I just don't get why people are expecting a bad boy-like or psycho-like song from them when we all know that cake girls doesn't repeat their discography they're always up for something new and different
Yep, you watch a RV video and they may be trying to murder the pizza guy, they may be trying to murder each other, they may be talking to fruit...... bring on the weird!
Red Velvet is one of the only girl-groups in Kpop that everybody spends the next 3 months trying to decipher all the symbolism and hidden meanings in their videos. The Edward Scissorhands moment is actually an inside joke that only ReVeluvs would get, because he is literally the ONLY person Wendy would ever win a game of rock-paper-scissors against.
The yeti scene is a spin on the red light green light from squid games, yeri's the doll, wendy, seulgi and yeti man are the players, yeti man was caught moving just like squidgame, instead of being shot with a gun he was blown because he was caught
I'm really happy that people still find Red Velvet MV/MUSIC weird and different. The first MV I watched from them was DUMB DUMB and they blew my mind. Thanks for this reaction. I learned a lot.
I love how this music video references horror movies and has so many hidden details and elements. Red velvet is so good at giving us an appealing concept while sticking to their original creepy style :D
I have another theory than them just trying to get into a birthday party. I think they could be inside a board game, which could explain all the weird villians and trails/challanges/missions. 5:35 The key even lands on a board game that they are already standing on(in earlier scenes too). Maybe you win the game by getting all the keys from the villains? which they did. btw 1:54 they were playing red light, green light.
But isn't red light green light the game where u move when the doll face doesn't look at you and faces in opposite direction? But the Yeti here is moving only when the girls are moving and is also facing them ??
@@Lyf4rMusic So Yeri is the doll - Seulgi and Wendy are playing along with the Yeti. When they're supposed to be frozen, Yeri uses her power to make the Yeti's fur move, and they say HEY YOU MOVED so he lost and they win. Basically. :)
The “Bear Doll” you were referring to is actually a lore thing called “Reve” it’s supposed to symbol the fandom (I think) and he takes shape of different things. In Happiness (their debut song) he is a pink teddy bear, in Reve Festival Day 1-3 he is a robot, in FMR he’s the box head they have on in their teasers, in this cb he is a teddy bear again :)
ok so if you watch red velvet reacting to their own mv, you will figure out some of the story of this mv. first, they all had powers, for example irene at the start of the mv she spelled some magic to make the guard fall asleep, oh she also use remote to stop the men when they chase rv, and then joy mentioned that her power is levitating things or smth, anyway yeah so they have some kind of power, I'm not sure about the rest tho cuz they only explained briefly. The other thing is about the whole story of this mv, so it turns out that all of the weird places their in is kind of a stage or room that leads them to the main room where the party helded. First, the blue room where they play red light green light with that white thing, actually yeri mentioned that she blow a wind to make the white thing moves so that they could win, so it's probably yeri's power (wind), and they got the key to continue to the next room. Shortly, in every room they will have to defeat the creatures (idk what to call them) to get the key so that they can get into the birthday party. Ok so they did it and finally arrive at the last room where they have to fight the boss (the gingerbread yes). So seulgi fight him, with the chain. Seulgi also mentioned that it kinda connect with her 28 reasons mv (because of the chain). Anyway, seulgi win, they all did, they finally arrive at the birthday party where they ended up being the host lol maybe. Ok that's all I can explain, hope this helps! btw sorry for my bad English ;)
I think Seulgi power can be a thing such as super force or something like that. For Wendy’s power I have no idea but Joy can makes them disappearing too in the scene with Irene (5:37) she just does a hand gesture and the villain vanished
I love how your so dedicated to understand the meanings behind the vdo and the lyrics most reaction vdos dont prepare so much. We really enjoy your content Jordan!!!
This is their first in the SMCU, previously it was speculated they were the red force that EXO fights in the battle of good and evil, but before they released the MV they set up some comics called the story of reve, and as it turns out they are dolls that he plays with and created out of himself, you see the psyco hallway, sappy car wash, they are basically in a candy land esque board game. And the goal is the party! So think of them as overpowered dolls because the settings and the mvs are from reve imagination, and they are just the dolls reve play with.
oh i didnt know that this was from the SMCU! but i still think they are somewhat villains in the theory, "monster" by seulgi and irene made me think they were also the black mamba from aespa videos
The second one is actually a common Korean game called “the hibiscus flower has bloomed” or famously known as the similar game “Red Light Green Light” (if you know Squid Game)! 😊
This was the most enjoyable reaction I've seen to a red velvet video. I'm not going to lie... I just go around watching to see who will gush over my Wendy but this was great 😍🤭💙💙💙
@@Zelinkondorf well im a reveluv bcoz im so used to it now i dont find it weird anymore , for me its weird for them to do such as Beautiful christmas with aespa another weird group to have that concept Anyway stream Beautiful christmas it's so good , it's on repeat in my head
