Off the record is def my fav song
same
I never get bored with this song
same for sure
same! with OTT
@@aaronguavezsame here! Its such a vibe
Either Way is honestly one of my favorite songs from IVE. I just feel that it's one of those songs that the members put a little but more of themselves into than a standard title track would allow.
REALL
Also the way the same lyrics sounds so different when the different members sing them memorises me
I always appreciate how supportive PD is of IVE, even tho they’re one of the most popular 4th gen groups they’re so discredited for literally everything, their dancing, their vocals, their style etc. & it’s nice seeing someone genuinely appreciate their hard-work and skills
Agreed. To appreciate I've concept u gotta have brains
@@via45 so real
I literally can not watch 'Either Way' without crying, i don't know what it is, but it just has this beautiful aethetic, and the song together with the mv just makes this perfect
5:50 love how he was just summing up cool things about the mv and all of a sudden 'the fact they are aliens?!?!' so serious all of a sudden
and now they're really a witch in accendio
Yujin is definitely a master of the camera. Her acting is elite.
The hate that Baddie was getting was INSANE - meanwhile your reaction was EXACTLY my reaction lmao
Ive's songs aren't bad, it's just their individual activities that makes fans hate them. Nothing connected to their music at all, they get the same hate treatment as BlackPink. And if you think about it, their songs are good, no bad songs made even from their debut Eleven, it's already promising, but Love Dive got me so much even tho I do really hate that kind of song but they made me love it.
@@yevgenyalekhinelargo1662What individual activities are you talking about?
@@TropicL3mon literally everything they do, they got hated on it. I actually didn't see the reason why they hate them.
@@yevgenyalekhinelargo1662You don't have any examples?
where do yall see this hate? i never see any hate, stop micro analyzing the internet and get off for once and i bet u ur life will be better
Been waiting for this. Some of their best work imo. An Yujin has slayed the full album and in all videos. She's a queen.
*Yujin
Where ya been? Glad you're back. I love the EP, and I think the b sides are dynamite, too. Check out the Beach Boys pop feel in Payback. They sound great, they look fabulous. Can't wait to see what they'll do next. REI'S VOICE ❤❤❤
Nah.. she is stealing the spotlight of new members
@@octopusmusic332 jump of logic
i like Wonyoung's concept in Off The Record the most. her concept is that she was reluctant to leave her house even though apocalypse is coming. that's why she stocked up food and toilet paper in her house and wore a helmet during an earthquake. Off The Record is mindblowing musically. I dont know about everyone else but if im not mistaken Rei was a character from Dune, Gaeul was having a lonely imaginary wedding and Liz just playing with ducks i guess lmao
Lis was in a make believe fake world. At the start you think she is in the meadows and park and lake, but actually it's a set . Demonstrates illusion
Wow, interesting, that's a cool way to interpret the video
I thought that Wonyoung kept canned hearts (apples) in her house, cause she's a Cupid (as all the girls are), and the earthquake happened cause there were some struggles with her job 😆 Also I can explain the scenes of other girls in that way, all of them did their cupid things. And apples around them are actually hearts. Leeseo prays for new love to grow, Gaeul helps a couple to get married, Rei is the archeror-cupid. I can't unravel Yujin and Liz's scenes though
I need to read some twitter theories 😄
Liz's and wonyoung's storyline in the music video we're related and it is based on an old Korean movie "Castaway on the Moon"
Actually I'VE MINE consists of TRIPLE TITLE TRACKS which is Either Way, Off The Record, and Baddie. Wonyoung menntioned in an interview that each title track focuses on a specific pair of eyes. Either way - How others see us / Off The Record - How we see each other / Baddie - A new side of me that I've discovered. Them being all title tracks explains why the MVs were all of great quality
actually pd, for this comeback, it's a triple-title track! that's why all of the mvs are shot in such high quality, was waiting for your reaction and i'm glad you enjoyed it ^_____^
When you asked "are they witches?!" before you got to Baddie... 😲👏😊
I love how they all tell a story about themselves. Either Way is about finding comfort in your identity, Off the Record is about turning that comfort into love, and Baddie is the full transition from insecurity into confidence. People say they dropped the narcissistic concept but they definitely didnt.
