --> 21:45.480] They kept the color palette and of the same is very Renaissance or say Renaissance. [21:45.640 --> 21:50.680] Um, and yeah, you know, they're just great performers. [21:50.680 --> 21:53.760] Like all five of them, like they just improved so much. [21:53.760 --> 21:55.440] Like as a unit, it's insane. [21:55.440 --> 21:55.920] Yes. [21:55.920 --> 21:59.920] We'd say that every time I think you talk about G idol, but this is the type of video [21:59.920 --> 22:03.760] that I could show a non Kpop fan and it could convert them. [22:03.760 --> 22:04.640] That's what I did. [22:04.640 --> 22:04.960] Yeah. [22:04.960 --> 22:05.560] Oh, really? [22:05.560 --> 22:06.760] Like the France thing about? [22:06.760 --> 22:07.280] Oh, yeah. [22:07.280 --> 22:07.640] Yeah. [22:07.640 --> 22:08.480] Like, hey, look at this. [22:08.480 --> 22:11.480] Look at she's like, she's like, why am I singing this song? [22:11.480 --> 22:12.480] I says the kind of people. [22:12.480 --> 22:13.320] I watched the video. [22:13.480 --> 22:15.080] She said, excuse me, lady. [22:15.480 --> 22:18.960] She, yeah, because it was giving it is giving a shoot for at the end. [22:18.960 --> 22:21.280] I'll get to it, but the camera angle is good. [22:21.280 --> 22:22.080] She's walking. [22:22.280 --> 22:22.520] Yeah. [22:22.520 --> 22:23.720] The hair is flapping. [22:23.920 --> 22:25.000] I was like, go off, ladies. [22:25.120 --> 22:25.560] All right. [22:25.560 --> 22:30.600] So this video is good because of the color palette. [22:30.600 --> 22:31.800] Like you said, the silver is in the black. [22:31.800 --> 22:33.240] It gives like a full from effect. [22:33.240 --> 22:33.520] Yeah. [22:33.520 --> 22:38.760] And because they maintain those colors, them using like iconic women throughout [22:38.760 --> 22:44.040] pop culture and just using that color palette, I want to say forces the hand of [22:44.040 --> 22:47.520] the people, like the career direction, but it allows for a while. [22:48.160 --> 22:49.320] You made balloons. [22:51.120 --> 22:54.920] If you're not watching balloons, possums, zoom features that we can't turn off. [22:54.960 --> 22:55.440] Sorry. [22:57.160 --> 22:57.960] So where are you? [22:59.600 --> 23:00.840] Well, that's how I thought about this song. [23:00.960 --> 23:01.640] I want to do it again. [23:01.680 --> 23:02.240] Anyway, sorry. [23:02.240 --> 23:02.640] Go ahead. [23:04.440 --> 23:04.680] Well, yeah. [23:04.680 --> 23:08.400] We have Cleopatra, Queen of Hearts, Corella, Medusa and Athena and each of these [23:08.400 --> 23:13.360] girls play this role without trying to look Egyptian without trying to look [23:13.360 --> 23:18.440] like the ethnic group that it comes from because they're forced to use not [23:18.440 --> 23:22.800] forced, but they are able to use and manipulate the silvers and the blacks to fit [23:22.800 --> 23:23.480] the image. [23:23.520 --> 23:25.200] And I think that is what you're supposed to do. [23:25.440 --> 23:28.960] Take the inspiration and then just go with it because I can remember that every [23:28.960 --> 23:32.800] little scene in this video, because it was just so stinking good. [23:33.040 --> 23:37.240] Not because they were copying, but they just did their own thing, you know? [23:37.320 --> 23:41.320] Um, and I think for me, it's like, everything looks super clean. [23:41.720 --> 23:48.760] Like, oh, well, like, even the CG, you know, you and I complain quite often about CGI [23:48.760 --> 23:53.160] and K-pop, but yeah, they're like really bad or flat and just like, but this one, [23:53.160 --> 23:56.000] because of all the lighting, so shout out to the team who directed it. [23:56.400 --> 23:58.160] Um, I loved it. [23:58.160 --> 24:01.120] The girls on the camera, National Christmas throughout. [24:01.560 --> 24:06.120] Uh, and I've got to say, I can't think of Ryan Stone leotards and armies of women [24:06.120 --> 24:07.480] without thinking about Beyonce. [24:07.480 --> 24:07.760] Yeah. [24:07.960 --> 24:08.880] Like that's just her hold. [24:08.880 --> 24:09.760] Y'all had it. [24:09.760 --> 24:11.080] Can't, can't lie about it. [24:11.480 --> 24:15.600] But the girls did what they could to make it something respectable. [24:15.600 --> 24:18.720] And for me, it's like, I was like, I'm, I wish we had a group like after school. [24:18.720 --> 24:19.680] They switched up the concept. [24:19.880 --> 24:22.360] This is the closest thing that I think we're going to get to obstacles. [24:22.360 --> 24:25.240] They've done so many different little things and owned it. [24:25.360 --> 24:26.120] They've owned it. [24:26.200 --> 24:29.400] I'm not sure they don't have on a poll anytime soon, but I would be here. [24:29.400 --> 24:30.120] Oh my God. [24:30.120 --> 24:30.680] Yeah, they could. [24:30.680 --> 24:31.920] They could they would do it. [24:31.920 --> 24:32.400] Yeah. [24:32.400 --> 24:35.640] And they could, because now they had this reputation of being those girls. [24:35.840 --> 24:36.080] Yeah. [24:36.080 --> 24:39.520] And this video stamps that like, bam, super