idk something about nct dream feels like a boost of serotonin
Trueee
Yes, I listen to this song when I am heading to work, and the entire Glitch Mode album pumps me up for work. 🥰
Technically PD said "I was already a massive fan, but this comeback turned me into an air conditioner!" 😁 The whole album is awesome, the music video is amazing, the vocals are great and the dance 10/10!!
That switch between the rock and the normal song was ICONIC, SM is the only company that can do this type of switches without sounding bad. YES JYP IM TALKING ABOUT YOU
lol fr
LMAOOOO. Called out JYP and you're 100% right.
What do you mean of it ??
Ikr
yes omg exactly
mark will always find a way to shine in mvs/performances and songs. he didn't have a full verse (which is rare for a main rapper like mark...) but still he stood out and in my opinion his intro part is the killing part of the song!
i didn't even notice that he didn't have full verse until someone complained yesterday lol
He was all over the mv and choreography. His voice is also heard throughout and he was the center for alot of the main parts of the choreography. They definitely didn’t skimp on mark moments for this comeback.
there's a lack of mark and haechan in this song but it's probably purposeful so the dreamies won't have to cover their parts in shows where they're gone usually during the awards season. not really sure but it seems like this for me.
@@rosemarieclairevalencia2812 Tbh, its not noticeable to me. Maybe because I am OT7 fan. Its funny that people notice that they have less part in here but didn't mentioned Jisung
Chenle said they played the song at 0.5 speed and danced 2 times faster while filming to get the effect in the mv
Wow cool where did he say that
@@ajdatoni7747 in the online press conference with mc doyoung
It's actually renjun but yeah it's really cool. im looking forward for their live performancesss
@@onyourwinty oops, you're right, my bad! Guess my brain wanted it to be chenle lol
It would be nice if they have behind the scenes of it
NCT just never disappoints, but there's something really special about the Dreamies and their title tracks, something so refreshing and remarkable, so many catchy moments that you wanna do along straight away, and of course another killer choreo! Flow, vocals, chorus, dance break, EVERYTHING IS FIRE! Edit: Changed tricks to tracks LOL
Dreamies have officially blown up, like korean media mentions them together with the currently highest selling korean act in the world. As for your observations: the Mark and Haechan situation is a nightmare tbh and I don't think SM thought the NCT system through, but at least they took it into consideration more than usual that both will pretty soon drop out of Dream promos to prepare 127's tour, that's why they probably didn't get the amount of lines they usually get. As for Jeno and Jaemin: Glitch Mode is a rap heavy song, some like it some don't, but that explains why those 2 are more prominent (plus Renjun who's doing the most vocals on this tracks). Mark's lines will probably go to Jisung and Chenle usually takes most of Haechans lines when those two don't promote with Dream.
as an asteroid, it's sad to see jisung only having 6 seconds in glitch mode and then probs covering mark's lines, wished SM gave jisung more opportunities to show his vocals (and rap), but they don't even push him as a main dancer so I'm honestly not surprised anymore...
and yea I agree that maybe in the upcoming comebacks, dream will need to comeback as ot5 since markhyuck will be very busy for 127's tour (and considering quarantine they probs can't fly back and forth anymore), and dreamzens do need to remember that they are a rotational unit like nct u, but have fixed members soo. tbh I hope that dream has a ot5 comeback during 127's tour to keep the brand active (or maybe wayv or new unit debut lol), so that it wouldn't burden the two too much and they would only need to focus on their tour and wouldn't need to miss out on any dream promotions (even though this is sad, it is what's best for the group since I feel that back then they used to delay dream's comebacks due to haechan's conflicting schedules)
as for 127, idek if they are coming back this year (maybe a mini album?) it seems that they're focusing more on solo activities + world tour, and taeil's enlistment so he'll (hopefully SM??) have a solo album yayy :))
Exactly
I don't mean to be negative but I'd like to see the 7 performance I really hate this sm thing of taking Mark and Haechan away during promotions
SM did what now?
It makes me so happy to see your journey to becoming a fan of the dreamies, it makes me feel like a proud mom
It’s cool how they always manage to do something different every comeback while still keeping the neo culture vibe.
that’s how SM works. Stick with the main concept.👏🏻
@@firakhairunnisarania omg exactly!
