A RETIRED DANCER'S POV- GOT7 "Eclipse" M/V+Dance Practice

- WTF DOES “OG KPOP STAN" EVEN MEAN?!⬇️
Supposedly "original gangster”, can be seen as “old generation", personally viewed as “old-school”.🤓 I’ve been into Korean music since 1998 when I was 15, and using “kpop stan” is more catchy (super cringe or not) than “person who’s listened to Korean music since 1998”, amirite or AMIRITE.😂

XTRA 411-
I became an avid Korean music aka Kpop listener/lover since 1998. Korean and rap music were my coping mechanisms from the bullying I experienced in middle school through high school and my love for the genre has stuck by me ever since. The genre, along with artists like Michael Jackson, Aaliyah, Britney Spears, etc. then motivated me into becoming a hip-hop/pop dancer, which was a very active lifestyle for me literally throughout my whole 20s. (XTRA DANCE 411- I danced for, trained, and performed with 4 different dance teams. My first and main dance team who started my "dance life" was with Marvelous Motion (who later became IaMmE, America's Best Dance Crew Season 6 Champions). A lot of my dance training came from Di "Moon" Zhang, Brandon "747" Harrell, Emilio Dosal, SOREAL, and from attending many dance classes in Houston and L.A. (from amazing local talent to widely-known talents such as Parris Goebel, Keone Madrid, Kyle Hanagami, Lando Wilkins, Mister Wiggles, Rino Nakasone)
Unfortunately, I took a huge break from Korean music and dance around 2015 when I was officially diagnosed with lupus nephritis, seizures, and a heart murmur. I was receiving and battling years of chemotherapy and dialysis along with taking 32 pills a day, so I had no mental/emotional/spiritual room to keep myself updated with Kpop or dance. Luckily, I'm in remission now. That doesn't mean that lupus and seizures are gone because I am still very capable of frequent flare-ups if I don't take care of myself, but I make sure to do so enough to manage and live as "normally" as possible. I am also not capable of being an active dancer like I used to be due to my chronic illnesses, but I’m still a dancer in my mind, heart, and soul.
ALSO! Just to be SUPER clear- me calling myself an "OG kpop stan" does NOT mean that anyone who's listened to kpop after me is inferior or less-than. A kpop lifestyle is a kpop lifestyle regardless of time. Please don’t get that sh*t twisted.😛 Sooo I am currently and actively keeping a weather eye on the KPOP horizon and also using what I’ve learned from my dance years to give credit where it’s due!

xthina
lol "mr. sharp" is yugyeom, the main dancer and maknae
GOT7 is soooooo good vocally and choreographically! You should check out “Lullaby” and “Aura”
got7 last piece too
OMG, you liked when they couldn't see, you must watch their "Aura" performance video... YOU WILL LOVE IT.
+ You Calling My Name, You Are, Lullaby and all their MGs are masterpieces.
well mr sharp is the main dancer, yugyeom and he definitely i sharp and crisp with his moves⚡
got7 is one of the best groups of 3rd gen. hope u enjoy them as much as i do (and become an ahgase soon)
14:06 well Mark does have that charm, it's well known that he's that one member that makes the choreo look easy when he dances because he's just so smooth like you said and graceful, but irl the choreo isn't as easy as he makes it look 🤣 he's not a lead dancer for nothing.
He's also the main/original visual (yes GOT7 are all hella handsome but they have two official visuals, the other one is Jinyoung), sub-vocalist, and main rapper.
Also “Mr. Sharp” is Yugyeom, GOT7's maknae, main dancer, lead vocalist, and sometimes (sub)rapper.
Thank you for finally reacting to GOT7!! I loved both of your reactions so far, very much looking forward to the next one!! The wait is excruciating but the excitement is unreal. I really do loved your reaction, you can tell it's genuine. Thank you. Have a great weekend and week ahead 💚
LOONA's dance practice of this song was the reason why I am addicted to this!
"I really love his voice" Yes, that's Youngjae. He's also my bias. You'll definitely love his voice more on You Are. I'm glad that you finally reacted to got7 and I'll wait for more. They are worth to stan, btw.