lady. [24:40.280 --> 24:42.240] So yeah, so what I need to do is video. [24:42.360 --> 24:43.600] So we're going to do the proofs too as well. [24:43.600 --> 24:44.560] Oh, yeah. [24:45.200 --> 24:45.520] All right. [24:45.520 --> 24:47.520] So moving on to player three. [24:47.840 --> 24:51.520] What do you think of SF9's eBora video? [24:51.840 --> 24:53.360] OK, hang on. [24:53.360 --> 24:53.840] Sorry. [24:53.840 --> 24:56.120] The start of the video makes you laugh because Chinese on the floor. [24:56.160 --> 24:56.760] Oh, yeah. [24:56.760 --> 24:59.840] So we got to know where I'm like, we'll keep this boy down and get to get out. [25:00.040 --> 25:01.960] I don't know why he was on the ground. [25:01.960 --> 25:06.040] Like, I thought there was no, like, establishing shot of him, like, just kind of laying there. [25:06.040 --> 25:07.720] It was just he spawned. [25:07.720 --> 25:09.320] And I was like, what the heck? [25:09.320 --> 25:10.040] Oh, my gosh. [25:10.240 --> 25:11.760] Oh, that's the only thing I don't really care for. [25:12.240 --> 25:14.360] I think the palette of it was so pretty. [25:14.360 --> 25:17.640] Like the warmer muted colors in this video was really pretty. [25:17.640 --> 25:18.520] It felt like a rainy day. [25:18.760 --> 25:19.920] It looked like a rainy day. [25:19.920 --> 25:22.520] I was like, wow, moody. [25:23.120 --> 25:26.240] The dance scenes were chaotic in terms of camera. [25:27.240 --> 25:29.960] I don't know what it's hard in terms of filming. [25:30.160 --> 25:34.200] And I guess that was to reflect the disorder in one's mind, like the whole [25:34.200 --> 25:38.040] camera work as they're dancing as though it is disorienting. [25:38.040 --> 25:40.040] But I think that's the whole point of it and that. [25:40.040 --> 25:45.560] And they were in this windy kind of like, like a force majeure, kind of [25:46.200 --> 25:47.480] disaster setting. [25:47.840 --> 25:49.520] Like the first one was like, aren't this in red? [25:49.520 --> 25:53.080] The second one was blue or the last one was just blue, baby. [25:53.080 --> 25:54.560] Yeah, it got me engaged. [25:54.800 --> 25:59.600] Uh, I think out of all the scenes, though, because like I lied as many as many compliments as I'm giving it. [25:59.600 --> 26:02.640] This is not anything that they haven't done already. [26:03.120 --> 26:04.520] It's a lot more dynamic than teardrop. [26:04.520 --> 26:08.520] Teardrop was just them sitting there looking like models, you know, like for a few models. [26:08.680 --> 26:11.960] Yeah, this one has a little bit more action and like, you know, the camera [26:11.960 --> 26:14.080] work was fun with them falling on the bed and things like that. [26:14.080 --> 26:17.880] Like things were interesting, but it's not a typical of what they would do, right? [26:17.880 --> 26:21.480] Um, and Zugel's argument scene had me in stitches. [26:21.480 --> 26:24.520] So instead of getting an actual actress, they just had this man. [26:24.880 --> 26:26.480] Yeah, I became an internal struggle. [26:26.760 --> 26:27.320] Yeah. [26:27.320 --> 26:28.320] I had a great job. [26:28.320 --> 26:29.800] I was like, it was very passionate. [26:29.800 --> 26:30.000] Yeah. [26:30.000 --> 26:31.280] I mean, I don't know how I would react. [26:31.280 --> 26:33.120] There's all of a sudden hitting the ceiling when I'm talking to them. [26:33.120 --> 26:37.520] I'm like, this is an instant conversation over, but I guess it was dramatic. [26:37.640 --> 26:38.120] It worked. [26:38.120 --> 26:39.440] His one stood out to me the most. [26:39.760 --> 26:39.920] Yeah. [26:39.920 --> 26:45.800] And that one in the, in the, like this paper flying around him, it's like, oh, yeah, yeah. [26:45.800 --> 26:46.200] Yeah. [26:46.200 --> 26:47.440] Well, I like the dance scenes. [26:47.440 --> 26:51.160] I think those are like my favorite scenes that are just in terms of like how disastrous. [26:51.160 --> 26:53.200] It looked like, you know, was it a bonds? [26:53.240 --> 26:54.480] I can't just stay. [26:54.480 --> 26:54.640] Yeah. [26:54.640 --> 26:55.000] Those. [26:55.520 --> 26:57.080] OK, I did not like those scenes. [26:57.080 --> 27:01.160] I would actually say Zugel was also my favorite part of the whole thing. [27:01.480 --> 27:04.680] But yeah, I, you know, you just mentioned CGI and stuff. [27:04.720 --> 27:07.360] I don't think this needed all those effects. [27:08.720 --> 27:17.760] Like that wasn't like, like all the stuff with like the, um, the wind and the water stream and all that. [27:17.760 --> 27:18.600] Like it just didn't. [27:19.120 --> 27:19.720] Oh, I forgot. [27:19.720 --> 27:20.120] Yeah. [27:20.320 --> 27:22.480] It got about unnecessary. [27:22.720 --> 27:25.800] It's like, for example, like that random moment where one of them is like over [27:25.800 --> 27:29.120] watering the plant, like that's already like enough because it's like odd. [27:29.160 --> 27:29.520] Yeah. [27:29.520 --> 27:33.960] I see that there's internal struggle without needing a CGI leaf to grow out of it. [27:34.480 --> 27:34.920] Do you know what