One of my fav parts of this song is Matk listing off the digits of the speed of light (299,792 m/s) 😂 I just appreciate that as a physicist
But he missed the last three digits....do you think it means something!!? Like those three digits could mean something deep!!!!
@@manjughosh9425 ooooo that's a good point!! 🤔
Omggg I've been thinking so hard what those numbers could be, turns out the answer is in the lyric itself lolll
Vacuum speed hahaha
Found out my cousin’s friends husband helped produce glitch mode and now idk how to feel bc this song is such a banger
Like fr..??💀
Wow
I wish we got more jisung tho since he’s my dream bias
same
Same 🥺
SAMEEEEEEEE and popping is his specialty it would have been perfect 😭
Same, a true allrounder: can sing, dance and rap really well.
the producers are CRAZY for this and the choreography is so genius
10/10 for me
Renjun really out here looking like a baby Ten with this look, it suits him so well!
I was thinking this EXACT thing. And Ten is my bias so I was both appreciative and triggered at the same time 😭
@@shekinahsworld7228 same! 😂❤️
I think it's about time that we get more Jeno and Jaemin rapper sections especially Jaemin and Jisung always get half of a rap verse. I think Mark brings a way different sound so when he did come in he gave variety he always has hype in his voice
you don’t know how wide i smiled when you said it’s your first comeback as a fan. WELCOME TO THE FAMILY
i was literally waiting for this reaction the whole day and the intro was so relatable like its my first comeback as a fan and also nct dream currently my fave sub unit
I am sorry I am writing going just 2 minutes in the video but the fact that you went from NCT DREAM's music is not my cup of tea to they are my favourite sub-unit in NCT makes me very happy! Welcome on board, Pd-nim.
I was thinking the same! Just remembered one of his previous videos and we love this character development. Dreamies power is no joke
@@MsSophLee I know! As someone else said I feel like a proud Mom.
@Lili Kang Yeah...he loved Hello Future. Actually he likes the song of Chewing Gum too. Don't spread wrong information please.
everything about this comeback is a 10/10, all of the songs in the album are so well-produced and the vocals are heavenly!
Yassss
Teddy bear is my absolute favorite so far !
10:21 if you notice but The jeno pants have a rope that moves naturally, this indicates that they are really dancing without any modification
Thry are. They slowed it down .5 times while recording it and then sped up in thr mv to show the effects. This was mentioned during their live prior to the mv release.
When I first saw the buffering in the dance I was like what how did they dance like that!! Apparently they recorded that part with the music playing at .5 speed, then sped up the video by 2x. A simple effect but genius addition to the video.
Sm’s been picking out absolute bangers for it’s artists this year, like seriously. Feels like 2018 once again~
Yup, dream and red velvet album this year really cheff kiss
You gotta check out the album, it's another no skip :D
Period
it's literally incredible
those robotic/buffering scenes were actually very interesting to watch and I'm lowkey waiting for the behind the scenes to drop because during the press conference, I think it was Renjun who said they danced with the song in 0.5 speed and the footage got sped up during the editing, so that would explain how it looks real and robotic at the same time
I was literally buffering while watching the MV for the first time. I was really overwhelmed. Seriously high quality music they never disappoint. I can't wait for the performance and the dance practice.
"its short but haechan nail it" YEEEEESSS
Not sure if they take it into account how mark and haechan won't always perform the song with them because of the 127 tour, so I'd assume both of that they got less lines because of this but could totally be a coincidence. Easier to distribute their parts if there's less of them or the focus isn't on them in the original.
Oh that’s so right!
mark actually has the most lines technically! he just didn't get a full rap verse
127 tour? When👁👄👁
but at least mark has adlibs whereas haechan….
@@cremepuffle May till the end of June, they have a Japan Dome Tour, and they might continue the rest of the world tour during summer
I really love how PD reacts not just for NCT but to all kpop groups because there's the respect and understanding of the concept and he always try to share his opinion in a very sincere and clear manner...not sugar coating it but you really feel that PD understood what he heard and tries to educate us as well with the meaning of the song or the title. Keep it up PD we realy appreciate it🤗💓💓
as much as i love mark lee, i am glad that other members got to shine a bit more in this one. however, still not getting enough jisung!!
