So glad you caught the mask! There’s also a halateez member hidden in the mv, I hope you can find him as well~ It’s been so fun watching your journey and seeing you falling into the storyline, it’s a little confusing but it’s so fun to figure out! Good luck with the rest of them! Ateez as a group are by far the most interesting and fun to me, they’re so entertaining and just happy to be here and it shows in all the content they put out. I’m sure you’ll fall even more in love with them after you watch their other content!
We didn't catch the hidden member! Thanks for letting us know, we will have to watch it again and be on the lookout. We're looking forward to getting to know them better! ❤
I know its a year later already lol. But this video with your reaction really cheered me up. This song makes me so happy and them smiling so much in the MV aswell. Thank you for cheering me up today even if its an old video
One thing-story wise is their happier/brighter songs often have them sleeping. And the “Open your eyes” comes up again multiple times. The Neverland feel is intentional here. Peter Pan is mentioned in Wonderland. Some of my favorite title tracks are coming up-I am curious to see your reactions to those. Will you react to their comeback song on the 29th or wait until you get to it in order (if you want to wait it would be in order after Answer MV).
This song and Wave came out at the same time. And when ateez had announced this comeback, they allowed the fans to vote between Wave and Illusion as to which one is their main title track. Wave won. I like both, but this one is just SO FUN to listen to. I just love this one so much! You guys got the names down perfectly! And so far as I'm listening, you haven't gotten anything wrong to the point where I would say its really wrong. Since you've only seen this many mvs. And I think maybe you will end up piecing a lot more together of the story/concept. I think I've realized that if there is a frame/scene of the mv with no members, then whatever is in the shot is really important. Whether it's a prop that we've seen before (hala masks) or really important symbolism/imagery. What I've seen is that people say this mv is supposed to signify the members as being in a dream world. And I would say definitely has Peter Pan/Neverland influence. I know it might be further on, but I agree with the comment that says you should watch lives to see who sings which part. So far that I've seen, whenever a member is singing their line, they will be highlighted in the choreo or live during their part. I think that's how I got it... matching up the voices while watching the lives. OH, ALSO you guys are so precious. Quizzing each other on the members via thirst traps sometimes. Very nice. Also, very helpful actually! I'm excited for the next video!
Comments and support like this make this journey so worth it 😫 Thank you for your continued love~ Quizzing each other via thirst traps and gifs has been such a fun way to do it, and surprisingly very beneficial 😂
I really like your reactions and the fact you would react to it more than once to observe more. Ateez is incredibly talented but their charm lies in their stage presence especially in their live performances. I’ve seen many kpop artists who are very talented in singing and dancing but their faces lack emotions. It was when I watched ATEEZ Wonderland Studio Choom performance that I decided to learn about ATEEZ simply because of Hongjoong’s performance in it. I later watched his fancams mostly those uploaded by MiniHong since hongjoong would recognize this person is attending many of their events to film him and then he would look at this person’s camera in multiple events to make eye contact/wink and etc. which is very nice of him. And ever since he became my forever bias. I watched many of his fancams and in every single performance, whether he’s dancing in front or back, whether he’s performing in a concert or in a small fan-sign event, his facial expressions are 100% on point. Sometimes fancams show you members from head to toe yet hongjoong is engaging to watch even when the fancam is focused on his face (which is incredibly difficult if you think about it yet he does it so effortlessly). His stage presence never fails to amaze me, it’s too powerful.

Of course all the members have great stage presence so their fancams are worth checking out as well.
It's not your fault. KQ let the fans vote between Illusion and Wave.They clearly thought Illusion would win and set the videos up so Illusion would roll right into Wave. But Wave won the vote, so it came first. Oops. Also, for fun videos, I recommend Kim Hongjoong's Guide to Raising Demons
There are a lot of things relating to the storyline. I'm not a deep diver theorist so, I can't tell you much about it, but Im still enjoying the ride. This song is so fun though.
I found your channel through your svt videos and im a big carat so I love following your journey with them but ive always wanted to get into ateez. I know some of their songs already but never got into the storyline so watching your videos really are helping me get into them more seriously. I know these videos are old but hopefully I can catch up because I can't wait to continue my atiny journey with you guys 🧡
I really liked your theories! I don't think there's one definitive explanation of where this MV fits in the storyline or how. Dreamscape and communicating through dreams is a part of their lore but so is hallucinations-inducing gas so it can go either way depending on which version of Ateez we have here and at which point in the story (I personally think it's our Ateez maybe stuck in a dream in which Halateez are trying to reach them before they talk for the first time). It's worth remembering that back then all signs were pointing to Halateez being bad guys, maybe Ateez's adversaries. Before you watch Wonderland (or after, but before you forget details of Illusion and Wave) make sure to watch the pre-comeback stage VCR for it, you'll see why th-cam.com/video/-vphfDnAQDk/w-d-xo.html Lore aside, I really, really love this song and MV, it's just pure joy and particularly on Hongjoong, it's one of my very favourite Ateez stylings. Actually, think is also probably the closest to their off-stage personalities :D I'm sure you're going to love the live stages for it, they're just pure, distilled happiness. PS. Comeback showcase tomorrow at 8pm KST!
Oh, and if you'd like to start watching their contents this is the Treasure Film era - it's a set of individual and group challenges they filmed while in Australia, one of the best to watch to learn their names if you're still having problems, and it's super cute and funny.
Thank you so much for the kind words and information!! I could absolutely see how Halateez were initially considered maybe the bad guys since they seem so much darker! Live stages are something we absolutely cannot wait to get to 😄

they are apparently hallusinating while jumping through time
I know its a year later already lol. But this video with your reaction really cheered me up. This song makes me so happy and them smiling so much in the MV aswell. Thank you for cheering me up today even if its an old video
Oh wow, the fact that this MV is already over a year old is mind-blowing haha. We're glad we were able to help cheer you up ❤️

They should react to the comeback when it releases. No real reason to wait.
We plan on watching the comeback as soon as possible! It might not be released until Saturday, but keep on the lookout for it!

Ahh that makes sense, we were wondering why they were released in that order! Adding that video our list, it sounds extremely entertaining.
There are a lot of things relating to the storyline. I'm not a deep diver theorist so, I can't tell you much about it, but Im still enjoying the ride. This song is so fun though.
Thank you for your support~ This song has been stuck in our heads since recording, just replaying nonstop!
I found your channel through your svt videos and im a big carat so I love following your journey with them but ive always wanted to get into ateez. I know some of their songs already but never got into the storyline so watching your videos really are helping me get into them more seriously. I know these videos are old but hopefully I can catch up because I can't wait to continue my atiny journey with you guys 🧡
great reaction! love from atiny❤️
I love ur videos guys thank u for reacting to ateez and u are doing great with recognizing the members it will be easy in the future don't worry 💗
Thank you so much! We're trying to make sure we give them the love they deserve 🥰
