When I see their popularity in Korea, I totally understand why they don't have a lightstick. Maybe, with a little more confidence in selling them to foreign fans they'll do it, but it probably needs another successfull release.
I truly think the production team did a good job with what they were given but it feels like the budget was still smaller than previous music videos. Do you agree? Did Cube give a smaller budget or was it due to the COVID-19 restrictions? What do you guys think? CORRECTION: I thought CLC's last EP "No. 1" was released Spring 2019. I googled it and it came out in JANUARY of 2019. So it has been 1 year and 8 months, nearing 2 years!
clc is so criminally underrated, not even only domestically but also internationally which sucks even more. heck, they're even underrated by their own company!! cube doesn't deserve them and i just hope for *once* in their career cube does them justice for their next comeback, before it's too late and they decide to pull the plugs. clc deserves so much better i'm sad
They were underrated but I think they got a lot of recognition in Helicopter like I was suprised with the amount of views they got in Helicopter. Yes they are still underrappreciated but they are starting to get recognition already just like Dreamcatcher
@@soirann102 and that's great but it's still so upsetting that they're literally 5 years into the game and barely get constant support :/ i really hope you're right and they get more constant recognition from now on!!
We all should fly to cube entertainment and rally outside for cube to send clc on queendom season 2. Unfortunately it's not easy for an older group to gain immense popularity suddenly because people don't look back at older groups but only look forward to newer debut groups and clc is missing out on lot of the newer kpop fans who mostly follow groups in 4th gen. I think only a popular show can catapult CLC into becoming a household name in Korea. And that's the most important, because internationally they have a good enough fanbase but domestically they are struggling badly that's why they never trend in music charts and their comebacks don't chart well, leading to less exposure to korean kpop fans, lesser album sales and it even affects their music show wins, which even if international fans vote really well they lose on the trophies because they have very low points for MV views, digital sales in Korea...
@@neotani6202 that is not wise although I know you are joking. We have huge representative fanclubs that constantly and politely send letters to cube to request and ask for clc. Cube has a change in management. You can say that this single is testing water after they rebranded clc. With low budget yet still succeeding at this length, there would be enough funds and assurance for the company to keep clc and polish them into gems. The logo is quite mature so we can wait for the strong dominant female type concept to come up. Clc might join queendom season two. Who would be better candidates other then them. With cube current effort we have a slight chance. We just have to make sure to push continually. And pray that more korean fans love strong dominant female concept
I noticed Yeeun’s stage presence this era has vastly improved. Watching Devil and No stages in comparison makes it even more obvious. Good Girl really did boost her up a lot and I’m so glad. Their first Mnet performance is also my new favorite stage.
To me she's always been this fantastic since many eras ago, it's just that many comebacks weren't focused on her. 'Devil' for example was a comeback focused on the vocal line, so she obviously didn't have much chance to do much. Just my pov.
@Letícia It really is. PD was getting accused of hating a group just because he hadn’t reacted to a music video. People need to learn to be respectful. This video apparently was corrupted.
I agree with a lot of what you’re saying here PD. When I first watched the mv I thought it was a step up in budget until I realized its 2 main sets and a few individual small sets. They really tried to get as much as possible out of the LED set. Different colors, strobes, drop the lights so the girls are between them. Add mirrors. But yeah it was a bit disappointing. Like 1 more set would have made it feel totally different. The good news is that the mv reached 10M in less than 2 days and is now at 31M, by far their best. Also the physical album for the single tripled their previous best first week sales. They trended #1 on twitter at release. Got 6th on Billboard and grew the fan base. So hopefully Cube sees the growth and invests more into them.
There's something pleasantly familiar about the song, something powerful and gently nostalgic? It's not super musically unique or complex, but it just scratches this itch for "anthem-style" songs that makes me feel so pumped and hyped. The music video is also absolutely gorgeous, I feel like the set budget was more limited but the light effects made it seem a lot more expensive and thought-out, and those oooutfits! I was also pleasantly surprised about the line distribution because I felt like Sorn didn't get much attention, but girl just be busy eating those intense ad-libs towards the end hahah. I wasn't too excited by "Devil", but this one, uhhh, this one will be on repeat for a while.