And surprisingly haechan 😦
I have heard this line enough , for other members to shine , its not necessary to bring up mark all the time , he doesnt get the most lines ever but he hardly gets any lines in dream and u still think he needs to cut his parts for others to shine
@@kpoppergirl6235 if you look at the line distribution video of the song, he’s still has the most lines and has center time in the dance break, so I wouldnt worry about his parts being cut…
@@clandestinecoherence sorry to say those are just adlibs not lines , you cant hear any rap part from him , just mere adlibs here and there , a main rapper shouldnt be treated that way
If SM can't push Jisung as the Main Dancer, then atleast give the man some lines, like I get the Jisung is only a sub-rapper, so having many lines in a rap-based song is quite impossible but atleast treat him as THE main dancer that he is. He didn't even get a proper dance break
6:23 THAT WAS ME AFTER LISTENING THE TITLE! CAN'T WAIT FOR THE REPACK, AND!! if that will go harder than hello future...WELL IM READY.
wait no you're kidding!!! i was completly shocked when he said that it's just shy of one year since hot sauce. i don't believe that. time has really gone by so quickly
"It's short but Haechan nailed it!"
Ace things :)
witnessing how pd went from "not watching the chewing gum mv cause they feel that nct dream concept is not for them" to turning into "nct dream might be one of my top boy groups and favorite nct team" is a journey
Ok. Here is a theory. I would need to confirm it from ReacttotheK's reaction. But I think the 2nd pre-chorus by CHENLE actually switches into the bridge done by Haechan and Renjun. I thought the switchup was similar to a transition to bridge. Otherwise, this song has no bridge and it is indeed an entire pre-chorus shifting to a dance break and then to a final chorus.
It totally does! They have two bridges! That's maybe why the song sounded so short during the first listen because the structure isn't the one with intro- verse - pre chorus - chorus - verse - pre chorus - chorus - bridge (1 + 2) - chorus - ending, but this one has the following structure : (small intro -) chorus - verse - pre chorus - chorus - verse - shortened pre chorus - vocal bridge - dance break/interlude - rap bridge - chorus
It's really interesting and the switch up towards the vocal bridge was actually very natural while being unexpected at first listen, then the switch up with the rock elements just made everything even better!
@@miyabihyatt Thank you for explaining it in such a detailed manner. It makes things much clearer. And I agree! The transition to the bridge was so seamless. It was very tasteful. Kind of reminds me slightly of Punch because I think Punch also had such a transition from a shortened pre-chorus to bridge. This was a lot more fluid as a transition. Most people didn't even notice that we actually moved to the bridge, which I found very interesting. And I also liked how well it flowed from the dance break interlude to the final chorus. This song had it's weird elements but it was very organically blended. That's why I liked this song a lot! Sorry I wrote such a huge answer but I thought I should share.
For me it was interesting that they used a Rock n Roll sound for the dance break (or was it the bridge 😅) while the pop punk genre is more on trend now.
SM things.
They actually drag this sound throughout lot of songs, and I honestly can't complain.
@@Damonistique 🤨
The whole album destroyed me. Dream is insanely good, and I can't wait to hear what their music is gonna sound like in the near future like??
Mark wrote all the rap part so I think he also considering who suite with the line/line and who can stood up the lyrics
THIS is the perfect example of how a song can be kind of all over the place but still be cohesive & GOOD. I'm generally SM's bitch - particularly for their boy groups - but the ONLY main title track I truly loved in 2021 was Don't Fight the Feeling. I was always either waiting for the repackage to give me what I really wanted or just left unsatisfied w/ EPs. Glitch Mode delivers on the first try, though, & now I'm more hopeful about the rest of the year. I'm also a bit surprised by the relative lack of Mark & Haechan in the song, but I actually wouldn't be surprised if they either suggested it or are at least totally cool with it after the insanity that was their schedule last year.
