The pronunciation of "yoon" in her name Soyoon is the same as it is in Yoongi's name. And "So" is similar to the English word "so." She explained that "Smoke Sprite" refers to an effect in comics where people disappear in a puff of smoke while exploding like a bomb. She wanted to express the feeling of deja vu she feels while standing on the boundary of dreams, fantasy and reality. Soyoon is the lead singer, songwriter, and guitarist of the rock band Se So Neon, which means "new kids" (like BTS/Bangtan Sonyeondan, they also have "sonyeon" in their name, just spelled differently and used in a gender-neutral context). Soyoon formed Se So Neon in 2016 at the age of 18. RM has been sharing the band's music on social media since 2017, the year the band debuted. In 2019 Soyoon presented BTS with the Song of the Year Award at the Korean Music Awards and admitted that her heart was pounding when BTS walked on stage but she had to look cool and calm because she's a rock musician 😅 In 2022 Soyoon attended J-Hope's Jack in the Box listening party and got pics with J-Hope and Jimin. Also that same year RM posted a pic on Instagram of him watching Se So Neon perform at the Seoul Jazz Festival and the bassist Hyunjin got excited and commented "Hyung it's me" because he was on stage in RM's photo 😆 Soyoon also provided backing vocals on RM's song Still Life. After Indigo was released, Soyoon posted a photo on her Instagram story of RM in her studio, with her holding an autographed copy of the Indigo album that was addressed to her 💜
YES, Thank you for pointing out the mixing thing for the last chorus, because I was thinking exactly the same thing - Yes I love this song BUT they could have added just a couple more decibels to RM for the last harmonized chorus ☺💜
I listened to the other 2 MV So YoON has before this one. This is much more higher than the others, I would love to hear RM on those tracks, which btw are more suggestive in my opinion. But I agree it’s an interesting sound from RM and also I would’ve like to hear him more in the chorus. I hope we can have a live version someday.
You should check out her live performances, she has so much charisma! Lots of fan boys and fan girls! Also, I just learned that her fandom name is Boogers. Not sure if this is correct, but it is what I understood, and I think it's so funny!
lol! i watched it this morning and my first thought was " man I think Jim's gonna like this one!" lol I've been following you for too long i think lol!
I totally agree with you about RM’s voice getting lost in the harmonization. I can barely hear him, which is disappointing. There is a live version of this song that sounds so much better.
I'm BTS Army and I've been watching all of the members solo projects. For this song, I was leaning a bit more to the visuals. Trying to figure out the story. We're going deep, real deep. A sprite is a supernatural entity in European mythology. They are often depicted as fairy-like creatures or as an ethereal entity. The sprite is an archer and has the bow and arrow trained directly in front of So!YoON and hits her in the chest like a target. I found this or it found me. So!YoON! (황소윤) 'Smoke Sprite' (feat. RM of BTS) MV Behind Film. It's only 4:29 still you might get something out of it. I wish I could ask So!YoOn! where the visuals were going. I'm glad you brought up the music. I agree that it's too bad RM didn't sing a bit higher or louder so the harmy would be there. I think unless he's rapping, he's soft spoken. Thanks for your reaction.
Berha I read your cooment. Thank you so much Berha because you educated me about the story behind Smoke Sprite. I didn't know about the rest, either. When RM's Indigo was released, I went through all of the artists that he included on his album. Some of his Insta stories, he'll point out artsits and the songs that are on his playlist so I'll go looking for them.
I THOUGHT YOU WOULD LIKE MUSE omg I’m so exited nobody Ik but my dad likes Muse I actually got to see them in Seattle with my parents it was my first concert!!!
This my first time hearing So Yoon singing in English. She's like a mix of Sinead OConnor with Jimi Hendrix. I've been a fan for awhile. She might've been doing that ending guitar.
This is so cool. I think they are matching each other so well. I really buy into the story. Very sexy. I fits RM to be more indie and artistic. I really think that is something he wants to explore more and I love it. By the way check out her MV "Bad" too. .....And Yes! the song is about s*x.
Yeah it a subtle layer. I think it’s because of all the sharp effects on the female vocals. If she stopped using them half way through the song it might have been to jarring.

omg thank you for the explanation!! i’ve been scouring youtube to find an interview for an explanation of smoke sprite 😭🔫
@@TheSabMM Soyoon talks about it more in her interview with Vogue Korea. There are translations on Twtr.
She's the guitarist. In addition to vocals. This is her solo effort the rest of her band is in military service

I love Silver Sun Pickups and Muse, too! I really love this song! Her voice is amazing and RM's lines are so sexy! I can't stop listening to this!
love this song! her voice is so unique!
check out her band SE SO NEON if you're interested

👏👏👏👍👍👍💜💜💜🤓
Great beat! The only thing I have to criticize is them singing together snd RM's voice is not heard at all.
Yeah it a subtle layer. I think it’s because of all the sharp effects on the female vocals. If she stopped using them half way through the song it might have been to jarring.
