See what happened with Victon .The pop/cute vibes are popular and inforced till the artist decides to be free and often it means sexy or dark concept tho in his case in is based on his expirience
In my personal experience with kpop I've never heard a comeback song like this. It's so raw and personal not something you hear in a title track. Usually this type of song is saved as a b side track. And I 100% love that he made this a single.
I'm not comparing, but didn't Jackson Wang's Bullet to the Heart have a similar feel, too. Both talk about internal struggles, and are able to portray those feelings in their lyrics and visuals. I really love both artists and song 😄. Is it maybe because they have their own companies, that they are able to do this?
@@kirsten7770 oh, well it's really good, and I definitely recommend giving it a listen. I don't know if his solo work counts as kpop, but it shares the same raw-ness and real-ness of Kang Daniel's song. 😊
I am so glad that these type of (raw) songs are out there. We're so afraid of being 'vulnerable' when in actuality it's the very thing that connects us all. I surely hope this will allow others to be able to express the struggles they experienced and seek help etc.
Suga the last B side from his mixtape Agust D .All of his songs are personal and dark because h deals with depression social anxiety and suicidal thoughts but The last is the one that is so raw that it hurts especially if you relate
this is such a meaningful comeback. but kang daniel is an amazing soloist. he literally brings everything to the table on his own. his music speaks so much to me. truly incredible
the music video and lyrics just screams anxiety for me. The way the 'paranoia' was portrayed was not from a physical form, its almost like what is shown is representing what people with anxiety feel. A large fear based from only your mind. This could also be interpreted by many different mental illnesses too. especially the spike wall that goes on top of him, I resonated incredibly well with that (what my anxiety feel like personally). Also the woman whispering in his ear when he was just walking around and the man trying to attack him at the end when he was safely in his bed.
You are right. Kang Daniel wrote the lyrics based on his struggles with anxiety and panic attack, but he says he is better now. I hope you are doing better too.
You are absolutely right. The first time i watched this MV, i didn't understand the lyrics. But by watching the video, i can some part understand that he is talking about his fear and anxiety. Understanding the lyrics makes this song more meaningful
That red light flash in his right eye means something, as before in the mv you see the monster/demon depicted with that same red eye. I think it might mean that that demon doesn’t really exist, rather it’s himself that’s torturing him in the quiet moments, as in the final chorus he himself has that red eye flash.
2:21 the formation of him and the dancers forms an eye. So the creapy looking circus stage is also an eye shape. So he sings that even when he closes his eyes they live on the dark (you can't see anything with closed eyes). The dancers approach him in a creepy way like they are the paranoia. I love the symbolism.
@@smwatertasteslikewater they are daniels former wanna one members, they both have beautiful voices 😍 ha sungwoon is also hosting a radio show atm and is doing sooo great i love listening to him and ong seungwu appeared in some kdramas, he's a very good actor!!
i was thinking the same waaayyyy OMG like they have somethin similar but dunno what is that AND BOTH OF THEM HAD A VERY AMAZING COMEBACK THIS TIME AND THIS COMEBACK ARE THE MOST FAV FROM ME
I can't believe Kpop Stans still sleep on Daniel. Daniel definitely deserves more exposure and support for such unique personality and high quality works
Kang Daniel is very artistic and creative and it shows in his work. He is very talented and that does not need to be said cos his talent speaks for itself. The mv is 🔥🔥🔥
Daniel's truly a rarely-seen-kind male soloist in k-pop industry. the way he produces his music works is very his own style, not conforming to anything familiar so far, which I like the most. i can't wait to see him grow more and more ppl get to know him
Thank you for reacting to Kang Daniel's PARANOIA. Please keep supporting him in the future. #강다니엘 #KANGDANIEL #PARANOIA #다니티_마음_깊숙이_파고든_다니엘의_순간 #KONNECTEntertainment
At minute 9.59, you will see that the hand that is picking up the glass has another hand appear. And that is the same important little point that if not noticed, no one will be able to see it.
omg I never noticed this, I always thought it was his own other hand but it comes out of the same sleeve, like from inside him! Thanks for pointing that out!
When you said he looks like a king, yes he is When you said he is an artist, definitely yes he is And the way you said we’re kind of sweet instead of annoying when we keep repeating say to you to react on Kang Daniel Paranoia, oh man he deserves to get the recognition from everyone, like he deserved to get known by his hard work, his passion and his talent 😊 Thank you so much for reacting to Kang Daniel, I hope you could do it again when the next album is coming ! 😊
Okay, the song is great (I agree with all your points on it). But choreo is amazing: it tells the whole story without needing lyrics or visual support. You can tell that he's being possessed by something, fighting it and then losing himself to it. Just great. And the backup dancers do an incredible job at being demonic minions haha I loved the production for the MV. This is just my thing. I didn't know Kang Daniel and I'm jut wowed by this whole comeback, so I share your enthusiasm
"He's not just a kpop musician or an idol, Kang Daniel is a true artist", that I definitely agree! Been following him since Magenta era and wow guy is truly an artist! he always serves and delivers. His discography dont miss, all songs "chef kiss" 💕❤
Daniel said that the choreography is like “Chuunibyou (Eight Grade Syndrome), he wanted it to be dark and brutal. Lyrics: “Don’t You” He covers his eye, because that’s where the darkness spreads, and he doesn’t want anyone to see it. Then when he grabs his jaw and moves his hand away, it’s him pulling it out, He’s looking at it thinking “why is my jaw out”? Then he grabs his heart and pulls it out, thinking “why is it here” and he throws it away. Then he grabs his throat and pulls that out too. Daniel explained this on Radio Star. The choreography is really artistically done.
I’ve watched this MV countless times and until now, I still get chills! Partly because of the creepy theme, but mostly because Daniel was experiencing all this and he’s so brave to share it with the world
