aespa and any sm group their vocals line hit different , they have range and powerful notes like they know fr what they’re doing + the only company that i Stan every group in it
They gave their speech at the UN, the actual UN in New York, yup, pretty special for a K-Pop group to give a message at the UN itself, and they also showed one of their music videos at the UN for all the ambassadors there to see. There is actually a full youtube video of their whole speech, and a behind-the-scenes of their time there also. Their lore is actually explained in their special SMCU (SM Culture) episodes, there is an ep1 and ep2 that explain it. And yeah, check out their performance stages, they are great, and of course the B sides off their albums, this is their 2nd mini album.
I've watched the smcu episodes I think they are cool af and I'm really glad they have a lore they actually play into. A lot of groups say they have a theme or lore but rarely if ever do you see it, aespa is different.
At the end of Savage MV the said, "What!?". They thought they already killed Black Mamba (the virtual hatred virus villain appeared as a dark queen or giant snake) but they didn't. But here in Girls MV they finally killed Black Mamba. Winter slashed her heart through the monitor screens.
My feeling is that aespa couldn't have defeated the Black Mamba so quickly, they've only been at it for 2 years, and I wouldn't think, if we take into consideration SM's history, that the company would be ready to close this chapter of the storyline just yet. The Black Mamba is a computer hacker that uses a virus to infect Kwangya, etc., so I think although aespa was able to eliminate some of the Black Mamba's virus or parts, I don't think this is the last time we will see the Black Mamba. Plus, as with most superhero and fantasy type movies and stories, there is always a twist where when you think the villain has been defeated, something happens and they figure out a way to reappear or they take a new form, etc. After all, it's been more than 10 years and we still have no idea who or what the Red Force is in EXO's storyline. At one point you see a jump drive with the word aespa on it and I think this is one of the girls finding Black Mamba's command center and downloading a virus or program to stop the Black Mamba from being able to control things. And, although, at the end it looks as if maybe the Black Mamba has been defeated and disappears, I have a feeling that aespa has only managed to put up a roadblock and temporarily stop the Black Mamba, but once the Black Mamba regroups and figures out how to get around whatever aespa did, the hacker will be back. Or maybe that was just the Black Mamba running away, etc. Some think that Red Velvet, EXO's sister group, could be the Red Force from EXO's storyline, or they could at least be members of the Red Force. I think the Black Mamba maybe working with the Red Force, or it could be a separate evil being who also wants to find the Tree of Life and prevent peace from being restored in the Universe. More recently, some fans are thinking maybe RV member Seulgi is the Black Mamba, as could possibly be what is shown in RV's recent MV. This would only further the theory that Red Velvet is connected to the Red Force. And as you may know, SuperM is the Kpop industry's very first supergroup which debuted in October 2019. Their concept and storyline is centered around the fact that they are Avenger-like superheros, so SuperM is the group that pretty much connects everything together. As part of EXO's story, Baekhyun and Kai -- who are members of EXO -- have recruited members from SM Entertainment's other male Kpop groups -- Taemin from SHINee, Taeyong and Mark from NCT and Ten and Lucas from WayV -- and formed SuperM, to help them battle the Red Force. It is said that the concept for SuperM is supposed to be like the Avengers, so, I see it as each of the members are a different kind of superhero that make up the larger "Avengers" group, just like how the Marvel Avenger members come together from all walks of life with all different abilities and powers, etc. to make up one big supergroup. Also, just like how the Marvel Avengers come together to combine their strengths and powers to help fight Thanos, I see parallels with what SM is doing with SuperM's storyline. SuperM is taking members from each group and joining forces to take down the Red Force. And just like how the movies "Avengers Identity War" and "Avengers Endgame" eventually had each of the Marvel Avengers members recruiting their whole crew to help in the fight, I think SM is setting it up so that all of its groups' members will eventually be brought into the fight. Theories have also speculated that NCT's/WayV's dream concept and storyline also connects to EXO's storyline. As with everything NCT does, it all has to do with dreams, dreaming or something to do with being in a dream state, which could very easily connect to EXO's other world and other dimension theories. Now, to explain how aespa is connected to the story. aespa debuted in November 2020, and as you saw, so far they have 4 MVs that are connected to their storyline. (The story in "Illusion's" lyrics help to explain the Black Mamba hacker's motivations and storyline. And the story in their "Life's Too Short" MV helps to connect the story from their ep. 2 drama video.) I am also starting to wonder if maybe aespa has something to do with the Tree of Life from EXO's storyline, because, in "Next Level," you see aespa and their avatars with what looks like the mother tree from the Hollywood movie "Avatar," so I wonder if maybe aespa were made the guardians of the Tree of Life, tasked with hiding the two halves of the tree. Therefore, maybe the Tree of Life is what the Black Mamba is after. As we are told in the intro of EXO's debut "Mama", the Tree of Life was split in half in order to prevent the Red Force from gaining control of the heart of the Tree of Life. However, things on Earth have gotten out of hand, so now EXO needs to reunite the two halves of the tree in order to restore peace. So, I think part of EXO's mission is they are on a quest to find aespa in order to reveal where the tree was hidden. As you probably know, aespa was first introduced to the world in a teaser at the end of SuperM's "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV in 2020 -- about a week or so before aespa's debut. In the last scene of the "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV, we see Taemin with an LG phone and on the phone screen there is a symbol that appears. At the time, when that MV was released, we had no idea what that meant. However, soon after that, we discovered that the symbol you see on Taemin's phone -- ae -- is the logo/symbol for aespa. So, on top of being a teaser for aespa's debut, I think by making aespa a part of SuperM's MV, this was SM's way of establishing aespa's connection to SuperM's/EXO's storyline. Will aespa eventually join forces with EXO to defeat evil or will the Black Mamba gain control and cause aespa to team up with (Red Velvet?) and become members of the Red Force? We will just have to wait to see how SM connects the dots and draws the storylines together. But I have a feeling that, eventually, aespa's story will connect to SuperM's story, and, along the way, also EXO, NCT and Red Velvet's storyline, and maybe Taemin's solo work, and possibly even SHINee. (Even though SHINee is part of the second generation in Kpop, the members are the same age as third generation group members, so they sort of bridge that gap between second and third generation.) aespa's story is just another one of SM's epic concepts and mysteries that we will have to wait and see where it takes us.
