Midas was a king in greek mythology who was so greedy that he asked the gid dionysos for a favor. Everything that he touches should become gold. Dionysos does that, but midas cant eat or drink now either because all food becomes gold. But there is also a greek mythology about medusa. She was so beautiful that poseidon raped her in athenas temple. To help her or to punish her athena gives her the power that everybody that she looks at becomes stone. Also the figure on the car looked quite like medusa. I think kiss of life mixed both storys in their music video
Yes, KIOF mixed the two stories, but they gave prominence to the Midas touch in the title because it represents the highlight of the song, when Belle at the end touches the statue and makes it return to human, among other things Belle is the only one in the bridge to not have snakes.
The thing about Medusa being graped and punished by Athena is not a part of Greek mythology, I'm pretty sure it's from a roman version of the myth, pls stop saying this 🙏
I believe they just entered the billboard hot 200 or something like that, which is honestly a massive achievement for a group from an unknown company😭 They’re also one of the best managed groups I’ve seen in awhile, their company obviously knows what they are doing, steadily building a strong fan base instead of giving up when the group isn’t an immediate smash hit. Also, it makes me so so happy to see the quality of this mv compared to their debut, you can see how much the group has grown
lee haein is definitely cementing herself as one of the creative directors to watch out for. since their debut there hasn’t been any bad thing lacking, the concepts were all great, and every release just keeps getting better. it’s so amazing!
Actually in 11:25 this part each lyrics reffered to each member solo song , the first girl Natty which is "Sugarcoat" and then Haneul "Play Love Games" then Julie "Kitty Cat" and Belle with "Countdown"
Last time a girl group did this cute bridge concept was way back 2018. Sunny Summer by Gfriend. But it was onomatopoeia of their names instead of song titles.
I’m not sure about who’s this MV’s director, but it was filmed in Thailand while they came for fan meeting here. All the props and shooting scenes are made by Thai company called ‘Art Camp’. They really create everything by hand sculpture which is really cool!!😊
NO WAY, THEY DIDNT WIN ONE AWARD, THEY LOOK LIKE THEYVE WORKED IN THE INDUSTRY FIR YEARS, BUT THEYRE ROOKIES, BRUH THEY R UNDERRATED AS HELL@imacapricorn5172
@@trishagnimukherjee90 All credits to the company's efforts for producing these wonderful songs. At this point I am doubting whether they are a small company.
@@sahana12344 srsly. I am sure kiss of life will also make there agency popular bc the agency is srsly producing such good music with every member shining in there own way.
the confidence of this group to be called kiss of life with the intention of providing a breath of fresh air to kpop and delivering on that concept. unmatched. i’m so hoping this comeback was their big break and they become universally loved because i enjoyed the music from their debut and born to be xx a lot
their team has acted like they're a huge group since predebut. everything has been high quality with great concepts, planning, visual and performance direction. their team is literally amazing. idk about their company specifically, but their team cares so much about them and capitalizes so well on their talents and appeal. they really built a great brand identity that reflects their group name so well. i'm pretty sure in the next few weeks, they'll release another behind the scenes documentary which will share the visions of the group's creative director, mv director, choreographer, stylist, etc.
they messed up with their previous group, but the company is supporting Kiss of Life so good (prob bc of Patty's popularity boost during pre debut era). The company's previous group flopped and only got 800 album sales in a year because they failed to become popular in Korea. Kiss of Life is doing much much better in Korea and already has 180,000 album sales (pretty good for a small company)! can't wait to see what they'll do next.
@@bb4251Don't say Hot Issue "failed". They just had one comeback and were doing okay for a group coming out of nowhere, literally as the first group of a new company.
The story of King Midas is basically he gets to have one wish- he chose to be able to turn whatever he touched into gold to be richer. Turns out, food, water and people also turn into gold. At the very end, he climbs into a river and begs for forgiveness and gets it. I think the music video managed to reflect the story really well :)
Its my first time watching kiss of life. I only have one question. Y r they so underrated, they need to get the fame. Im in love with this Edit: thankyou for all the likes guys I'm loving kiss of life in my playlist.
@@deyleigh6487they are not 😅 they just debuted recently but are really famous and appreciated. The thing is their company is not one of the big 3 So they will struggle winning awards
I’ve been a fan of Kiss of Life since their debut! Glad to see them here! They are the real deal…we get behind the scenes recording and they sing live on shows…big fan!
a lot of the scenes, such as natty on the motorcycle, are references to britney spears mvs! specifically toxic if i'm not wrong, and they even have a lyric that goes "baby i'm so toxic" the nostalgia was real with this song while adding their own kiss of life flavor
KISS OF LIFE fandom name : KISSY. KISS OF LIFE MVs/Music Videos (IN RELEASE ORDER) (Including PRE-DEBUT Solo MVs) (UPDATED) : 1. 'Sugarcoat (NATTY Solo)' MV (PRE-DEBUT). 2. 'Countdown (BELLE Solo)' MV (PRE-DEBUT). 3. 'Kitty Cat (JULIE Solo)' MV (PRE-DEBUT). 4. 'Play Love Games (HANEUL Solo)' MV (PRE-DEBUT). 5. 'Bye My Neverland' MV (PRE-DEBUT). 6. 'Shhh' Music Video (DEBUT). 7. 'Bad News' Music Video. 8. 'Nobody Knows' Music Video. 9. 'Midas Touch' Music Video.
