Hi Thina! not sure if anyone has introduced you to the Enhypen storyline but I have a YT playlist called ENHYPEN UNIVERSE with the timeline & explanation videos in order! if you have time check it out! Love your videos!

Their MV is very nostalgic. Also, the more you hear it, the more addicting it becomes for real.

[@gabrhve7]

they just don't miss, seriously! enhypen is going to be the next big thing: amazing voices, amazing choreo and dancers, amazing sound and lyrics, they got EVERYTHING!!!!! love this boys so much, thxx for the reaction

[@lilli9762]

"The lyrics would seem to hint at the burden felt by this group, who belong to a major label and who were formed out of a large-scale audition TV show, as well as what they’re currently striving to overcome. The tragic beauty resonates in such phrases as “this fake blessing,” “a victory inherited” and “cursed like a war medal.” (Weverse Magazine) its just ugghhh ;-;

[@JunkJournal-s6c]

Yes

[@raeraeme3971]

I'm so vibin' with this song. Their best TITLE track so far for me.

[@tyyyyyytyy7751]

[@jjong_lover727]

Enhypen is this kind of group that you want to look forward for,they really have something to give, performance,concept, vocals, visuals they are so good and I like how they just don't stick in one style of genre, I love how this 2000 vibes they are giving it feels nostalgic actually. I want to see more of what enhypen can give, hoping the best for them.

[@dadian803]

Other than NCT Sticker, this song seems to be polarizing or "different" for some people lol! They say it is their weakest release but I beg to differ since the first part literally kicks you in the face lol! To each it's own I guess. If they know that this isn't really "new" for EN- since they covered Very Good. I absolutely love this genre tbh and the boys said this is their most EN- song ever and I believe them.

[@JunkJournal-s6c]

Yessss

[@dadian803]

knew*

[@stunninglhs1753]

Ppl are not used to seeing enha trying this kind of sound and that shocked them cos its different. I dont think they dont like it more like... they are saying it topped tamed-dashed for them but not fever and drunk-dazed. But for sticker others like it cos its experimental, others really don't cos a lot of ppl hate the flute.

[@AlM22]

Damn I've seen nothing but positive things about it on twitter, on the reactions I've watched.. guess I've just been lucky to not see the negative lol The only valid criticism imo is how short it is, it feels incomplete and would be better with a bridge but apart from that, it's incredible! I'm obsessed

[@lautho3254]

I can't believe those people who are not excited to see Enha trying new concepts and rapping. Like hello, are we just going to stick to one concept only? If y'all listen to it carefully, this is a very good song. The lyrics is so empowering. The vocals, rap and choreography is so good. They need better ears.

[@musicalmami9]

I don't know if you noticed but the new year they are celebrating in the beginning is '99/'00. This was a total throwback to '00's. The stylists nailed it!!!!

[@ogkpopstan]

My annoyingly dramatic self totally missed it.😂 I’m glad I have y’all to help me with the cool details!👏🏼

This quickly became my favorite ENHYPEN song which is crazy, I never thought something would pass fever

[@ArtsyMario]

I hope you'll be able to review their dance practice! I like it so much more than the MV. Ni-Ki's portion and Heeseung rap and high kick really stand out. I always enjoy your thoughtful reactions.

[@MadonnnaMae]

You can rewatch the MV as much as you want and I’ll watch it along with you 🥰. Enhypen insanely Amazing and they rock it 🤘🎸👏🏼👏🏼😂.

[@kianville]

Blessed-Cursed is sooo good!! i think the only thing it needed was a bridge and final chorus imo.

[@eciliana4818]

Yess, agree

[@dadian803]

It doesn't need a bridge tbh. Longer? No doubt. Hello by Adele and Wonderwall from Oasis didn't have bridge but are huge hits.

[@kianville]

@@dadian803 yeah im just curious what type of bridge they would've done. I love how they experiencing new things.

[@eciliana4818]

@@dadian803 i know ofc bless-cursed is hit, but i just kind a need more of it. Because its so good so i need more

[@dadian803]

@@eciliana4818 We definitely need more but I'll give them a pass on this one as they are back in just 2 months and even with an experimental or rock and trap element song they still deliver. Let's hope they continue with this genre because I love it!

[@ohyeahwhooyeah]

Check the opening scene / in the background it’s NYE 1999. They are in 2000 - hence the sound, MV style & their fits 😎

I have to say they are growing as one unit. Omg you can see their personalities coming through. They do sexy like no new group can! Also, thank you for your reactions and as a previous dancer long ago the foundations are always the same and if you don't mention something you see it in your face.