Ive slowly became my ult group, they never disappoint
Either way is such a good take on the hate comments that not much songs cover. Songs like teddy bear and cake are all ignore the hate doesnt matter life is happy blah blah. Either way takes a look at the duality and why its important not to just ignore the hate but understand what it all means to your life. In the end i think they even say "give me the hate and the love either way im good." I think its still sad in the video because instead of ignoring the hate and building a fantasy world of butterflies and rainbows they take it all in... life for what it really is and yeah in the end they wont let it completely ruin who they are or intend to be going forward.. but they still acknowledge the haters and it still does affect their emotions. Plus the duality of the "they are all me in the end" i think yujin said those lines are inspired by comments where people criticize her looks with short hair vs long hair but both are still her in the end. I dunno.. i dont think a kpop song ever resonated with me so deeply on a lyric level than this song did. Either way is a 10/10 for this in my opinion
You put it really well, and the lyrics really resonate with me too! I think the beauty of the MV and song is actually not that it's romanticizing anything, but that it's just accepting the reality of life and taking the good AND the bad with it. They'll try to cover up the bad with glitter sometimes, but at the end of the day they'll accept it and keep going on because "either way" they're gonna be good. To me, that's like them showing how strong they are, even though they shouldn't have to be. And they know that too, that they shouldn't have to be strong, but they are and that's something they'll have to accept, again.
This! 🙌🏼
I feel like there's an element of putting up a front too, especially with the line "let's smile for them like this." It's like "we put on a brave face, but we hear what you say, and it affects us." It's complicated and I love it.
Tbh IVE is that group that makes me like their music without even trying. Like I just heard their song accidentally somewhere and just like it. No need to check the mv, or even getting to know the members I just like their music.
off the record is just beautiful. so beautiful. a complete work of art.
To put into perspective, Off the record came out literally like a month or two ago and it’s already number 1 on my Apple Replay playlist for 2023. The song is THAT good 😭😭😭😭
„Either way" feels like it takes place after „I am " because in I am it’s like they are throwing a party and in either way you can see a room with balloons and stuff like that.
i could listen to off the record forever and will never get tired of it tbh.
This dude understood them, I love his reaction like yes this song could go to another group but ive made it about them and in their style and made it hit big they got PAK with baddie and I love how they constantly comeback with a new concept cuz they still have a lot to show ive
Thank you for noticing that Liz owned their Baddie era!!!! I did not see enough people talking about her but she seriously ate that concept!! It was definitely Liz's era. I couldn't keep my eyes off her during their performances! Her stage presence was so good. And her dancing!!! Her popping during the break down of Baddie was so good. She isn't mentioned enough for her dancing and I'm happy to see her getting more praise. Liz deserves those flowers! 🌹🌹🌹❤
Idk if anyone has already pointed out this reference in the Off The Record M/V, but I believe that Wonyoung’s scene with her looking out of her room with a camera wearing a motorcycle helmet is a reference to a 2009 Korean film named Castaway on the Moon. In which the female lead is shut-in that is in her room viewing the world through her camera. There is also a second reference to the same film with Liz in the duck/Swan boat, a similar boat is featured in the film.
Oml these songs are so amazing and they all make me feel something different. IVE is so talented ughhhh
i really, really like the mass uploads ngl. i was just thinking about this channel yesterday and i thought soon they’re gonna mass upload and here they areeee 🥹
me too!! PDs reactions are my favorite
IVE really have their own aesthetic and style with their music videos
All 3 songs are actually titel tracks.. which is even more insane.
I ended up finally ulting ive cause of this comeback the whole album is so good
What about LSF? 😅
le sserafim? what do you mean? what about them?@@nk2012
i think the glitters + galaxy + planet at the end seems to mean that they got the world/universe in their hands regardless of what's being said about them/how they're portrayed?? or that they ARE the universe?? scraped knees/hands revealing a galaxy underneath or something?
but also i really like the witch concept you mentioned across all three, i hope that was actually intentional because i would really want them to keep exploring different lores because they're SOOO good at it ahhh
'Baddie' is fierce and I love how 'Off the Record' is such a vibe! 💖😊
thank you for complimenting yujin, she's an incredibly performer and has so much potential since izone. literally THE talent is visible but people turn a blind eye on her because she's an ive member which is funny cuz IVE literally so talented.