Yea I completely agree with you. It's a great song in my opinion not over the top but powerful enough. Also I love listening to their diverse vocals, seungyeon, eunbin, sorn and seunghee especially.
just how I felt :) and also their physical album is beautiful. It may not seem like so but i feel Cube put great effort in this comeback... the song has done great also, so im happy for now as long as this is just the beginning of greater things to come!! CLC always ❤️
I didn’t request but I was waiting for someone to really say how low budget this was even for cube. Covid really had nothing to do with the low quality of the mv, especially compared to other things cube has put put this year. Cheshires did a lot to support the girls and broke a lot of their personal records but this that damned blue box that isn’t putting in the work. Their little rebrand video had more dedication than the mv
I loved the MV! It was refreshing and eye-catching. You don`t always need an enormous budget (e.g. Blackpink) in order to produce a good MV. Also, low budget doesn`t equal low quality, this is a flawed logic.
@@z.k.7330 true, BLACKPINK's debut with whistle is a mostly pink backdrop, a car, laundry shop, bikes, plants, a hallway but the song is really good, one of the best in their discography
@@z.k.7330 I'm not saying you can't like it, I'm glad some people do. But as a chesire and someone who has been a fan and supported the girls since 2015 this is beyond disappointing. When you actually look at the footage that is in the video, it's all reused , like pd said. they couldn't even give them different sets to stand on. It comes off like a dance version mv more than an actual music video. It's a boring music video and that's why it lacks quality, not because it isn't pretty to look at but because of the bare minimum effort that was put into it.
I'm not going to mince words: it's bs that this isn't an EP. It's been almost TWO years (holy crap i had to google that and thought it would be 1.5 years)
@@formoftherapy I believe they used this release as a final judgment of whether they would be worth to continue investing in. The track is breaking all of their own records in terms of views and sales so I'm very hopeful for their future! I really believe we'll get more music soon.
everyone thought same when they released hobgoblin or black dress or no but cube is still treating them badly in my opinion they r the best and well balanced group cube has right now if they had capitalized with clc way back in 2017 they would have made millions and millions of profit from clc but they had one plan debut new girl group and push them as hard as possible and forget that they even have another girl group now they r already a 5 yr old group but still they don't have a full album lightstick and cube will also probably won't give them a world tour ever
@@shashwotmarsani8417 yeah, i think clc need to be managed by a company like big hit, where they only have one group to focus on as clc has too much talent(like bts) and need a lot of attention by the company.
The reason you may have received so many requests for this mv may also be the that due to CLC’s lower popularity, fans hope for a reaction/review for exposure and not because they think the mv is particular impressive 😔
@@formoftherapy I thought so too! When I first got into Kpop and I stumbled upon CLC's Black dress I thought they were as big as some of the more pouplar ggs like Twice or Red Velvet because their songs are so good! Sadly, not many people appreciate them
@@formoftherapy I agree, it's the mismanagement. Every single time CLC had a successful song, Cube either gave them a long hiatus or gave them a cutesy song, which always flopped for them and made people lose interest again...
@@sonata652 If you said they had successful song for international, the answer is yes. But if it means Korea, then answer is no. It's not about cutesy song or long hiatus made them flop, it's just Korean don't pay any attention on them or listen to their songs. And a lot of groups face these problems except for groups from big three.
@@k8010300101 While that is also true, Cube could have grasped onto that and still earned money through CLC. Look at Kard for example, they focus solely on their international fanbase. The cutesy songs and long hiatus made the international audience forget about them and instead focus on other groups that were active.
