SEVENTEEN (세븐틴) 'MAESTRO' Official MV Reaction

[@erintheartist]

I think there's a reason why all 3 leaders are missing from their units initially. Coups outside in a car, BIG Woozi on top of the building, and Hoshi glitching/possibly leading the revolution + Hoshi mentioned on live that they might be having more than one comeback this year and I'm just hoping this means another Leader Line Unit Track!!!!!

[@phurbudolma827]

N if u have watched the special gose ep ' the musical heirs' scoups was janitor who didn't join Mr. Maestro , woozi at last min he refused to join and Hoshi who kept asking y he should believe Mr maestro!!!! I presumed like that can someone relate🤐🥹😱😭 n even in mv too there is smth related omg

[@frostedjosieos3193]

Starting with Super, Seventeen’s recent comebacks have been all about Woozi deciding it’s time for him to be the main character

[@Sugas_Girr]

And I think we're all here for it!!! 😂 I guess all of Hoshi's talks to him have finally sunk in...!!! 😘

[@BeverlyPennell]

Woozi explained that A.I. can be disconcerting if it's not kept on a leash...thus the cyberdogs on leashes. He said we can WORK WITH A.I., but should never let it take over. As for who the REAL maestro is, I think it's Carats. Read the lyrics again, and like Wonwoo raps (paraphrased) tell me what rhythm you want because your wish is my command. And Woozi even sings "following the maestro's lead"...which he wouldn't sing about himself. PLUS...Mingyu on a mission to find the true maestro turns and looks into the audience. So if you ask me, Seventeen is saying Carats are the REAL maestros since they follow OUR lead.

[@meganc9395]

Woozi does look like Edward Elric!! Also when Woozi appeared I about died, too. All the other members about killed me, too, 😂

[@cinnamorolllover99]

Seventeen never dissapoints, they can pull any concept!

[@erintheartist]

and you are correct! Jeonghan is definitely Seventeen's LOKI!!!

[@_darumdarimda]

Woozi indeed our main protagonist!

JRE, i've been watching you since 2014 and i've seen you react to svt since their debut!!! Thanks for being here all the way from the start 🥹 same sentiments, they made me so proud!!! Seeing how their music grow every comeback is just so dope. They have such great work ethics and their bond is really no joke! Thanks for reccommending them, I do think your platform reaches different heights! Hope you'll have an album listening party too! You'll love Lalali 🔥🔥

[@jamesrawlins735]

This is definitely a candidate for MV of the Year (Still think Love Wins All will take it but this is really impressive)

[@_darumdarimda]

honestly we thought there will be AI editing since the teaser said but there isn't~! good thing! they credited all the Art team, 2D, 3D, VFX and all

[@lynx4272]

5:08 that's my ult, that's my man 😌 he do be extra on svt going. He could be any role in a movie, show and I'd still root for him ❤ Never looked at woozi as Elric so that's interesting and Mingyu is Tadashi from BH 6

[@carat__0605]

This is the mv of the year.

[@Raeray440]

I was the one who warned Jre about anime Woozi. We share biases too 😊 the choreo goes hard in this video good luck to those trying to do the dance challenge. Edit: I can't wait to see ReacttotheK's reaction to this video. This is something they would freak out over.

[@mt_girl579]

Love how the video is 17 minutes

[@HarryPotter-eh4kj]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR U !!! U LOVE WOOZI, I LOVE U

[@marinal.]