I mean? [27:34.920 --> 27:38.360] Like the point, yeah, like everything is just like extra like it was like those [27:38.360 --> 27:40.920] scenes that didn't have the CGI that stood out the most to me. [27:40.920 --> 27:41.120] Yeah. [27:41.120 --> 27:42.480] Like the bathtub. [27:42.480 --> 27:42.880] Yeah. [27:42.880 --> 27:45.760] Or yeah, the repeats of them falling into the bed. [27:45.760 --> 27:46.240] Yeah. [27:46.520 --> 27:47.080] That's valid. [27:47.080 --> 27:50.480] Those are the most interesting scenes because that's where you really felt the [27:50.480 --> 27:51.720] like internal struggle. [27:51.720 --> 27:55.120] You don't need all the extra nests of all the. [27:55.120 --> 27:55.800] God, what's wrong? [27:55.800 --> 27:56.320] He's the eye. [27:56.320 --> 27:58.440] I just felt like a dancing with a kind of like dancing. [27:59.200 --> 27:59.640] Yeah. [27:59.640 --> 28:01.120] Well, so I didn't like the dance. [28:01.120 --> 28:01.480] I didn't. [28:01.480 --> 28:06.480] I'm sorry if I thought super negative, but I didn't like the dance scenes because [28:06.480 --> 28:09.760] that fake like dead forest scene. [28:10.120 --> 28:14.360] It just looked so cheap because like they're in this apartment building. [28:14.360 --> 28:14.720] Yeah. [28:14.720 --> 28:15.560] Yeah. [28:15.560 --> 28:15.880] Thing. [28:15.880 --> 28:17.760] And then they're on the street and then it's like to wire. [28:17.760 --> 28:21.240] They suddenly in a dead forest. [28:21.440 --> 28:22.920] Because of their life is without this. [28:23.120 --> 28:24.280] Yeah, but I didn't get that. [28:24.280 --> 28:27.480] Like I feel like the whole thing should have just taken place in the apartment [28:27.480 --> 28:30.000] complex and then the street as valid group. [28:30.000 --> 28:30.480] Yeah. [28:30.800 --> 28:34.040] And the rainstorm finally came at the end, which I was I was waiting for that [28:34.040 --> 28:35.960] because obviously people are means rainstorm. [28:37.960 --> 28:40.240] And I will say it's not as like climactic. [28:40.520 --> 28:41.240] Oh, yeah. [28:41.240 --> 28:45.640] Like the rain scene isn't as like this is the climax. [28:45.840 --> 28:48.560] That's what the camera would only meant as I as I wanted it to be. [28:48.560 --> 28:49.560] Oh, yeah, I don't know this video. [28:49.560 --> 28:53.600] Just like it didn't do what I wanted it to do. [28:54.160 --> 28:57.360] And now the now the camera has zoomed in quite in on us. [28:57.360 --> 28:58.240] Very tiny. [28:58.240 --> 28:59.720] I'm like, but you know what? [29:00.280 --> 29:01.480] We can't control it. [29:01.480 --> 29:05.880] So anyway, yeah, it's not a fan. [29:05.880 --> 29:06.440] I'm sorry. [29:06.440 --> 29:07.520] I'm not a fan of this video. [29:07.520 --> 29:09.080] I think they do a good job. [29:09.080 --> 29:11.520] I don't need all the extra extra. [29:11.880 --> 29:13.680] OK, in my defense, I like the colors. [29:14.480 --> 29:18.680] Sure. OK, but I got you saying valid, completely value. [29:18.680 --> 29:19.960] So I got all the CG. [29:20.800 --> 29:23.400] Yeah, Marvel has taken over the world. [29:23.560 --> 29:25.920] I didn't do a little on to the choice. [29:25.920 --> 29:26.640] Yeah, right. [29:26.640 --> 29:29.080] OK, all right, I'll go first. [29:30.280 --> 29:31.080] I go first. [29:31.080 --> 29:32.000] There we go. [29:32.000 --> 29:36.120] I'm going to pick superlady to be. [29:36.840 --> 29:38.240] Has to be super lady. [29:38.240 --> 29:40.000] That video I could watch. [29:40.000 --> 29:41.040] Oh, yeah. [29:41.040 --> 29:43.040] Yeah. Oh, man. [29:43.040 --> 29:46.800] OK, so round three is here. [29:46.800 --> 29:52.280] Yeah, and it's all about the performance and choreography round three. [29:54.280 --> 29:56.640] OK, B1A4 rewind. [29:56.640 --> 30:00.000] Yes. OK, so again, I do love the whole 90s aesthetic. [30:00.000 --> 30:01.520] We haven't seen it in a minute, I think. [30:01.520 --> 30:02.040] True. [30:02.040 --> 30:04.560] Like like this, at least. [30:04.560 --> 30:05.600] So, you know, maybe think of like, [30:05.600 --> 30:07.920] Chinese one of one or like, you know, that kind of thing. [30:07.920 --> 30:10.040] So I appreciate that whole aesthetic. [30:10.640 --> 30:12.560] I did watch quite a few performances. [30:12.560 --> 30:15.480] The ones with the handheld mics are much stronger. [30:15.480 --> 30:18.840] Yeah, because it just makes sense for this and for them [30:18.840 --> 30:20.400] to prioritize the vocals. [30:20.400 --> 30:21.400] Yeah. [30:21.960 --> 30:23.000] And they sound really good. [30:23.720 --> 30:29.080] So, yeah, I think, overall, I appreciate the simplicity of the choreography overall. [30:29.080 --> 30:31.280] Like I'm here to more current K-pop groups. [30:31.280 --> 30:34.360] It is still quite cardio heavy, though, you know, [30:34.360 --> 30:36.680] like there's still a lot of jumping and it's a lot of grooves [30:36.680 --> 30:39.200] and it's a lot of like, faker movements and things. [30:39.200 --> 30:39.720] Yeah. [30:39.720 --> 30:42.160] So, yeah, it's still hard