Honestly the styling made limitless not as legendary cause the outfits were unique but the hair on most members was not it. Like they gave winwin box braids. The japanese version is easier to swallow since i'm not overtly confronted with the hair cultural appropriation.
The part where you said the switch is fire is also Taeyong’s favourite part bc the lyrics goes “ This heavy world should change, we are free, look at us, and you’re the only one, who’s allowed to take my heart” he talks about how this songs breaks the stereotypes of society and stuff. They talk about it on limitless mv commentary and it’s so nice to watch
haechan is here because he's one of the first and been with them since nct127's debut with firetruck, the additional one was johnny and doyoung who were added later in limitless. this song is johndo's debut with 127. and the last one to be added was jungwoo in regular-irregular era.
I am pretty sure Haechan was the first member of 127 to be announced haha I dont know if I miss something for you to mention if Haechan was here or not. Johnny and Doyoung were added in this comeback and Jungwoo was added in Regular.
The rough ver of limitless is actually such a good aesthetic when you take away the hair and someone the clothes but the lofi filming aesthetic was ahead of its time tbh
At 4:31 u might have confused it with Doyoung's vocals but thats actually taeyong singing and even on screen. Even i was shocked when i first listened to it
i cant deny, limitless is a great song, but out of all the mvs this one has the calmest clothes and hair. all the other mvs their hair is very very very questionable, especially marks
1:40 Haechan is in 127 from the very beginning, he's in every 127's comeback 5:34 and yes, it's Haechan harmonizing with Taeil (and also in background vocals he doubling Taeil high note in falsetto) And yes, it's pretty typical for NCT to show members mouthing each other parts, like here, and in The 7th Sense (Taeyong was mouthing Doyoung high note in chorus), in Chain (Jaehyun, Taeil and Doyoung were mouthing Yuta's part) and a lot of other moments like this
Also the part where you feel like Doyoung was singing but Taeyong was on screen was in fact Ty singing, that’s probably bc ty hardly sings but he actually sang a lot in limitless compared to other songs
SM is really bad with NCT in regards to having one person singing and another person on screen. One example is the high note “take it slow take it slow” in 7th Sense they show Taeyong singing it but it’s actually Doyoung singing the line.
That MV is one of their best ever! They all look extremely good. The style is so cool. I love it. And of course the song itself is outstanding, in any language.
The Japanese version of Limitless is my fav, the lyrics sound smoother, plus hair clothes and makeup is a lot better than the Korean version, you'll understand when you watch it 🤣
Watching your NCT reactions makes me really happy because most other videos are very “Oh yeah, I know these boys like the back of my hand. Huge fan of Mark and some other people.”
Yay I’m so glad you liked it!!! I was so worried because it’s definitely more on the side of their noise music that they are known for. Thank you again!
YAYYYYYY this has always been my favorite nct era (because we got so many good besides) next to Chain (because of the visuals🥵🥵😍) and Punch (because they’re extra crackheads🤪)
Everyone sleeps on this comeback(all versions) an overlooks it just because of the fashion and all which is iconic hello but this song is so beautiful and not to mention this albums bsides? Masterpieces
Thank you for another wonderful reaction. You are Da MAN! 👏 Limitless is one of my favorite NCT songs. You really understood the vibe of the song even without knowing the lyrics! I speak Japanese and would interpret the first few lines as - The depths of sleep is the doorway to dreams, where only turning back is forbidden. Look! the maze that follows a faint light - the route that links to the next world. From the midst of hardship, from the bottom up. A call that seems to cling to the darkness... Those last two lines are where you hear Taeyong's growls which really gives the feeling of crawling out of the darkness. He's a genius. The song goes from this to breaking into the light to find your voice and become one with the world. The feeling of both spirituality and thirst combined is pretty fr*ckin' amazing. The other thing about this song that really struck me - although I haven't lived in Japan in many years so maybe I'm just not up with the times - Japanese songs have always seemed to be constricted by the structure and sound of the Japanese language which prevents a kind of flow from happening. But NCT 127 completely blew that up in their Japanese songs, artfully smushing words together in ways I've never heard before - and it works. My hat, socks, bra - EVERYTHING off to NCT 127!!