Thank you for your review and for the shout-out. I'm glad we didn't annoy you. Daniel wrote this song about his darkest times when he was fighting depression and anxiety/inner demons. You got it right that when he has the dark clothes and makeup he acts as the demon. Also Daniel sang the song like there are 2 people singing it. The lalalala is the demon laughing at him. There's a lot of eye imagery in the MV. The red set is an eye and at the end there's a phrase in Greek which says "eyes are swords". It shows the public attention and unnecessary opinions put pressure on him and hurt him. He actually did a music show performance for this song in a set decorated with hate comments. This comeback is so good and it's just a single. We're not ready for the album.
When he's walking in the hoody and the people around him don't have faces....that freaked me out! It's a good representation of how celebrities see fans on a daily might look like.
daniel also has a special performance video for paranoia and it plays a lot with the color of the sets. it's kinda like a more minimal/toned down version of the mv. this concept is just absolutely insane i love himm
daniel is releasing on a new album on april 13th called YELLOW. paranoia's story is going to be continued in the album. he wrote lyrics to all of the songs. his next title track is called ANTIDOTE. hoping that you all could look out for it. the album is about his struggles and recovery and is personal to him.
Paranoia is such a deep and raw song and it really hits hard knowing that Daniel is talking about the struggles he went through and his experience with anxiety and depression.......the mv is sooo symbolic and illustrates his anxiety quite literally creeping on him, shutting him out and him trying to fight it soo beautifully loved this comeback soo much!!!
Let me be real, im always so excited when there’s a new video, i could watch at any time! But I’m SO MUCH more excited when you react to Kang Daniel!! I’m so proud of him as a soloist. He’s truly amazing and I’m so happy to see him grow and be loved by so many!
You could see the potential in Kang Daniel from a mile away while many other people are only now discovering him. Your words here ring true, Kang Daniel is a true artist. This song tells his own story of his struggles with anxiety and depression. He wanted to use pop music as a means of personal expression and that is exactly what he accomplished, and that is true art. I hope he watches this video. Thank you for your reaction, I was really looking forward to hearing what you had to say. And don't worry about being late, I hope you are feeling well, that's what matters most.
Amazing review! Love the analysis of technical elements and color theory talk. Daniel wrote the lyrics when he was on hiatus from depression and anxiety in late 2019/early 2020. The words on his arms at the end are failure, ugly, fake, and loser. The Greek words on his forehead are "eyes are swords”. He recently performed on SBS TV The Show and the backdrop was decorated with malicious comments, as if showing he is above his inner demons. Here's what he said about the song: “The theme in itself is heavy and distant, but since I’m resolving feelings I’ve personally felt, I wanted to express them honestly. I believe this is a feeling everyone can relate to, there’s only a difference in the extent and the depth.” “I’m thankful that I can display the feelings I’ve felt through music. The reason I put focus on such a dark aspect is because the majority of people are reluctant to bring this up. I wanted to confess my inner concerns and communicate them.”
Thank you so much for reacting to Paranoia MV and loving it. We love it too. Kang Daniel keeps on outdoing himself with each comeback making you wonder what next he’ll bring. For the background, Paranoia is based on his life experience. The words written on his arms are failure and ugly. He said he is doing better now so hopefully he really is.
thank you for your review!! i always look forward to your thoughts on Daniel's work. When he goes "LALALA" in the song, he mentioned that that's the "dark" him and you can tell on live stages he switches from running from the demons to joining them. It's really awesome and the thought behind everything to do with this song and MV is absolutely incredible. He wrote this song about his mental health struggles he faced in 2019 and it's been so cathartic to see people realize and sympathize with him. His stages for this song are out of this world. I highly suggest watching his "THE SHOW" stage. Also the words on his arm say Failure and Ugly. A lot of these words were thrown at him in 2019 and really affected him. He is basically saying he knows about all the things his antis have said about him & using them in his art now.
I had to pause for abit when I saw the spikes going on top of him, it creeped me out and gave me a suffocating feeling. I've never seen an artist using these kind of depictions in their MVs, never. And it's really unique + fascinating when I think that not many kpop idols who like to copy other people's concept be able to pull this out
I don't follow his career but that was a great comeback. I like less and less darker comebacks but I like this sound and this theme, it seems very meaningful
The most interesting thing for me is the greek phrase he has written above his eyebrow at the end of the video. In Greek, it reads "Τα μάτια είναι σπαθί" which translates to "The eyes are like a sword". He encapsulated his view of the public and their idea about him and his situation in that phrase, whatever he did, does, and will do in the future are up to the public to interpret as they want, despite how he feels about it, despite his struggles, the way people look at you will always be razor-sharp, just like a sword. He is such a skillful artist, his talent is so vast and has such depth, it is actually commendable.
Thank you for reacting to Paranoia. I love everything about this song. The first time I watched the mv I was so drawn into it. It is jaw-droppingly good. Kang Daniel delivers, as always.
Happy to see you doing well PD ❤ And thank you for the reaction I was actually waiting for this because I absolutely loved Paranoia >< (btw the thumbnail is gorgeous!!)
I've been waiting for your reaction since paranoia was released because I know how much you love kang daniel and his works. So thank you so much for this!
Fact: Kang Daniel gets better with every comeback.
Yes 👏🏻🙌🏻
Instablaster.
I feel like because he has his own company he gets to be free to creatively express himself. That makes me happy.
Yess! Definitely is why
He also got some great producers in his team
See what happened with Victon .The pop/cute vibes are popular and inforced till the artist decides to be free and often it means sexy or dark concept tho in his case in is based on his expirience
King Daniel is so involved in his solo career, it shows in his work
Bro he's literally his owm manager, like it's his own company.
@@Aziy_CrazY exactly haha
Well I mean of course he is, he IS a soloist
when he screams "behind".... I FELT THAT
my fav part besides the little rap omg

