IVE ‘Either Way’ is Wildly Confident

[@JordanOrme]

i don't know what that opening hand motion was i'm so sorry please unsubscribe.

[@IVEREIStan]

IM SO GLAD UR RELEASING A REACTION FOR THIS

[@Kingyaserno1]

I’m so exciteddd😭

[@4you2C]

Lol 🤣

[@angelzhkk]

JORDAN WE ARE NOT GOING TO UNSUBSCRIBE BECAUSE OF THAT 😭😭😭

[@jahoonotes]

Unsubbed and reported, Your wish is my command :D

[@jisungg.xx.]

I feel like yujin shined so much in this mv. Her acting was so amazing, when she cried I cried 😭

[@DUNGSTA]

Why did she cry?

[@jisungg.xx.]

@@DUNGSTA I don’t really know, maybe to make the mv feel more emotional? There could be lots of reasons

[@harshitapatel1366]

the director asked her to ofc@@DUNGSTA

[@Schroberry]

Same

[@rodmercruz2257]

​@@DUNGSTAevery member has labelled what hate them

[@LeeshMa]

one of the best mvs I've seen in a while, beautiful Yujins acting was incredible wow

[@WoNYOUngfallingoffaBigbIgStAGe]

Fr you could really see her emotions and it felt so real if that makes sense

[@nanilmt7699]

She should be actress ❤

[@LeeshMa]

@@WoNYOUngfallingoffaBigbIgStAGe totally!

[@LeeshMa]

@@nanilmt7699 i agreeee

[@DUNGSTA]

Why was she crying? 😭

[@_mimi.edits_]

this might be my new fav song by ive 😭😭 im not a dive but i honestly love them so much and their mvs are so cinematographic in style and elegant, it’s just fascinating!

[@angelzhkk]

Yes! Their songs carry so much meaning, too!

[@_mimi.edits_]

@@angelzhkk so true!! even tho i’m not a dive i’ve been listening to them since their debut and i must say either way is one of their best songs (and all of their songs are amazing)! i think this song is a great sequel to i am cuz they were talking about being who they are and being on their own way and now with either way being good either way since it doesn’t matter which version of you you are. and another thing i’ve noticed is that in i am they mentioned their life being a beautiful galaxy while here in either way they have this galaxy glitter and galaxy theme! it’s so interesting and meaningful 🫶🏻

[@pgwrks4149]

Agreed. IVE isn't my fav GG (Tho I would have them in my top 5), but "Either Way" is quite possibly my favorite MV of the year so far.

[@urfavchicken_chicken]

Time to Stan them 🫣🫣 Don’t u think so?

[@taneessuraya24]

Frrr

[@freyja9911]

One of the things that I also liked in the editing at 5:13 is that Rei's phone flashlight was on, and then it cuts to Liz's part where she is overexposed to the light. She seemed to be lighting her up with her flashlight.

[@Blitz_Beast]

Jordan, much like IVE, never misses. Editing breakdown, story analysis, and swagger: he's got it.

[@okamithaihyphens]

I really love your summary of the theory at the end. They just released thier new song "Off The Record" The MV is also good!! DO NOT MISS OUT ❤

[@angelzhkk]

Ive are generally so amazing. From their voices to their visuals! I love how Jordan explains everything so we understand the song more. Thank you, Jordan!!

[@sugarplumis]

im so sorry but when he said “they’re aliens” i bursted out laughing 😭

[@stqrf1sh.mp4]

EITHER WAY IM GOOD

[@iaskarawara]

This is probably one of my favorite mvs of the year or all time. So simple and beautiful

[@illikejellyfish]

I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO REACT TO THIS! Honestly, the members acting in this was insanely good. This song definitely made me emotional and the lyrics really expressed the members well!

[@lanassadbaby3221]

I don't know why, but you're the only reactor I watch here in yt. And, you, reacting and analyzing Ive's MVs, keep me coming back on your channel!

