Dinka Kay REACTS: GODS ft. NewJeans (뉴진스) | Worlds 2023 Anthem | League of Legends

[@DinkaKay]

Looks like some of the comments I got here attracted some wild characters. From people being mad about New Jeans existing, to being mad that I didn't recognize all the players, to homophobes, to men mansplaning music genre's to me. LMAO, suck my diqú 💅

[@milagrosborges4913]

What? Really? WTF?!

[@jamnana2235]

As a reformed League junkie and Newjeans enjoyer, I think the group has done their worst thing to date: Make me install League again 💀

[@kyles6813]

That is crazy. As people can see I'm not a fan. But hold nothing againt the players or the Band. To personally attack either is just ridiculous.

[@Paul20661]

[@amvbro7033]

I honestly like the song even if it wasn’t as epic and metal as the previous worlds it was still good , I was so surprised so many people hated it

[@tunderdiamant8651]

I mean i'm pretty sure the reason so many people hate it is for the exact same reason people hated last year's song lol The song itself is pretty good but like last year it's kinda missing the "epic" factor old worlds songs had

[@yesyeayepnonope716]

To me it just feels kinda goofy when a song has "epic" lyrics but the song itself does not have that "power" like Rise or Take over had.

[@DinkaKay]

A large amount of people just want it to be club bops, but Riot Music likes to experiment 🫶

[@ZuriXP]

The thing that let me down was the animation, it was not even close to Rise or Warriors animation, i think it was even worse than last year.

[@Xygard]

Ofc everyone gonna hate it like the whole the artist they pick just because hype and their fans like !oh my gawd it's newjeans it's gonna be banger!' And look at the result underwhelming songs that carried by the whole lore of the video sure last year song not really everyone favorite but this takes cakes of what supposed to be an anthem become a background songs of a animation story lmao 😂😂😂

[@stykkz8738]

For anyone who doesnt follow the MV Here's the context: The video follows Deft's journey through his career. So Deft started back in 2013 along side with Faker who was much better than Deft. In 2014 he got his first big break for success. He made it to the semifinals where he would then fall to his sister team in Samsung White. (As seen in the desert fight.) In the follow year he left his home country of Korea to join EDG who was located in China. He would then fall in quarterfinals with his teammate Meiko (a chinese player) to a European team in Rekkles who was also young in his career. Deft would then sit back and get barraged by random attacks which is a reference to the same thing every year. Then it cuts to the 2020 Run with his two other teammates in Doran and Keria. He would then fall again in Quarterfinals with Doran and Keria both leaving teams (Deft also left the team for a year). Deft later returned to DRX (the 2020 team) for his final year (Cause he said at the time, he was going to do his mandatory military service in which a graduate male Korean student is forced to do. Deft did graduate on the side while playing the game competitively.). His 2022 run was his last dance on a team that struggled domestically. But barely qualifying for the Worlds as the worse team from Korea. Deft and his team had to go through so many champions of regions (Europe Champions, Korea's Champions, Winners Tournament aka MSI Champions, Vietnam Champions, Defending World Cup Champions, the perfect season champions.) Then Deft and his 4 other teammates had to go through the defending Worlds Champions in the first round who is none other than his old team EDG with Meiko. Then had to go through Korea's Champions who had 2 of Deft old Teammates in Doran and Chovy (Chovy was also on DRX in 2020). And finally his ex teammate he had to take down is Keria. But Keria was with the same guy at the start of the video. The same guy Deft went to school with, Faker. 10 years after both walking difference paths with Faker always being better than Deft. And Deft making the miracle run for the ages. Deft then complete his last dance as he took down the same kid who was better than him 10 years ago.

I just love that Dinka gets it. She sees through League content, and shows us incredible insights. You ate in this reaction Mother Dinka!

[@DinkaKay]

Ayyy!!! Thank you Mark 🫶

[@aqlanputra7361]

The shot of Keria standing next to Faker like a student and his new dark master, just moments after showing Keria saving Deft, was almost too much. Also that look T1 Keria gave Deft as they met seemed to me like he was saying, "I know I promised you a Worlds trophy, and I'm sorry that it had to turn out this way."

[@gabsterrivera5674]

Well he did kinda give it to him, by losing tho

[@sapphirecrown9724]

"Deft, I'm sorry. I need to win. Please understand." God, I immediately had flashbacks to the Finals teaser, and seeing it play out like it did in GODS actually got me nearly tear up.

[@이마크-r8e]

The song is so good, but the lore was better only if you're into LOL Pro Play hahahaha. The Deft and Keria plot point was such a nice touch. The art style was pretty clean!

[@DinkaKay]

Yeah if you're unaware of the drama it doesn't hit as hard 😂

[@tulindotwav]

I hope you return queen -- Arcane 2 and the lore updates have been so wild!

