[@jchp121]

I know everyone says this about their faves, but Purple Kiss really is one of the most UNDERRATED groups out there. Their music is so genuinely good and they deserve so much more than what they're getting now

[@Afronautsays]

Just discovered them today and checked their sales... They deserve much more.

[@Friedensp4nzer]

*cries in PIXY* But I do agree.

[@NoxNovak]

@@Friedensp4nzer PIXY make masterpieces after masterpiece... Their latest comeback was amazing Yet the album is their weakest (imo) but I think it is because they lack Ella (their leader) Still, Pixy's latest album has two of their best songs... MASTERPIECES Swan Song and Villain Then Breathe They really hold veteran vibes. They have it all and more... PIXY deserves so much more (they are, imho, the second best girl group to ever exist) Yet Purple Kiss also deserves more views, following and recognition

[@Hrathen39]

I don't believe they are underrated at all. They are more experimental and do not consistently put out "mainstream" pop style songs to get the 100m views you probably think they deserve. This is a group that puts out music that ages like fine wine, second best vocal GG after Mamamoo.

[@Hrathen39]

@@NoxNovak Pixy puts out absolutely bops comeback after comeback, what holds them back imo is the vocals and technique, especially now that they lost Ella and even Satbyeol as well. Their concept and dance style is absolute top tier. If Pixy had Purple kiss' vocals but kept everything else, it would be pretty god tier

[@katie775star]

I feel like my top favorite groups all occupy the horror space. Dreamcatcher: Thriller Horror Purple Kiss: Disney Horror Pixy: Psychological Horror And they all have their own unique sounds and I love it so much

[@hyuka222]

Pink fantasy: Mythical Horror

[@manta687-h4g]

Red Velvet: Pretty Horror

[@elzi8391]

i think the concept is that they're breaking in to the station to help the 'monsters' be seen in a better light. thats what i got from their preview film with the support group where the girls say they're gonna help everyone be accepted. i think this comeback really sold me on purple kiss as a group tbh. i love this quirky horror almost billie eilish inspired in terms of vocals and beats concept. we got it a little bit with zombie but now its all there in beautiful glory.

[@episode40]

Yeah there was a movie about an evil witch being recorded so they cast a spell on them to make her a nice witch instead 😂

[@donyt4926]

Yeah so the woman with the black hair and dress was acting as the “witch” on the show that was being broadcast by the broadcasting company they broke into. The people in blue were making it seem as though the objects they were holding were floating from the witch (like a green screen suit but blue). And the sitcom-looking show (along with the talk show) was making the witch and person with the many eyeballs seem weird/evil. The real witches (Purple Kiss) wanted to liberate themselves, and the other nerds, and show the world that they may be Nerdy, but they’re not bad, so they took over the broadcast and made everyone dance.

[@oreos12345]

YESSSS u are correctttt

[@Dannynite]

The Korean lyrics are written “I’m a weirdo 덕 who let the 덕 후.” (Spacing included, I believe.) They’re playing with 덕후 (deokhu), which is otaku/geek. The first half of the line could be referring to being the ugly duckling if you want to interpret 덕 by itself as duck. But otherwise, they’re just playing with deokhu. It’s not a mistranslation per se, but it definitely is way too literal. I can also see how a translator might not know what to do with that line if they’re given the lyrics with zero context. Honestly, I appreciate that line after realizing that it fits well with the theme of just being your nerdy self. (Coming from someone who was made fun of for being an otaku in high school lol.)

[@cotenero]

Ah! I have always been guessing that it's a "덕후" pun 😆

[@AtinyKitty]

Reading the subtitles I knew something had to be missing. I don't speak Korean but I was like no way they're throwing in this stupid ass lyric, lol

[@cotenero]

@@AtinyKitty Exactly! I thought "this might be a pun or something" We think the same way

[@isabellerogers7678]

It made me think of "Who Let The Dogs (ducks) Out", weirdly enough. Thanks for some more clarification!

[@keonhee]

I love Nerdy a lot bc of the strings and interesting use of real sounding instruments. It's fun and a little quirky/silly. Moonbyul was the one who said Purple Kiss should continue with the witch concept idea, and I'm so glad RBW listened to her! The story line is very interesting so far, and I look forward to see how it'll continue next.