Sadly this IS Cube undercutting CLC, however as much as I have my problems with the company I have to defend them in this case, why you may ask? People really overestimate how profitable CLC is, a lot of my friends who aren't even really kpop fans know CLC and in general if you really think about it internationally they are one of the biggest groups having 30M views in two weeks always being in top 10 spotify listeners and charting high on itunes worldwide and digital billboard, you would think with all that CLC sells pretty well right? Well surprisingly for some reason still unknown to man kind they don't, CLC is one of the worst selling girl groups out there. Here is the thing, when people talk about CLC's mistreatment they compare them to groups like Lovelyz, Weki Meki, WJSN, Dreamcatcher etc there is this conception that CLC is sort of above them because they are much more "popular" however how much do you think they sale? Well to give you a random number Dreamcatcher's last comeback with BOCA just surpassed 50k sales, pretty much all Lovelyz and Weki Meki albums sell around 30k-60k do you know how much CLC sells? Well just to give an idea (and keep in mind CLC is older than all of those groups) their best sellers right now No.1 and Helicopter are roughly touching 15k.....yeah it's THAT BAD all other CLC albums barely touch 5k-10k sales, it's too low and add to that the fact that CLC is never really invited to award shows or festivals and have literally one to zero brand promotions their revenue really is low. CLC isn't making money, I don't even think they make enough to at least pay the debt of each comeback so honestly I am happy this is not as high budget I can only imagine the situation the girls are in right now needing to pay CUBE I don't want that gap to get bigger. PLEASE BUY CLC MUSIC! They need it, I mean things are looking up with Helicopter being just a single album but already doing better than No.1 so there's that but please be mindful of what you are asking cheshire, as much as I would love it we can't ask thousands thousands of dollars from CUBE that they aren't getting back. (And YES cube IS in many ways at fault for not promoting and managing CLC better however I still feel like even with that my point still stands that people don't realize in how bad of a place CLC is in terms of budget)
This is correct. Even with "Hobgoblin" which is considered the turning point when it comes to CLC getting much needed attention, did not chart at all in Korea. It charted on Billboard's World Songs chart and did very well there but not in their homeland. The last time a song of theirs charted on the Gaon Digital charts was "No Oh Oh" back in 2016 and it only got to 144.
@@MrSuperjam789 Exactly, and something that people don't know is that Crystyle is one of their worst selling albums and Free'sm which came after and people say "ruined" their career sold better, CLC 's story is really complicated honestly.
@@aandreaapardo Yeah, and No. 1, their last EP, did pretty well for their standards but it's been a long wait until "Helicopter." It's a shame, they're a good group but due to misfortune and mismanagement, they never got their due. I hope they don't disband when their 7 year contract comes up in 2022.
during a live sorn said that she was grateful for having a comeback this year cause the girls were scared of not getting one in 2020. So idk about a pre release single situation :(
In my opinion Cube is just testing the waters with CLC this comeback. I don't know if you've noticed but this comeback has been promoted way better than both ME and Devil together. The new CEO of Cube has been making a lot of changes and this has been very beneficial for Cube's groups including CLC. The new CEO really likes CLC, and he keeps up with all of their achievements and even social media. Let's hope that Cube is letting CLC comeback in early 2021 with a full album or at least a mini album. CLC have been breaking a lot of their own records this comeback, their sales improved, high views and even charting very high on Billboard. They lack domestic support which is definitely a big weakness of CLC's success. Hoping for them to join Queendom season 2, to boost their domestic fanbase. It certainly helped groups like Lovelyz, Oh my Girl and CLC's juniors (G)-IDLE as well.
i always look forward to your reactions. I just love getting deeper info about music and video production, it helps me appreciate certain songs more now that i see all the technical and intricate details
The rapper line is really awesome especially the bass sound from Eunbin. Her lines fit her this time. I really agree with what PD said and really hope that CLC can get more attention especially in Korea. CLC doesn’t bring huge profit so that they may get fewer comeback in view of Cube especially compared with Gidle. And I understand what Cube thinks.
the reason why they are giving so much to Yeeun because she was in a group called 'good girl' in a reality show with a bunch of idols like hyoyeon from snsd,jiwoo from kard and soloists like ailee ,jamie,cheetah ,anyway i am happy for her and for the group that they are starting to gain more recognition because they are as good as the famous girl groups with badass and girl crush concepts .