How come I didn't catch the witch theme before omg. It all makes a lot more sense now
off the record hits my heart so much, cause it feels like such a freedom song, sends you a desire to be free, even free of cameras and recordings, just having a good time and keeping the good moments in mind, in the act of sharing with the ones who lived that. That's why i can't bother filming minutes of a show that, besides the "paying a LOT to watch" fact, is that im basically watching things through a camera and not living it. That's the thing about life, and we, as societies, are kinda drawn too much to sharing everything everywhere...
As far as individual titles this year, I Am did it for me, but this I've Mine album as a whole is so satisfying. There have been days where I have popped in the earbuds and looped this album for hours. Off The Record is my jam, but every other song is a contender too XD. I enjoyed this comeback. And Yujin with her acting and Liz with her confident attitude really held my attention. Icing on the cake to see these great performances from them.
Either Way is simply their best song all of time for me! I'm the type that still can't move on from 2010's pop sounds, and this song is the best example ❤️
I saw IVE in Forth Worth just a few weeks ago and it was incredibly exhilarating experience seeing them perform these songs on stage!
baddie is my fave title track, i’m obsessed 🥰
In my opinion and understanding, I think these 3 titles are all somewhat connected.
Starting with EITHER WAY, wherein other people have different views of you whether hate or love. They just keep pretending, hiding their emotions even if they are hurt. "Either Way they're good"
Then there's Off The Record, they are starting to share their worries, share their thoughts(they have each other), and slowly coming out of their shells... to be able to express their thoughts and feelings and most importantly themselves, as who they are. Also, them tempted to try something new, something that they've never done before, something extraordinary...
Lastly, Baddie, they took the risk to completely come out of their shell and their comfort zones. They don't care what other people may think, say, or do. All they care about is what they want to do and do what they want. They're like a cat, reigning this world with so much courage, strength, and being unbothered af. (most specifically about what people will say).
In conclusion, the transition from showing ➡️ vulnerability ➡️ blossom out ➡️ BADDIE
Baddie is the most kpop kpop to ever kpop
Off the Record just hits the right spot for me! Either way makes me tear up EVERYTIME, and Baddie makes me wanna dance! ❤❤❤
Omg all of their songs makes sense to me now!!!. I appreciate their songs more like wtf 😂
Either Way feels so, so, so, so personal and beautiful.
OTR has become my favorite mv of the year alongside ASAP by New Jeans. Tbh idk what the fxck is going on in both music videos but the aesthetic and vibes are just immaculate
Which IVE track?
please specify what title track, thank you.
@@blaccore guess bestie 🤩✨
@@nk2012 you have to guess which one of the 2 bestie 🤩✨
@@ughgowonsscalpandcrunchyvo4926IJBOL
This comeback was WILD.
ive been waiting for this reaction. IVE are just different. noone is doing it like them. what your saying is 100% true. if any other group had done this. it wouldnt be no way near the same. only IVE can dominate the charts and get a PAK with baddie.
off th record might be SOTY for me. such a fuckin bop.
also i think Christopher Nolan directed the video secretly because holy shit
damn‚ all of these PD flood uploads today is curing my depression.
Hope you get well soon
I still get emotional everytime I hear 'Either Way' and watch the MV. The sound, lyrics and their vocals (especially Yujin and Liz). Everything is so perfect and I made this song my warrior hymn so I could get through everything!
😭🤧💖🥲
bro off the record was literally same reaction like holy shit its too good
been waiting for this reaction bc pd has one of the most credible takes in kpop.
apparently, Wonyoung and Liz's characters in otr were parodied from an old tv show/movie, where wonyoung is the female lead while liz is the male lead, i forgot what its called
edit: now that i got back to this, the title of the show of wonyoung's and liz's characters is castaway on the moon
do you know what yujin is supposed to represent
@@BobaJae.05 it might just be an original character, tho i might be wrong
if i'm not wrong. The hands in either way were shot by Leeseo and Gaeul.