After the second chorus, they all are actually mentioning their solo songs: Haneul- Play Love Games Julie- Kitty Cat Natty- Sugarcoat Belle- Countdown Btw thank you for the reaction🫶🫶
This MV is really capturing that “expensive taste” aspect that I feel really gels well with the concept of, it’s my will to turn you to stone or shower you with love, either way, you’ll be addicted to me.
I recommend their debut album. Every song has a MV and the story is connected like you're watching a mini-series. 1. Sugarcoat - natty 2. countdown - belle 3. kitty cat - julie 4. play love game - haneul 5. Bye My neverland - kiss of life 6. shhh - kiss of life And I recommend their 2nd album born to be xx as one of the best K-pop albums of all time for me. The song was so good that the album born to be xx was nominated for Album of the Year by KMA awards ceremony that is called Korean Grammy Awards Because they were selected by judges and experts in the Korean music industry.
I’m not an expert on mythology, but to me it looks like this mv is a combination of the story of King Midas, the guy who had everything he touched turn to gold, and the story of Medusa, who turns everything she looks at to stone
They were at Billboard 200. This is what you called underrated? They are definitely getting the attention they deserve. Only thing that is lacking is a music show win.
i LOVE the greek mythology references in this mv!! theres midas (obviously), but also mixed with medusa! whatever midas touches turns to gold, whatever looks into medusa's eyes turn to stone theres an arachne reference i think, in the beginning with natty and the web and also i think belle's set with the peacock seat gives off hera vibes; and julie's during the second verse and the beginning remind me of aphrodite i think midas touch means that whatever/whoever sees kiss of life will get the "midas touch"; theyll be so shocked theyre frozen forever
I've been following you for a while and I truly want to express how grateful I am with this video reaction in special since I support these girls and I've been so excited for this comeback, thank you so so much for liking and teaching on how the MV was probably made, we appreciate your knowledge and your good vibes about the song. Truly thank you for this video that even if you don't think so it works as a some type of promotion of some kind since you're a really popular TH-camr so you're making new people get to know kiss of life and we as kissys truly appreciate it! Love your content! Take care! ❤️🔥
Yes yes let’s go Jordan! I’m so happy that you finally had watched KIOF they’re such an underrated group so I hope you can check them out more in the future 🫶🏼💕💕💕
This music video it made by some company of Thailand, im not sure adout the name too. But the team that edit and made this music video is the with 4EVE (Thai girl group band) you can check out some 4eve music video name Vroom Vroom.
The first time I saw this MV I just thought it was a work of art - absoloutley insane! Definitely one of the best kpop mvs! Also glad that KIOF is finally getting the recognition they deserve :)
6:07 on the boy turned to stone's chest it is written "doppelganger". At the end of the MV, all of the stone statues watching them are broken and remains the only original and real boy. I'm not sure what does it mean at all but I don't see people talking about that.
First of all thank you for reacting midas touch, an incredible song! And I higlhy recommend you "YOUNG POSSE (영파씨) 'XXL' MV" and after that "YOUNG POSSE (영파씨) 'XXL' (No CG Ver.) MV", I think you will enjoy that
This was a very pleasant surprise - a reaction to my favorite new group on my favorite reaction channel! It's a very fun video and I now I appreciate it even more. Their previous ones are very different, much more story based - you should check them out when you get a chance (just make sure to watch them in release order). Go KIOF!
This MV was shooting at Thailand (Natty's home💓) so the mv producer was gonna be all Thai teams and They doing great job for KISS OF LIFE PS. Sorry foy my weak english 😭
I AM A GREEK MYTH NERD LET ME ATTEMPT SOME EXPLANATIONS. Unfortunately I’m not super familiar with the members so I can’t name names. ANYWAYS, the Midas Touch refers to king Midas, someone who was favored by the gods. He asked Dionysus to give him the ability to turn anything he touches into gold. This goes about as well as you think. He can’t eat because everything turns to gold, and the breaking point is when he accidentally touches his daughter and she turns into gold. He has to bring her to undo the spell and he also asks for the Magic to be removed from him. The blonde spider lady: gorgeous, and probably a reference to Arachne. She was a talented weaver, and challenged Athena, the goddess of weaving among other things, to a contest. Again, this did not go well. She lost and Athena turned her into a spider for her insolence (this is where arachnids and arachnophobia comes from). Snakes: Medusa. A former priestess of Athena but did the deed with Poseidon in her temple. Some legends say it was consensual, others say it’s not. In the former versions, Athena curses her so that anyone she looks at turns to stone. In the latter, Athena gives her the ability to turn people to stone so she won’t be hurt again.