[@emma-hx5wo]

Really ?

[@Dannynite]

The quirky strings is really what got me. I get plenty of sad strings in ballads, but quirky creepy strings? A rarity that caught my ears and never let them go lol.

[@KiKaraage]

@@Dannynite Quirky, creepy, theatrical-like! Love it. Classic af.

[@Alena-cq1ze]

I wish the song had more strings! I love the use of them so much.

[@crumui]

purple kiss never fails to amaze me, their concept is so fresh and quirky but also really pleasant to watch/listen to. it also looks so natural of them doing their concept, they are really made for this and that alone is so cool because it automatically makes you enjoy it even more because seeing them having fun at what they are doing is really refreshing in their industry

[@blackzenlite4611]

THIS is the direction that Purple Kiss should literally cement with themselves, like I can't describe the exact niche but they're perfect for this quirky, unique late 80s, campy horror concept. The type of, nostalgic, safe entertaining horror that you would see in classic Scooby Doo and Courage The Cowardly Dog cartoons. Nerdy is literally an electro swing song and I've always wanted a song of this genre from the girls! Zombie was the beginning of this quirky horror concept, it was an excellent masterpiece with the 80s arcade aesthetic with 70s disco funk influences sprinkled through the song. I hope they continue this niche, like Nerdy, Zombie and Pretty Psycho are CLASSICS already. All the best to these girls, they deserve a HUGE following, be it underground or mainstream.

[@octo448]

I didn't know about this group before randomly catching this MV on KZbin, and I was an immediate stan. I went back and listened to their entire discography, their other MVs, all of it. I now know all their names, and I'm all in. Aside from my eternal group BTS, Purple Kiss is now my top group and easily pushed my prior top girl group, Blackpink, to the wayside. For me, it was 110% effective. I also really love that the slightly more subdued studio version makes for easier listening, while giving them room to really kill it on the live performances. Some groups can't ever live up to the studio version on stage- Nerdy looks better every time I see it and each time is better than the studio version. 11/10, I love it, and I want MORE Purple Kiss now!

[@bunbungabriel]

It was the same for me except it was their debut song that got me, I was just interested bc they're the juniors of my ult group (mamamoo) but was instantly hooked when I saw their debut stage and now they're my second favorite group 💜

[@thursdayschildhasfartogo]

as a plory since debut this made me so happy to read

[@castpearlsbeforeswine9744]

As a fellow army who never stanned other groups besides bts I feel the same. I found them through debut and I fell in love instantly.

[@FelisLeo_]

The Disney-esque, quirky horror vibe makes me think of things like Beetlejuice and Hocus Pocus. I wonder how long before they do a murder mystery 'whodunit' concept like Clue or Knives Out? An alien abduction spoof? Or a goofy haunted house like Scooby Doo? They could even pull the mask off the ghost at the end and have it be someone from Mamamoo 🤣

[@WellDressedGypsy]

Purple kiss released a couple of short films prior to the comeback which have a story that leads up to the m/v. About being different and how monsters (fictional ones, like the eyeball guy) have human feelings as well. Also please react Kino’s “Pose” (from Pentagon) it’s definitely Taemin vibe’s.

[@thesdf599]

Thank you for reacting to Purple Kiss "Nerdy". I was really impressed with the promotion that they did for this title track with their short films. The short films they did for "Memem" were good, but the ones this time around were on another level. The quality was good enough that if they decided to made a running series of the short films I feel they would go over very well.

[@dianakr191]

I just wanted to say glad to have you back and even if it isn't the final studio set up, its beautiful!

[@Jasruler]

I think it is a good thing they don't go for that massive drop into a "loud" chorus. Blackpink has that market cornered. This is a very RBW approach to a song, where things are more subtle and textural rather than brutal and dynamic. Both are fun.

