ARTMS ‘Pre4 : Air' & ‘Virtual Angel' Official MV REACTION & INTERPRETATION | DG REACTS

[@DGReacts]

As always, these are just my thoughts and interpretation of the video! I feel absolutely bamboozled by Virtual Angel, damn! MAJOR PAUSE WARNING FOR Virtual Angel!

[@capsov]

Jaden Jeong said this is something only modhaus could make. and he was so right, this is art

[@idkwhatputhere]

previously Jaden stated that this MV criticizes parasocial relationships, you interpreted the blindness effect perfectly

[@kairos-049]

Virtual angel reminds me of the Butterfly MV where they called out to “all LOONAs around the world”. Just as we are all LOONA, we all join ARTMS in becoming angels

[@finnrogue9435]

joining them as angels by jumping from a building was wild but I love the artistry of it

[@arain764niara]

I feel like crying now after hearing this interpretation. Loona got me through some rough times. Them disbanding, my dog passing and other personal issues meant 2022-23 was one of my most difficult year. I've been feeling lost since then and im glad that i can go back and losten to their music but i do miss the group

[@gaiapiazza5329]

This mv is very good, I think the same as you, it rapresents a problematic relationship with your 'idols' or 'virtual angels' which could lead to bad situations like depression/suicide or a bad obsession. I really like this.

[@Givememynameback]

Oh wow. This might be the first time I've ever felt so enlightened by a reaction video. I'm really glad you gave your thoughts on why it was filmed this way bc it does actually make me look at it in a different light now. I was kinda annoyed at first that they did this and confused bc digipedi is usually brilliant with their MV's and this just seemed so chaotic but now I'm back to thinking they’re brilliant. good job. This is why I like your reactions

[@d4nieIla]

16:45 actually loona lore had its own eden as well so that could be also an another connection! the yyxy unit was in eden and even before they debuted they were called the "eden unit"

[@Death_by_Kim_Yoohyeon]

Daniel always got the best reactions and interpretations. This man gets it.

[@Alexander-u7e3z]

ur interpretation is soooo spot on!!!

[@Ami-333]

Finally Artms I can‘t believe how much music we‘re getting 🥹 Have you seen Yves solo debut „loop“ yet? Anyway loved your Virtual angel interpretation, it totally makes sense. My first thought was that it represent how we use social media and how overstimulating everything is. Funnily enough a girl sat next to me on the train today and clicked through her instagram stories so fast it reminded me of this :‘) Like we can‘t even process all of this because we look for a few seconds and then we move on, consuming as much content as we can. Also there are a lot of shots similar to already existing Loona mv’s for example the fallen girl you pointed out reminds me of Hyejus egoist mv that has a similar show (people on Twitter already made comparisons) The song is a 10/10 it gave me the same feeling when I first listened to „where you at“, hopeful yet something sad nostalgic behind it, maybe even something tragic

[@theGinthebuilding]

Dude you're so good you nailed it right on the head with Interpretation of the video.This is the 1st time I'm watching you and I'll definitely be back for more... Cheers!

[@minanio]

Would love it if u watch loop by yves too ❤️ love your reactions sm

[@marcelwannieck]

Air: Just one thing to note here: The "been been there, and I've been been there" line is also a direct reference to LOONA's Butterfly where one line went "been been there, never been been there". Guess they've finally actually been there :D Virtual Angel: HOLY SHIT THIS MIGHT BE MY SONG OF THE YEAR Whenever their tour comes to Europe and they play this live, I'm gonna cry so much, I can already tell. It's like this song is specifically fine tuned to mess with my emotions on a very personal level. About the video, I totally understand if others can't deal with this editing but I LOVE it so much! It's so damn artistic. As for lore theories, yeah I got nothing. I'm just way too mesmerised by everything. Kudos to you for actually getting some coherent thoughts out :D Well actually, one thing about Eden. The original Eden as depicted in the MV for love4eva (6 years ago, god damn) was a pretty hellish place if you look past the pretty facades. And maybe ARTMS have finally managed to create a new Eden that's actually a proper paradise. And then there's the rooftop at the end. Looks like the same rooftop where Heejin (1st member) first met Hyeju (12th member) in Hyeju's Egoist MV. And where Heejin leapt off at the end of the Hi High MV. The crosses in the sky have strong Evangelion vibes. Btw, Yves also just debuted solo yesterday with her song LOOP!

[@trainb4by]

you kinda hit the nail on the head with the interpretation!! i also think "eden" in this scenario could represent the internet, where everything could be beautiful and perfect and catered to you, but it isnt actually reality

[@lacanam]

I don't like reactors who pause, but your saving grace is that you seem to be a very thoughtful, articulate individual that at least has something interesting to say to compensate for "breaking the vibe". Also, you seem genuine. Of course, I just listened to your commentary, because the MV is unwatchable to me.

[@ivegyattocomment]

the ending reminds me of when heejin and hyeju met in egoist.

[@shemple6]

The editing is absolutely terrible and disappointing. I get their message but there was a way better way to follow this concept. Overall, ears blessed but eyes blind.

[@kairos-049]

It’s the MV equivalent of a biblically accurate angel lmao. Blinding to behold and incomprehensible to the mind

[@shemple6]

@@kairos-049 and because of that, they felt the need to induce epileptic visuals and release the mv without a warning? (They added that warning way later)

[@kairos-049]

@@shemple6 oh I was joking I have no idea why they did that

[@shemple6]

@@kairos-049 ohhh mb I couldn’t tell. Yeah, it was terrible where like the whole artms discord server and KZbin comments had to beg for at least a warning. I was actually nauseous when it came out to the point I couldn’t even listen to the album :(

[@kairos-049]

@@shemple6 yeah I made it about 20 seconds before the eye strain nearly took me out. I had to take breaks and look away from the screen and just listen to the song
