the amount of 2nd gen in this song almost makes me want to stan EXO again
but I won't because I'm an OT12 supporter
and I have not gotten over that ordeal as of yet
Hi, welcome to my 12th scandal!
you might have noticed that I woke up real brave today but also real sick
I can't breathe *references breath by BEAST*
I also have a feeling that this video is really going to piss off Exotics,
Or Exo-L's
was this just a m@ndel@ effect?
Let me know, at some point their fandom name was called Exotics,
please tell me I didn't make this up in my head
because then I left the fandom
they were called Exotics, then
then suddenly I made my return to make fun of Exo
and someone was like "no, you're a dumb ****, it's Exo-L"
when did that happen and where was I?
Here's the thing, Exo made me look really bad
because I made a video, Roasting TXT's outfits,
I haven't uploaded it yet
but in that video, I will admit,
I roasted boy groups and I'm not proud of how aggressively I did so,
but then here I am being shown by Exo
everything that I said boy groups don't bring forth anymore
they brought back innovative fashion,
they brought back eye makeup,
they have made my 2nd gen heart feel something
that I haven't felt since 2NE1 released goodbye in 2017
Does anyone know how it makes me feel?
and so, in today's video,
I'm gonna be doing my usual comparisons,
and then I'm gonna analyze the music video and then
at the end.....UGH *laughing*
I'm sorry, I'm doing this voiceover the next day and
and I'm so CONGESTED!
and then I'm going to finish off by doing a little review of the song
So let's get started
Actually, I'm gonna stop you right there to remind you to subscribe to this channel and click the bell to be notified
you can also do little things here and there to help sustain this channel like
like asking me why I pronounce Rosé like that,
or sharing my videos with people you can hate them with
there's no denying this, and I'm going to iterate this since I didn't upload my TXT video yet,
Boy group fashion has become boring and stagnant
girl groups have literally been carrying the creativity of fashion on their backs,
but these outfits remind me so much of 2nd gen, and I'm so here for it
honestly, I've disliked a lot of exo's songs ever since Wolf
I know, I'm so sorry
so I haven't really kept up with them but I have seen Kai in a few crop tops
and I think in that sense they have kept up with the 2nd gen vibes
but this is the first time I'm paying attention so I'm making a big deal about it
I'm also literally at the edge of my seat with this use of eye makeup,
I don't think boy groups have gone this hard since Mblaq's cry in 2011
and if you've been following my channel consistently, I've been begging boy groups to bring back eye makeup!
So despite all these wonderful things, I'm still going to annoyingly point out
every comparison I could possibly make
and we are going to address the internet's burning question,
did Exo copy BTS' blood, sweat and tears?
So I originally cut this part out because
It was such a stretch
and I didn't want to lose any credibility but
I also did want to talk about G-dragon
so you can only imagine how conflicted I was
but I might as well name this the biggest stretch of my career
and yes we will add a heartbreaker compilation with some fancy music over it
but we haven't see eye makeup in so long I just don't know what to do with myself
and I'm also getting some 2PM heartbeat vibes and these
promotional pictures I'm getting vixx voodoo doll vibes
the majority of similarities are actually with black pink's whistle
which I can't show you because Y-
Jk, I'm sorry that joke has been used 3 times within the span of 6 months
I need to come up with better content
if you have an issue you can contact my lawyer, Kevin@law.com
but yeah the similarities with blackpink are actually uncanny, I don't know why people are bringing BTS into this
too bad blackpink copied 2ne1
Hi, Welcome to my 13th scandal!
in all seriousness, obviously that was a joke,
BTS are not the first group to do a scene like this,
but some of you KPOP Stans need to actually sit the **** down
that probably didn't sound as intimidating cuz I'm sick
but I'm trying to show COPPA that I don't make content for literal children,
that includes you velvetmochi (jk ily)
but also this scene is obviously copying 2NE1's missing you
and they pulled an MBLAQ this is war when he went to shoot another member and ended up shooting himself,
I get it, I mean, he is technically shooting himself
but it's a different version of himself
so, do you know what I mean?
he went to shoot someone that didn't look like him originally and then it went back to him,
they're copying MBLAQ
Sorry, I just needed to get my MBLAQ quota in for the day, got my 2NE1 quota in for the day,
what's next? Should I pronounce Rosé like that againÉ
see this is why you need me, because all these 3rd gen kpop you tubers
play fake woke and pretend like they know what they're talking about
when they're literally talking out of their ass
just question everything, you saw a hate video about me,
I mean I don't care if you believe it, but the fact of the matter is I probably don't have 23 parrots
so you might want to fact check your shit
and there is a bit of symbolism within the music video as well
we see these cut screens with one version of themselves compared to another version of themselves
perhaps their 3rd gen versions vs their 2nd gen versions
or maybe just a more clean cut version of themselves,
vs a side of them that lets loose and wears more eye makeup, either way, I stan
but it does give me a Joker vibe,
like they fell into a vat of liquid and come out somehow more colourful and full of makeup
almost as if they have a more mischievous version of themselves
and we'll refer to that version of themselves as doppelgängers
and throughout the music video we do see a struggle between exo and their doppelgängers
and they are either trying to trick each other or harm each other
and this symbolizes to me that we are in fact our own worst enemies
and we end up just hurting ourselves
for example in the MV we see each member kind of
having a conflict with themselves
we see Chanyeol fist fighting himself which screams Avengers to me more than Super M did
we also see Baekhyun fencing himself
and we also Kai kind of tantalizing his real version
then Chen is trying to trick himself with chess
we can even see the struggle in the title screen, with EXO written normally and then written slightly differently upside down
so we have the real EXO then a slightly different EXO
As for the song itself, it really should have been SuperM's debut
why make a Super group just to force EXO to make a comeback right after?
I thought the point of making Super M or Superm was
because everyone else was busy
but as for the song itself, I think it's super catchy
I definitely appreciate it more than ''jopping''
it felt more balanced and familiar and I think these Kpop CEOS underestimate the allure of actual KPOP
and that is why so many US debuts flop, and I'm not saying it flopped, but people were conflicted.
and a lot of KPOP debuts in the US usually flop
but I think it should have been Super M's debut, it would have been risky and not easily digestible for some,
but I think fans would have appreciated it instead of making KPOP that isn't really KPOP