[@debow5042]

7:00 maybe not concept wise, but sound wise, Nerdy is litteraly Midnight Circus by Sunny Hill ^^ But I agree, I think RBW ent. is pretty genius, they are lucky to be the "2nd to come" theory. The 1st to come is the one who creat a path, experiment, and start from cratch creating a "new audience" wanting more of the concept, here Dreamcatcher (to me, Vixx didn't stay enough in the horror concept to have really created a new concept, like if we think kpop horror, DC is in the front). Purple kiss, by coming 2nd, "take advantage" to the path created by DC, gathering attention to the people that got used to the GG horror concept and want more.. But unlike PinkFantasy and Pixy that, still didn't achieved to distinct themselves completly from DC (pixy a little more though), Purple kiss already achived that by using an emplty space in the ocean that is kpop concepts : "the cute-ish horror" To summerise : Dreamcatcher = fantasy horror Purple Kiss = cartoon/parody horror Pixy = dark horror

[@KiKaraage]

Yes yes yes. Great piece of writing

[@4EyesComedy]

I agree. As niche as this genre is, there are still sub divisions of it that Purple Kiss can adopt for themselves. It also helps that they are young girls who can pull of those more bubblier dark concepts.

[@starlitsong8456]

Honestly I’m so happy that a YTber as big as you is reacting to such an underated group, was looking forward to this

[@kyujinz]

lol i thought they are very popular? because they are so talented pd reacts to a lot of groups like them though!

[@thursdayschildhasfartogo]

they're way larger than some of the actual nugu groups he's checked out? 😭😭 plus he's been reacting to them since their pre-debut and he really likes them i'm not sure why this is surprising at all

[@kyujinz]

@@thursdayschildhasfartogo yea this is very true but to be fair, not many 'big' reactors have reacted to memem or nerdy, and their definition of 'underrated' might just be 'not bts blackpink twice'

[@thursdayschildhasfartogo]

@@kyujinz man if they found out about nugupromoter..

[@kyujinz]

@@thursdayschildhasfartogo yep they’re definitely missing out on some gems (like my ult bvndit)

[@neirad6083]

Their entire discography are bops!

[@karisaysthings]

This music video remind me of the show: The Adams Family. Specifically the one made in 1964. It's horror but very quirky and weird. It has dark humor but with optimism and family wholesomeness. It's a concept that I'm happy to see in kpop!

[@gabyh566]

I love their cute quirky horror aesthetic! I think they suit it very well. Personally for me my favorite part of the song are all the fun violin flourishes. Would love to have an instrumental version of this honestly bc wow those STRINGS

[@Alena-cq1ze]

I’ve recently realised purple kiss is giving so much of the kind of music I want from kpop. Pretty psycho is one of my favourite songs. I wish nerdy had used more of the violin(?) instrumentals throughout the song. You can hear them in the verses and went wild for those 5 seconds in the bridge but I wish they’d gone bigger with it, in the chorus too. I think a lot of what I want from this song, pretty psycho delivers on. And that song already exists. But I still wish there was more instrumentals.

[@Myumeful]

Sunny Hill's Midnight Circus is my ultimate favourite kpop song, so such a similar sounding/similar vibe song makes me SO happy! I literally have been waiting for something similar to come out for over 10 years.

[@DorothyBanks]

This song is stuck in my head

[@rayneslash100]

This has definitely been my favourite Purple Kiss comeback. I really love this idea and sound, and they do it very well. I like that they're also linking it to real world discrimination, to an extent - they're clearly standing up against bullies and I've seen takes on the "witches" and "freaks" being metaphors for neurodivergent people, which is a concept I both appreciate, and think it's clever to focus on. I would like to see them let loose a bit more vocally, especially as they clearly have the skills for it, and I've only really got that in Meme, which probably departed the most from the quirky horror sound. I also wouldn't mind going back occasionally to the purer horror of Ponzona, because I really enjoyed that, but I think this version works best for them. It's really great to get your insights, as it makes me notice things I've missed, or wouldn't even think of, like how the moving shots emphasize the quirkiness. I was so excited when I saw the notification for this come up, as I'd been wondering what you'd think of it. Purple Kiss is the first group I've followed since pre-debut and I've always enjoyed your reactions to them especially. Thanks for putting this out there for us!

[@emanthekind2140]

Honestly Purple Kiss is one of my favorite 4th gen groups. The second I hear any of their songs I know I'll instantly love it, and Nerdy was no exception!

[@ariake1989]

I actually feel like this is a song that works best within the entire album they released. Like, yes, it has to stand on its own for promotion in Korea (and I think it has on the live stages), but the entire Geekyland mini album was one of the only albums of the year that I have put on repeat beginning to end without skips or shuffle. Can definitely understand why some people aren’t feeling it as much, but the full album elevates it in my opinion (plus summer rain is excellent and not to be missed).