'Limitless' Japanese ver. is one of their best song, the korean ver is good but the Japanese ver is just different, is amazing, I don't know why but I can feel the difference between them xD This song is so underrated (sometimes people don't have enough taste). The MV is amazing, the choreography is awesome, the vocals are from another world (King Taeil slaying as always and looking good AF, all at the same time), the beat, the concept, everything about this song is just perfect, this era was one of their best :))
Actually, in my opinion, Limitless is the most underrated music video of NCT127 next to Wakey Wakey. Yet, Limitless is the first choreography I memorized since their debut and it meant a lot to me because this song is what I danced for my first auditions at the dance troup which got me in. 😭💚 TMI: I really did that JoHnNy IcOnIc BoDy RoLl in the choreo hehe
Oh Haechan is barely in this vid cause he missed a day of filming I remember Mark said something about him having to miss a day of filming but can't remember if it was because he was sick or there was some kind of school schedule conflict.
he was really sick. in the video that they were reacting to the mv mark said that he was proud of haechan cause he worked really hard even when he was sick.
How am I 3 weeks late?! This is legit! I always want to see when anyone reacts to the Japanese MV of "Limitless," just the cinematography! Like thank you and thank Kristy for asking for this one specifically! But I kind of feel like this is the one that should be saved for last since it's the last released version, and there's such a cinematic shift! I know what you mean when you say "Limitless" is like the spiritual father to Neo Zone. For NCT 127 and NCT Dream, their 2017 releases not only solidified their sound, but they are referenced throughout their entire discography. NCT in general uses the term Limitless in sooo of their many songs. Limitless is especially special because it's their concept and everything for them is limitless. For Dream they released "My First and Last" around this time, and every album since has referenced "My First and Last" in some way. The 2017 NCT songs are favorites because they're so meaningful.
TBH limitless is the song that makes me an nctzen although u understand mark iconic ramen hair but whatever THATS MF MAKE ME NCTZEN AND THAT SONG IS MY FAV FOREVER✌✌
Oh yeah, they switch up the voices and the people on screen a lot back then. They don't do that as often anymore, but look at the beginning in "The 7th Sense" Taeyong is mouthing Doyoung's voice. And here there's so much of that, a major one is Jaehyun's Belenciaga hat scene, where he's mouthing Taeyong's part and it just looks good. But yeah, it was more about the video aesthetic than matching the person with the voice all the time.
Also, you are right about how most of the songs in neo zone evolved from limitless. there were literally Chinese characters of Limitless in the kick it mv. And also, if you check out the lyrics of limitless. It is literally the description of NCT's concept. The opening theme song from NCT to the world.
Limitless is one of the most underrated 127 songs. The song is great, so is the choreography. and the hair and clothes are actually decent.
Honestly the styling made limitless not as legendary cause the outfits were unique but the hair on most members was not it. Like they gave winwin box braids. The japanese version is easier to swallow since i'm not overtly confronted with the hair cultural appropriation.
@@shanzoni1200 when I say the hair I definitely mean the japanese version. Taeyong Winwin and Mark had something weird going on in their heads.
ben talking about taeyong: what's poppin big bro
also ben talking about taeyong: are you GROWLING at me???.. that's sexy
"give yuta all the spotlight, pls"
bruh deserved !!
The part where you said the switch is fire is also Taeyong’s favourite part bc the lyrics goes “ This heavy world should change, we are free, look at us, and you’re the only one, who’s allowed to take my heart” he talks about how this songs breaks the stereotypes of society and stuff. They talk about it on limitless mv commentary and it’s so nice to watch
nakamoto yuta world domination i said what i said
periodt !
Yes!
Taeyong really was singing on parts. I love his voice when he sings! 😍
They did have other members mouthing members' parts. Such as Jaehyun mouthing the part where Taeyong says "Baby I don't want nobody but you"
that part is the death of me istg
haechan is here because he's one of the first and been with them since nct127's debut with firetruck, the additional one was johnny and doyoung who were added later in limitless. this song is johndo's debut with 127. and the last one to be added was jungwoo in regular-irregular era.
I am pretty sure Haechan was the first member of 127 to be announced haha I dont know if I miss something for you to mention if Haechan was here or not. Johnny and Doyoung were added in this comeback and Jungwoo was added in Regular.
One of their BEST songs I dont care, underrated masterpiece 😔
One of their absolute BEST title tracks, really a timeless BOP
You're right, they've shown a different member while the other one was singing. I'm glad you notice those things, true NCTzen
STAN NCT!!!!!!
Actually, it was Taeyong's voice after the 2nd verse and before 2nd chorus. And it surprised me too. But that is him showing off his soft vocals
The rough ver of limitless is actually such a good aesthetic when you take away the hair and someone the clothes but the lofi filming aesthetic was ahead of its time tbh
At 4:31 u might have confused it with Doyoung's vocals but thats actually taeyong singing and even on screen.