@@ZelinkondorfFor us, reveluvs, it's not so strange, I was already expecting this type of MV for birthday, so I wasn't surprised, however, I didn't think they would bring this type of concept right after feel my rhythm
"wasn't exactly what i was expecting for a song titled birthday" well, don't expect a normal birthday song if that artist is from sm ent. nct has 3 song with birthday on the title but it's different from your expectations😆
I like long shots, I wanna be able to see them instead of zoom past them really quick like what? lol I wanna appreciate their beauty and dance. especially when it comes to live performances.
They actually got past the yeti by playing "red light green light", that's also why the yeti only moved with them. The yeti got caught moving by Yeri an had to give them the key due to his loss.
I am so happy that the SMCU still continues!! I knew I HAD to watch this when I found out it was released. Thanks for always explaining everything, in such an easy and fun way to understand, love ur videos!!
I like the villain interpretation, because I remember when the SMCU was announced after aespa debuted and introduced the world of KWANGYA, fans speculated that some SM groups would be "heroes" and some would be "villains", and that Red Velvet would be "villains" 😂 This was thought up well before "Birthday" by Red Velvet dropped, so perhaps there are some parts of their discography that take on some darker undertones that give off a "villain" vibe!
The music video was definitely weird and that's why I love it. Joy is also ❤🔥. I know that everyone focuses on the original visual Irene, but the heatwaves coming off of Joy were correct. She's a beautiful woman.
It's no red velvet where you won't see any violence bringing up in a most adorable way,, Jorden please React to Red Velvet's Zimzalabim and Seulgi's 28 reasons
I have seen the music video so many times because I am a big fan of Red Velvet, but this is the first time I understand the meaning of the music video, thank you, you are a genius and Red Velvet are so creative
Red Velvet being weird has always been an essential element that makes them so great. Mainstream...but weird. So great. F(x) + SNSD birthed the most amazing group!
Love this!!! Thank you, some of your deductions really helped explain some things to me. When I saw this video, I thought it was a reminder to all that, you may think we’re done and gone, but we’ll show you. Lol. Love this group!!!
I really love your reaction, it makes the viewers understand the music video more. It would be great if you react to BIBI-Animal Farm music video, the music and the video is very great
If im correct, the yeti scene is a popular slavic party game called „baba yaga”. So when she blew on him the hair moved and he moved so he lost, thats why they got the key
I feel like, as fun as the crazily edited MVs can be, there’s a tendency for some modern kpop mvs to rely fully on editing and visuals and not have much beyond that. So I love seeing music videos with more going on than that, which RV always gives me
Best to think of the key meaning as a world tour :) We saw Seoul, Manila, Paris, New York and Los Angeles. Looks like the girls are finally going on a big tour.
For that scene with the blue formation thing and the yeti, I'm pretty sure they were playing red light green light for the key but yeri blew on the yeti so his hair moved and wendy, seulgi, yeri "defeated" him and won the key to the next room
i have an idea abt the game of go. go is a game, and the heart represents love… “love is a game you can’t control” = red velvet line from russian roulette
Hey Jordan, i just saw the part where you said you’re curious about what the teddy bear means, and he’s the reve!!! yes, the reve from for example, the reve festival!! red velvet posted a series of images in hq form called “The Story of ReVe”!! the story explains everything! search for it, i recommend a lot! the mv became so much clear for me after i saw his story!
You're not supposed to move when the one counting looks at you. That's how they won over the Yeti. They made it ( aka cheated ) so that his coat moved ( due to her blowing ) which counts as a failure.
The yeti scene is a game! I belive it's called something like "the doll falls"? 1 player counts while all the others try to reach them. A player looses if they get caught moving when the counting player stops singing and turns around. The yeti didn't move, the girls cheated their way to get the key by blowing.
In the yeti scene, they make a deal with him to play a game just like the squid game. If he lost, he would give the keys, and yeri blew at him and made it look like he moved, so he lost.
The yeti scene is them playing red light green light and they won when Yeri blew on him bc it made his fur move which is technically him moving while she was looking
The teddy bear is ReVe and that is their ally who requires summoning. They need many keys because each section has a boss to defeat via some game and each give a key to progress to the next dungeon like in a video game. Gingerbread man is final boss and they defeat him and use Wendy’s size manipulation power to turn him into the cake decoration
ITZY "Chesire" coming soon :)
I knew it~
Would you be able to react to Lexie Liu’s FORTUNA and Magician?? Her songs released 4 days ago!!
Could you do Wild Flower by RM (ft. youjeen)
Bruh pls, also Ateez Paradigm
yayayayyaya
I just don't get why people are expecting a bad boy-like or psycho-like song from them when we all know that cake girls doesn't repeat their discography they're always up for something new and different
FR not for nothing they are Queens of Versatility
Yeah I love them for that but the song itself is bad in my opinion
fr, it's ok if they don't like the song but why are they acting surprised lmao, this is such a red velvet thing to do
they even said that they like how they make a variety of songs in their MV reaction video, it is also a reason why a lot of reveluvs are reveluvs.
@@thisuserceasedtoexist fr
The weirder their concept gets, the more i love