[@syzygy888]

i agree so much the album is so hood

[@az1le]

yess i was waiting for you to react to their comeback

[@endhymn]

I was kind of disappointed the first time I heard it since memeM is one of my fav songs of the year, but I love the song now! It sounds like a more precise version of pretty psycho, like can we talk about the STRING BREAKDOWN? Absolutely amazing.

[@francinev3971]

i love rbw's direction with this mainly because there are already tons of so-called summer queens and kings in kpop. meanwhile, pk's music is perfect for halloween like they HAVE to be on the playlist. dc's dark concept is a lot more general so i think pk found a niche for themselves which is for those who love creepy and seemingly childish horror. also they're definitely making it halloween everyday for me

[@sindaquil_]

LET'S GOOOOO!!!!

[@justwatchingandcommenting]

Nerdy is one of my favorite song from them. It came so random I didn't even knew new songs were out and I didn't even see the video I totally immediately knew who they were and I looooooove it and their voices. O. M. G.! 😍

[@bungangero23]

Purple Kiss is the up-and-coming "Witches" of Kpop. I agree with you PD that they are carving a new niche.

[@jake7304]

I love how the song isn’t only a display of talent, like most kpop songs are. It’s a song, through and through.

[@darlinchris1303]

I really love purple kiss. I’ve just been enjoying how they are experimenting with genres; their execution is just very clean. I do love the ‘creepy’ or ‘horror’ elements in their music especially in zombie and now nerdy.

[@ShyClam]

These rookies have been very fun to follow and I think this mv (and the album) is my favorite from them so far. This is the concept I was waiting for, I really wanted them to push the witch narrative further and create a mv with a more complete story. I think this mv was very well done too. Thank you for reacting and supporting Purple Kiss

[@rachaelh8026]

I absolutely LOVE nerdy, it's definitely solidified them in my top ggps

[@mangbert6969]

HALLOWEEN CAME EARLY FOR PURPLE KISS! LOVE THIS SONG

[@bladedragon8825]

I forgot what song but one song reminded me of Mamamoo's 'Hip' song. So right maybe some of their tracks are what I would call 'Purple Kissed Mamamoo' kinda music. Love this group a whole lot!!

[@jaureguihansen5798]

I agree that this was the comeback that made me realize they were staying with this sort of unique, subdued sound and the quirky horror concept. After following their pre-debut solo trailers and eventually their full group releases, I thought they were gonna be another group like (G)I-DLE or Loona that tries to explore a new sound and concept with each comeback. Honestly, that seemed really promising to me and I was beginning to think they could potentially become my favorite 4th gen girl group (also taking their all-rounded talent into account). I still am impressed by them but I was surprised that they seemed to stick with the horror concept. However, I still do think they’ve explored different genres every cb while maintaining that Purple Kiss sound which I love. I hope it works out for them! They’re easily in the top 10 (if not top 5) most talented 4th gen ggs and definitely one of the most unique.

[@KiKaraage]

Yes I hope the future can work in favor of them. They had great ideas, skills and execution.

[@liamwragg6860]

I’m glad they’ve finally fully embraced the witch concept they’ve danced around for a while, this is my favourite from them!

[@user-um8wi5ym4y]

Nerdy is like the child of Ponzoña and Zombie. It's pretty chill like Ponzoña but has the cuteness of Zombie.

[@eseult]

for me, both the song and mv were 10/10 but i see where you're coming from!! tbh though, purple kiss's music is just PERFECT for me; they're the only artist (not just in k-pop but all over) who's songs i never skip because i genuinely adore every song they've made so far, so i'm a bit biased!! i also really really love the camp-y/quirky horror vibe they've done a couple of times now when it comes to concepts, and with how incredibly talented they all are, i'm truly never disappointed!! also, i highly recommend checking out story films!! i highkey adore the ones they did for memeM and geekyland (and there's continuity too!!!) and i really recommend watching them (and not necessarily for a reaction btw i just think they're really enjoyable to watch!!)

[@gabrielaandrade4595]

i was really excited to see your opinion on this mv, pd! thank you!!!