to do. [30:42.160 --> 30:42.520] Yeah. [30:42.520 --> 30:45.560] But it's just, you know, because current K-pop dances are crazy. [30:46.360 --> 30:47.560] And yeah, it looks fun. [30:48.120 --> 30:50.600] And, you know, it does allow a lot of great moments [30:50.600 --> 30:52.560] for them to interact with each other. [30:52.560 --> 30:53.520] So there are a lot of part. [30:53.520 --> 30:55.840] And again, watching all the different performances, [30:55.840 --> 30:59.440] it felt very genuine because it's very relaxed. [30:59.440 --> 31:02.480] It's like when they look at each other, they're giving different faces at each other [31:02.480 --> 31:05.200] or they're actually looking at each other at different parts of the song. [31:05.200 --> 31:08.400] You know, because, you know, we said, I think, for n-mics, maybe, [31:08.400 --> 31:12.400] or I forget who we said, but, you know, where every smile and every wink, [31:12.400 --> 31:15.680] everything is just so choreographed. [31:15.680 --> 31:17.840] It was, um, better up. [31:17.840 --> 31:18.560] Oh, yeah, yeah. [31:18.560 --> 31:19.360] Monster. Yeah. [31:19.360 --> 31:20.160] Yeah. [31:20.160 --> 31:22.240] And with them, I don't need all that. [31:22.240 --> 31:24.240] They're just getting on stage and they're just having fun with it. [31:24.240 --> 31:25.840] So, yeah, I appreciated it. [31:25.840 --> 31:28.400] I think it matched the song and I think it did the job well. [31:28.400 --> 31:29.360] Mm-hmm. Yeah. [31:29.360 --> 31:30.000] You know what? [31:30.000 --> 31:32.400] No, and I think it's an age thing, too. [31:32.400 --> 31:34.480] Like, if you look at me, like, I was watching, [31:34.480 --> 31:37.840] we were watching the Superlady video, or just, you, the faces. [31:37.840 --> 31:40.960] I just look at the camera and I was like, yeah, it's an experience. [31:40.960 --> 31:42.320] Yeah. Yeah, for sure. [31:42.320 --> 31:42.880] Yeah. [31:42.880 --> 31:44.160] And they definitely have it. [31:45.280 --> 31:48.080] Not to say like I'm trying to be like rude or stuff like that, [31:48.080 --> 31:49.680] or like, I'm never going to be 30. [31:49.680 --> 31:51.600] But like, for guys in their 30s and why not, [31:51.680 --> 31:53.680] they were really like giving us some choreo. [31:53.680 --> 31:54.960] Like, I know that sounds crazy. [31:54.960 --> 31:56.960] I know that sounds crazy, but it's been a, hang on. [31:57.680 --> 31:58.880] Wait, hang on. [31:58.880 --> 31:59.280] Wait. [31:59.280 --> 32:03.600] My point is they were not dancing as, dancing as much as they used to. [32:03.600 --> 32:04.480] Like, let's be real here. [32:04.480 --> 32:05.600] Like, all the years have passed. [32:05.600 --> 32:07.200] Like, they haven't performed as like soloists. [32:07.200 --> 32:10.640] We're like, hey, bam, here's my like, my opus right now. [32:10.640 --> 32:11.200] You know what I'm saying? [32:11.200 --> 32:12.320] Like, they were getting it. [32:12.320 --> 32:14.640] Like, I generally enjoyed watching them because [32:15.520 --> 32:19.920] the choreography wasn't super like athletic, [32:19.920 --> 32:22.880] but it has some intricacies that I saw that I thought, [32:22.880 --> 32:25.120] oh, wow, this is very groove heavy. [32:25.120 --> 32:29.280] And no offense, but a lot of people from K-pop, like second gen [32:29.280 --> 32:30.640] were not grooving. [32:30.640 --> 32:35.680] It was a lot of stop and go and stop and go. [32:35.680 --> 32:37.120] It doesn't mean they can't dance, [32:37.120 --> 32:40.320] but this dance choreography was very like current, you know? [32:40.960 --> 32:42.720] And I like that it's not too flashy. [32:42.720 --> 32:44.480] It just had like nice grooves and footwork. [32:45.440 --> 32:47.120] And shout out to whoever choreographed it. [32:47.120 --> 32:48.240] I didn't find out who it was, [32:48.240 --> 32:52.000] but like the formations throughout the first verse are so good. [32:52.000 --> 32:54.720] Um, they really utilize the background dances really well. [32:54.720 --> 32:58.800] And I like the back, the point dance, the rewind, rewind. [32:58.800 --> 33:00.240] And then they did something else with the, [33:00.240 --> 33:03.600] with some other hand stuff that fit rewind, [33:03.600 --> 33:04.480] a fit rewind. [33:05.520 --> 33:09.920] Sando, Gontan and Senu look so much like they were having a lot of fun. [33:10.480 --> 33:12.000] And I appreciate that. [33:12.000 --> 33:14.640] Cause like you said, and I appreciate that they're singing a lot. [33:14.640 --> 33:16.800] Cause I always want to go flat, which I appreciate. [33:16.800 --> 33:19.360] Cause I rather take a flat note because you were dancing and singing. [33:19.920 --> 33:21.600] Then pay to see you to lip-sank. [33:21.600 --> 33:23.040] So go high guys. [33:24.480 --> 33:24.880] Yes. [33:24.880 --> 33:25.120] Okay. [33:25.120 --> 33:27.200] So moving on to super lady. [33:27.840 --> 33:31.120] So this was done by Kristen of Chan Republic. [33:32.240 --> 33:35.360] By way of world family. [33:35.360 --> 33:36.480] By way of Periscope. [33:37.360 --> 