Director Reacts - A.C.E - 'Effortless' MV

[@elfhchan]

Yes, that post-military glow is HITTING with A.C.E 💖

[@xiaotian.y]

It was so funny when u said, u didn't remember them having this much MAN in them😂 they all literally just came out of the military😂

[@bettisik2662]

"this level of men" LMAO... welcome to post military A.C.E - they DID man up over the past two years 😂

[@thespianoge]

They leveled up so hard it’s wild

[@-belue-6697]

Post Military Glow be glowing! 😏😎😏

[@thisissabriel]

Ugh. This song is so good! A.C.E never misses! 2:10 And yep, they're 5 in the group but one of them is still doing his military service (Yuchan). :D

[@enbyment]

You should watch their debut, Cactus, just to see how big of a difference 6 years (+ military service) makes in terms of their looks!! They all debuted a little "older" than most groups (early-mid 20s based on the previous Korean age system), but they have really grown up now! I also recommend watching Changer and Higher, which are the two most recent comebacks before they enlisted.

Thank you for this reaction! It was so interesting hearing your thoughts! This MV has a bunch of images which are callbacks to previous MVs, and it's all part of an underlying storyline. They never explain what the storyline is, but there are a lot of theories. There have been images of clocks before like the watch in the Undercover MV! And burning roses.

[@ThisRoscoe]

Thanks for the info!

[@lunarsensitive1]

@@ThisRoscoe You're welcome! It's like a puzzle. For instance, since the working clock/watch is shown around the time they show Donghun, you can guess that there is some association there. And then with one of the other members smashing a clock, that doesn't look like a good thing for Donghun.

[@tiff-kv9rs]

I am so glad for your A.C.E reaction! All of the members are all rounders! They can sing, dance, making rap lines, composing their own songs and funny! This is the reason that A.C.E become my ult group. Donghun is my bias and Chan is a wreaker💙💛❤️💜🧡

[@DrMomT]

There is an image of what looks to be a sheep skull with flowers at the beginning, and the image at the end has horns, but I have no idea what that means. The image at the end kind of looks like a goblin as well, which could refer to their "Favorite Boys"(aka "Goblin") song. Some reactors don't even mention that creepy image at the end and it really does need to be discussed because it is weird!

[@chotamashiro]

I love your theory, it make sense. Thanks for the video ♥

ACE made me a subscriber to this channel! Thanks for supporting ACE!!

[@thespianoge]

Thanks for reacting to A.C.E. It’s so sad they don’t get more recognition because, as you’ve seen, they’re an amazing group. I love the analysis you’ve given it and like your take. I haven’t had a chance to dive deep into it because I’m still red-string-on-a-corkboarding with Taemin’s “Guilty” but I’m definitely going to do the same with this as well!

[@thessilian]

this level of man!!! 😂 we've all felt their post military glow up!! I like your lyrics theory tho! Such a cool interpretention of them. I think a lot of the inserts tie back to their other mv - the eyes opening and closing, time, etc - but I love your analysis of what they mean in this music video - especially why Junhee is turning into a demon!!

[@1oldcrow350]

Post military makes a difference. Mostly agree with the theory you put out, but if you go back to the beginning you see him looking at the girl standing by the window and talking about his insecurities about approaching her. His time is running out. The horned figure may represent the demons that are the insecurities in the introverted mind that keep them silent and it is a frustration.

[@ocean-park]

this level of man! I feel that way every time I see them 😂

[@Theoriginalkay87]

Thanks for reacting to A.C.E! There’s been some talk of how it relates to other videos like a clock being in other mvs and then the darker images connecting to Goblin (Favorite Boys)

[@Mabel23.05]

Thanks for supporting A.C.E ❤

[@Karla_Kass]

Now that I watch your video I'm starting to see this MV with other eyes. You can be right, maybe he lost the girl (you can see her at the beginning), that's the reason of the black suits, the flowers and the feeling of despair; maybe it was in a car accident and he's like regreting he didn't have the enough time to be with her, aaaand maybe, he sold his soul to the devil to get her back, idk. Curious that there is a new song called Angel, the performed it in their concert 2 days ago Or maybe everything is a metaphor

[@ThisRoscoe]

I like how you’re thinking. 👍🏻

[@adrichoice]

Waiting for your reaction video of A.C.E new special project ANYMORE

[@七海哉太]

Thank you for A.C.E's reaction ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Maria-uv9pd]

Great reaction!!!!! Thank you! I appreciate you humor and insights. ❤

[@ThisRoscoe]

I appreciate that!

[@anisadnan7520]

I'm so happy A.C.E just did pre-release and sang it infront of Choice(fandom name) after many years they didn't seen their fans .. and finally at Fancon 11 nov ❤️⭐

[@Maja25_25]

A.C.E has a new song ANGEL ❤❤❤

[@purple_moon2820]

Thanks for your reaction. I love A.C.E so much. They helped me through a hard time and this is my first new song with them. Your thoughts about this Song were shocking me for a moment because it described so much what happens between my husband and me. He just started to realising some things after I was close to leave him. And now he started to questioning my whole person because he never noticed this things on me before. But yes I'm still with him and haven't lost my hope.

[@ShortNeckedAlpaca]

great video! This is the first reaction I've seen from you and I enjoyed it a lot. Really really liked the breakdown of the lyrics, thank you for paying attention to them, because it's a rather "simple" song but the storyline and the pov are really interesting, also really liked how you linked the visuals to the lyrics, makes me see the mv in a different light!

[@ThisRoscoe]

Awesome thank you!

[@travisstoll3582]

Great reaction.

[@kfsdfkfdsfdskfdsfdsk]

[@Ani-xq7we]

Yes!!!!! More A. C. E. please!!! ❤

[@Channieslaugh]

Thanks for reaction 🥰 I love this song

[@sageg4577]

They could be singing about themselves metaphorically.

[@everyrose3225]

My bias Jun!

[@user-uc9gc2uy4c]

Это хорошая группа, когда они дебютировали, они уже выглядели впечатляюще. Эта песня - аллегория их возвращения очевидно (первые кадры - дорога и возвращение кого-то из них, полагаю из армии), они отразили чувства ожидания в той серой тени "улиц", где они прибывали последние годы, все падало и ломалось (крах, падение), это казалось проделками демона (злой судьбой). Смотря клип в обратном порядке, все выглядит как перемотка к началу их пути - в конце резкая остановка кадра и можно смотреть с конца назад (они вернулись к началу). Символично и легко. Жду их с нетерпением.

[@Ace_fangirling]

They support all gender, Junhee also have a BL Drama and A.C.E sang an BL OST song that is also a banger. They support LGBTQ