[@swimmerboy172]

Your analysis is amazing. Your comment about the overexposure in the chorus part got me thinking. I think it signifies that IVE is under a microscope or a SPOTLIGHT if you will. That’s why ppl have so many opinions about them. Think the video also signifies that they feel all the negativity thrown at them and even though they appear like it doesn’t hurt them, it actually does affect them.

[@annaleighng5720]

Either Way is a masterpiece and so is this video.

[@caatlvr]

the vocals are insanely so good..

[@userneff06]

Thanks for this reaction JORDAN, IVE really have so many things to show us in their music videos i love them!!

[@nublock5000]

I don't know if I'll ever make it through this MV without crying. It's so beautiful. Thank you for your insight!

[@2FullMoons]

Amazing breakdown, thank you. The cinematography & storytelling is truly amazing in this release and unlike anything we’ve seen in recent kpop. I love how vulnerable IVE gets by removing themselves from the highly glamorous image they present so far to tell us a relatable story. So powerful. I hope you do their next pre-release Off The Record that just dropped ( it’s AMAZING ) & their main release Baddie next week.

[@silvervirgo9755]

Jordan ma man that Dance Therapy is more co-oordinated than half the populus in my area, keep slaying also: "Who-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo"- Jordan 2023, an Icon

[@pastel_elf]

“Either Way” is a song by IVE, a South Korean girl group. The song is about loving yourself despite what others think of you and embracing your individuality. It also talks about how people have different opinions and perceptions of you, but that’s okay because there’s no right or wrong when it comes to your identity.

[@shimapan7718]

IVE is such an Amazing Group i love them. I hope you react to the new MV as well from IVE

[@shlupdug]

this is hands down the best song and mv ive has made so far. thank you for making a video about it! as usual, you make me realize and notice things i didn’t notice before.

[@salahuddinandmiastudios6441]

I AGREE. IVE ACTING ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD AND THE VISUALL STUNNNIIINNG

[@maribelabboud6515]

I really love how you describe the theory at the end of each video cuz sometimes I'd be really confused about the meanings of the mv and lyrics

[@linicchi6411]

I think the glitter is their sadness, consuming them as they themselves fade into the galaxy, then melted away by the rekindled flame of joy and hope when they are happy. Idk its pretty dumb

[@MaiONerds]

My theory is that the gliter represents the pain, tiredness exposed when wonded. Which means a universe is inside the body or the body itself is the universe. All of us are "The One" or "devided pices of the one" or one soul and different versions of body(they mentioned this in official reaction). And in Mahabharat something on top of a finger symbolzes that that thing is under his countrol (the ending). It may symbolise we did this to ourselves or it was all part of a bigger plan detected by God.

[@justme7494]

By far, the best analysis and interpretation of this mv I’ve seen. 👍

[@Tommaso625]

The heart-shaped lightning bolt🫶. It's a song so full of meaning and beauty. One of my favourites. I really liked the ending in which they come out of the darkness and celebrate.🫶🖤

[@somwherethinking]

You understood the song so perfectly 😭♥️

[@Never_fly]

going thru a tough time and either way really has a special place in my heart rn. Ive is a very special group with beautiful souls for members ❤

[@shadedwizard8566]

One of the few songs that make me emotional. Such a great song and mv

[@starryolympus]

my theory is that the scenes from when they are happy and when they are sad show the two sides of kpop although the sad black and white tends to get overlooked. the sparkles on the knee and hand could be blood that has been “sugar coated” as if they are trying to say their pain and struggles are always covered up but the sparkles and colors. the lyrics talk about all the hate they get as individuals and as a group. the I(introvert), E(extrovert), and V thing could be used as a metaphor(??) for how the group got hate for being “co-workers” when really they all just have different personalities. The scene when the bus leaves then i think its wonyoung who is there sees and walks away may represent how all idols have to leave school at such a young age to pursue the dreams of being an idol, and the scenes when they are all carrying bags and struggling/crying are meant to be them moving into their dorms and new life and maybe being overwhelmed and homesick. in the end when its black and white which in the MV is usually when they are sad they start to smile could show that instead of trying to go along with everyone and hide the pain and suffering they have come to terms with it and accepted it? idrk if this makes sense or not

[@pinkerhero]

This was such a sweet analysis, Jordan. Thank you for helping me understand stories in meaningful ways I wouldn't have otherwise.

