Red Velvet ALL MV's Reaction

Comments

Yep only got into kpop January 2024 haha

MLQDAY

on leemujin huh then you really got in late

Yeob

Also Lily from NMIXX did a cover of psycho and I thought it was really good she's one of the reasons as to why I got into Red velvet lol

MLQDAY

I love Red velvet and a good majority of their somgs bc i love Wendy's voice sp much shes definitely my bias in terms of vocals in kpop I think period lol but I'm so weird bc I think my top Red Velvet songs are 1. Psycho 2. Wildside (Japanese release) 3. Zimzalabim 4. Dumb Dumb 5. Cosmic/Underwater( a b-side)

MLQDAY

I believe she’s meant to be a bird/owl that Bosch (one of the main artists they used) used to represent evil/darkness. (More clearly seen as the owl at 3:17 of the mv). She’s also the one to eat the strawberries which seems significant because of Bosch again - he used strawberries as like a forbidden fruit in the specific painting they reference - which is why there’s so many in the MV.

what was seulgi referencing?

Yeob

The Feel My Rythm mv is such a favourite of mine, and the whole mv is full of references from different art pieces, which is why it may look a little random but specific at the same time aha. Love how they include random references in their concepts, like Cosmic and the Midsommar horror movie

Violet

I love classical kpop so much. By the way you should become a reactor. And just say exactly that.

Yeob

red velvet day...lol

Feel My Rhythm is the greatest example of integrating a classical music piece into a kpop song (J.S. Bach's Air on G String). It was written in the same key (D), with baroque tuning (which means that D Major during baroque times when Bach wrote it wasn't what D is today, it's closer to D flat since during baroque times keys were pitched down a few degrees) and it was actually released on Bach's bday. They didn't just integrate like a 4 bar melody line like most other kpop songs that use a classical music piece do, they incorporated the first section and 2nd or B section of the piece throughout the song. During the chorus they actually use the classical piece as the counter melody to the chorus that they developed and it matches perfectly. But this is just a single example of how they took Air on G String and altered/integrated/used throughout the entire song Im guessing you didn't grow up playing classical music but for those that did, this song works so well integrating the classical piece and what was newly written for the kpop portion it's mind bending and kinda hurts to think about (in a good way)

The reason why no one died in Russian Roulette isn't bc of cgi in Im guessing how you think of it, nothing was added with computer graphics. All they did was film the same shot with a fixed camera view twice (so one time with the 4 girls pushing over the bookcase and another time with I think? Yeri just standing at the end) and then just overlayed the 2 videos (they used cg to "clean up" the image but nothing was digitally "added")

Edward Lee

HOLY SH*T. You went through ALL the title tracks? Wow

Edward Lee

Yes

Denisa Bacsa

which note? from RBB right

Yeob

BTW the note that you said it was screaming is a whistle note

Denisa Bacsa

Its gonna be fun getting to know them more. And diving into their albums as well. I definitely want to do their solos too

Yeob

My favorite group of all time. It's crazy how long they've been a group it still feels like I was just watching Russian roulette. The members know that the fans like their velvet side more but for some reason sm keeps pushing the red even tho their most successful songs have been velvet songs. Ik members like seulgi and Wendy love rnb so their favs songs on their albums tend to be bsides. They arent known as bside queens for no reason. Idk how you will like their bsides given your rankings and thoughts on songs. I love experimental music and more complex songs so rvs music is my fav in kpop but isn't as digestible to the average listener. It can sound boring but when you actually listen to all the layers it's very musically interesting (thanks band for ruining music for me) I'm not sure if they are disbanding ik if they had it their way things would be managed wayyy differently. The girls especially Wendy and joy call out the mismanagement all the time and ik they are frustrated with how they are treated compared to the other groups under sm. Which is completely valid cause they don't get treated well when you compare with groups like nct and hell even super junior get managed better. I lowkey hoped they would leave sm cause it would mean better conditions but hey as long as they're happy. Irene is finally being given a solo and I hope she sings cause ik she doesn't enjoy rapping that much and for some reason sm felt like rv needed a rapper when all the members sing so well. Like not every song needs a rap. Anyway enjoyed you're thought process even tho my ranking was way different than yours lol (I can't stand psycho now maybe cause I was really into rv during that time and that's when Wendy's accident happened so it was so tough seeing all the girls have breakdowns over it and radio silence from wendy for like a year didnt help) Hope you enjoy the rest of the content they are such an interesting group i find them so funny they are all introverts which is odd for idols you dont see that often. Wendy is the designated extrovert of the group but she is truly the definition of extroverted when with friends cause you put her around anyone else and shes so introverted. I think it brings a bit of awkwardness to them which I really connect with since im introverted as well. I thank joy every day that she decided to force sm to change the cosmic concept to midsummer best decision ever. Without her red velvet creative vision would be no where near what it is.