[@koinzell13]

I love Purki and I love your take on them. I personally think this sound is a 10/10 and Dosie is a hell of a demon when they give her screen time

[@luan2883]

in my opinion nerdy is the most purple kiss sounding purple kiss song to date and since i've ulted them since ponzona i'm living for it. when i found them predebut i knew they wouldn't disappoint and so far they really haven't

[@cristinapuacj7875]

We missed u! Thanks for always bring us the best reviews!

[@nijian32]

This track is hella fun, and the lyrics are right on point! ;)

[@damedalilly3290]

Now this is MUSIC Y'ALL

[@keonhee]

I love how interesting Purple Kiss sound is. I find it unique and different from others. I highly recommend listening to the other songs in their album too!

[@annadeirdre3785]

yayyyy so glad you're back!!!

[@macgoryeo]

I've listend to Joah from their previous comeback yesterday while driving my car and thought, this could also be a mamamoo song from the reality in black era

[@arield8460]

I love purple kiss since Zombie!!! Describing them at a K-pop version of haunted mansion is a perfect example for them!! With that said..I need you to review Jackson’s cruel musics ASAP!!!

[@ania3723]

I love Purple Kiss that's all

[@benji1170]

WELCOME BACK WE MISSED U :))))

[@crumui]

oh and welcome back to yt, pd! i really missed your reactions and am looking forward to more of your videos, which are - in my opinion - by far the best videos to understand kpop songs and mvs even better and to get a honest, but also humble and professional opinion on them

[@crumui]

ps: i am hopefully finally moving in a few months so i 1) have way more time watching your content and 2) will be financially stable (at least i hope so lol) which means i hopefully can join you on patreon again too :) see you there soon!

[@silentnight4025]

Knowing RBW, they don't follow the kpop standard. They like to differentiate themselves from other companies and that what makes them standout.

[@atarab3685]

Life got in the way and I missed the last two Purple Kiss comebacks and only just caught up. I was super curious where they were going with their concept, Zombie was a surprise to me for sure! As a Somnia, Im pretty comfortable and happy with the horror concept, and I'm pleased to see other groups feeling comfortable with exploring it, and Purple Kiss' take on it is so far pretty damn fun. I really enjoy this group and they're sliding into my multistan list, they have some *amazing* voices on this team and overall they're pretty great. I agree they could have gone a little 'more' with the song, but I respect that they're staying within the feel they want to cultivate, too. Im glad that they're with rbw, and have a great 'big sister' in MMM, I hope they have continued growth and success!

[@otdismiljburn2855]

OMG HES BACK

[@blue7284]

YES! I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO REVIEW IT 🥰

[@YejiSanaJisooX0X0]

I think the concept is great, I love it the whole aesthetic very and even sound of the music reminds we very much of zombie era. I also agree with you PD that Dosie, Chaein and Ireh stood out in the MV. But in my opinion, in terms of the music I definitely prefer Ponzoña and Memem as I love how hard they go musically.

[@asdfghjkl1760]

That's the thing. It doesn't need to be loud and splashy bc THAT IS LITERALLY EVERY KPOP SONG. Purple kiss is doing something different (in current kpop), they are bringing a light that is very addictive in it's own way. And i hope they stick w it. Not every kpop song or title track needs to be noise music.

[@malakbunny7780]

This one of the best mvs in 2022 it's catchy music, lyrics and choreography is Fabulous Also the concept remind me of my favourite cartoon monster high these kind of concepts is not common in the K-Pop And I'm gonna after this masterpiece

[@closingguyinpgh]

Love the channel. Lots of great stuff. Thanks for the excellent work! Before this comeback, Purple Kiss was not a group that I was paying a lot of attention to, but this song totally changed that. Dig the strings in the arrangement. Only thing is that, other than Yuki, the vocals of the other members blend together. Minor issue though. One of my favorite songs of 2022.

[@Smittenstories]

I’ve been waiting for this video 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@ezql_]

Sunye from Wonder Girls debuted as a solo artist!!! React to her song "Just a Dancer"

[@fernandalimonge7855]

I was waiting for your reaction to this!!!!! Nerdy is def my title track of theirs so far, though I agree they don’t go hard on the chorus, it sticks to the vibe of the rest of the song which is already incredible so it was a 10/10 for me

[@exosehunluhan8918]

Omg ur back!!!