I loved your thoughts!! I immediately clicked when I saw you had uploaded your thoughts on Helicopter. They need an EP or even a studio album at this point!!
thank you PD - always nice to have a critical view on MVs btw, I am sorry to read that people went to the point of harrassing you with their requests I mean, this is “Form of Therapy”, so people should really chill :)
yeeun was super shy on good girl in the beginning but her confidence in her skills grew as time went on. she was there to not only promote herself as the top-tier rapper she is but also as a member of clc. she was 100% there to promote clc which I found so amazing. chesires were happy to see yeeun get sm attention in helipcoper, its great to see cube capitalize off the popularity of yeeun..
Interesting input. For me I thought this was a step up from their previous MVs. It does seem like there has been a slight increase in budget with this but yes still not good enough in terms of who CLC is. Some budget may have been allocated to the physical album because I think it is their most beautiful albums to date along with gorgeous individual member posters. The 2 Yeeun rap verses was killer! Seunghee being center during the chorus is amazing as well! Surprised to see Eunbin having many short rap verses was cool. So I agree with everything you said about the line distribution. Sorn, Yujin, and Elkie definitely had more lines during Me and Devil but what is so great about CLC is how they rotate and giving each member their own era to shine. Even though Sorn had little lines, when she does sing, it hits you hard! Also the ad libs from Sorn and Seunghee was amazing! Not sure if Elkie did any ad libs. Also 100% agree how Cube have been managing CLC so poorly. CLC were on a almost year hiatus not once but TWICE! From Devil to Helicopter and Black Dress to No. No studio full album yet. Took 5 years to give them official colors. The list just goes on. However, things are starting to look promising. It seems like Cube finally giving CLC the attention they deserve. They got a logo change. They got a visual film. They dropped "For Cheshire" videos. An English MV version (even though 90% of literally the same). There was like an advertisement project that was release like a couple days ago too! CLC have broken all their previous records of MV views, albums sales, and social media followings. So I really hope Cube continues this momentum with CLC. I do not want them to disappear again for another year. Hopefully more Korean fans will start to notice what a great group they have been missing out. The journey never ends.
THANK YOU! i seriously thought i was the only one saying this video was low budget! they still slayed it of course, but i was expecting more from the mv if i’m being honest.
It would have been good to also talk about CLC’s struggles and that cube invests what they can get from them. Truth is they barely sell so they get low budget. It makes sense.
I loved this video talking honestly about your thoughts and concerns. I was one of them that didn't really see the flaws in the music video until you pointed that out and I think that is interesting and refreshing. Ty
yess i was waiting for your reaction to clc. these girls slays every damn time and even tho their mvs are not that much high budget they can make the best out of it. cube doesn’t give them much and that makes me sad we were waiting an album but obviously i was happy and gave them my whole support🤍
When I watched this MV I immediately thought it looked pretty low budget and wanted you to react to it. Glad to hear your opinions and insights as always!
Wow immediate thumbs up from me. You said it all so perfectly. Yeeun did learn a lot form Good Girl btw. You gotta watch her come up because its wonderful to see what she brought to this comeback. Even got a writing nod. I know you are not hating on the production team. I'm sure the staff close to CLC is great BUT whoever makes the big calls with budgets, mvs, styling, and before recent scheduling/booking (we'll see how long the improvement lasts). If you go through all of CLC's mv's they are all so confine, limited, unimaginative (besides Hobgoblin i guess). It becomes really noticeable when you like another cube group and see all they get vs what CLC gets. COVID can't be an excuse when Idle just dropped a mini mv movie weeks before CLC's comeback. I don't get it as they are the senior group and honestly haven't been given a fair chance to shine. You got some of the girls paying for overseas gigs and whatnot for the whole group and staff. If they give us an album before the end of the year i'll believe in their change of heart.