[@fiftyfiftytwice]

I've been waiting for yujin to act in a drama since i saw her in that lens ad with eunwoo

[@marinagiagkou7404]

i always end up crying when i watch the mv😭😭

[@icecreamkittygurung4211]

I'm not going to lie I've literally took me to heaven and it was so emotional

[@jigokutsuushin]

As someone with astigmatism, my eyes have a built-in star filter 😂

[@nk2012]

Fantastic analysis as usual

[@Kay-pp8hd]

Either way is a perfect song that so distinct from I Am 😭. It’s just a beautiful song

[@marisblue97]

you described the story so well, thank you for appreciating the video and the song ❤️

[@ceyujin]

One of the best reactors, I'm learning so much especially when it comes to the cinematography and video editing. Also how you perceive and make a theory out of this video. Love this! Thank you!

[@taehyunidk4551]

I love this song sm😭😭 i’m not even a dive but i’m so obsessed with this song, this might be one of my favorite song ever😭

[@ohmychrstne]

Your dance therapy is contagious! 🥹🫶

[@mirsolus7789]

Every time Yujin is crying I can't look at the screen because it's just so raw

[@Jaaae00]

Yujin is so pretty and her acting here was so good!!! It made me sad seeing her cry

[@ISailorMuseI]

This is so incredible, the way you explain all the stuff with that passion you see it, you give chills. Please keep doing this with IVE, please do "Off the Record" Greetings from Mexico City

[@Emma-qd2ji]

Oh My they are aliens👽. I died with that part.

[@쌈댕이]

This video is so aesthetic and your way to describe your understanding is literally great!

[@ohitsbre7535]

I seriously love the way you interpret music videos and the meaning behind them!

[@cherly_boom]

some reactor already waiting for you to release the off the record reaction lol so hope u upload it asap 😂 btw love ur analysis as always 💘

[@keenaoutsang]

i love how this song really talks about their struggles or an ordinary idols struggle with rumors and hate. ❤

[@nekograce7914]

I was just watching this old clip from Boy Meets World when Mr. Feeny tells Cory if he keeps letting what other people think of him it will affect the way he thinks of himself and form his future. I feel this is incredibly applicable here to what IVE are saying. And what the kids are allowing to happen to them these days. Don’t allow people dictate who you become. Be you without regret, and you’ll be good 😊 ❤

[@sebas_fierros]

wth?? hahah you made me cry, your analysis was so unique that i deeply get into the video, like idk why but this was so beautiful, i feel high, maybe it's your edition. Love this video😭

[@joshclark8385]

Dude I love your MV analysis lol. As an aspiring filmmaker who also enjoys kpop, I'm learning a lot

[@cheldokyeom6974]

I love your analysis!!! Either way is a masterpiece!!!

[@SunnySky-]

The swimming scene was actually underwater the memebers actually talked about how the water hurt their eyes when they were swimming under the water. So thats crazy

[@butteryflysoft]

EITHER WAY IM CRYING

[@siawung]

Next IVE Off The Record awesome song!

[@pftot7bangtan]

te amo either way.

[@elifoz8919]

You’re reactions are always amazing and detailed l love it👍🏻

[@_mapIe_]

It surprised me that you made a video about either way!! cause the entire mv is like a short film, i'm not sure that you react to this type of mv but here is it. It's really refreshing to see, in kpop as well like you said. Also you reminded me once again how i love your reaction. You can catch it immediately as a professional, that's why i love hearing your commentary. I love this! 🤍

[@maki1404]

“Fake it til ya make it, maybe we shouldn’t do that” EXACT-SOLUTELY, I ALWAYS FELT LIKE MY HEART WAS BREAKING WHENEVER SOMEOKE TOLD ME THAT IN RESPONSE TO SOMETHING THAT WAS HURTING ME INSIDE

[@matthewwhite624]

my theory about this video is that we're all a part of the universe, there's universe inside all of us, every person is basically a whole universe. and in terms of that, we're all good people. and our bruises, our wounds are showing our insides which is universe (sounds weird and creepy haha but I hope people would understand me the right way) love your reaction and analysis, Jordan!