So you got it right, this entire choreography is telling the story of the song and the album.
The part where 2 members spin (bambam and jb) it's a reference to spinning top which is the title of the album. The entire album is about overcoming insecurities. Eclipse in particular holds that meaning (leader jb wrote and produced it) it's about overcoming our fears and dark thoughts and hanging to the light (i'm gonna win this fight).
I think you calling my name would be a nice choice to listen/ watch after Eclipse.
Thank you for your reaction.
This group IS full of visuals 🥵
YUGYEOM IS LITERALLY SO UNDERRATED. HE IS ONE OF THE BEST MAIN DANCERS
Oooooo...can't wait for you to watch "Aura" one day. Tho it's only a performance dance video on Dingo, it's still very beautiful.
"mr. sharp" is yugyeom, the main dancer and maknae of the group. he's an incredible perfomer, he won hit the stage (a dancing competition between idols) when he was just 18 and he's been studying a lot of different styles of dancing since he was a child basically, he's just so talented for real

You gotta check loona's cover of this Thina! You look good btw
Agree
yes
you should DEFINITELY check out LOONA's Dance cover of this.
I would like to suggest you react to the GOT7 Flight log Trilogy (Fly-Hard Carry-Never Ever)
Koreans really love Hard Carry. starting from the MV, the music, and the dance are very high quality. Kinjaz was their choreographer for the song.
from the teaser to the MV in the flight log trilogy, everything is a story that connects to each other (I'm 1000% sure you will love it)
finally!! I really like your reaction to Got7-Not by the moon so I'm always looking forward to your next reaction.. thank you for taking the time to react to GOT7 again
please continue to support got7 in the future everyone.. they are so talented, and they hug you warmly if you look at them closely💚💚
Edit - the guy you called Mr sharp is called *Yugyeom* who is the main dancer and maknae in GOT7. Also he won an idol collab with dancers competition which is called *Hit* *the* *Stage* .
I was literally waiting for your reaction to *GOT7* 💚 I know you have a lot of lists to do.....but looking forward to seeing your next *GOT7's* videos 🐥💚 I believe you will enjoy their other songs also like "You Calling My Name", "Lullaby" and so on 💚💚💚
Lol Mark tuan and mr. Sharp yugyeom 😂🙏this LA bros stands out somehow
Everytime got7 do something its just so impressive uhhh they're so talented
Mr. Sharp is Yugyeom and Blue hair is the main vocalist Youngjae
You got Mark right
Also love the costume 💚
All in all, whenever GOT7 dances, it's like their movements themselves are singing, their dance is music itself. There are great dancers out there but sometimes their choreographies do not represent music, they're just movements. But GOT7's choreo are music themselves in a sense that you can hear the song/music by just watching their moves.
Mr. Sharp is Kim Yugyeom and you should definitely see his two “hit the stage” performances(a champion when he’s just 18 y/o) and franchise dance cover. You will not regret it, i am telling you!!!
THINA!! You need to watch LOONA's dance cover of this!!! It is so breathtaking.
At one point GOT7 was one of the groups that was the most in sync with their choreography, while being able to sing live like 98% of the time. Eclipse is definitely a really good show case of that, given how intricate it is with all of the levels and even floor work.
There's a dance cover of this song by Loona which is pretty cool considering the additional number of members, pretty good rendition
Greatest kpop song of all time (imo). I will never get tired of this song. I love the concept that they're scared that their insecurities will "eclipse" their love for their partner/fans/etc., but they're going to win this fight.
I’m happy videos like this exist because they make appreciate how talented GOT7 is.
i love how you noticed their interactive dance parts because most of their songs (with dance practices) always have those parts and it makes it more beautiful and wholesome to watch! also, i appreciate you loving their vocals, emotions and dance all throughout the video! i really enjoyed your genuine reaction 🥺
The major thing to notice about GOT7 choreography is that it’s modeled after their greatest strength which is their team bond. This choreography and most of GOT7’s choreography involves a lot of connections and imagery. The biggest example of this is when people do those big kpop Radom dance challenges with tons of people and they play different artists. when other groups get played it just looks like a bunch of individuals dancing but when GOT7 gets played all of sudden those individuals become a team because GOT7’s choreography is impossible to do otherwise. GOT7 is rare in the fact that they have 6/7 main level dancers. While Yugyeom is the official main dancer of G7 had Jayb, Bambam, mark, Jackson, or Jinyoung been in a different kpop group they easily could be main.
the concept of eclipse is security and insecurity. the lyrics suits the concept.
and GOT7’s choreography is always hard that a lot of trainees trying to avoid their songs.