Without a doubt this is one of the best comebacks of the year, I hope that Cube will give them music again, until now they have not won an award in any Korean music show, but they began to receive more attention, so I hope they have a great future as group. Thanks for reacting, I hope later you can react to Monsta X's Fantasia X (the album) and TOO's Runing TOgether.
Thanks for being so honest on your hesitation to review these videos. It is like you said, for most kpop listeners, we do not feel the "cheapness" of the video due to the editing and the director. I guess we cannot unsee it now haha. P.s. Not to rush you, but I am dying to know your thoughts on Gfriend's and Dreamcatcher's latest EPs. Will be waiting!
This is how you comeback after like a year. So much power, such amazing vocals, such a cool choreo, and don't get me started on how much Yeeun and Seunghee impressed me. I listened to CLC on occasion before this song, but this is one of my all favorites this year. Might Stan if more stuff like this keeps coming. 🔥 Edit: I really didn't notice what you said about the MV. I was actually very satisfied by the visuals and everything, but now that you mention it I get what you mean. 😳
I'm treating this song as almost a redebut in a sense that like a debut it shows the members strengths (tho not enough for Yujin/Elkie imo) and their beauty and showing what they're capable of. Fitting that a song titled "Helicopter" would be a vehicle for CLC to show that when it comes to singing, dancing, stage presence they're tough competition.

The reason you may have received so many requests for this mv may also be the that due to CLC’s lower popularity, fans hope for a reaction/review for exposure and not because they think the mv is particular impressive 😔
That’s hard for me to grasp. I consider CLC to be upper tier but that’s in terms of quality. I suppose in terms of popularity...
@@formoftherapy I thought so too! When I first got into Kpop and I stumbled upon CLC's Black dress I thought they were as big as some of the more pouplar ggs like Twice or Red Velvet because their songs are so good! Sadly, not many people appreciate them
@@formoftherapy I agree, it's the mismanagement. Every single time CLC had a successful song, Cube either gave them a long hiatus or gave them a cutesy song, which always flopped for them and made people lose interest again...
@@sonata652 If you said they had successful song for international, the answer is yes. But if it means Korea, then answer is no. It's not about cutesy song or long hiatus made them flop, it's just Korean don't pay any attention on them or listen to their songs. And a lot of groups face these problems except for groups from big three.
@@k8010300101 While that is also true, Cube could have grasped onto that and still earned money through CLC. Look at Kard for example, they focus solely on their international fanbase. The cutesy songs and long hiatus made the international audience forget about them and instead focus on other groups that were active.
Sadly this IS Cube undercutting CLC, however as much as I have my problems with the company I have to defend them in this case, why you may ask? People really overestimate how profitable CLC is, a lot of my friends who aren't even really kpop fans know CLC and in general if you really think about it internationally they are one of the biggest groups having 30M views in two weeks always being in top 10 spotify listeners and charting high on itunes worldwide and digital billboard, you would think with all that CLC sells pretty well right? Well surprisingly for some reason still unknown to man kind they don't, CLC is one of the worst selling girl groups out there. Here is the thing, when people talk about CLC's mistreatment they compare them to groups like Lovelyz, Weki Meki, WJSN, Dreamcatcher etc there is this conception that CLC is sort of above them because they are much more "popular" however how much do you think they sale? Well to give you a random number Dreamcatcher's last comeback with BOCA just surpassed 50k sales, pretty much all Lovelyz and Weki Meki albums sell around 30k-60k do you know how much CLC sells? Well just to give an idea (and keep in mind CLC is older than all of those groups) their best sellers right now No.1 and Helicopter are roughly touching 15k.....yeah it's THAT BAD all other CLC albums barely touch 5k-10k sales, it's too low and add to that the fact that CLC is never really invited to award shows or festivals and have literally one to zero brand promotions their revenue really is low. CLC isn't making money, I don't even think they make enough to at least pay the debt of each comeback so honestly I am happy this is not as high budget I can only imagine the situation the girls are in right now needing to pay CUBE I don't want that gap to get bigger. PLEASE BUY CLC MUSIC! They need it, I mean things are looking up with Helicopter being just a single album but already doing better than No.1 so there's that but please be mindful of what you are asking cheshire, as much as I would love it we can't ask thousands thousands of dollars from CUBE that they aren't getting back. (And YES cube IS in many ways at fault for not promoting and managing CLC better however I still feel like even with that my point still stands that people don't realize in how bad of a place CLC is in terms of budget)
This is correct. Even with "Hobgoblin" which is considered the turning point when it comes to CLC getting much needed attention, did not chart at all in Korea. It charted on Billboard's World Songs chart and did very well there but not in their homeland. The last time a song of theirs charted on the Gaon Digital charts was "No Oh Oh" back in 2016 and it only got to 144.