Hi, i am back. Good reaction, ty. Kinda gave me Stray Kids vibes actually. Liked the fits and makeup. Loved seeing Woozi play the piano. It's a good song. Interesting mix. I do like their older stuff better because it's more my vibe. I did not see any teasers. Good song name. For sure dark theme. Get a feeling of them vs. AI. Noticed that they recycled some scenes from their older MVs. Also, Joshua touching his finger with the robot AI is a reference to Spark of Life by Michelangelo (sistine chapel) or The Creation of Adam It's referred to as both. We humans created AI. They just released a best of album with 30+ tracks on it [4 of which are new]. Hugs. - -2019 ARMY NY USA 💜 @littlemissfahema said on 4/29/24 The concept is very much Seventeen vs AI.. they’re showing that in this day and age you can use as much as AI as possible but they will never be better than the real. SEVENTEEN are the maestro. They produce, conduct, choreograph, write, compose and AI will act according to their command. Also the whole “moving too fast comment”.. the music video is glitching a lot bc AI in a way is trying to overthrown seventeen by trying to get rid of them. If you look at Joshi scene at the end he’s in the centre while AI is moving in circles. Showcasing that they’re not listening to him; the maestro. But the whole MV is like a grand concept of svt utilising AI to let everyone know SVT are the maestro. AI will never be better than them. Well that’s what I got from the mv. @peachakus said on 4/29/24 Woozi shared that he sampled 7 different seventeen songs in maestro! @ummehabiba1990 said on 4/30/24 I'd say I agree to a certain extent with the music being the same in the industry recently however this MV was more to showcase how us as a society we are loosing to AI and how it is even taking over our music and because of this there was a bit at the end where a question pops up right after you paused which asked "who is the real maestro?". Also the fact that most of this song had samples from previous seventeen songs mixed in it like at the start it was their debut title sampled in. and regarding the rest of the album I think you'd like LALALI the hip hop unit song. @ayaalvarez8563 said on 4/30/24 Woozi shared that he used 7 samples from previous songs in making Maestro. @sumaiyabinteshihab942 said on 4/30/24 You remember? Minghao's tap dancing and wonwoo's 16,32 beats these all r from the dance break @thzaaai said on 4/30/24 Actually there's a story in the mv and carats have been creating theories. With the question 'who is the real maestro?' so mostly it's about seventeen vs ai/robots. Seems like some of the members have been captured by the ai, like hoshi in the first scene. -Then they show Wonwoo, Mingyu and Vernon walking the hallway, maybe they break in to the building to save them? -Woozi might be the mastermind in helping them too, as he was playing the piano on top of the building and helps breaking the windows. -the members starting to realize that they are the real maestro and they can control the robots, which is why the robots are dancing with them. -then the scene in the second chorus, the robots are trying to shoot/kill svt but there's a glitch saying 'moving too fast', svt's dancing is overpowering the robots which makes them failed to kill svt. -and if u notice in the first scene, the metronome (the building) didn't move and look dead, meaning the music are dead because the ai are taking over at the moment. At the end, seventeen were dancing with the beat and the menotrome behind them finally start moving, and the city seems to comeback alive. -to conclude, seventeen (human) are the real maestro. Also the scene when they showed all the members in their units, the leaders are not with them. Even in performance unit, hoshi is the only one who was glitching. So there might be something about the leaders? Wow sorry for writing this long. @Surbhi_z said on 4/28/24 This MV intends to address the integration of AI technology in art, portraying a symbolic 'battle’ between SEVENTEEN and AI and sending a message on who really controls today's world, "who is the maestro?" @BeverlyPennell said on 4/30/24 It's called a conductor's baton. The building is a giant metronome. And Joshua with the robot touching fingers is inspired by Michelangelo's "Creation of Adam". As for the part that confused you (Mingyu turning around and seeing a regularly dressed person in the audience), I think that's probably the key to the question, "Who's the real Maestro?" It's a regular every day person holding the baton; and during Wonwoo's fight scene he says (paraphrased) tell me what rhythm you want and you'll get it, because your wish is my command. Seventeen, I think, is telling us that WE are the Maestro, because WE are the ones that inspire them...lead them...conduct them...let them know what we want...and then they give it to us. Just an idea. I could be wrong, but it would be SOOOO Seventeen if that were the message! @potaytowpopotee4580 said on 5/2/24 Another fun fact, Seventeen rebelling against Al taking over the music industry, by switching up unpredictable beats and mixing genres seamlessly in one song. I think this is them challenging ai by showing that ai is nothing compared to/ without humans, who still have all the control and are in charge (the real maestro), they one to tell that we humans are the real maestro. And about the mv, they're trying to tell that instead of the robots taking over, SVT fought against it and in the end, they have control over the robots, where it follow them. If you look at the lyrics they actually describe the song as it's going on. It's describing what is happening or going to happen, like they are building the song as it goes. The lyrics are basically 90% that. That's what makes it genius. Like Wonwoo for example, saying he's switching up the rhythm as he's doing as exactly that and then saying he's adding in techno when that's again what was happening. The story is them creating the song. Its freaking genius man. ALSO, fun fact, wonwoo took acting class for that fighting scene only Ps : There's a lot of theories on twitter and on TikTok regarding the story line behind the MV which will make us understand the mv and the lyrics connection to the mv and dance even more (As always, svt and the small little details lol). Eagle eye carats, even found out about the theory where gyu is an impostor to this human vs ai (robots) thing. @BellaAMA0204 said on 5/4/24 The word “ scherzo “ that Scoups uses in his rap can have a double meaning, it’s a musical term but also means joke in Italian “ a seventeen’s joke” amazing! @yashikasaxena4626 said on 5/4/24 So the main theme is who's the real Maestro between humans and robots. In the mv the theme revolves around the fight between ai taking over human talent signified by the ominous atmosphere in the beginning. They're trying to take back the world from the hold of robots. The guy was glitching (hoshi) is captured by robots. Those blurred instruments are actually machines which are not listening to the guy trying to control them, he realises this and alerts everyone else. And the rest of them are on a mission here as it says Maestro mission. When that scene of the high note comes at 12:57 they're actually outdoing the robots by their human talent, that's why the high note is so crazy good, it signifies that robots can make things but they cannot match the human talent and speed! Also why it says they're "moving too fast" and "it would not be detected". The pause then happens when everything goes still and Mingyu is running towards the curtains to find hoshi (the captured guy), then we see The8, who comes there to tell him that the mission succeeded and they defeated the robots. After that we get into the last dance break where they dance at an insane speed, which signifies that human speed and talent can't be matched by machines and humans will always be the real Maestro at the end. The metronome is also moving very fast at 64 beats if I'm not wrong. The mv is like a mini sci fi movie haha. @Smile-xe4vg said on 5/4/24 Thank you for decoding the mv, I guessed some things but was not able to put it together. I think what adds to the story is that every orchestra has a maestro, the person standing in front with a baton who coordinates and mostly controls the tempo of the whole orchestra. So when there is no maestro, which is Hoshi, who is captured then there is no tempo signified by the still metronome in the beginning. when humans take control, and the maestro takes the lead then the tempo returns as shown by the metronome building in the last. Jeonghan looks like a villain in some anime specifically The Black Butler! 0.0 #LALALI (HipHop Unit) 5/10/24 - 0 AM (KST) 5/09/24 - 11 AM (EST) #Spell (Performance Unit) 5/17/24 - 0 AM (KST) 5/16/24 - 11 AM (EST) #Cheers_to_youth (Vocal Unit) 5/24/24 - 0 AM (KST) 5/23/24 - 11 AM (EST)