Lmao Mr. Sharp is youngest winner of Hit the stage. He won that show at the age of 18 and he is main dancer as well maknae of group. Yugyeom is hand down come as one of the best dancers in kpop, you need to see his aoone dancing compilation, his free-style is something 🙌
Damn girl. I really love how quickly you notice all the details not only about the choreo but also about the song, the meaning, the symbolism. I don't think I have seen such a detailed reaction to this song. This is how I know that a person genuinely appreciates and likes the group. Thank you for checking and loving got7. Hope to see more reactions to them because all their songs and choreos are amazing and unique.
im so happy ur finally watching GOT7's content!!!!
Eclipse such a underrated song!!!!!! It has all- beautiful lyrics, choreo, and visuals...
His name is Yugyeom, he is the main dancer of Got7 , you can watch his performance on the famous dance show Hit the stage, he won first place, beating all the dancers of the second and third generation, you will be shocked
I really love ur reaction 😍😍 as an Igot7 I feel so proud to have u reacting on them💚💚💚 I wish u react on You Calling My Name MV
Check out their video for "You calling my name" 💚
Finally some GOT7 🤌 the dance practice is even more impressive as you see the whole steps, the choreo is actually pretty theatrical and has such a big moves, GOT7 often have like interactive moves and formations that aren’t isolated to one member like they have a l out of circles or connected choreos. I remember them killing it in live stages but at the end they were totally tired 😂
And for their vocals Helloooo lol they’re known to be one of the best dancers and performers in Kpop as their voices and danse are that strong live wise
As for the song it had indeed a lot of moon reference which was a theme they used around this era as for the meaning of the song it’s about anxiety and insecurity of being in the industry.
This is one of my favorite song/ video choreo I LOVED the creativity.
I wish we’d heard the real version tho as it’s originally produced by Jayb and had a more rnb/ wavy style but the label changed the production.
Also always really loved the fact that they were never forced into adjusting to a unique dancing style like sometimes labels forces the members to move as one to get a more visual thing but their old label never forced them Into that as they all were already dancers and each have their own style of dancing like Yugyeom is sharper while JayB has more wavy moves. As a dancer too I totally prefer that style of dancing of each one of them expressing the same move with their own flavor. I love military Choreos too but I feel like sometimes it’s not showing the dancer’s ability as sharp and quick moves are much easier if you’re not a dancer than slight moves and slow choreos because If u don’t have musicality it’s impossible to dance slow choreos
You’d really like their « AURA blindfolded version » « if you do » « hard carry » and « breath » choreos
oh my god i looooove your reaction+review soo much!!!!! literally few of the best reactors/reviewers. GOT7 choreos are mostly the hardest but they are beautiful. The Mr. Sharp that you are talking about, his name is Yugyeom xD he won first place in hit the stage (dance competition). One of got7 members (the leader) used to bboy. Bambam used to participate in a dance group before he fly to korea. Jinyoung (the green shirt) passed the audition with dancing. So i guess that can be the factor their dance moves are cleannnn and very good. Maybe you can try to watch Aura (blindfolded version) and Poison (jackson, yugyeom aka mr sharp, jinyoung choreograph for this song). Both are good!!
Oh gooood yes Mr. Sharp is Yugyeom who won Hit The Stage before! He has two performances there that you should check outttt!
I think you should do a journey to understand their whole career as a group, they have great and diverse sounds, maybe you can do backwards, check ycmn and then continue it
They actually did an official part switch version for this, which was VERY entertaining. It's really a nice funny video to watch and shows their personalities more.
how is that all 7 members are such visuals ugh
Lol mr. Sharp is the main dancer for a reason! And i think you will love his Hit the Stage performance, esp. Ep 9, i love the concept and story telling in that dance!
