MIXX adventure: a beginner's guide to NMIXX lore

[@nmonji]

bro im not even done with the video but this made me appreciate how unique and different NMIXX really is from other groups in the industry

same

[@vixxexo6855]

They are not that different. Girls Generation I Got A Boy, Stray Kids Maze of Memories, TVXQ Rising Sun and Aespa Next Level also changed genres in the song. Loona, EXO, BTS, Ateez and Aespa also has a lore. Mamamoo, Btob, Red Velvet and Shinee also are vocal based groups. Let us not forget how much O.O copied from other groups like Loona, Aespa and Ateez.

@@vixxexo6855let’s try to not talk down on a compliment!

[@angsilaw]

@@vixxexo6855they aren’t the first to do that-no one should be saying that. They are, however, the first group to make that switching up genres a huge part of their identity.

[@ArrozConPollo_34]

@@vixxexo6855 Why do people need to always say bad things when someone praise something? its not that difficult to stfu if you are not gonna say something fine. And the original commenter was more talking about the concept, the lore...

[@pierrethibodeaux4408]

i didnt realize the lore was so… literal

[@mrsnobody2637]

the vocals are insane, the music is insane, the lore is even more insane

[@vixxexo6855]

I wish their music was better. I feel most of their songs don’t utilise their vocals at all.

As a NMIXX lore lover from their debut until now, I really think that's exactly the kind of video I would have loved to make myself to try to present it to everyone! I was actually readying myself to comment about one aspect or another that you would have missed, or something that you could have totally misinterpreted but it never happened and it ended up being a very coherent and representative essay on what NMIXX's lore is so far, which I'm very grateful for :) You obviously took great care to document yourself with the appropriate videos and other lore documents (like the "Come Here, Oddball" booklet, for exemple, which is a true gem). I would encourage people not to skip over this video's description, as the Glossary in it not only covers lore terms, but also contains several links to other official Lore-related NMIXX videos. Excellent work, thank you! And have a great day!! :)

[@choujimi]

Wow, thank you so much! I really appreciate it! 😭🙏

[@dehosyt]

But hey… that’s a theory A CHOUJIMI THEORY! Thanks for watching

[@seon_njang]

Thank you so much for this. I’ve been a hardcore fan of NMIXX for almost two years now and I had not a lick of knowledge on the lore until today. As you would expect saying that this video has given me a new appreciation for nmixx, their concept and discography, and o.o specifically would be an understatement. Thank you for exerting the time and effort put into this video that I obviously could not find in myself for the past 22 months lmao

[@lalizexe_]

so glad u posted this cause i just started getting into nmixx😭

[@Mayarmageddon]

The quiet instrumental in the beginning of the vid is the intro instrumental for O.O but I wish they kept it in that key for the song because it sounds so much more haunting

[@choujimi]

Same! Or maybe it could’ve been part of an intro/outro track for the AD MARE album? It sets the tone of the album/narrative really well

[@Mayarmageddon]

@@choujimi ohhhh yeah that’s a good idea they should’ve had an intro track

[@overthinkingkpop]

03:24 Not me thinking this entire time that "ad mare" was a portmanteau of "advertisement" and "nightmare" due to the horrible Coke Zero product placement in "O.O" 😂

[@choujimi]

I thought it was exactly that as well 😭 I guessed gross advertising or a commentary on capitalism was a part of their concept (given the donut shop too) until I learned that it was Latin lol

[@NMIXX_MyImpetus]

When ever a new NMIXX lore explanation video comes out I make sure to watch it, and this is easily one of the best I’ve seen! I love them so much and can’t wait to see what happens next on our journey to Mixxtopia 💕

[@nmonji]

this is actually a great theory im getting more and more in--love with nmixx by the day!

[@nayeonchantix]

thank you for making this. This is so interesting. I've been really into their music lately (I even recently looked at the lyrics to O.O again, and I actually really appreciated what they were doing rhetorically in that song), but I still had no idea their lore was this amazing.

[@moodyangel]

I love how NMIXX is just like… yeah we’re gonna be different. No matter what. It’s so refreshing.