Even i was shocked when i first listened to it
"too much good content to put into one video"
nct rlly do be giving us quality content 👌😌
i cant deny, limitless is a great song, but out of all the mvs this one has the calmest clothes and hair. all the other mvs their hair is very very very questionable, especially marks
ramen hair mark world domination. I said what I said end of discussion
But limitless rough ver. has my favorite outfit in NCT history...
"Give Yuta all the spotlight"
Periodt
1:40 Haechan is in 127 from the very beginning, he's in every 127's comeback
5:34 and yes, it's Haechan harmonizing with Taeil (and also in background vocals he doubling Taeil high note in falsetto)
And yes, it's pretty typical for NCT to show members mouthing each other parts, like here, and in The 7th Sense (Taeyong was mouthing Doyoung high note in chorus), in Chain (Jaehyun, Taeil and Doyoung were mouthing Yuta's part) and a lot of other moments like this
I can’t wait till you check out the rough ver. of limitless. When you do you have to check out the comment section because it’s hilarious.
Also the part where you feel like Doyoung was singing but Taeyong was on screen was in fact Ty singing, that’s probably bc ty hardly sings but he actually sang a lot in limitless compared to other songs
Honestly, Limitless album is amazing..... not only the title song but also B-sides !! Especially “Back 2 U” and “Baby don’t like it” are so popular 😉💚
SM is really bad with NCT in regards to having one person singing and another person on screen. One example is the high note “take it slow take it slow” in 7th Sense they show Taeyong singing it but it’s actually Doyoung singing the line.
That MV is one of their best ever! They all look extremely good. The style is so cool. I love it. And of course the song itself is outstanding, in any language.
Limitless will always be my favourite NCT song! Touch is in close second ;)
That fade pre chorus and chorus and hook does things to your heart TIMELESSLY. ITS UNFORGETTABLE. A LIFETIME PEOPLEEEE
It's so crazy cause Johnny has more screen time in the Japanese MV than the Korean MV
Limitless was a cultural reset! It’s literally one of the best bg songs of all time(in my opinion)
Hi Ben, Taeyong isn’t actually growling here, it’s a vocal technique called vocal fry if I remember correctly
It’s pretty hot not gonna lie ;)
The Japanese version of Limitless is my fav, the lyrics sound smoother, plus hair clothes and makeup is a lot better than the Korean version, you'll understand when you watch it 🤣
Wait till he sees WinWins hair in the Korean version 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao
They did him and mark dirty but they pulled it off
Lol the styling choices in the korean version is why I recommended the Japanese version first 🤣🤣🤣
lmao and marks too
If you didn't know, this was actually the song that Doyoung and Johnny debuted in when they became part of 127
Watching your NCT reactions makes me really happy because most other videos are very “Oh yeah, I know these boys like the back of my hand. Huge fan of Mark and some other people.”
This song plus 'Baby Don't Like It' plus 'Back 2 U' are my favorites from the Limitless album!!!
Yuta always makes me speechless❤ he is the definition of perfection
I love the Japanese ver more than korean ver so Im happy that you react to it first😂😍❤
Yay I’m so glad you liked it!!! I was so worried because it’s definitely more on the side of their noise music that they are known for. Thank you again!
Limitless is one of my fave nct127 songs...top3
This mv is already dope, wait till you see the korean rough version, so unique!
YAYYYYYY this has always been my favorite nct era (because we got so many good besides) next to Chain (because of the visuals🥵🥵😍) and Punch (because they’re extra crackheads🤪)
this albums bsides are heavenly
limitless is my fav song ever. it's just a bop
Everyone sleeps on this comeback(all versions) an overlooks it just because of the fashion and all which is iconic hello but this song is so beautiful and not to mention this albums bsides? Masterpieces
Consider watching the preformance version music video. Because the dance is awesome. ❤
no matter what songs they came out, at the end of day i'll come back for limitless and whiplash
You calling Tae "baby bro" is my new favorite song
Thank you for another wonderful reaction. You are Da MAN! 👏

limitless is a timeless bop
one of my favorite mv and song too.....
Best NCT song timeless bop!
Limitless was my first NCT song and it's still my favourite. The vibes, the voices... I love this song so much. Thanks Ben!!!
I´m so happy you got to react to this! also, I´m sure you´re not ready for the styling in the korean version. That era was crazyyyy.
Yeah, Limitless is one of the best 127 song, but as soon as you see the korean visuals you'll see the extra reason why we put it so high on the list😔
japanese fits so well with the melody of limitless for me, and the concept in this mv is amazing😣
my favorite version for sure
Finalllyuyy u ractedddd!!