@@MrSuperjam789 Exactly, and something that people don't know is that Crystyle is one of their worst selling albums and Free'sm which came after and people say "ruined" their career sold better, CLC 's story is really complicated honestly.
@@aandreaapardo Yeah, and No. 1, their last EP, did pretty well for their standards but it's been a long wait until "Helicopter." It's a shame, they're a good group but due to misfortune and mismanagement, they never got their due. I hope they don't disband when their 7 year contract comes up in 2022.
@@MrSuperjam789 they most likely will disband and Cube will only keep Yeeun :(
Yeeun really wanted us dead this comeback and I’m very okay with that.
true! i want me dead anyways so yaas girl!
during a live sorn said that she was grateful for having a comeback this year cause the girls were scared of not getting one in 2020. So idk about a pre release single situation :(
Love this song and this choreo was so cool and exciting on the music shows. Total girl power.
In my opinion Cube is just testing the waters with CLC this comeback. I don't know if you've noticed but this comeback has been promoted way better than both ME and Devil together. The new CEO of Cube has been making a lot of changes and this has been very beneficial for Cube's groups including CLC. The new CEO really likes CLC, and he keeps up with all of their achievements and even social media. Let's hope that Cube is letting CLC comeback in early 2021 with a full album or at least a mini album. CLC have been breaking a lot of their own records this comeback, their sales improved, high views and even charting very high on Billboard. They lack domestic support which is definitely a big weakness of CLC's success. Hoping for them to join Queendom season 2, to boost their domestic fanbase. It certainly helped groups like Lovelyz, Oh my Girl and CLC's juniors (G)-IDLE as well.
thankyou for reaction CLC, yes we stan queen
I love yeeun line in this mv
i will never get tired of seeing people's reaction to yeeun's second verse
Fun fact: Seunghee actually got a lot of lines and it was mostly due to her adlibs in the last chorus
Came back here after watching Girls Planet 999 where Choi Yujin isa contestant. I Hope PD support her on her new Idol journey ❤️
When I first heard of Hobgoblin And Black Dress which was this year. I was so surprised like "HOW IN THE FCK IS THIS NOT POPULAR IN OUR COUNTRY?!?!"
i always look forward to your reactions. I just love getting deeper info about music and video production, it helps me appreciate certain songs more now that i see all the technical and intricate details
CLC snapped with this one !
one thing with CLC i've noticed they really play into certain member ('era's) each comeback. it's one thing i really like about the group.
I think the "old kpop" vibe that you mentioned is what made me love it so much
Normally clc's songs aren't my cup of tea but this one I looove
OMG YES I’VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS
Thank you for reacting to CLC :)
The rapper line is really awesome especially the bass sound from Eunbin. Her lines fit her this time. I really agree with what PD said and really hope that CLC can get more attention especially in Korea. CLC doesn’t bring huge profit so that they may get fewer comeback in view of Cube especially compared with Gidle. And I understand what Cube thinks.
Your voice is really pleasant and you made me want to go check out their previous EP now.