[@tee3835]

Its funny because the tiny desk version of run for roses really made the lyrics stand out for me and i was surprised at how heartfelt it feels. It makes more sense hearing all this. It was giving me movie soundtrack vibes

[@Orchid_SG]

That is why I stan Nmixx. The lore is insane

[@IreneBaechu-jn5xd]

I'm in love with this lore

[@jonathonchua8727]

TY FOR THIS VIDEO i really want to see more nmixx lore lol hopefully the next release gives us something BIG

[@choujimi]

Praying for a full album with concept films 🙏🙏

[@jonathonchua8727]

@@choujimi FOR SURE

[@gwenxox]

this is so well done (as always💌💌) i’d loveee for you to do this for other groups you love!!

[@choujimi]

I will!! I’m currently working on an aespa video and it’s taken months 😭

[@Binchanareangels]

I love it when you do videos on NMIXX it's what got me into you😊

[@angsilaw]

I think every NSWER needs a MIXXsona now LOL

[@bierangtamen]

OMG AN NMIXX VIDEO AGAIN THANK YOU!!! I will save this video for another day

[@moonshyein]

Their lore is so much thank you for covering this!!! 3 minutes early btw 😋

[@_ahmed._.khan_8219]

you do gods work by explaing the lore

[@dan.nguyen]

So much I didn't know! Thanks for sharing, this was an amazing video as I get more and more into nmixx!

[@moa27diary]

i hope you have the most long, beautiful, wonderous, whimsical life ever THANK YOU for this video.

[@soapia_]

I've been waiting for this 💜

[@mikan143]

Choujimi i have a theory for you. (ik its not nmixx related) but in the story film in nmixx Stick out ( two girls who keep memories ) and in the video kyujin is crying and sullywoon is watching kyujin cry i think kyujin is turning to a bad person (monopole's side) bc in her hand theres green its like spreading in to kyujin and green in nmixx lore it symbolizes monopole ;-;

[@run-for-roses05]

CHOUJIMI TALKING ABOUT NMIXX!!!!! And I do not appear? Impossible!

[@juliasjingles]

i love you and your videos sm

[@choujimi]

Thank you 😭🙏 I really appreciate it

[@jouxlskaard]

oh wow i only vaguely knew nmixx had some kind of lore but now i’m invested… this is a really cool storyline and it also vaguely reminds me of splatoon’s side order dlc which fits in my head with the part of soñar that sounds like inkling/octoling characters speaking lol. i think that would be a fitting collab tbh.

[@kayliawilson8842]

🤭🤭 you should check out their storyline that they post before they release their albums/EPs

[@noahfan2719]

i legitimately didn’t know nmixx had lore until this video

[@twice__drippin_stan4676]

Did you like Soñar (spanish version)?

[@choujimi]

I did! I’m surprised that Spanish versions of Latin-style songs aren’t more common in kpop, I think NMIXX did it really well

[@oneofmanygoogleaccountsima4221]

@@choujimiOne of my fave Spanish versions is Chung Ha’s Demente-I’m not sure if you’ve heard that one, but I think it’s awesome!

I want more lore

Okay mixx-goddard!

At least I’ll always have peach rings…since green apple rings have been made evil

#NMIXXDESERVESMORE

[@citrusfroot7341]

I like to think they are also mermaids bc a mermaid concept is heavily implied in almost all their videos

[@CatNagTaylorsVersion]

Does this mean there’s a lore reason for why a member left the group? I need answers (I don’t mean the fandom, I just need a question answered)

[@choujimi]

@@CatNagTaylorsVersion It’s (kind of) shown visually in the “Docking Station: Frontier” video; 7 crystals are shown, and a hand removes one of them from the group. Other than that, I don’t think it’s been referenced again

[@CatNagTaylorsVersion]

@@choujimi I just figured that since Jini has been seen at the JYP buildings and according to some blind items have been In meetings about Nmixx to this day, that maybe she has or is being planned to be brought back into Nmixx at one point.

[@nmonji]

@@CatNagTaylorsVersion that would actually be the crazist thing in kpop if she comes back like that would be the most realistic lore ageing ever

[@gal8685]

That very unlikely to actually happened I never seen an idol come back after leaving a group and it will be a bad idea as nmixx is longer a 6 members group then 7​@@CatNagTaylorsVersion

close enough welcome back loona! in all honesty its cool to have lore be so well made and focused. love this

Yes, but where does popcorn and Zero Coke fit in all of this?? 🙃