To limitlesssss i was waiting for this so much !!!!!
My favorite NCT title track to this day
this song made me become nctzen. this song is sooooo good
'Limitless' Japanese ver. is one of their best song, the korean ver is good but the Japanese ver is just different, is amazing, I don't know why but I can feel the difference between them xD This song is so underrated (sometimes people don't have enough taste).

TMI: I really did that JoHnNy IcOnIc BoDy RoLl in the choreo hehe
One of the BEST TITLE track, NCT127 release. 👏👏👏 I miss this era so much. Most especially MARK hair.
Omg i like this MV too, taeyong so nice in this video i like it
I kept wanting to sing to the rhythm of the Korean version LOL. This video is aesthetic AF though. Thanks for reacting, Ben :)
that instagram post today made me happy ben
Oh Haechan is barely in this vid cause he missed a day of filming I remember Mark said something about him having to miss a day of filming but can't remember if it was because he was sick or there was some kind of school schedule
conflict.
he was really sick. in the video that they were reacting to the mv mark said that he was proud of haechan cause he worked really hard even when he was sick.
icb i didn’t get the notifs for this reaction but FINALLY THE SUPERIOR PAVED THE WAY FOR NOISE MUSIC SONG OF THE DECADE LIMITLESS!!
still one of my favorite 127 songs
How am I 3 weeks late?! This is legit! I always want to see when anyone reacts to the Japanese MV of "Limitless," just the cinematography! Like thank you and thank Kristy for asking for this one specifically! But I kind of feel like this is the one that should be saved for last since it's the last released version, and there's such a cinematic shift!

This mv did Limitless much more justice.
NCT !!! WORLD !!! DOMINATION !!!
HELL YEAH!
PLEASE watch Taeyong, Taeil, and Jaehyun's teasers for limitless. You're missing out
Happy you're still loving Taeyong
the superior mv for limitless💚
Yassssss LIMITLESSSSSS!!!!!!! Waited for more than a year
i dont know but is it only me that the limitless mv rough ver. is my fave 🤔 the concept is unique 💚
Also have you heard the b sides from this release? They are *chefs kiss*
TBH limitless is the song that makes me an nctzen although u understand mark iconic ramen hair but whatever THATS MF MAKE ME NCTZEN AND THAT SONG IS MY FAV FOREVER✌✌
How could you live your life without watching any NCT videos for a whole two weeks Ben??
I can't relate lmao.
Oh yeah, they switch up the voices and the people on screen a lot back then. They don't do that as often anymore, but look at the beginning in "The 7th Sense" Taeyong is mouthing Doyoung's voice. And here there's so much of that, a major one is Jaehyun's Belenciaga hat scene, where he's mouthing Taeyong's part and it just looks good. But yeah, it was more about the video aesthetic than matching the person with the voice all the time.
If you are interested in their recording, maybe you can react their recording behind the scene. I love your reaction, keep going ha!!
I prefer the japan ver mv, but the korean ver song is the real bop. That's 100% a literal masterpiece. My top tier nct's song ever
congrats you were noticed by jae say6. you deserve that ✊
It's been a while since I watch this mv
Ben is you wanna be blessed with more Taeyong growling watch Tiger Inside by SuperM he ate that shit up
YASSSSSS, Literally saw this notification and my face just lit up
Limitless is *that* song😩💔
japanese king nakamoto yuta
Deacs: Johnny shut up
Johnny the whole song: ok
thanks for your reaction))
pretty sure this was johnny and doyoungs debut !
Most NCTzen like the Japanese version More than the Korean one well as far as I think haha. But both it's NCT so ofcourse I love anything they do 😂
FINALLY LIMITLESS
When Haechan and Taeil harmonize >>>>>>>>
you're right there are part switches ben don't worry
that's taeyong singing not doyoung lol >< nctzen card revoked ben
BUT Limitless rough ver. is the best mv in nct history and is criminally underrated. I said what I said.
Also, you are right about how most of the songs in neo zone evolved from limitless. there were literally Chinese characters of Limitless in the kick it mv. And also, if you check out the lyrics of limitless. It is literally the description of NCT's concept. The opening theme song from NCT to the world.
you should definitely react to nctmentary!!!!!!i think you'd really like it!
MORE NCT
Johnny & Doyoung debut song as NCT 127
please check out the rough ver of limitless i love it in a weird way but its dope
They said one shot of winwin and haechan is out of this