because wendy always loose in games 😂

😱
Yeti man also reminded me of the flower creature from Rookie.
I thought they blew on him to make him “move” cuz they weren’t playing fair
@@reggiebell7291 It's exactly that, Yeri used her powers to make him move
@@reggiebell7291 This is the real thing - she used her power to make him "move" - gotcha Yeti!

honestly idk how red light green light is related to the yeti guy, tho it just reminds me of the red fur dude in dont hug me im scared
But isn't red light green light the game where u move when the doll face doesn't look at you and faces in opposite direction? But the Yeti here is moving only when the girls are moving and is also facing them ??

I love how your so dedicated to understand the meanings behind the vdo and the lyrics most reaction vdos dont prepare so much. We really enjoy your content Jordan!!!
I love red velvets discography, especially Jordan breaking it down! Such a good video!
Each member of Red Velvet have power in this music video
Red velvet in a villain party is so red velvet actually.
Thank you so much for this reaction it was the best.

Always love your breakdowns for the Red Velvet MVs bcoz it makes me understand it in a new light :)
Cool! Hope to see ITZY Cheshire next🖤
Yass
Yes Cheshire next🥺
yess cheshire pleasee
You stole my word💀💀
YESSSS
This was the most enjoyable reaction I've seen to a red velvet video. I'm not going to lie... I just go around watching to see who will gush over my Wendy but this was great 😍🤭💙💙💙
This is really what I also do... let's see how melts over Wendy's run.... or her baaaaaam yeahyeah.... hahahaha :D
This is such an entertaining MV and perfectly fits Red Velvet. Thanks for the breakdown and, as always, great job!
Thank you Jordan for researching ever character in the mv of Red Velvet.
Only ReVeluv will know what happening 😂😂😂 RedVelvet always be weird but I love it.
I'm sure Red Velvet refer Squid Game on the MV. From Animal mask to Green Light, Red Light game in the Blue room
OH YEAH I THOUGHT SOOO!
Thank you for explaining I was waiting for your reaction to RED VELVET
I like your reaction. Birthday MV so weird and fun. It's very Red Velvet that's why they're my favorite girlgroup
Red Velvet owns this concept fr 🤩
It was wonderful actually. If you go into every comeback expecting something, you'll always be disappointed.
I feel like when I watch sm music videos I don’t need to take time to understand the story line because Jordan will do it for me😆
OMG THANK YOU I LOVE HOW U INTERPRETED THIS MV SO MUCH (bcs I kinda lost what happen to the whole MV tbh lmao😭)
Scam 🙄
Red Velvet is the weirdest music video in kpop but you gonna love them.
if you are a Reveluv , it is definitely not weird
Oh no. It's still weird. And that's the reason we are Reveluv
@@Zelinkondorf well im a reveluv bcoz im so used to it now i dont find it weird anymore , for me its weird for them to do such as Beautiful christmas with aespa another weird group to have that concept