The eyeballs and peacock motifs for that one dress: probably a reference to Hera, queen of the gods. Her signature animal is a peacock. The myth is that she had a guard who was guarding a tree(? I think?) and the guy had one hundred eyes, so he had fifty eyes open when he slept to keep constant watch. Someone (probably Zeus it’s always Zeus) wanted the tree gone or was jealous or something and he or someone he sent kills one hundred eyes dude. Hera is sad and turns him into a peacock (or makes peacocks a thing?) which is why they have so many “eyes” on their feathers.
The heads on pikes: probably stretching but could be a reference to the Trojan war. The end of two great civilizations brought down for a woman who wanted nothing to do with it all. Moral of the whole MV story: ✨women✨
the video is made/directed by Digipedi and their team! they've also done a lot of Loona's videos and also recently did one for Birth by ARTMS, which also has some crazy transitions.
Omg, I have been following you for a while and I secretly wish you would react to KIOF (I only wish bcs u seem to react only big company artist) I’m so happy you reacted to KIOF ❤
What I took from this MV is that the girls are suppose to be Medusa, all the snakes in the MV and lines like "I warned you with a single touch boy, try to run away, you can't escape me anyways" and later on they sing "Watch out The gaze that changed in an instant". When they look each other straight in the eyes, the guy turns into stone and Natty later on sings, when he's unconscious on her bike, "Baby I'm so toxic, The more dangerous the more fun it's alright"
Midas was a king in greek mythology who was so greedy that he asked the gid dionysos for a favor. Everything that he touches should become gold. Dionysos does that, but midas cant eat or drink now either because all food becomes gold. But there is also a greek mythology about medusa. She was so beautiful that poseidon raped her in athenas temple. To help her or to punish her athena gives her the power that everybody that she looks at becomes stone. Also the figure on the car looked quite like medusa. I think kiss of life mixed both storys in their music video

I AM A GREEK MYTH NERD LET ME ATTEMPT SOME EXPLANATIONS.
Unfortunately I’m not super familiar with the members so I can’t name names.
ANYWAYS, the Midas Touch refers to king Midas, someone who was favored by the gods. He asked Dionysus to give him the ability to turn anything he touches into gold. This goes about as well as you think. He can’t eat because everything turns to gold, and the breaking point is when he accidentally touches his daughter and she turns into gold. He has to bring her to undo the spell and he also asks for the Magic to be removed from him.
The blonde spider lady: gorgeous, and probably a reference to Arachne. She was a talented weaver, and challenged Athena, the goddess of weaving among other things, to a contest. Again, this did not go well. She lost and Athena turned her into a spider for her insolence (this is where arachnids and arachnophobia comes from).
Snakes: Medusa. A former priestess of Athena but did the deed with Poseidon in her temple. Some legends say it was consensual, others say it’s not. In the former versions, Athena curses her so that anyone she looks at turns to stone. In the latter, Athena gives her the ability to turn people to stone so she won’t be hurt again.
The eyeballs and peacock motifs for that one dress: probably a reference to Hera, queen of the gods. Her signature animal is a peacock. The myth is that she had a guard who was guarding a tree(? I think?) and the guy had one hundred eyes, so he had fifty eyes open when he slept to keep constant watch. Someone (probably Zeus it’s always Zeus) wanted the tree gone or was jealous or something and he or someone he sent kills one hundred eyes dude. Hera is sad and turns him into a peacock (or makes peacocks a thing?) which is why they have so many “eyes” on their feathers.
The heads on pikes: probably stretching but could be a reference to the Trojan war. The end of two great civilizations brought down for a woman who wanted nothing to do with it all.
Moral of the whole MV story: ✨women✨
The girls are all representative of different greek figures! Julie is Aphrodite, Natty is Arachne, Belle is Hera, and Haneul is King Midas!
the video is made/directed by Digipedi and their team! they've also done a lot of Loona's videos and also recently did one for Birth by ARTMS, which also has some crazy transitions.

personally i NEED you to react to any Young Posse's MV because everything on their MVs feels like having a fever dream
React to XXL,please!
I'm begging youuu
It's my favorite mv
IM SO GOAD UR REACTING TO KIOF THEYRE SO GOOD THEY NEED MORE RECOGNITION
What I took from this MV is that the girls are suppose to be Medusa, all the snakes in the MV and lines like "I warned you with a single touch boy, try to run away, you can't escape me anyways" and later on they sing "Watch out The gaze that changed in an instant".
When they look each other straight in the eyes, the guy turns into stone and Natty later on sings, when he's unconscious on her bike, "Baby I'm so toxic, The more dangerous the more fun it's alright"
Hell yeah QUEEN OF LIFE
This is what I'm waiting for your content!! Kiss Of Life is!!!
Jordan check out their debut and first cb