Finally! I was waiting for your reaction 🤗🤗🤗 thank you 🥰

[@kvantassle83]

The more I listen to this song the lyrics "curse like a medal" I wonder if that could also be a double meaning back to the vampire theme as blood is metallic tasting and they were all holding glasses of "wine" or blood depending on which way you want to think it. They have been alive for so long and now that they can be in the sun everything they were told was a lie, they want to be free of the constraints of what had bound them for so long. But also is it now a curse or a blessing that they can be free? Just what I get from it storyline wise.

[@Karen-gx8jq]

This song make me listen more and more. I an clearly see the difference side of ENHYPEN. I never expect this...this is totally my favourite along with Drunk-Dazed. And thanks for reacting our boys' another videos. I hope we can meet you again when dance pratice come out too. Yep, I have to stream but I can't help but watch your video when I see. So I gotta go again.. see you next times..

Go on tina and thank you for reacting to the boys, they are indeed talented, 👏🏼 i really love your reaction in hyping them like we are part of their growth from beginning❤️ and they’ll soar higher !!

[@poppyfortea]

As a person in her early 30s I am obsessed with this Y2K energy. I love how like, heavy the choreo feels if that makes sense. This has such 2000s vibes, the choreo, the song, the styling, the fish eye lens, the lighting, all of it is just so well done! Also the medal thing, I read that it's referencing a war medal. Like you get your medal, great, sure, but what it symbolises and what it means you've been through is awful. I think the song is supposed to be about when from the outside you are seen as being blessed but you actually feel cursed in your situation, and also dismissing the generic or insincere answers given to you and choosing to find your own path and your own answers. Anyway I think this is my favourite title track so far.👏👏🥳🥳

[@gdtgcthvcgh]

I love ENHYPEN and I love your reactions in general, but for some groups...I adore how you observe so much with one or two takes. And I just love their versatility. I love how they sing about much more than meets the eye, about them but also about everybody else on this Planet. I believe we all feel that way sometimes.

[@lautho3254]

I agree that the song is really short. Well, you'll know a good song when you feel like it's short and that's what B-C is giving us.

[@luciafernandez2907]

Es EPICA la nueva canción de enhypen ahhhh djdkfkfk

[@ENHYPEN.MEMBERS]

The first album’s title track, “Tamed-Dashed,” expressed the dilemma that the members faced in whether to conform to society’s expectations or “dash” to find their own way. But Dimension: Answer is the next step. According to Jake, this new album shows that the group has already decided to find their own answers regardless of what society says. ❝ The album voices our will to refuse the answers set by the world and to find our own answers. We cannot be sure about what the right answer is, but still we will not follow what’s given by society, and find our own.❞ The new title track, “Blessed-Cursed,” expresses how the members feel that society’s rules and expectations make them cursed rather than blessed, and it is this concept that gives the song its darker, more powerful tone-and what makes the song the embodiment of ENHYPEN, according to Jay. The song is about the members’ intent to find their own way and their own answers with confidence now that they are no longer in the “dilemma” stage, which Jay says best represents the group and their style of performance. ❝ I think this song is what best embodies ENHYPEN. If we showed a different, fresh side of us in the previous album, this time it’s all about ‘being ENHYPEN’ and ‘performances only ENHYPEN can do.’❞ Sunoo echoed those feelings, saying that he also feels that “Blessed-Cursed” is about the members pursuing their own paths in life. According to a press release by BELIFT LAB, “Blessed-Cursed” expresses the contrasting emotions of growing up. “Accepting what was given to the boys and being tamed by the rules of society seemed like a blessing, but now that they‘ve realized the truths of the world, this all rather feels like a curse,” the agency explained in a statement. “The track is the band’s declaration to the world - ‘I’ll go my own way.❞ This message is evident throughout the group’s lyrics in “Blessed-Cursed.” During the song, ENHYPEN discusses going against society’s expectations of them. “Boundaries holding me in/ To hell with your rules,” they sing at the start of the track. They also talk about going on their own journey to figure out who they really are. “I walk like a lion. I'm making my own history. I don't know answers. I just go my own way,” the group continues in the chorus. The music video for “Blessed-Cursed” adds to the meaning behind the song by featuring powerful choreography they’ve coined, like the “prayer dance,” “lion dance,” and “fight dance.”