Mr Sharp is Yugyeom, he helped to choreograph this dance. He wanted to do a dance they could only do with the 7 of them~
Fluffy hair with hoodie is Jinyoung, his dance is very exact but looks effortless~
Blue Hair is Youngjae, the power vocal 😆
Jinyoung compares the Eclipse dance to doing crossfit 😬😄💚
LOONA cover this song! As well it's one of fav song of GOT7 the best 👌 *chef kiss*
Mr. Blue Hair is Youngjae. Mr. Sharp is Yugyeom and he is the main dancer of the group. He won on Hit The Stage. Youngjae is one of the main vocalists. Also a suggestion to get to know them better is to watch The Ultimate Guide to Got7. Thanks for your reaction to Got7!
WATCH THEIR "AURA" DANCE PERFORMANCE VIDEO BY DINGO
OMG WHAT TYSM FOR THIS. IT’S LITERALLY MY FAVORITE SONG FROM THEM AND I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOUR GOT7 CONTENTS😭😭
That Mr. Sharp is Yugyeom, the main dancer of the group. You can try to check out his Hit The Stage performance too (Ep. 9 and 10), he's a great and amazing dancer.
Love your reaction which is very detailed 👍🏻 and I look forward to your next GOT7 reaction, especially You Calling My Name and Lullaby.
Yugyeom ‘Hit the stage Ep. 9-10’ please you’re gonna thank me 😉
“ Fly “ is an amazing synchro dance from GOT7, I hope u will react it.
Can u react to GOT7 HARD CARRY or FLY next?? THE CHOREO IS INSANE
i love your vids on GOT7 💚💚💚 What i love about got7's dances is that its very interpretative and it tells a story. If you watch their MAMA "Eclipse" performance you'll see the storyline more clearly 😭
Thank you for reacting to our GOT7 💚please keep reacting to them
You commented that you like someone's voice and that was the main vocalist, Youngjae! He just debuted as a solo artist and released his album! His title track is titled "Vibin" ~
He is also "blue hair" hehehe
Eclipse, Call my name, Not by the moon and Last Piece are a series. You can watch it by order to get the whole story.
just to throw this out there but loona also has a cover of this also! i hope she does hard carry next
NOW U HAVE TO WATCH LOONA'S ECLIPSE COVER!
The guy who you said you like his voice is Youngjae, the main vocalist, he just debuted as a soloist with his song " Vibin' ", maybe you can check it later on
The poetic side it's related to the concept of the album "Spinning Top: Between Security and Insecurity" and they also simulate a spinning top in the dance break. The first half of the album (which includes eclipse) it's the "insecure part", softer songs which main point is insecurities, then other half or the album is more fun and loud and main point is security, like the album's name. You should listen to the album, masterpiece.
I'm watching reactions to GOT7 and yours make me appreciate their choreographies more because of the stuff you pointed out. I hope you react to more GOT7!
and also mr. sharp (lol) is yugyeom. he’s the main dancer. he’s currently under AOMG and made his solo debut with a dance cover video to the song FRANCHISE by travis scott. it’s a great video and it’ll give you a good idea of what he’s capable of doing as a dancer. I recommend you check it out. he also was in a dance competition called Hit the stage and won. you can check out his performances in that competition too they’re dope
I love how you called yugyeom as mr sharp cause he's the main dancer >
Mr.sharp is their main dancer Yugyeom! He is really good at popping and he is One of the champion at "hit the stage" The vocal u like is their main vocal Youngjae ~
aahhh loved this reaction! you should really check out their Studio Choom performances of Crash and Burn, Thursday, and Poison !! they're b side tracks and some of the members participated in the choreography for these performances too ! jinyoung choreographed thursday and him, yugyeom (mr sharp haha) and jackson made the choreo for poison! I think you'll really enjoy watching them :)
I've been watching your videos for the past few days and I'm so happy you're finally getting into got7 because it's my ultimate group in kpop! What I especially looooove about got7's dances is that they don't always focus on doing the moves at the same time at the exact same speed! They focus a lot on their differences in their way of doing the moves and it just helps a lot in understanding their concepts and poetic lyrics! Their individuality is very "real" as it kind of reminds you that not everybody goes at the same speed and does the same thing at the same time! We should focus on creating our own rhythm through life to help us get and live through it and that's what, in my opinion, is very beautiful about got7! They don't hide the members' individuality, they highlight each one through the dance moves and voices!