33:38.160] By way of Kyle too. [33:38.160 --> 33:38.800] And who knows? [33:38.800 --> 33:41.200] Anyway, I wasn't expecting crazy choreography [33:41.200 --> 33:43.040] because they're not the girls to do that. [33:43.040 --> 33:43.440] Yeah. [33:43.440 --> 33:48.080] But I do wish that for the chorus a more boog, inspired or wacking style. [33:48.080 --> 33:52.320] Something a little bit more like that was less like Beyonce on the run [33:52.960 --> 33:54.000] for tour. [33:54.000 --> 33:54.640] You know what I'm saying? [33:54.640 --> 33:56.800] Like Green Renaissance dancing. [33:56.800 --> 33:59.120] Like something just a little bit more femme. [33:59.120 --> 34:02.080] I'm not saying they weren't feminine, but it was just very much like, [34:02.080 --> 34:05.120] dumb on ladies, super ladies. [34:05.120 --> 34:06.880] It was just kind of like, okay, I guess. [34:07.680 --> 34:10.160] The marching movement was just all right. [34:10.720 --> 34:13.920] And toward the end, it felt very rural family coded. [34:15.440 --> 34:16.320] Not a bad thing. [34:16.880 --> 34:17.760] Not a bad thing. [34:18.320 --> 34:20.400] But we all know how they dance. [34:20.400 --> 34:25.040] It's very much like repeat the same thing over again and build it up. [34:25.040 --> 34:25.680] It's a build up. [34:25.680 --> 34:26.400] It's a cannon. [34:26.400 --> 34:28.400] It's a pickup, rather a pickup, pickup, pickup. [34:28.400 --> 34:29.680] And it has the effect. [34:29.680 --> 34:30.480] Well, that's fine. [34:30.480 --> 34:31.360] That's dandy. [34:31.360 --> 34:34.080] But like you said, it sounded like a black pink song. [34:34.080 --> 34:36.480] And let's kill this love. [34:36.480 --> 34:37.440] No, it's sad. [34:37.440 --> 34:37.840] Yeah. [34:37.920 --> 34:40.000] The same thing, hands, hands. [34:40.000 --> 34:45.840] And I was like, dang, that is the problem kind of with using choreographers that have choreographed [34:45.840 --> 34:49.040] for other people or having songs that feel like other things. [34:49.040 --> 34:52.640] Because even if the choreographer does not mean to do so, it happens. [34:52.640 --> 34:55.200] We kind of tend to go, oh, yeah, this feels like this fits here. [34:55.200 --> 35:01.200] And not realize that we've used it before or like, it looks similar to, you know what I'm saying? [35:01.200 --> 35:06.160] So I think that's the kind of thing for me that bothered me a little bit was that it was [35:06.800 --> 35:11.760] too similar to someone else's or it looked like the choreographer that made it. [35:12.640 --> 35:15.040] And not like idols kind of quick because they can dance. [35:15.040 --> 35:18.080] They have done dances like they're a little bit more complicated. [35:18.080 --> 35:20.240] But this one was a little bit more like, it was okay. [35:20.240 --> 35:24.240] No shade that Kristen, Kristen, yeah, Kirsten, excuse me, she's amazing. [35:24.240 --> 35:25.120] Absolutely amazing. [35:25.120 --> 35:26.240] Absolutely amazing. [35:26.240 --> 35:30.480] But I just feel like with what she was given with musicality and maybe time constraints, [35:30.480 --> 35:35.840] whatever the case may be, it just did not feel as, don't get me wrong that the performances, [35:35.920 --> 35:37.200] they've been doing a pretty decent job. [35:37.200 --> 35:40.320] But I like the beginning where they peel out and come back together. [35:40.320 --> 35:41.840] Formations are really good. [35:41.840 --> 35:42.720] They're singing live. [35:42.720 --> 35:45.360] So I'm not expecting like jerky choreography. [35:45.360 --> 35:46.240] And I appreciate that. [35:46.240 --> 35:50.160] So Kirsten choreographed properly for performers. [35:50.800 --> 35:51.440] Yeah. [35:51.440 --> 35:53.040] And that's what I'm saying. [35:53.040 --> 35:55.760] I just feel like some of the moves were like, oh, I've seen that before. [35:56.800 --> 35:57.280] Yeah. [35:57.280 --> 35:57.600] Yeah. [35:57.600 --> 36:03.200] I will say, so with the performances, they've had some really cool, they've had some really cool [36:03.200 --> 36:07.920] staging and stuff with stage one up and like, yeah, like just like, yeah, very, very cool. [36:09.440 --> 36:11.520] I will say, so I didn't know who choreographed it. [36:11.520 --> 36:15.360] So thank you for the information because it was giving like Western. [36:15.360 --> 36:16.000] Yes. [36:16.000 --> 36:16.640] That's what it was. [36:16.640 --> 36:16.960] Yeah. [36:16.960 --> 36:19.040] It was giving Western girl group. [36:19.040 --> 36:20.400] Like I mentioned Little Mix. [36:20.400 --> 36:20.960] Yeah. [36:20.960 --> 36:23.520] I could see Little Mix doing this choreography. [36:23.520 --> 36:24.160] Yes. [36:24.160 --> 36:25.280] And again, I'd read with you. [36:25.280 --> 36:26.560] It's not in a bad way. [36:27.120 --> 36:31.600] Like it fits in with them, like if you've never seen them perform like power or salute or anything, [36:31.680 --> 36:35.360] it totally fits with like what this was. [36:35.360 --> 36:38.080] So it's just not very k-poppy. [36:39.600 --> 36:42.960] And yes, it does allow them