Off The Record has pontential to be SOTY If the lyrics in full english
How do they only release good songs?? With amazing music videos? And mpull off all of the concepts so well???
Baddie MV to me seems like they just got all Red Velvet and NCT's MVs and mashed all up but made it baddie and stylish! hahaha
the ending of the mv and the build to the outro, the water sprinkle the rainbow balls falling. when i'm feeling overwhelmed by happiness? thats what it looks like, its so beautiful
My interpretarion of OTR is romanticizing your life. With Gaeul having an imaginart wedding & Liz having fun outside, etc. Its almost melodramatic in a way. Romance is often associated with red, which is why i think its a prevelent color. I love the music video sm.
Been waiting for this!! You never fail to show your honesty with your reviews and we love you for it!! ❤
Either Way = Has that gospel pop sound. Your the only one who mentioned this 👍
i abso-freaking-lutely love your reactions so much pd you're amazing
Ahhhh an update from you, gotta binge watch all of them now
OMG YESSS! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS 😭
I love how only in baddie has the old fashioned kpop dance.. and the modern witch take is so awesome.
This was such an amazing comeback I loved all three! The range of IVE is insane!!
Welcome back PD. Hope you are always healthy.🎉
I just got ten thousand notifications, PD. Off The Record is a YYXY MV, I actually forgot how obvious it is until this, but so many of the cool shots are right out of One & Only, some from Heart Attack and New.
I love IVE. I love their music. Their music is iconic. Their discography is flawless. Their title tracks and B-SIDES are really good. Their MVs are top-tier. They are too good.
MISS YOUUU PD YOU'RE BACKK
AYJ: I'm your ult bias now.
All the girls are great. I'm just drawn to Yujin's charm and she's good at everything.
Yes,Yujin is such a pro❤
loved your reaction!!
The goat is back
Yay waited for this for months
i been waiting for this 😍
I fucking love all three of it!
Off the record is by far my favorite IVE song
I subbed over at Patreon for the first time to watch more of your IVE content. I looked forward to this reaction video so much! Thanks for your hardwork as always PD! 🫶
i loved off the record and baddie a lot
Concerning the "달가림 MT" bus. It might just be empty because... MT.
The 달가림 MT sticker is also superimposed on the word "YES".
So the "NO" or MT-ness (emptiness) as opposed to the "YES".
An overly philosophical take on this shot or plain overthinking.
Either way, I'm good.
Waiting for PD's reaction to Dreamcatcher OOTD. keeeep cranking em out!
Best ive reaction ngl...
yo i miss u so much bro. been waiting on you in a long time 🙌
It's been a long time. Welcome back. ☺
OTR is a SOTY
Easily a TOP5 song this year.
Exactly what I wanted to say too that IVE can pull off any concept yet they keep the IVE brand which is interesting to see. If other group do the baddie concept they will definitely associate with blackpink because blackpink pull off the hip hop concept well. But I still can see IVE in baddie concept which is interesting
PD came back with tons of videos, thank you for vid, PD!
22:00 is my leeseo bias wrecker moment 😅 it really stood out to me for some reason as well, i guess she just looks way too adorable and genuine!!
IVE really is on another level!! ❤
TOP-TIER
IVE 4TH GEN LEADERS 💖
They are the best. Immersive listening and mv experience
The massive upload as in 2 DAYS 😳
I really love love them so mush ! Rei ❤
Off the Record is GOD
PD, fun fact: all of them are title track.
FINALLY!!
Yujin is an all rounder and reminds me a bit of seulgi
the hate for baddie is crazyyyy its a banger and im not ashamed to admit it
Baddie is such a bop
Look who's back ❤
I loved Ives EP. Imo the title baddie was the worst song on the album, but it's still solide. I'm going to their concert next year and am really exited about it. Anyway, it's nice to have you back on your channel
For either way: the members represent a supernova, shining really bright when passing by others.
Otherwise the album went away from their posh concept to show that I've has all the colors, that I've can do it all -- Look what I('v)/have.
For the hands, they are Gaeuls and Leeseos
The baddie title track reminds me of Freestyle basketball 2's soundtrack
got straight red velvet feels/vibes with these mvs :3
Where have you been. Very long time to cameback