Yeah 🌝. This went HARD edm/drums/kpop style on par with any metal song. I mean it had my attention thru the whole mv, metalheads would vibe with this. Aespa is slowly becoming a top tier group on my fav list. Great reaction 👍👍👍
Aespa is for sure one of my favorite groups especially for being a newer group. To me they kill in every way, they all sing great, one of the best dancing GGs around, unique lore and style and seem fun and quirky as ppl. What more could you ask for from a group. I think Ningning is super cute and funny, she is my bias, anytime you see her in videos she is always doing something wierd lol
KWANGYA! SM theory : AESPA - Next Level : "I walk to KWANGYA i know your home ground confront the threat" AESPA - Black Mamba : "You wander this KWANGYA" EXO - Don't Fight The Feeling : "Speed across KWANGYA" NCT U - 90's Love : "When You become stronger, come and find me Beyond the KWANGYA, come closer" NCT + AESPA : ZOO "This is KWANGYA"
To help you start to understand aespa better as a group and to explain a little more about what is happening in their MVs, if you haven't already, you should watch aespa's "aespa 'ep1. Black Mamba' - SM Culture Universe" video that was released right before their MV for "Next Level" was released and their "aespa 'ep. 2 Next Level' -- SM Culture Universe" video that was just released before their "Girls" MV. It's the first and second episodes of aespa's drama and it explains in more detail about aespa's storyline. As with everything that SM does, aespa is much more than just a singing group. They have a whole story that is more like a movie or an epic novel and all their MVs and everything they do is connected. What little I have gathered from watching the "Girls" MV a few times is that aespa has tracked down the Black Mamba's lair, or the space within Kwangya where Black Mamba has taken up residency or is hiding, and they are working to take Black Mamba down. You see the Black Mamba monitoring the girls' movements on security cameras as aespa searches the Black Mamba's hideout. And you also see naevis watching everything happening from I think Kwaga where she said in ep. 2 she would be watching them and sending assistance when she could, etc. At one point you see a jump drive with the word aespa on it and I think this is one of the girls finding Black Mamba's command center and downloading a virus or program to stop the Black Mamba from being able to control things. And, although, at the end it looks as if maybe the Black Mamba has been defeated and disappears, I have a feeling that aespa has only managed to put up a roadblock and temporarily stop the Black Mamba, but once the Black Mamba regroups and figures out how to get around whatever aespa did, the hacker will be back. Or maybe that was just the Black Mamba running away, etc. aespa couldn't have defeated the Black Mamba so quickly, they've only been at it for 2 years, and I wouldn't think, if we take into consideration SM's history, that the company would be ready to close this chapter of the storyline just yet. Plus, as with most superhero and fantasy type movies and stories, there is always a twist where when you think the villain has been defeated, something happens and they figure out a way to reappear or they take a new form, etc. After all, it's been more than 10 years and we still have no idea who are what the Red Force is in EXO's storyline. To understand how all of SM's groups are connected, you need to be aware that it all began with EXO's debut in 2012. As I think you know, EXO's concept is that they are aliens from Planet Exo who have been sent to Earth on a mission to find and protect the Tree of Life from the Red Force, while also trying to fix all the things that are going wrong in the world, which are believed to be caused by the Red Force. The Red Force is thought to be here on Earth inflicting their evil agenda -- corrupting humanity and causing all the bad things that are happening in the world, such as war, hate and destruction of the environment, etc. And because EXO is trying to undo and prevent the Red Force from accomplishing their goals, the Red Force is also trying to take down EXO by capturing them, corrupting them and standing in their way, etc. Some theories even believe that Red Velvet is connected to EXO's storyline. Some think that Red Velvet, EXO's sister group, could be the Red Force, or they could at least be members of the Red Force. I think the Black Mamba maybe working with the Red Force, or it could be a separate evil being who also wants to find the Tree of Life and prevent peace from being restored in the Universe. More recently, some fans are thinking maybe RV member Seulgi is the Black Mamba, as could possibly be shown in RV recent MV. This would only further the theory that Red Velvet is connected to the Red Force. But no matter what, I am sure RV is definitely part of the SM Culture Universe. And as you also may know, SuperM is the Kpop industry's very first supergroup which debuted in October 2019. Their concept and storyline is centered around the fact that they are Avenger-like superheros, so SuperM is the group that pretty much connects everything together.