Also, not SM going: Holy shit! We finally gave in & let Dream do a full album & people loved it?? And it won a Daesang?!? Guess we better do that again!
Glitch mode isn't sm's most "all over the place" song structurally wise tho. The only unexpected section is the electric guitar breakdown, which was not at all surprising if you've been following what nct and other sm groups have been releasing for the past 2 years. On the contrary, glitch mode felt super cohesive and not that "out there", with a few minimal alterations between first and second verses/pre-choruses/choruses (slightly changing up the melody and adding a small section in the second pre-chorus like they love to do in other nct songs, adding some synths as the intro plays again as chorus). I was not lost listening to it, compared to sticker or universe. Don't get me wrong, i love these two songs, but i am also glad sm is able to still release more "classic" title tracks while still keeping their new sound.
Yeah interesting mark doesn’t have a full part but neither does jisung I think. Also mark wrote the rap for the song I think so it would be so interesting to see how and why they divided it the way they did!
haechan neither :(
@@Haedea maybe because 127 will go to tour so thats why. plus haechan already got many lines in hello future??
(no hate for markhae because they deserve better)
Mark is a mai rapper but jisung is just a sub rapper , i dont think they can be compared
@@kpoppergirl6235the comments doesn't even compare 😭 ❓
@@ae-winter9916 only hc got lots of lines , mk didnt get much lines in hello future too
Love the story: when you start falling in love you start "glitching"--you can't talk straight and you're not as cool as you think...then end up not showing up for the date bec you just got so scared to disappoint her. Blooming love now just being iced out 🥰 it!
THE ALBUM IS SO GOOOD TOO
NCT Dream have been very consistent since hot sauce, they found their sound and keeps on coming back with it. It’s crazy honestly..
I love how you got the "glitch move"... You have an amazing eye and perspective...
There something special about NCT Dream that I cannot explain. I became a fan during Hello Future era too!
That whiny synth sound that accompanies the second part of the chorus throughout the song is incredible.
It kind of contextualises the chord change/key change (I don't know music). I can't listen to that part without getting excited.
SM always sets a new standard for the kpop music industry. Luv how they always come up with new ideas with every NCT group comeback.
This is my jam!! Such a catchy chorus and the mv is great. They used the setting of a gamestore. Which is cute. Everyone knows about buffering problems one way or the other lol. But yeah I like this allot
oh my god YESSS, PD you gotta check out the album it's JAW DROPPING
That's what i actually felt when i first watched and heard this. 😂 i felt like my mind was lagging so i had to watch it over and over again to fully absorb the music. 😂
I'm really waiting for that dance practice video to see them do that glitch move \ToT/ perhaps it's an editing thing but I know those guys are great with their choreos!
I've been loving Dream's music more and more and this is my favourite comeback they've ever had! Dream's music is just on another level lately and I'm so here for it. Everyone stood out in this MV but Renjun and Chenle really killed it with the vocals 😍
I love the guitar rock part.
sm showing it how its done 'no one is taking the world experimental genre and renamed it into their genre. this is EXPERIMENTAL'
we're having so many MVs this month and I ain't complaining
When I saw the mv I thought 'I bet PD has to watch it at least two times haha' and I was right, haha xD
I was waiting to watch your thoughts about this
SM really got me listening 3 times before I can process a song lately but it is always worth it
the album is SO GOOD they gave a good mix of hype fun songs with wholesome soft songs. i can’t wait to see their live performances
god the dreamies are so insane they never disappoint
There are a lot of things you point out in songs and MVs that make me love them even more. I really appreciate your reactions
The album really non skip album I'm not lying the bside literally amazing
Feel good music. The glitch dance aspect is perfection.
When I saw the mv, I knew that PD is gonna love this! I cannot wait for the repackaged!
As for the glitching dance moves, they mentioned that they danced faster with a 2x speed to get that result.
I love how you analyzed the sounds and the concept as well! Your reactions are always super detail oriented.
i am so happy that my favorite reactor likes glitch mode and gives it a rate of 10/10
There's no 2nd chorus. The moment after Chenle's pre chorus, it's already the bridge
Nct dream is just THAT good
NCT never disappoints me ever. All of their songs are just magnificent. The producers did a good Job!