to then like really just perform it. [36:42.960 --> 36:47.600] So they don't need focus on doing all these crazy moves and getting them right. [36:47.600 --> 36:49.200] You know, it's just, it's powerful. [36:49.200 --> 36:50.320] It's a lot of hip hits. [36:50.320 --> 36:52.240] It's, you know, little arm movements. [36:52.240 --> 36:52.640] Yeah. [36:52.640 --> 36:54.000] A lot of hair flips and stuff. [36:54.000 --> 36:54.160] Yeah. [36:54.160 --> 36:56.720] It was just like, it's just performance choreography. [36:56.720 --> 36:58.720] So I appreciate that. [36:58.720 --> 37:01.360] It definitely takes a superhero concept and kind of runs with it. [37:01.760 --> 37:07.040] Like the arms and you know, and that stance at the end, superhero stance at the end. [37:07.040 --> 37:08.080] To be a brook. [37:08.080 --> 37:16.400] So yeah, I think it's hard to judge it against other k-pop groups because it is the more kind [37:16.400 --> 37:18.880] of Western style of it. [37:18.880 --> 37:24.400] So if I look at it from that way, I do think it does a good job. [37:24.960 --> 37:28.720] But in terms of like, would I ever want to learn this or like take [37:29.280 --> 37:31.200] a class of learning this? [37:31.200 --> 37:31.440] No. [37:31.440 --> 37:32.080] Mm-hmm. [37:32.080 --> 37:33.200] That's the, the, yeah. [37:33.200 --> 37:33.440] Yeah. [37:33.440 --> 37:33.920] That's it. [37:33.920 --> 37:35.840] But I enjoy watching them perform it. [37:35.840 --> 37:39.120] But there's no like real like point choreo there. [37:40.320 --> 37:40.640] Yeah. [37:40.640 --> 37:42.240] Like the, what in the heart is that? [37:42.240 --> 37:42.560] Oh. [37:43.200 --> 37:44.960] Oh my, what are they? [37:44.960 --> 37:45.440] Lady. [37:46.400 --> 37:46.880] Lady. [37:46.880 --> 37:47.520] I don't think that. [37:47.520 --> 37:48.240] Lady. [37:48.240 --> 37:48.720] Come on. [37:48.720 --> 37:49.040] Simple. [37:49.040 --> 37:49.840] Oh, yeah. [37:49.840 --> 37:50.400] Point cord. [37:50.400 --> 37:51.360] That's my point. [37:51.360 --> 37:51.680] Yeah. [37:51.680 --> 37:52.160] Yeah. [37:52.160 --> 37:56.480] So, so yeah, again, it just allows them to perform the crap out of it. [37:56.480 --> 37:56.960] Yes. [37:56.960 --> 38:01.760] And they, again, can utilize that chemistry that they have to really like elevate it. [38:01.760 --> 38:02.240] Yeah. [38:02.240 --> 38:06.000] So, so yeah, I, I think it does the job. [38:06.000 --> 38:06.560] Yeah. [38:06.560 --> 38:07.120] So that's that. [38:07.120 --> 38:07.200] Yeah. [38:07.200 --> 38:07.360] Yeah. [38:07.360 --> 38:08.320] Yes. [38:08.320 --> 38:08.640] Yeah. [38:08.640 --> 38:09.920] That's, it's just K-pop. [38:09.920 --> 38:12.080] Again, K-pop choreo is just crazy. [38:12.080 --> 38:14.480] So the standard is just like kind of odd. [38:14.480 --> 38:14.640] Yeah. [38:14.640 --> 38:16.240] So just to compare everything. [38:16.960 --> 38:17.520] Yeah. [38:17.520 --> 38:17.760] Okay. [38:17.760 --> 38:19.040] So the last player. [38:19.920 --> 38:20.880] Bebora. [38:20.880 --> 38:21.280] Okay. [38:21.280 --> 38:24.320] So I did like the choreography more than the videos. [38:24.320 --> 38:26.640] I don't know what the, it's, it's hard. [38:26.800 --> 38:27.280] Bebora. [38:27.280 --> 38:32.960] My first time that I watched this, I was like, yo, this looks hard. [38:32.960 --> 38:36.240] And especially, so for me, I'm very like tall and lanky, right? [38:36.240 --> 38:41.760] So I would, my biggest issue with a dancer over the years has always been that I look flail-y. [38:41.760 --> 38:42.240] Yeah, absolutely. [38:42.240 --> 38:43.600] And it's using my arms, right? [38:43.600 --> 38:43.680] Yeah. [38:43.680 --> 38:47.680] My arms are flail-y when I'm doing like, choreo like this song. [38:47.680 --> 38:53.440] Like I would look awful doing the choreography for this song because it's a lot of arms that [38:53.440 --> 38:58.160] are so sharp and little small movements and it can look really messy. [38:58.160 --> 38:58.480] Right. [38:58.480 --> 39:02.000] So I appreciate that they do a really good job of it. [39:02.000 --> 39:05.760] They're not like 100% together just because the choreography is just crazy. [39:05.760 --> 39:06.160] Yeah. [39:06.160 --> 39:10.480] But they did a good job of cleaning it where they could and executing it and giving the [39:10.480 --> 39:12.160] same amount of energy where they could. [39:13.120 --> 39:18.560] I will say it's hard because I feel like they're danced ability, maybe not ability, [39:18.560 --> 39:21.440] but like just their performance styles mixed back. [39:21.440 --> 39:22.880] It's a mixed bag in this group. [39:22.880 --> 39:23.120] Yeah. [39:23.440 --> 39:25.360] They all kind of give something a little different. [39:25.360 --> 39:31.040] So unlike G-Idle where they're like really cohesive in that way, SF9 has never been that. [39:31.040 --> 39:31.440] Yeah. [39:31.440 --> 39:33.440] But you kind of like Taehyung kind of like. [39:34.000 --> 39:34.640] We're giving it. [39:34.640 --> 39:35.600] Doing the most. [39:35.600 --> 