@@KpopPrince no, that was the aespa that was trapped in Black Mamba’s Illusion. In the end, they killed Black Mamba (Winter shoot the eyes) but then they all said ‘WHAT ?’ Cause it was all just illusion. If you watch the smcu ep 2 and 3 , u’ll understand the story in next level- savage- girls MV.
Aespa really grew on me this year. Initially I didn't like their early concept stuff but now love it. They are currently my favorite K-pop group (followed by NMIXX, Ive, KDA, and NewJeans) The fact that they have so much content already and their upcoming album will be their first full album is just an absolute plus. I've recently come across your channel and it has been fun to listen/watch your reactions as it is a fun way to relive a lot of these fun K-pop moments.
To be fair, I'm fairly certain that if they did use AI in those "still shots" at the end, it was more like they deepfaked Aespa's faces onto... their own faces and then puppeteered their mouths around, which I actually think is really cool and gives the images that eerie quality. At the very least, I'm not sure this would count as an unethical use of generative AI, which I'm generally categorically opposed to it because genAI uses stolen data. But in this case, I think Aespa just used... themselves? But I can also kind of imagine them pulling off that effect without AI at all! Like puppeteering their mouths through animation or something!
Similar to you I REALLY got into aespa last year . After Girls in 2022 made me pay attention again they had their insane homerun in 2023 with Welcome To My World, Spicy, Better Things and Drama which I all loved. As for Supernova: I'm intrigued about the theory that these are "AI/bad aespa" who will fight against "real/good aespa" in the upcomming "armageddon" release. Love that stuff. The song and MV itself are super weird (them getting hit by "The End" at the end? I love weird!). Wasn't sure if I liked the song though at first, but its already growing on me after a few listens. Still not sure if I'll add it to my playlist but certainly a lot of respect for being so weird. To quote IVE: "You're so weird, don't change" Also similar to IVE's recent "Heya", releases like these are why I fell in love with K-Pop a long time ago. Thank you aespa and IVE for bringing the K back into K-Pop. 😅 Finally: Karina in that silver outfit and Winter spinning around that pole... that can't be legal 😍
You got pretty close on the concept tbh. Its Alien Aespa, they're doing a multiverse story arc atm and Armageddon (the next title track itself) will supposedly be the actual clash/battle between the different versions of Aespa.
Hey just wanted to make a request. If you haven't already watched yena good girls in the dark performance video please do a reaction on that i really look forward to your reaction 💛
@@DoyoungismyfaveIt is, at least one of them. They got double title tracks for the album. Supernova is the 1st one and Armageddon the 2nd one. And regarding OP's comment; it's okay. Aespa's releases tend to be polarizing anyway with some exceptions.
The most common take abt supernova is theyre the alien aespa.
And they will have a battle with the real aespa in armageddon.
Was the aespa we see in "Savage" also alien aespa?

I fallen in love with this song and the music video made me love it even more cos it’s so quirky and fun
I did like that they went full send on the quirkiness
Queen is back.

@@KpopPrince no thank you for posting these honest & refreshing takes, you seem so cool
aespa는 2024년을 자신들의 해로 만들고 있습니다. 최고의 유튜브 조회수 + 한국 음원 차트 33일 연속 1위 + 음악 방송 11관왕(아마겟돈 포함).
I wasn't sure on first listen on the way to work, but damn I really like it now. The synths really do it for me lol
Idk why i love it so muchhhh
I'm hoping that I come around on it more
4:28 thats the most perfect way to describe aespa’s music 😭

Oh yeah it was more that it was disturbing in itself visually haha
Oh okay hahaha then yeah, it's definitely disconcerting to look at, so I loved it 😅

I love Kwangya!))) Also all sm artists in kwangya not only aespa))
This song is amazing and addicting!
I hope this one grows on me I had the same reaction! I feel like the live stage will be very good for this song
Supernova is definitely a grower not a shower..
aespa 🤝 me leaving the pool
@@KpopPrince LMFAOOOOO
oh ay !
They got hit by The End at the end.
that moment was hilarious... couldn't stop laughing 🤣
Supernova so good

Is there an official article abt this or is it just all theories?
Yeah, you're definitely not kidding about blonde Winter hitting different lol
에스파 노래를 처음에 들으면 엥? 응? 뭐지?
이러다가... 뭐지? 다시 들어보자..
이러면서 하루 종일 반복 하면서 듣고 있음...
정신 차리면 내 플레이 리스트에 올라가 있음..ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ah..body bang... sususu supernova...yes!!
I think the AI in the end was intentionally bad.
I do think it's supposed to be intentionally disturbing
This song contained drugs and i'm addicted to it

Sm really don’t care about general public opinion hhhh
I guarantee you they do 😅
Sadly not my type of beer
Hi KpopPrince! New Subscriber here♡ Can you react to "Yoko Na" by Josh Cullen ft. AI James? Thank you!
The song didn't do anything for me. Kinda disappointed tbh, hopefully the album will have better songs.
This isn’t the title track. 😊

Let's see after 1 month maybe