Perfectly said. This is what a lot of us deal with on a constant level.
His expiriences make the song relatable,I like it as a song 10000% but the fact that I relate to it makes me listen on reply
this song would’ve fit as an western debut honestly
even "who u are" is gon fit so good! this man doesnt have a single bad song in his discography
Needs to be recognized globally and I don't even stan kang daniel lol
Yes I’ve been thinking about it… hope it can reach the western market.the song is really superb.

i can't stop geeking out over this comeback, the choreo especially is so interesting and technically difficult i really commend him !!!
i dont really like to compare but for me daniel is like the male version of chungha, always hard working, always improving, always servinnnnn!!!!!!
Royalty. King and queen

Kang Daniel is very artistic and creative and it shows in his work. He is very talented and that does not need to be said cos his talent speaks for itself. The mv is 🔥🔥🔥
this song is a work of art
still obsessed with this masterpiece. can't wait for Daniel's next comeback
Daniel's truly a rarely-seen-kind male soloist in k-pop industry. the way he produces his music works is very his own style, not conforming to anything familiar so far, which I like the most. i can't wait to see him grow more and more ppl get to know him
and thank you PD for reacting to PARANOIA! male soloist, esp one that come non-big-4 firms gets minimum attention in k-pop world.
I love how he's just speechless for the first 2-3 minutes of the song and then still doesn't know what to say about this extraordinary masterpiece
Thank you for reacting to Kang Daniel's PARANOIA. Please keep supporting him in the future.