39:36.000] Yeah. [39:36.000 --> 39:37.920] And again, in a good way in his case. [39:37.920 --> 39:38.080] Yeah. [39:38.080 --> 39:43.600] But like, but the others aren't giving that same amount of energy in that. [39:43.600 --> 39:44.080] I don't know. [39:44.080 --> 39:45.040] It's just like, it's not. [39:45.040 --> 39:46.880] It's tough because I get it because we're dancers. [39:46.880 --> 39:47.360] Yeah, yeah, yeah. [39:47.360 --> 39:48.400] And we dance together. [39:48.400 --> 39:49.920] I keep, I dance in a certain way. [39:49.920 --> 39:51.200] I dance in a certain way. [39:51.920 --> 39:52.560] That's what we mean. [39:52.560 --> 39:53.600] It doesn't mean they can't dance. [39:53.600 --> 39:55.920] It just means like people will have certain skill set like. [39:56.640 --> 39:57.280] I don't know. [39:57.280 --> 39:59.280] Like I can, you can whack, right? [39:59.840 --> 40:00.640] Oh, I'm okay. [40:00.640 --> 40:01.120] Yeah, yeah. [40:01.120 --> 40:01.680] I can whack. [40:02.320 --> 40:02.880] You know what I'm saying? [40:02.880 --> 40:04.560] It's also just like vibe that you're giving. [40:04.560 --> 40:04.640] Yeah. [40:04.640 --> 40:07.120] So like if you're doing like a body roll, for example, [40:07.120 --> 40:09.440] like Taehyung goes like full sexy. [40:10.080 --> 40:10.480] Right? [40:10.480 --> 40:13.760] It's all, but some of the others are going more just like, I'm cool. [40:13.760 --> 40:14.320] Yeah. [40:14.320 --> 40:16.640] And that's the different vibe. [40:17.280 --> 40:20.960] And so when they're all doing that, you know, it's just, it's not like they're all, [40:20.960 --> 40:22.320] they're not all giving the same thing. [40:22.400 --> 40:23.120] Yeah, you can tell it. [40:24.160 --> 40:29.600] And yeah, I will say that part of the choreo, that post chorus like a moment. [40:29.600 --> 40:29.840] Okay. [40:30.640 --> 40:33.920] I wish it was like slightly, I get what they were going for with like, [40:33.920 --> 40:37.520] it starts slow and then it's like body rolls and then it's like, I get it. [40:38.240 --> 40:40.560] But I kind of wanted it more like, we, I don't know, [40:40.560 --> 40:42.800] just like fit the music for me. [40:42.800 --> 40:43.440] Oh, totally. [40:43.440 --> 40:45.440] And doesn't make like a full impact. [40:45.440 --> 40:45.920] Oh, right. [40:45.920 --> 40:46.640] I wanted it. [40:46.640 --> 40:46.960] Yeah. [40:48.400 --> 40:50.640] But again, I think the choreo is super hard. [40:50.640 --> 40:52.400] And they did a good job performing it. [40:52.400 --> 40:52.960] Yeah. [40:52.960 --> 40:58.080] Um, they're getting much better, I think with that maturity of them just like being more natural [40:58.080 --> 40:58.640] on camera. [40:58.640 --> 40:59.760] Oh, yeah. [40:59.760 --> 41:02.960] Like each performance I watched, they, you know, they were getting different facials. [41:02.960 --> 41:05.920] They had some different, yeah, different things going on in each one. [41:05.920 --> 41:06.960] So I appreciate that. [41:07.440 --> 41:12.320] Um, so yeah, I think it was, I think it was, I don't say everybody, but Tony, [41:12.320 --> 41:15.040] I mean, there's not like any other face, but the one he's got. [41:15.840 --> 41:16.080] Okay. [41:16.080 --> 41:16.720] Other than him. [41:17.840 --> 41:18.400] Sorry, Lily. [41:18.400 --> 41:18.800] Sorry. [41:19.360 --> 41:22.480] Lily's our patreon, our patron, um, she loves him. [41:22.480 --> 41:23.280] I don't hate him. [41:23.280 --> 41:23.600] It's not. [41:23.600 --> 41:23.840] I hate it. [41:23.840 --> 41:26.480] It's just so funny because he has like this one, like stoic face, [41:26.480 --> 41:27.840] but he actually was giving face in the video. [41:27.840 --> 41:28.720] I've meant to shout him out. [41:28.720 --> 41:29.840] He was eating it up with the face. [41:29.840 --> 41:30.000] Yeah. [41:30.000 --> 41:31.120] Um, but yes. [41:31.120 --> 41:35.280] So I, I did not know what the meaning of biora was at first. [41:35.280 --> 41:38.400] Cause I just watched the choreography, but this little people. [41:39.040 --> 41:41.440] If you're watching, I've been doing it the whole time. [41:41.440 --> 41:44.640] Cause it's like a little sharp question to flow out. [41:44.640 --> 41:45.760] It is fast and it's hard. [41:45.760 --> 41:47.120] And then they switched the hand. [41:48.080 --> 41:49.840] When I saw that, I was like, no, take me out. [41:49.840 --> 41:50.880] Pay me out the dance. [41:50.880 --> 41:52.240] They put me back on the bench. [41:52.240 --> 41:55.200] Oh, like I do like how sharp the choreography is and how smooth it is. [41:55.600 --> 41:59.280] Um, and again, shout out to the choreographer for having such good musicality. [41:59.280 --> 42:04.080] Cause even though it's not like the, the dynamism is not exactly the same. [42:04.640 --> 42:08.480] Like maybe the sexy body role is more of a hit or maybe more of a chest for some other people, [42:08.480 --> 42:10.080] but the musicality is there. [42:10.080 --> 42:14.320] And I totally appreciate the choreographer for having that good musicality. [42:14.320 --> 42:16.160] And I think the choreography fits them well. [42:16.240 --> 42:18.400] Like they don't have to do too much. [42:18.400 --> 42:19.120] Either they did. [42:19.120 --> 42:23.040] They don't have to do too much for people to know like, oh, this is a, this is an asset, [42:23.040 --> 42:25.840] non-incrairie, because I want to say no other group is doing it right now. [42:25.840 --> 42:29.360] But no other group is really doing it with the whole like suit, smooth swab guy thing. [42:30.400 --> 42:31.840] Right now, cause A, they're too young. [42:32.480 --> 42:34.080] B is not what's cool right now. [42:34.080 --> 42:39.040] And C, I won't say they can't do it, but they don't have it to young. [42:39.040 --> 42:41.280] I'm just, I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I'm just saying, I'm just saying. [42:41.280 --> 42:45.120] Um, but I think each, each company has like their old style anyway. [42:45.600 --> 42:51.040] To high B, to SN to the, what style does SF9's company have, right? [42:51.040 --> 42:55.200] So luckily they don't have anything to kind of bog them down by like a reputation is just [42:55.760 --> 42:56.320] perform. [42:56.320 --> 42:57.040] Do your best. [42:57.040 --> 42:57.680] Go for it. [42:58.960 --> 43:03.040] The bridge Koyo has them dancing with each other in this winter woven way that I really like. [43:03.040 --> 43:04.000] That stood out to me. [43:04.000 --> 43:07.920] And the last chorus is different from the other west. [43:07.920 --> 43:10.880] And I was like, oh my, in this part was very clean. [43:10.880 --> 43:11.520] I will give them that. [43:11.520 --> 43:14.640] Even though I was like, this part was super clear and it's hard. [43:14.640 --> 43:16.560] So I don't know how to sit there and sing through that. [43:16.560 --> 43:19.120] And I keep making the faces at the camera and still keep performing and [43:21.360 --> 43:22.000] good to them. [43:22.000 --> 43:22.560] Yeah. [43:22.560 --> 43:22.800] Yeah. [43:23.440 --> 43:24.720] Just doesn't like that carpet line. [43:26.400 --> 43:31.360] But I conclude my notes on that because I, yeah, I'm satisfied with what I saw from them. [43:31.360 --> 43:31.600] Okay. [43:31.600 --> 43:34.160] So what's your favorite performance? [43:34.800 --> 43:35.360] The three. [43:35.920 --> 43:37.040] I'm not gonna lie to you. [43:37.040 --> 43:43.200] I watched this perform, these performers, this group and thought they're having so much fun. [43:43.920 --> 43:47.600] And the dancers are having fun and the dancers cheer with them when they're doing dance practices. [43:47.600 --> 43:52.560] So I'm gonna give it to B1A4 because even though the difficulty is not there, [43:53.520 --> 43:59.040] the believability is the chemistry is and the choreography is simple. [43:59.600 --> 44:00.640] It is what it is. [44:00.640 --> 44:04.160] People are like, right there, right there. [44:04.160 --> 44:06.560] But I think I'll be picking them because I'm attracted to them and that's not fair. [44:06.560 --> 44:06.800] So. [44:08.480 --> 44:08.720] Okay. [44:08.720 --> 44:09.040] Yeah. [44:09.040 --> 44:09.360] Fair. [44:11.280 --> 44:12.960] I think just because I'm so impressed. [44:13.040 --> 44:16.160] By the choreography, I would, I would pick SF9. [44:16.160 --> 44:19.120] I believe, I believe because each time I watched it, I noticed something different [44:19.120 --> 44:21.440] with choreography because it's just crazy. [44:21.440 --> 44:23.680] So I think I'll give it to SF9 for this one. [44:23.680 --> 44:24.160] Ballad. [44:24.160 --> 44:24.560] All right. [44:24.560 --> 44:27.200] So overall thoughts overall winner. [44:29.760 --> 44:30.480] I had to eat it for once. [44:30.480 --> 44:30.800] I'm going to be hard. [44:30.800 --> 44:31.760] Uh, yeah. [44:31.760 --> 44:32.640] You know, yeah, that's good. [44:32.640 --> 44:34.160] You add a different winner for each one. [44:34.160 --> 44:34.400] Yeah. [44:34.400 --> 44:34.880] First time. [44:34.880 --> 44:38.320] Well, I guess, I guess for me, SF9, one, two of them. [44:38.880 --> 44:39.200] Yeah. [44:39.200 --> 44:39.680] That's valid. [44:39.680 --> 44:41.280] So I'll give it to them. [44:41.280 --> 44:41.920] Yeah. [44:41.920 --> 44:45.760] I will also give SF9 because even though there's not to go retract to them, [44:45.760 --> 44:46.720] because I think all to get. [44:47.920 --> 44:50.320] Well, the reasons I've stated because they, they quote, [44:50.320 --> 44:52.480] quote, quote, quote, lost two members and still held it down. [44:53.040 --> 44:54.240] The choreography is there. [44:54.240 --> 44:55.360] The video, I don't hate. [44:56.880 --> 44:57.680] It's, it's okay. [44:57.680 --> 44:58.480] It's, it's okay. [44:58.480 --> 45:00.400] It's not like anything dynamic. [45:00.400 --> 45:03.120] Like with trauma, the chairs with this one, the rain. [45:03.120 --> 45:03.440] Okay. [45:03.440 --> 45:05.040] Maybe you could pick certain things out. [45:05.040 --> 45:07.760] So for that, I'll give it to SF9. [45:07.760 --> 45:08.480] Okay. [45:08.480 --> 45:09.280] Stational.