Pls do cheshire by ITZY :)
BTW GREAT VIDEO- I wasn't expecting this storyline to be so- twisted-
The song sounds good and the mv looks so interesting!
The word weird was literally for RV only. They own it.
I assume, the birthday party was for mystical or magical beings, so the gingerbread man rejected, but you know RV are super space witches 😁
Finally, the reaction from Jordan Orme to Red Velvet
I AM WAITING FOR YOU REACTION ON ITZY'S CHESHIRE. THE EDITING IS FIRE AS USUAL!!
They actually got past the yeti by playing "red light green light", that's also why the yeti only moved with them. The yeti got caught moving by Yeri an had to give them the key due to his loss.
I am so happy that the SMCU still continues!! I knew I HAD to watch this when I found out it was released. Thanks for always explaining everything, in such an easy and fun way to understand, love ur videos!!
i love how bright their vocals are in here ❤
plus i don't know how many times i watched the behind-the-scene recording 😂 it's so fun and funny ❤
Best reaction ever! Genius! I understand this music video storyline now. Thanks Jordan!
This is just normal Red Velvet, Jordan.

The music video was definitely weird and that's why I love it.
Joy is also ❤🔥. I know that everyone focuses on the original visual Irene, but the heatwaves coming off of Joy were correct. She's a beautiful woman.
the song and mv gives zimzalabim vibes, that's why i love it too

the video is fun but the song is killer. i'd like to see a dance video of the song as well.
2:30 YESSSS!!!!! I can't wait see David Tennant once again!!!! If u know, u know. Allons-y!
😍😊💙💙😊😍
The Yeti part is when Yeri sees someone moves, they will be lose. That's why when Yeri blows the wind, Yeti's hair moves, so Yeti loses.
omggg this ones nice!! hope u do cheshire by itzy next
Early! Second time requesting Cheshire by ITZY!
Red velvet never disappointed with their mv visuals
9:51 now we know why they couldn't afford vfx coffee spilling out of the cup
I love your interpretation!! 🎉
Needed to hear this since its almost my birthday!
Thanks for reacting to this queens
I love their aesthetic and concept so much
I really enjoy how you explain all the details because it helps me a lot to understand it more hoping for more Red Velvet reaction from you
The only person Wendy can beat in rock paper scissors!
This is what I was thinking ahahaha Like awww they gave Wendy a rigged game for her to win, that's so nice
Can’t wait to see Cheshire also this song is sooooo good!!!
Can you please breakdown itzy's cheshire?
It is always great when pop music goes beyond being just entertainment into becoming art.
MY FAVORITE LINE IS YERIS “I got I got I got a special day”
I really love your reaction, it makes the viewers understand the music video more.
It would be great if you react to BIBI-Animal Farm music video, the music and the video is very great

The chains connection is from seulgi's 28 reasons
What i want to know is why she was standing on the symbol to summon a demon made of flowers
You're not supposed to move when the one counting looks at you. That's how they won over the Yeti. They made it ( aka cheated ) so that his coat moved ( due to her blowing ) which counts as a failure.
The yeti scene is a game! I belive it's called something like "the doll falls"? 1 player counts while all the others try to reach them. A player looses if they get caught moving when the counting player stops singing and turns around.
The yeti didn't move, the girls cheated their way to get the key by blowing.
Thank you sir, now i finally get what the MV means
the fact this video was released on my dads *birthday* is perfect! (2 dec)
That's why i love red velvet
I love how K-pop is just like a bunch of match cards put together and we didn’t know it😮😅😢😊😂🎉❤
Really love your reactions! Can you do ITZY'S CHESIRE next? Thank youu! 💜
Their name is Red Velvet, and they want to party! Love their weird concepts
yeti, yeti the janitor LMFAO 🤣
3:17 The Yeti lost the game (Green light, red light) and give them the key Lol
Thank you so much. I understand the MV much better now
In the yeti scene, they make a deal with him to play a game just like the squid game. If he lost, he would give the keys, and yeri blew at him and made it look like he moved, so he lost.
The yeti scene is them playing red light green light and they won when Yeri blew on him bc it made his fur move which is technically him moving while she was looking
The teddy bear is ReVe and that is their ally who requires summoning. They need many keys because each section has a boss to defeat via some game and each give a key to progress to the next dungeon like in a video game. Gingerbread man is final boss and they defeat him and use Wendy’s size manipulation power to turn him into the cake decoration
I LOVE HOW YOU FOUND OUT THE MORAL OF THE STORY IN THIS MV 🔥
I love you Red Velvet💝