[@beepboopbaap2511]

I was waiting for this reaction

[@clarencetree1114]

I think IVE's music and concepts are something different from the others. The group, the crew behind them do not come to play, they want to influence and change the industry. Despite hates, they are still growing stronger and they deserve more recognition

[@Emily-hz3rm]

Although I know I'm late, but I'm crying now 😭 I can relate to this so much at this current situation

[@pbee_k]

This is my favorite music from Ive. I just love the lyrics and the music video. It hits different.

[@I_LOVE_NMIXX..ITZY..Red_Velvet]

IVE's 'Either Way' MV is incredible. The song is great. What a track !

[@danicapatrizesison2651]

This song hits me so much am i the only one crying

[@adeleange]

Ive delivered a new concept, style, message and i´m here for that

[@Kimberly2.0.]

Your gonna love off the record mv ❤

[@yoslinn_]

I love watching these types of videos because they help me see mc in a different perspective

[@shineinstars]

tje song production os so gorgeous too loke omfg its so rich and full. u could play it at the lowesy volume and it wpild still sound full of life

[@tutuwalling235]

I don't listen to IVE or gg in general but this song ryt here is my kind of music. It just hits the feels.

[@angelzhkk]

hi jordan! Thank you for the amazing video!

[@sonny7874]

Love your review of this amazing cinematography. Thank you!

[@soosbei9274]

beautiful video... wondering if the shot of yujin walking into the suspended lights at like 10:18 has to do with the famous shot from birdman?

[@YourlvvJass]

My theory is that on the red jacket scene, it means like they are ONE person sharing the same problem and how they try to fix it or get through it, the moving things scene means that they are trying to move on from the past ( they got a lot of hate ). The whole galaxy thing means that they are in one universe together, a whole new universe where its brand new and undiscovered, maybe wonyoungs knee, gaeuls hand scane means that they are holding that new universe where everything is going to be okay if they help eachother out. (?) Ngl this mv is really good🤓🔛🔝 ( This is my theory, my opinion ! )

[@moonlightsculptor6194]

I just love your interpretation of this MV 🥰

[@hohoho080]

2:40 this scene for some reason always makes me tear up and i really dont get how, it makes me feel so emotionally overwhelmed

[@Naithesther7085]

This MV was just incredible

[@twicefan523]

this is beautiful. thank you, jordn

[@katesodrippy]

OFF THE RECORD BY IVEE PLEASEE

[@violet-pn3ks]

this video was such a fresh breathe of air, its so human and empathetic.

[@aaiishwaaryaa]

Ringo by ITZY has some really sick camera work! You should give it a watch if you haven't. 😁🙌

[@maki1404]

isn’t it crazy we come from stardust the most void of space and miracle of life has given us the ability to be happy, experience feelings… truly amazing to think about

[@Youth-l7d]

This MVs Director is one of the popular TV commercial director in South Korea!

[@ninuh]

yu kwang goeng is a director known for his commercial videos, the tamburins CF of jennie is one of his well known works. Recently, he's been starting to work with the kpop groups, starting with enhypen. you should check out the concept film he directed with them. his is one of my fave film styles

[@Walker-017]

This song has been my favorite from them since it released, its nostalgic to me

[@joschengoh3342]

Omg I LOVE either way so much! Now even more! Thanks for the video!

[@CharcuterieBoard]

The beginning of the song really reminds me of IU and OhHyuk song “I can’t love you anymore”

[@rivanonaufal]

This is just deeply emotional for IVE cause the lyrics sang really suit their situation

[@Vargrrr]

I love your dance therapy. Always looking foreward to it. Oh, and thanks for the explanation. :-*

[@kamilas7737]

Love your commentary on the meaning 💗 God bless you, Jordan Orme.

[@rye7823]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO DO A VIDEO ON EITHER WAY

[@FlowerMumu]

Superb analysis! This is why I watch Jordan.

[@_ahmed._.khan_8219]
