It also fits the blocking too.

[@spacetardigrade]

My friend mentioned that they seem to have more members in this choreography because of their blockings, spacings, and utilization of stage lol. And i think it’s intentional to mimic a musical stage.

[@DarkplayerA21]

A lot of the baseball references in the dance are hand gestures you will see in baseball. For example, the one with Hoshi in the beginning (with Jun and Dino) where they are moving their thumb/hand side to side usually is supposed to be a strike (done by the umpire). Joshua with his arm straight up with one finger pointed out is a gesture for infield fly. Jeonghan with his spin part in the second chores, where he twirled his finger around, gesture for a homerun.

[@ElliottNewVillage]

This is tight! I don’t play baseball so these references definitely go over my head. Shoutout for noticing!

[@DarkplayerA21]

@@ElliottNewVillage nah. it took me a while to see it too HAHAHA

[@DC11961]

I also wanna add, from a musician standpoint that there’s even more layers to this tied to the baseball theme as well. In music (but specifically in Jazz), when we wanna make a rhythm sound ‘jazzier’ we “swing it”, which in combination with the baseball theme of the MV and the general Big Band groove of the song, makes it even more clever. I’m not a Carat but holy hell I was so impressed with this musically and also choreography-wise (because like Elliott mentioned, they managed to encapsulate the feel and style of the music into the choreography) and I really would love to see them perform this at an awards show sometime in the future.

[@panchoairalez]

been waiting for this finally!! also, did you know that today SEVENTEEN got awarded the Prime Minister's Commendation at the 2020 Korean Popular Culture and Arts Awards! they are the youngest and 4th boy group who received this award following JYJ, Shinee & EXO :) and also got their first win with home; run !!

"You gotta love The 8"... True... Every Seventeen choreos just get me off my head every time.. It's just amazing how Hoshi and the other performance team plus their choreo teacher just comes up with not only the cool moves but also the perfect line formations that only seventeen can do...

1:57 If you look at Dokyeom (guy in red) he slides under Wonwoo’s legs, it seemed to me like it was a criminal escaping the scene (with the diamond of course). Dokyeom mightve started off with the diamond and then eventually it got passed around (like you see in the mv with jeonghan and mingyu, then to Minghao and Wonwoo)

[@JM-sc1pi]

Thank you for highlighting The8's "spin"! Always my fave and wi never get tired watching it (in awe) lol

[@rhaisa8304]

I couldn't help but share this, so regarding the8's ending move (the one where he spins on his toes then transitions to spin on his knees) is actually a move taken from his previous martial art sport called Wushu but specifically in the sub-type Taolu. It's not the whole move but the part where he spins on his toes is a move called the Inside Sweep and it's done mostly by snapping your hips and letting your foot follow the direction of it with your hands adding speed to the twist by being tossed to the same direction but towards the chest. Because I'm practicing wushu, the first time I saw the move I instantly knew that The8 had once again mixed a move from Taolu with his bboy techniques and it never fails to amaze me how seamless he's able to mix them together and create his very own moves. Kudos to The8 for another wonderfully mixed technique and to Elliot for mentioning it. This is another great analysis/reaction video by the way, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!! I hope you stay safe and warm!!

[@s.tres.s5031]

10:25 i find the hand vibration thingy super satisfying with the guitar in the music IDK ITS JUST THOSE SMALL DETAILS THAT MAKE ME LOVE SEVENTEEN EVEN MORE 😩

[@juanpaula152]

actually theres this reactor that genuinely thought the hat drop was part of the choreography until the end and i cant blame him, svt too smooth man

[@kayehilajos7020]

This is jeff right? Hahaha

[@evabullecer2132]

Is no one gonna talk about how Joshua made the hand gesture for homerun (right hand up, and twirl) in 4:46? Right before the chorus.

[@aju_dee]

The last chorus is looks so chaotic but it's very coherent, I love it. I really got the broadway musical from that. Seventeen is just.. I'm speechless.

[@caffeinedependentrish2109]

Woah didn't notice that but it actually made it better, that's so cool

[@caratforminghao8400]

YAS. THE8 IS REALLY AMAZING!

[@baetteokki444]

The8 is actually a member of one of the best (#6 in the world) bboy groups in the world. So its normal that he can do that choreo very fast and clean.

[@prettyflower6548]

Omg I am waiting for this reaction to this awesome legend choreo😭 THANK U SO MUCH!!!

[@DC11961]

Elliott this was such a phenomenal analysis and I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said. I was absolutely blown away and I’m in love with just how layered this is, from the music and the choreography to the lyrical and physical references. It’s downright impressive. Like I mentioned in a response to a comment below, one of the things that blew me away was the connection between baseball and music and how they chose to represent that in the song/choreography/video. When we (because I’m a musician) want to make a rhythm sound jazzier in music, we say to “swing it” which is a cool parallel to how they say “swing” as in swinging a bat in baseball. Seeing those two combined in one video was such a clever and refreshing idea and I couldn’t be more impressed with Seventeen for how they executed this. I’m personally not a Carat, but I thoroughly enjoyed this and can’t wait to see what else they’ve got coming our way in the future. 👏

[@rosetteangelazape3639]

when i see seventeen and elliott, i click

[@CTGOtaku]

OMG yassss Elliott!!! I honestly am so obsessed with Home Run, and a huge part of that is the choreography. It's so innovative and different and I love how you broke down some of the different moves too. The formation changes and transitions are some of my favorite parts since it seems like they're never in one formation for too long - ever flowing, ever changing. It was also great to see you appreciate The8 so much because SAME. I love rewatching this dance practice for The8's hat and the ending pose! Also, I'm hyped to see your dance cover of Home Run!!! I'm sure you'll kill it Elliott!!!

[@SapphireWolf1996]

[@haylstorm6]

The choreo at 7:41 reminds me of a jam circle, especially with the snapping on the even beats!

[@loredanaannacosi9224]

7:26 this wave movement, I don't really know if it's Broadway inspired or Going Seventeen 12 shadows inspired! But Hoshi being Hoshi, maybe both! Love your analysis! Love from an Italian Carat mom ❤️🇮🇹🥕🙋

I usually ignore dance reaction video but when it comes to you react to Seventeen videos, I immediately watch it until the ends because I really like how you try to understand the concept and give your opinion in relaxing and nice manners, like you don't really force viewers to accept your opinion. I like also how u understand members dancing style, u understand the song concept and talking about transition..which is really fun. You really study a lot and I'm always looking forward to watch your video react to Seventeen dance video because I feel like your reaction is very honest. My favourite fun part is looking at Jeonghan and Jun expression during the whole song. Hoshi.. is always amazing. No words can describe how amaze I am with him.