It’s like he’s finally finding himself as an artist
That's it!...He is getting that all-important confidence.
no one talk to me i’m in love with kang daniel
It's so satisfying to see Daniel as a solo artist
*Daniel keeps out-doing himself every comeback I swear*
i know an obsession is about to get started, when i search the song on this channel
Man.. he really killed it again I hope he gets more recognition internationally!
Thank you for your reaction❤️
That's right!! He is not idol. He is a truly artist. So I look forward to every comeback.
I was never a WANNA ONE stan but KANG DANIEL TAEMIN COLLAB PLS TO KILL THE INTERNET

OMG YAAAAAASSSSS 😍
😅 To kill the internet. I wanted a Daniel Chungha collab or a Chungha Taemin but Taemin and Daniel is yes gonna kill the knetz 🔥
OMG I can not even imagine that....
Kang Daniel is not only pop musician, he is not only an idol, but he is truely an artist!!! Thanks PD for this appreaciation
When you said he looks like a king, yes he is
When you said he is an artist, definitely yes he is
And the way you said we’re kind of sweet instead of annoying when we keep repeating say to you to react on Kang Daniel Paranoia, oh man he deserves to get the recognition from everyone, like he deserved to get known by his hard work, his passion and his talent 😊
Thank you so much for reacting to Kang Daniel, I hope you could do it again when the next album is coming ! 😊
Sooooo good reaction, I totally agree with U. Kang Daniel is real artist a this song is a BOP!
I really like him as a solo artist, I really do.
👌I love that he does his own thing.
This is definitely my favourite song of the month! Best single from Kang Daniel and that says something. He truly is an artist!
Best Kang Daniel song so far imo
Okay, the song is great (I agree with all your points on it). But choreo is amazing: it tells the whole story without needing lyrics or visual support. You can tell that he's being possessed by something, fighting it and then losing himself to it. Just great. And the backup dancers do an incredible job at being demonic minions haha
I loved the production for the MV. This is just my thing. I didn't know Kang Daniel and I'm jut wowed by this whole comeback, so I share your enthusiasm
Kang Daniel is so creative and artistic, so i'm glad he's able to express himself freely in his works
he's my favorite soloist for a reason
Oh thank you for saying we are sweet ❤️🥺
Kang Daniel cant make a bad song. love him
My favorite Kang Daniel song! Saw him live few days ago and he slayed!!! I got teary-eyed watching his Paranoia performance live!
cant wait to see PD's reaction to Nirvana!! a resonance to Paranoia in some way to me
"He's not just a kpop musician or an idol, Kang Daniel is a true artist", that I definitely agree! Been following him since Magenta era and wow guy is truly an artist! he always serves and delivers. His discography dont miss, all songs "chef kiss" 💕❤
Daniel said that the choreography is like “Chuunibyou (Eight Grade Syndrome), he wanted it to be dark and brutal.
Lyrics:
“Don’t You” He covers his eye, because that’s where the darkness spreads, and he doesn’t want anyone to see it. Then when he grabs his jaw and moves his hand away, it’s him pulling it out, He’s looking at it thinking “why is my jaw out”?

Daniel was my bias in wanna one and when he went solo his became my favourite soloist, his music is amazing and gets better every comeback.
I’ve watched this MV countless times and until now, I still get chills! Partly because of the creepy theme, but mostly because Daniel was experiencing all this and he’s so brave to share it with the world
Thank you for your review and for the shout-out. I'm glad we didn't annoy you.
Daniel wrote this song about his darkest times when he was fighting depression and anxiety/inner demons.
You got it right that when he has the dark clothes and makeup he acts as the demon. Also Daniel sang the song like there are 2 people singing it. The lalalala is the demon laughing at him.

This comeback is so good and it's just a single. We're not ready for the album.
His song has soul because he writes the lyrics which tells us his own story and his feeling during the hard time.
He's not just singing, but story telling with his voice and body😍😍😍
If we got a Kang Daniel x Chung Ha collab i think the world would go up in FLAMES
paranoia is literally my fav song right now
When he's walking in the hoody and the people around him don't have faces....that freaked me out! It's a good representation of how celebrities see fans on a daily might look like.

I love how Daniel never stop to explore and improve himself, never afraid to try new stuff. I am really love his passion for his music.
legendary...tho the public still sleeps on his work but I would still say it marks the history
Hearing the first ten seconds and I knew this was gonna be one of my favorite songs.
This song is for sure a masterpiece