[@NoxNovak]

Their sound for this song... Spooky Quirky vibes And I love it Is like dark but playful lol Ominous yet fun loving xD

[@why_melli]

yaaay i always look forward to your purki reactions 🥺

[@4EyesComedy]

What I found missing was mostly in the chorus. The catchphrases and the da-da-di, na-na-ni sounds make it feel a little bit empty. Notice when they sing "I love myself" and they leave that last syllable just hanging and then abruptly pick the melody back up. The instrumental of the song is top notch and what carries the song into something that is very enjoyable, relaxed and fun. Also, I think that post-chorus is not going to be for everyone since it didn't go hard enough (as PD mentioned), it kept the tone of the song same to keep that funky, nerdy, almost psychedelic vibe from the chorus. It was a nice surprise for me. I began to really like Zombie with consecutive listens, so will definitely listen to this more.

[@martinschafer7404]

It took me a few listens before I totally fell in love with this, but now I think it's great. I had been very much looking forward to you reaction and really liked it. I hadn't noticed the misdirecting the security guards before. I think the odd angle of a lot of the shots is intended to be them looking up at the security cameras. A commenter on another channel said the duck who lyric is the subtitler's mistake. That a Korean word for otaku sounds like duck who, and that's what she's saying.

[@teresasofiagonzalezmorales1854]

I felt that the song was chaotic in a purple kiss kind of way. I also really liked their concept and hope they keep doing it in the future. It’s weird but somehow it works really well. Also, in case you don’t know ILY:1 made a comeback with “Que sera sera” :)

[@ErwaanSeiiTou]

After zombie, now Nerdy.. i Really like this kind of concept 🔓❤

[@randyng8409]

The song itself was one of a kind in the kpop world and also its really good so i was surprised this song isnt getting the recognition i expected....well we all know the labels behind the idols are what matters

[@j2_zero]

Nerdy has some European folk music influence especially when it hits the strings parts.

[@stefanoraz27]

[@fightthisfreeze]

they still need to listen to memeM too!

[@sserafims]

@@fightthisfreeze they already did!

[@timothyford1103]

I think the letdown is because some of us want a “big hit show-winning comeback” for group recognition, but instead we get a _great_ PK song with multiple earworms. I first became a fan at Zombie, which is a full-on hoot from the get go. Then I looked up Ponzona and was initially meh. Except … the song kept popping up in my head over and over, and now it’s my favorite after Zombie! When Meme came out I thought, yeah, in my head, I know already!

[@dino.nuggies2382]

Idk what rbw is doing to promote purple kiss… but they need to step up their game. This song is an ABSOLUTE BOP! But got 0 recognition their views keep slowing down when they hit 10m.

[@valmosom5595]

I think Plorys will have to do the promotion for now so they need to get on it ASAP! As a Moomoo you know there's trust issues with the rainbow so... But yeah Plorys, let's get it! If you need help just summon the fam! (Or at least me, I'm all yours)

[@glamrockloona]

EVERYONE HOLD UR HORSES PD IS BACK AND POSTING

[@vron124]

Purple Kiss' sound keeps reminding me of Sunny Hill

[@agatahighstein]

Loved ur review as always. Ur expressions are a mood. Also, if you haven’t already, I would highly recommend checking out Purki’s Storyfilms. They’ve done them for the past 2 comebacks and they are so great, both in narrative and in film making. I am not a film maker so I don’t know the technique but they certainly put a lot of money and effort into making them clever and beautiful to look at. The members’ acting is really great in them and they are fun to watch both on their own and to find out more about their storyline. I would love to see a KZbin reaction to those but that’s probably something more along the lines of ur Patreon stuff. Or ofc if you just want to watch them on your own time. Either way I highly recommend them!