[@akosicvy]

i only started watching worlds last year but dang! deft’s journey to worlds is such a tearjerker, especially with keria. i love newjeans but it’s sad that we can’t get some haunting high notes in there, which i feel like would’ve took a god-tier song to a whole nother level.

[@DinkaKay]

I joined league in 2014 so I kept with most of the history, but last year really something 🥲

[@cheshireshadow518]

Love it when the worlds cinematics have a story to them and call backs to plays made in the games. I really love Ignite for that reason

[@DinkaKay]

Agreed! It just adds so much to it!

[@mikanarana8293]

It's nice to see a reaction from a true LOL FAN, to see how you know the Lore and don't just focus on the song. 1000/10 GREAT REACTION

[@DinkaKay]

It honestly caught me by surprise 😳

[@just_exo02]

Fun fact. Every Newjeans MV has a story. And RIOT get that Memo and made a Lore in the MV while Newjeans singing the Anthem.

[@DinkaKay]

Oh that's actually so cute 🥹❤️

[@mensrea1179]

I had the same thoughts, the animation and storytelling were so good I forgot about the song half the time. It's a good song to emphasise the hype moments of the story, the writers are the MVP this year.

[@DinkaKay]

You get me bestie, you get me 🫂

[@muammarraihan9351]

The experiment riot doing in these recent year is amazing, and none of it flops to me(i like to listen all genre,i believe it's higher than standard of each song genre(when i thought it would be worst or mid) but this showing how riot(music) do their job so amazingly well

[@DinkaKay]

It's just so refreshing!!

[@ArgKnoxville86]

So, this week we got a new League of Legends Worlds video for 2024 and here I am, yet again coming back to this channel to see if she came back, because somehow I care more about her reaction to the video than the video itself. Miss you!

[@animedescent3599]

Very good worlds anthem, i personally enjoyed this years more than last year, now on to your outfit absolutely chefs kiss. you always be looking stunning!!!

[@DinkaKay]

THANK YOU BESTIE! 💜🥰

[@Volgalist]

Same, I kinda enjoy this year song more than half of the world song including [Star Walkin] of the last year. It's feels more fit to the world championship and there are some kind of epic element that really compliment the song.

[@PonyExMachina]

Unlike other reacts to this masterpiece you actually know the story and characters behind this which makes your video such a delight to watch. 👍

[@DinkaKay]

Wow, thank you! Appreciate it 💜

[@xxhalfasian]

Hell yeah, I can always count on you for the hype. This video was a banger and I did enjoy the song, even if I also wanted it to hit harder. We still know it’s gonna look GOOD at Worlds…!

[@skywalkerjohn8965]

The thing about this song is that not a lot of people actually appreciate the melody of the song. Seeing people who actually work with music (opera singers, musicians, pianists, music teachers, ect) break down the song is amazing

[@AnAnAnanannn227]

Keria deft is so heartbreaking

Song wasn't quite my thing, but maybe it will grow on me. Video was amazing though, so many references. Kinda the inverse of last year, where I really liked the song but found the video a bit one-note.

[@DinkaKay]

I liked both in their own way really, but I get it 😊

[@P.L.H.The2nd]

You know what surprised me going into this? For a feature from NewJeans, I've expected just a Kpop Welp, I almost got it. A well made Pop song that sound like the World Anthem itself than I anticipated considering last year worlds anthem (Lil Nas X song is good, it just didn't FEEL like its own "Worlds Anthem" imo) Also... I don't understand what's the fuss it all about from this music video. I get the hate but, it's for pros. And at least the writer & animations team still acknowledge the existing of both between the champions from Runeterra and real players from earth playing League of Legends Also, this music video is so AMAZING. It goes hard with the song that I felt engaged with the emotion of these players, like omg. It's so good

[@DinkaKay]

Yeah it was basically meant for the exports fans rather than to your casual league player so people feel outcasted... OH WELL 🤷‍♀️

[@mehmetkr8772]

Worlds song videos (except legends never die) always centered around esports scene not casuals. I dont understand why they get upset "now". Like: Rise is the story of Ambition, Ignite is for legendary worlds moments, burn it all down showmakers story(not only but mostly), take over is for new champions.@@DinkaKay

[@AmberSweetPea]

Heyyy Dinka! i really like NewJeans since a lot of their songs have a different sound/vibe than typical bubblegum kpop. I think they did the job of making a hype song & hype MV. Is it the best hype song for worlds? No, but that doesn't mean it's not awesome and I wish anti-kpop men in the comments would be more fair about it. NJ did really good here, you angry guys in the comments of various videos don't have to like kpop to admit that.