THE VIDEO I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR
the reason why they are giving so much to Yeeun because she was in a group called 'good girl' in a reality show with a bunch of idols like hyoyeon from snsd,jiwoo from kard and soloists like ailee ,jamie,cheetah ,anyway i am happy for her and for the group that they are starting to gain more recognition because they are as good as the famous girl groups with badass and girl crush concepts .
finally, been checking and waiting for PD to react on Helicopter and it's here.
THEY DESERVED BETTER!!!!!
Yay! I'm so happy you reacted!
I loved your thoughts!! I immediately clicked when I saw you had uploaded your thoughts on Helicopter.
They need an EP or even a studio album at this point!!
YES!!! I HAVE BEEN WAITING SOOO LONG FOR THIS KULTURE STUDY!!
CLC is underrated. Even now. People need to stop sleeping on them, they deserve so much more 💜
I WAS DRINKING CHOCO MILK AND I ALMOST SPIT IT OUT WHEN I SAW THIS ON MY FEED! FINALLY!
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS I KEPT SEARCHING FOR THE VIDEO
thank you PD - always nice to have a critical view on MVs
btw, I am sorry to read that people went to the point of harrassing you with their requests
I mean, this is “Form of Therapy”, so people should really chill :)
YAYYYYYY I'VE BEEN REALLY WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!!HECK YEAHHHH
finally! i thought you're gonna miss this one:(
Yeah I don't even know what's the use of that huge building (Cube ent) when they don't even atleast try to produce more songs for their group ....
PLS I'VE WAITED FOR THIS FOR WEEKS NOW 💀💀
Thank you for reacting to clc♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you!!! I've been waiting so patiently. These queens deserve the spotlight!
FINALLYYYYYYYY 😭😭😭❤️
finally, I've been wanting this since last week. acckkkkk
Clc world domination 😤
I was waiting for your reaction about this ㅠㅠ
Yasss i've been waiting for this!!! Thank you PD!
yeeun was super shy on good girl in the beginning but her confidence in her skills grew as time went on. she was there to not only promote herself as the top-tier rapper she is but also as a member of clc. she was 100% there to promote clc which I found so amazing. chesires were happy to see yeeun get sm attention in helipcoper, its great to see cube capitalize off the popularity of yeeun..
Welcome back PD!!! 🙆🏻♂️
yay finally you reacted to helicopter
Interesting input. For me I thought this was a step up from their previous MVs. It does seem like there has been a slight increase in budget with this but yes still not good enough in terms of who CLC is. Some budget may have been allocated to the physical album because I think it is their most beautiful albums to date along with gorgeous individual member posters.
The 2 Yeeun rap verses was killer! Seunghee being center during the chorus is amazing as well! Surprised to see Eunbin having many short rap verses was cool. So I agree with everything you said about the line distribution. Sorn, Yujin, and Elkie definitely had more lines during Me and Devil but what is so great about CLC is how they rotate and giving each member their own era to shine. Even though Sorn had little lines, when she does sing, it hits you hard! Also the ad libs from Sorn and Seunghee was amazing! Not sure if Elkie did any ad libs.
Also 100% agree how Cube have been managing CLC so poorly. CLC were on a almost year hiatus not once but TWICE! From Devil to Helicopter and Black Dress to No. No studio full album yet. Took 5 years to give them official colors. The list just goes on. However, things are starting to look promising. It seems like Cube finally giving CLC the attention they deserve. They got a logo change. They got a visual film. They dropped "For Cheshire" videos. An English MV version (even though 90% of literally the same). There was like an advertisement project that was release like a couple days ago too!
CLC have broken all their previous records of MV views, albums sales, and social media followings. So I really hope Cube continues this momentum with CLC. I do not want them to disappear again for another year. Hopefully more Korean fans will start to notice what a great group they have been missing out.
The journey never ends.
Haha at last. I've been waiting for your reaction
Yassssssssssssssssssssss been waiting for this one
THANK YOU! i seriously thought i was the only one saying this video was low budget! they still slayed it of course, but i was expecting more from the mv if i’m being honest.
Finally! I thought you won't review this one.