It's not my song.. yet. But is growing for me. They looked GREAT, I love that hairstye for Karina, and Giselle also has cool hairstyles and not just straight hair. NINGNING is that girl, she looks so much like Bada is insane. I do wonder how long they can have a lore that involves Black Mamba, or how long until they create a new villain, SM is known for dropping concepts, but so far they are really doing it.
i heard the song before we got a chance to do a reaction, so because of that we wont be doing a reaction for that one.. It sucks because we have a lot of their songs on the channel, but im sure we'll catch the next comeback
We already know all itzy songs and we are big fans.. we have a few itzy reactions on the channel and I'm looking forward to our next recording session so I can check out the new song

It is said that the concept for SuperM is supposed to be like the Avengers, so, I see it as each of the members are a different kind of superhero that make up the larger "Avengers" group, just like how the Marvel Avenger members come together from all walks of life with all different abilities and powers, etc. to make up one big supergroup.
Also, just like how the Marvel Avengers come together to combine their strengths and powers to help fight Thanos, I see parallels with what SM is doing with SuperM's storyline.

Theories have also speculated that NCT's/WayV's dream concept and storyline also connects to EXO's storyline. As with everything NCT does, it all has to do with dreams, dreaming or something to do with being in a dream state, which could very easily connect to EXO's other world and other dimension theories.
Now, to explain how aespa is connected to the story. aespa debuted in November 2020, and as you saw, so far they have 4 MVs that are connected to their storyline. (You also should check out the official lyric video for "Illusion." The story in "Illusion's" lyrics help to explain the Black Mamba hacker's motivations and storyline. And the story in their new all English "Life's Too Short" MV helps to connect the story from their ep. 2 drama video.)
I am also starting to wonder if maybe aespa has something to do with the Tree of Life from EXO's storyline, because, in "Next Level," you see aespa and their avatars with what looks like the mother tree from the Hollywood movie "Avatar," so I wonder if maybe aespa were made the guardians of the Tree of Life, tasked with hiding the two halves of the tree. Therefore, maybe the Tree of Life is what the Black Mamba is after.
As we are told in the intro of EXO's debut "Mama", the Tree of Life was split in half in order to prevent the Red Force from gaining control of the heart of the Tree of Life. However, things on Earth have gotten out of hand, so now EXO needs to reunite the two halves of the tree in order to restore peace. So, I think part of EXO's mission is they are on a quest to find aespa in order to reveal where the tree was hidden.
aespa was first introduced to the world in a teaser at the end of SuperM's "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV in 2020 -- about a week or so before aespa's debut. In the last scene of the "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV, we see Taemin with an LG phone and on the phone screen there is a symbol that appears. At the time, when that MV was released, we had no idea what that meant. However, soon after that, we discovered that the symbol you see on Taemin's phone -- ae -- is the logo/symbol for aespa. So, on top of being a teaser for aespa's debut, I think by making aespa a part of SuperM's MV, this was SM's way of establishing aespa's connection to SuperM's/EXO's storyline.
Will aespa eventually join forces with EXO to defeat evil or will the Black Mamba gain control and cause aespa to team up with (Red Velvet?) and become members of the Red Force? We will just have to wait to see how SM connects the dots and draws the storylines together. But I have a feeling that, eventually, aespa's story will connect to SuperM's story, and, along the way, also EXO, NCT and Red Velvet's storyline, and maybe Taemin's solo work, and possibly even SHINee. (Even though SHINee is part of the second generation in Kpop, the members are the same age as third generation group members, so they sort of bridge that gap between second and third generation.)
aespa's story is just another one of SM's epic concepts and mysteries that we will have to wait and see where it takes us.
Dreamcatcher and aespa have the strongest concept in kpop history
Agree(girlgroup)
@@melodies_memoryofexy1006 Disagree. I already mentioned "in kpop history" meaning it doesn't matter if it's boys or girls
It's not my song.. yet. But is growing for me. They looked GREAT, I love that hairstye for Karina, and Giselle also has cool hairstyles and not just straight hair. NINGNING is that girl, she looks so much like Bada is insane. I do wonder how long they can have a lore that involves Black Mamba, or how long until they create a new villain, SM is known for dropping concepts, but so far they are really doing it.
U have a very nice and accurate analysis on the MV & its lore. I love it a lot❤️ keep it up!
They spoke at the UN also this is the end of the black mamba era
It's good to start and end stories, makes me interested to see what they do next