Can't wait to see more of you reacting to got7, thank you!!!
I live to see your different hairstyles in your videos! You always look so beautiful. Love all your content, your reactions and impressions on the performances and music, and just your overall vibe.
I love got7 choreographys because thay do it so well and so smooth that looks easy and simple, but if you see a cover is never good enough, is never that smooth, always look weird, maybe because is hard to dance. The only got7 cover dance i like is the one loona member do.
you’ve GOT to watch Aura’s choreography video and Poison’s dance practice
Some others have already brought it up but yes Loona did a dance cover practice video on this song! Out of the dance cover practices loona have done, this one is actually my favourite one too so maybe you could react to that some time too.
Got7 - hard carry please
I loved your reaction!!! I have to admit that I laughed so hard at 4:43 haha I'm glad you enjoyed this song and choreo!! Jay B (the leader, the guy on his knees at the end of the choreo) gave us this masterpiece!
The sharp guy is Yugyeom, main dancer. Idk if you react just to MVs but he actually won "Hit the stage" back in 2017, both choreos are sooooo insane!
Hope you can react to "If you do" (the footwork there are soooo good), You calling my name, Lullaby and
AURA (this is not an MV, but there's a choreography video posted by Dingo that DESERVES to be appreciated by you, also the subs include the name of the guys who is singing so that can help you a bit in your next video ;) haha)
UwU~
Mr. Sharp right there is Yugyeom, our main dancer, which also our maknae..
he won Hit the Stage before 🔥
Girl! 💚Keep doing it because I really enjoying this ! Thank you for the reaction !
one of my fav
Thank u so much for this! I enjoyed the analysis especially how you covered the scenes that caught your eye the most. And yes! I can totally relate with you since Mr sharp (yugyeom) catches my eye the most too in this dance practice 😭
5:34 yes choi youngjae our main vocalist ~~~ please react to his solo song vibin
Mr. Sharp also won 1st place on Hit the Stage
FAVE ALBUM AND MV 😭😭😭
Please react to more GOT7 😀. Love your reaction.
Finally. Been waiting and loving your GOT7 reactions. Can't wait for another!♡
The way they also sing live while doing this choreo is insane
OMG U LOOK STUNNING!!!!!!!
☺️
thank you for the reaction!! i love how you see details and appreciate them. can you react to you calling my name and Crash and burn next? please🥺
I’m loving your got7 reactions so far! Please make more much love from ahgases!!
Loving your adjectives for each of them...Mr. Sharp. Yesssss! Love it. Every song has its meaning and special place for the fans....I am binging your videos and I really hope you have a way back video. The old videos were so much fun too, Just Right and the whole first videos are so much fun and as they grow and do multiple dance practices with different versions ...omg...love these guys. They helped me during an extremely dark period in my life. Always thankful for them and when I see someone appreciate all their hard work. Xo much love girl. 🤍🤍
this is such a fun song and choreo omg i'm glad you enjoyed -- i think watching this and then watching loona's cover of this choreo is so interesting because loona don't just cover the dance, they also adapt it to 12 members by changing sections and i think it's such a celebration of the original choreo and song :0 !!
More GOT7 Content! Yes!!
One of my favorite songs
Loved and enjoyed your reaction, would love to see you react to more GOT7 songs and dance pratices.
aura superiority if u want to be in shambles
AHHHHHHHHH I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSSS 😭😭😭😭
Thank you for reacting to got7 and appreciating them again! May I suggest for their MV & dance practice for You Calling My Name or Lullaby next?
Or a guide for got7 to get to know the members first. A basic, short one is the Ultimate Got7 Guide by Ot7ahga.
Also, you look great cosplaying as Tokyo 😍
Tnxxx for you reaction🥺💚