Yeeun’s rap in the eng version is more hard. 💖💖
Thank you PD!!! 🔥💕
It would have been good to also talk about CLC’s struggles and that cube invests what they can get from them. Truth is they barely sell so they get low budget. It makes sense.
Finally!! Thank youu !!!
Finally.. I was waiting for this
I‘m so excited to see what PD will say🥰
Now we know why the MV is low budget... Cube was like "CLC who?" :(
yeeun ATE it
currently crying
FINALLY HELICOPTER 😭😍
I loved this video talking honestly about your thoughts and concerns. I was one of them that didn't really see the flaws in the music video until you pointed that out and I think that is interesting and refreshing. Ty
yess i was waiting for your reaction to clc. these girls slays every damn time and even tho their mvs are not that much high budget they can make the best out of it. cube doesn’t give them much and that makes me sad we were waiting an album but obviously i was happy and gave them my whole support🤍
I always come here to check if he had reacted to I Love you already. Ayt imma head back tomorrow
Yeun after good girl grow a lot in her stage presence, and I love it.
I think we could all use more CLC in our lives🤣
When I watched this MV I immediately thought it looked pretty low budget and wanted you to react to it. Glad to hear your opinions and insights as always!
Wow immediate thumbs up from me. You said it all so perfectly.
Yeeun did learn a lot form Good Girl btw. You gotta watch her come up because its wonderful to see what she brought to this comeback. Even got a writing nod.
I know you are not hating on the production team. I'm sure the staff close to CLC is great BUT whoever makes the big calls with budgets, mvs, styling, and before recent scheduling/booking (we'll see how long the improvement lasts). If you go through all of CLC's mv's they are all so confine, limited, unimaginative (besides Hobgoblin i guess).
It becomes really noticeable when you like another cube group and see all they get vs what CLC gets. COVID can't be an excuse when Idle just dropped a mini mv movie weeks before CLC's comeback. I don't get it as they are the senior group and honestly haven't been given a fair chance to shine. You got some of the girls paying for overseas gigs and whatnot for the whole group and staff. If they give us an album before the end of the year i'll believe in their change of heart.
Soooooooorn let's get it!
I have been waiting for this.
this comeback is really awesome and Good Girl did Yeeun sooo much good. Can't wait for you to check it out :)
I LOVE YOUUUUU
Without a doubt this is one of the best comebacks of the year, I hope that Cube will give them music again, until now they have not won an award in any Korean music show, but they began to receive more attention, so I hope they have a great future as group. Thanks for reacting, I hope later you can react to Monsta X's Fantasia X (the album) and TOO's Runing TOgether.
I love CLC!!! Such a cool comeback!
Aren't you interested in Lovelyz's Obliviate, PD? Their new album is awsome too~!
Woweeee. . .thank you 😁
Thanks for being so honest on your hesitation to review these videos. It is like you said, for most kpop listeners, we do not feel the "cheapness" of the video due to the editing and the director. I guess we cannot unsee it now haha.
P.s. Not to rush you, but I am dying to know your thoughts on Gfriend's and Dreamcatcher's latest EPs. Will be waiting!
This is how you comeback after like a year. So much power, such amazing vocals, such a cool choreo, and don't get me started on how much Yeeun and Seunghee impressed me.
I listened to CLC on occasion before this song, but this is one of my all favorites this year. Might Stan if more stuff like this keeps coming. 🔥
Edit: I really didn't notice what you said about the MV. I was actually very satisfied by the visuals and everything, but now that you mention it I get what you mean. 😳
Yeeun just punches people in the face in this one ♥️
god i love them
I get what you're saying about sounding like older (2nd gen) kpop because of the slow tempo chorus!! Reminds me of 4minute CRAZY or hate!
I'm treating this song as almost a redebut in a sense that like a debut it shows the members strengths (tho not enough for Yujin/Elkie imo) and their beauty and showing what they're capable of. Fitting that a song titled "Helicopter" would be a vehicle for CLC to show that when it comes to singing, dancing, stage presence they're tough competition.
