Bon Voyage Lyrics 1:34
Bon Voyage M/V 18:18
I had a recommendation to react to Dreamcatcher's so today I'll be uploading 2 videos on them. This video will be Bon Voyage while the other song will be Chase Me. They were technically 1 video but I didn't want to make it that long so I split them into 2. This is technically pt 2 of that reaction.
Have a good day!

Thankyou for reacting to Dreamcatcher! If you feel like another double react you could time it with the comeback called Justice on the 10th and continue the story from Chase Me with Goodnight. :)
Also a suggestion, maybe do the lyric video after the mv to experience the full impact of the mv?
Yes, They're a rock fusion group, but explore many genres and combincations in their B-sides.
Thanks for checking out Dreamcatcher!
To give some context on Bon voyage, it's the third song in their Apocalypse trilogy. This trilogy is all about the damage humanity has done to our home (Earth) through our destructive nature's. Specifically, pollution and war. The first two songs in the trilogy cover these topics.
So with that context, Bon voyage is about humanity having to leave Earth to let it heal from the damage we've done. My favorite line in the song is the pre-chorus. "Every cell in me is drawn to you. Even if we're a little apart, we're together'. Even if we leave Earth, gravity still pulls us back.
Dreamcatchers core sound is Rock/Metal infused KPop but their discography is incredibly diverse. While all their title tracks have that core sound, their b-sides have EDM, Jazz, funk, reggae, rock, metal, pop, r&b, and much more throughout.
They have a comeback on July 10th which is the second part of the Versus duology. The new EP, Virtuous, will have the title track Justice and will be a follow up to their Villains EP with the title OOTD.
As I mentioned in the other video, they group in Series. Bonvoyage is part 3 of the 3 part Apocalypse series. Maison, Vision, Bonvoyage
You'll find while it can work as a love song between 2 people, in this case it's a love song from Humanity to Mother Nature, where we need to say goodbye to the earth is it can recover from the damage we've caused it.
To properly interpret this song, you also need some background. In short: Bonvoyage is the last installment of the Apocalypse trilogy and is basically a love letter to mother earth while the song is based around the concept of passive ecological restoration. But as this is a DreamCatcher song, the message and the lyrics can also be applied to a generic relationship where you love the other one but you still hurt him/her and you must forcibly distance yourself a little to let the other one heal.
The Apocalypse Trilogy discusses how Humanity is destroying the planet. Maison, Vision and Bonvoyage are the three title tracks in order. Maison is about destroying nature, global warming, pollution. Vision is a call to arms to start acting, also about wars while Bonvoyage is to let the earth heal on its own. In Maison Dreamcatcher arrives to the planet as some stronger external force (goddesses, heroines) to make humanity listen and also to fight for us but now they are leaving, to let us heal on our own. Also marks the beginning of a new era (while DreamCatcher announced their contract renewal and also started a new storyline) hence the tarot card 6 of Swords that represents gradually leaving behind a complicated past.
Most images of Dreamcatcher videos should be interpreted as being symbolic, like the horse - butterfly as nature (while butterfly also for change - rebirth, similar to the blooming flower) , the dove that is protected is freedom etc. This departure is also contradictory as you are leaving behind something you love, but you must do. Hence the line at 20:07 "is it a mischief of distorted fate" while the image is basically split into two, the upside is reality, the downside is the celebrated dream you are hoping for.
Anyway I hope this helps putting this song and M/V into context and it does help a little if you see Maison and Vision first, although it is still abstract at parts.
"Bon Voyage" is the 3rd and final part of the Apocalypse trilogy, which is about the destruction of the environment by humanity. The members have mentioned that it is about giving nature a break. Any encounter between human beings always has separation attached to it as well, just as death is a part of life. SuA also said that the fluffy floating thing that Dami summons from her painting is a cell, representing nature. It has been named "Celly" and is adorable, right?
My dark mind believes that they are saying "Have a good trip" to humanity, since we are well on our way of wiping ourselves out. It's like a breakup between humanity and the earth. Once humanity is gone, nature gets the break it needs and the circle will begin again. For me, the key to understanding the lyrics is that they are singing as human beings, not as a single person. And they are singing to nature, confessing their love and the realization that we are not good for nature and that it probably resents us. It could also be the other way round (them singing as mother nature to humanity).
SuA jumping out after the dove seem to represent their desire for peace.
There are still many things I don't know. For example, why are all three titles in French. 😉 (And why are there 3 Damis with 7 shadows...)
The story of the MV seems to be that the rest of humanity has sheltered away under force fields after the apocalypse. This gives nature time to heal.
Musically I can already say this is one of their best songs for me. The chorus slaps hard, and the variations between heavy and slow are just beautiful. It has emotion and impact at the same time. Putting JiU's sweet voice together with an acoustic guitar is simply genius.

Dreamcatcher is basically their own genre lol like there’s just NOT other kpop groups who made rock/metal influence a core part of their identity. And for a long time, that made Dreamcatcher a black sheep in the industry-they hold the record for girl group that took the longest to achieve their first music show win, i believe. But they’ve stayed strong and had a random and company has always believed in them, and we have so much amazing music as a result!
Siyeon is one of the best vocalists in kpop, period. She’s a true vocal chameleon and can literally blow out a mic without trying 😂 that’s the magic of Dreamcatcher: literally any of the members could probably be a main vocalist, dancer, or rapper in another group. So you know the ones who actually hold those positions IN Dreamcatcher are on another level.
Bon Voyage is the ending of a trilogy about environmentalism. So it’s kind of a breakup song for the Earth: recognizing that we’re hurting our home and the only way for it to heal might be for us to leave. So we ask the Earth to wish us Bon Voyage-a good journey, until we reunite.
When they sing “I Love You” they included the sign language gesture into their choreo.
Siyeon (pronounced She-yon) is their Main Vocalist. Yes, other groups tend to lean more what I would call Hip Hop. Often I call their style of singing Sassy Singing. Those groups tend to lean more to almost synth style vocals and sometimes too far with autotune.
Dreamcatcher has 3 official rappers that appear in different combinations for different songs. Dami is the main rapper. Others are SuA and Gahyeon.
Dreamcatcher is my top favorite K-pop group. Thanks.
dreamcatcher \:D/
you picked the wrong group to try to interpret lyrics in isolation lol. as others mentioned it's part of a themed trilogy so if you had some context it would help. if you just look at the lyrics without the context of the trilogy, you can say the song is about leaving someone on good terms. in the context of the apocalypse trilogy, it's about them waiting for a right day to leave when we can take care of ourselves without their help.
That... would be Celly.