True fact
It's nice for you to have them as your favourite nct unit when you said on you earlier videos that you were not their target audience when you first reacted to them. ♥️♥️♥️ Lots of love PD.
GLITCJ MODE MAKES ME LEVITATE
You really do my favourite reactions ahh. The song is really so good!! I'm also excited to see it live omg
OMGGG ME TOOO IM SO EXCITED FOR THE CHOREOOO!!
sad about the song being over? ME TOO!!
Totally random but your background lights match the MV so well haha
I love how smiley and soft PD gets when he really enjoys a song ☺️🥰
Another time of the year where we dedicated our time for NCT DREAM. They just never fail to give us endless full meal content whenever they come back. 🙏💚 My heart is filled with them, Im so happy they also became 2 million sellers omg.
Haechan naturally nailed every part of their music, his harmony, high notes, rap. Unfortunately he doesn't have many parts in Glitch Mode.
glitch mode is definitely my favorite title track now
Although I don’t follow many of the artists whose music you react to I still really enjoy a lot of your videos. 😊👍🏼
14:53 "When Haechan unlocks his inner ice powers" I wheezed! This has got to be one of the best things ever said! After composing myself again I replayed it like 10 times 😂
Accidentally discovering nct dream was the best thing that ever happened to me,,, I don't think I went back to my usual taste of music cuz nct dream is my new standard now. The talent, the visuals, the stage presence are insane!!
Yoooo, thank you for 10 out of 10!! because the song is so seamless in every transitions it's crazy!
Mork Lee slowly creeping into one of my fav's
@14:45 SuJu is actually the first one who have Winter/Spring MV from SM this year with Callin' MV Winter for Spring ver..
They actually danced 0,5x faster I think. They said that in the press conference
Mark has this 'speciality' in him... No matter what song, what genre, what concept, what unit, he always find a way to shine & make his part memorable & iconic
PD is the secret super fan of nct dream, he even noticed that renjun cut his hair!!! love
still shocked by Mark's juicy couture pants
NCT always taking you on a journey with their songs :D As expected~~~
10:35: It's practical but also the members said that they slow the song down my 0.5 seconds at the "glitch" point. So that when they play it back in normal speed that portion of the choreograph looks really mechanincal
Thank you so much PD for liking NCT Dream in general. Always happy for your video reaction of them.
Fun fact: 299 792 km/s is the actual speed of light, which is why they sing "light. speed. bass. drop." in the bridge right after professor Mark Lee raps that number out.
I almost cried watching gltch mode for the first time
i didn't notice the aespa style switch :o it felt so natural and so well blended
The buffering choreo is a cheff kissssssss
i can tell that u love nct dream through ur expression hahaha i love that reaction! from now on i'll watch to ur nct dream's reaction videosss
Idk why but watching this made me go back to the feelings I've had in November/December of 2019 - I remember watching NCT Dream concerts and crying with whole stadium and members, bc we thought Dream is over (after 2020 the 00's would graduate like Mark previously did). It was devastating to see. And then April of 2020 came and we got the announcement that Mark is coming back and Dream is a fixed unit. Then we got rushed Reload era with 6Dream and a year wait for an full album for a 5 year old group. The emotions, man.
But everything was worth the wait, because Dream is exceeding expectations left and right. I love Hot Sauce and then Hello Future, but this is my favourite album in NCT so far. It's amazing.
In conclusion tho, Lee Haechan is Elsa and I'm kinda sad that he is so much in the back of the MV :(
i had the same reaction to that rock bridge, like WHERE did that come from!!! it sounds incredible & it's one of my favorite parts of the song- I just wasn't expecting it lmao
I had the same thought about the choreo vs editing/camera work on some of the dance shots - I couldnt tell what was happening lol
NCT (and SM) showing a jype how to combine style😌.. again..👀🤭🫥hshshs
9:13 I love how you were wondering about whether they did some post-enhancement in their dance because I've been replaying those scenes over and over again, trying to figure it out as well! It's so satisfying but I have no idea how they did it lmao Your idea with the framerate makes a lot of sense!
