    I really agree that SM takes all the bashing for their songs and concepts being so experimental, but give it a few weeks and months and some companies will try to do that too. Because even though at first listen their experimental songs are hard to get into, as time passes they become stuck into people's heads and become iconic.
    And the smart thing about this is that SM gets to say they did it first.

    SM just knows how to make weird ass songs super catchy. And even if you don't like the song at first it'll be stuck in your head until you finally check it out time and time again. And before you know it you're absolutely obsessed.
    A big reason why this work for SM is also because they have absolutely STELLAR singers. Without that talent and hardwork it just wouldn't work.

    Aespa has one of the most unique concepts in all of kpop. So basically they have their virtual selves (the AE members) that live in a virtual SM cultured universe called kwangya. I think they team up with their virtual selves to fight off Black mamba. I'm not sure tbh it's very confusing but it's interesting and definitely something never tried before. I like their futuristic/cyberpunk genre it's very cool. Jamming to their songs rn

    Thanks for the honest reaction Caitlin! Aespa's concept is really complicated, also the reason people hold back on stanning them, it takes quite a while to understand their terms and vocabulary (But it's so worth it though). SM songs usually take a few listens to vibe with which is very interesting because sm is all about experiments, they're not afraid to try out new things, which is why I love SM's production a lot.

    Next level is one of the biggest hits in the kpop scene this year. Since it’s release it’s still in the top 10 ranking on Melon and the dance is literally a trend in Korea and amongst idols. Also one of my favourite songs of the year because it’s so catchy and fun, aespa is really bringing back the uniqueness that kpop had before it become so generic and westernised.

    SM does have a lot of trending setting artists, but the groups they took the most risks with were SHINee and f(x).
    They were ahead of the game ALL THE TIME. Everything house inspired can be traced back to them. SHINee started the dance practice trend and the concept album trilogies. High teen concepts as we know them would be nothing without f(x), and the huge impact Pink Tape had on the Kpop industry. Forever changing the full album game.

    KWANGYA - KWANGYA is the unprescribed, infinite digital world beyond the FLAT with no rule or form.
    NÆVIS - NÆVIS (pronounced and
    sometimes spelled “NAVIS") is the Al entity that connects the portal between the FLAT and KWANGYA.
    P.O.S - Short for “Port of Soul," P.O.S is a portal that connects the FLAT with the real world.
    REKALL - REKALL is when a cross over to the real world.
    KOSMO - the end game so to say that the AESPA members wants to reach after defeating the Black Mamba .
    SYNK - SYNK is the act of connecting with your æ to share secrets, thoughts, and emotions.
    MY - When aespa and æ-aespa SYNK, they become MY, which is said to mean "the most precious friends.” MY also being aespa's official fandom name .
    Black Mamba - The Black Mamba is the evil entity in KWANGYA that disconnects aespa and æ-aespa's SYNK.

    What a coincidence that Caitlin would ask who’s Giselle just like how she asked who’s Yuta. I was so happy when they announced that there’s gonna be another Japanese idol in SM. I can still remember the time that Yuta was the only one and he doesn’t have anyone to talk to in Japanese. Shotaro and Giselle debuting made me really happy 🥰

    Black Mamba: *"Lets be the most badass this year"*

    also Next Level and Savage are monsters chart on every music platforms in South Korea. Next Level is a big bang seems like what Growl by EXO do or Love Scenario by Ikon do. All Kill #1, and Savage still on #1 for 83rd time all kill so far (still counting).

    Giselle voice is also my favourite!! I really love her tone, my favourite tone in Aespa
    She is also the best SM female rapper and she writes her own rap. This is why she is my bias!!

  • @pahi2260

    You’ll understand everything when you watch their Black Mamba ep. 1.
    Their lore is there. Also you’ll understand a lot about some other sm mvs as well, like -Kai’s Mmmh, NCT U’s 90’s Love and NCT 127’s Sticker.
    You can check it out in your own time.
    Thank you so much for checking them out.
    Do update us about how you like Aespa in a few weeks after listening to their songs 😂

    12:46 she is Giselle, pretty face and beautiful voice, right?

  • @renebaebaeeee

    I love how u appreciate giselle’s voice! Coming froma choir member, she really sings so well. She’s a rapper in the group along with karina, but their vocals are no joke. 💓💓💓 love your reaction to my girls. 💓💓💓

    • @tanjirokamado8072
      @tanjirokamado8072 년 전 +2

      I know! I just hope Giselle will get her moment cause with their 4 title tracks, we all know Giselle was always overshadowed by the three. I mean, its not the girls fault so I'm kinda hoping SM will shock fans by giving Giselle her spotlight in vocals. That would totally be a game changer.

  • @leeminhyung167
    @leeminhyung167 2 년 전 +72

    Lol, I was wondering this week if you’d react to Aespa because they’re becoming so popular. And the I thought, “no, it’s probably like NCT originally, she has too many groups too look at already” BUT HERE WE ARE AND IM SOOOOO HAPPPPYYYYY!!!!!!! I love your reactions so much! 💚💚💚💚💚

    12:40 That's Giselle, the main rapper and subvocalist. Giselle's voice is my favorite in the group too. I just really love her tone and enunciation. Yes she's the blonde one with deeper voice in Black Mamba and the one you said whose voice stoodout in Forever. She used to be a part of her school choir in high school too

    If I’m honest, I’m loving their style and I recently joined the fandom! I don’t think I would like their songs without having been with NCT for a while, tho! I do think their sounds r somewhat similar and I love to see artists going out of the expected formula

  • @ladyzhang0408
    @ladyzhang0408 2 년 전 +63

    I'm really not that into the whole Kwangya concept but I like Aespa's music for the most part plus all 4 of them are all-rounders, i think they can pull off anything. i admit tho i didnt like Next Level the 1st few times i heard it but now i'm hooked lol

    The intention of Next Level reflects their story. Next Level starts one way, goes another and comes back. In their story, go from our world to the next and are coming back. So yes, it is an intentional mess.