[@cheeseburger7918]

i love the song and music video so much! for me the song was a bit underwhelming at first too but i cant get it out of my head now its amazing. I was interested in their concept since the beginning and im glad that they keep doing their own thing concept and music wise and grow into a group with a unique discography

[@claradiogo1522]

Pdnim I’ve been waiting for you to review this

[@aeternam3710]

To me this song is really their sound along with Zombie and Pretty Psycho

[@lafoname]

Happy to see another video for RBW artists, thank you. Really thank you to recognize RBW groups unique identity. All the groups are really their own universe, and don’t really try to follow the trends and copy others like many other groups where i don’t see different. Same i was expecting something else from Purple Kiss, but love this comeback again, it’s fun and really different than others groups. Did you watch the Concept film? it’s really funny and described well the univers of the MV. I really love those concept film. Also did you see that ONEUS Ravn worked of one of the b-track « Summer rain » ? it have one live video of it. It’s really pretty song. ~ be ready for ONEUS comeback in september (spoiler alert: Mix of ASWE, traditionnal, fairy,..)

[@brinaskore]

I like their previous songs more but this one is still good and catchy they are underrated‼️

[@babymetalic]

welcome back PD!

[@bourby-y7z]

Hello hello ! You should react to Sweet Juice if you have some time :) I would love to have your opinion on it !

[@NamuIsIdle]

I think you understand the story behind the MV more if you watch their 2 story films released prior to the MV... it is about 7 witches who were in hiding, because of their peculiarities, coming out and being free, along with helping other "freaks" get recognised as normal and valid, in a world controlled by "normal" humans... and the title "Nerdy" also adds into that, loudly vocalising that being a nerd is okay

[@stefanoraz27]

this is actually my favorite song from purple kiss

[@ania3723]

Watch Midnight Circus by Sunny Hill if you haven't yet, PK built upon that concept and sound. Sunny Hill in particular had a creepy circus concept paired with similar instruments like the playful violin, PK in Nerdy are doing a similar yet reimagined and modernized younger version of the concept. While SH's concept included a centuries old traveling circus, PK are modern yet still referencing classic midcentury horror with Village of the Damned and Addams Family.

As a Dosie Bias i 100% agree with you!😊

I dont really get the impression they are fully understanding the way english speakers use "nerdy".. because it really just feels like a random word to include.. I feel like "unique" would've been a better fit.. or maybe "loner"?? or "trend setter"?? Maybe im just misunderstanding the song myself lol.. Idunno! That being said, I get a bit of a "Billie Eyelish Bad Guy" vibe from this song and it really slaps. It's unique and I feel like that's ultimately what the song is going for.

i think this is my favorite purple kiss song yet, closely followed by pretty psycho, memeM might not even be on the list because there are so many other groups with a familiar concept i love everything about nerdy, the genre, the violins, the video and message and like you said they're really filling their big sisters mamamoo's shoes and its exactly what kpop needs more of again imo!! nerdy also holds up so well? it will take a while until i'll stop listening to it and i cant say that about some "louder" songs with more oomf and like, purple kiss and pixy often get put in the same category because they have similiar elements but they scratch two completely different itches and do it so amazingly well in their own representitve styles and i just love it so much

I love this song. They are really special, IMO. They have the quirkiness and talent that makes me think of Red Velvet, even though their sound and aesthetics are DIFFERENT, I can see a lot of the same comments you made in this review being made about them, tbh - which is fascinating because it's not like I think they're similar really, but similar qualities that make me love them if that makes any sense. But they are NEW so I'm just very excited to see where they grow. "I'm the queen of the nerds" is just... I can't get enough of that moment. I like this particular song more and more every time I hear it. haha The quirky cute horror kind of thing reminds me of like... idk Addams Family or something? It's lighthearted horror? hahaa Haunted Mansion! haha yeah ok I get that a little :D Mischievous is exactly what I was going to suggest! But you got there without me, it's literally the vibe. I am quite a sucker for a killer bass line with interesting vocal approaches and techniques, though.

I'm with you on the Red Velvet vibes! I actually think if you could 'clash' Mamamoo and RV together they would work incredibly fine. And Purple Kiss to me kinda does that while still being their own. Also, since the gg Billie reminds me of RV now I want a PurKiBillie supergroup. I hope that happens 🤞

[@thezircadia]

@@valmosom5595 yesss and loving Mamamoo and Billie so much too, I totally see this as well.

[@harlaylay]

PurpleKiss always do something that's fun but also a little cooky and I love it! PD when you do the LP for this album can you combine it with the MeMe album since you didn't get to it last time? I NEED you to listen to Pretty Psycho. From this comeback every bside honestly could have been a possible TT it's so good

[@Nicolesid1]

The song and coloring gives me Addams family/Munsters vibes.
