RETIRED DANCER'S REACTION+REVIEW: LOONA's Kim Lip+JinSoul "Eclipse+Singing In The Rain" M/V!

WTF DOES “OG KPOP STAN" EVEN MEAN?!
Supposedly "original gangster”, can be seen as “old generation", personally viewed as “old-school”.🤓
I became an avid Korean music aka Kpop listener/lover since 1998. Korean and rap music were my coping mechanisms from the bullying I experienced in middle school through high school and my love for the genre has stuck by me ever since.
Unfortunately, I took a huge break from Korean music around 2015 when I was officially diagnosed with lupus nephritis and seizures; I was receiving and battling years of chemotherapy and dialysis along with taking 32 pills a day, so I had no mental/emotional/spiritual room to keep myself updated with the genre. Luckily, I'm in remission now! Doesn't mean that lupus and seizures are gone because I am still very capable of frequent flare-ups of I don't take care of myself, but I make sure to do so enough to manage and live as "normally" as possible.
When I made this KZbin name, I was thinking from my graphic-design-major perspective of a brand that will not only describe what my content will be about but will also align with the times, and y’all know that “Kpop stans” have been a thang for awhile now so hence the cringe-worthy title, OG KPOP STAN. (My love for Eminem is also relevant.😂) ALSO! Just to be SUPER clear- me calling myself an "OG kpop stan" does NOT mean that anyone who's listened to kpop after me is inferior or less-than. A kpop lifestyle is a kpop lifestyle regardless of time. Please don’t get that sh*t twisted.😛

Comparing Kim lip to BoA has to be the perfect compliment ever

[@cjc363636]

True. The total magnetic allure is so similar.

[@MaximVitalievich1]

Yeah, BoA must be really happy

[@hariellevi8829]

kim lip's representative color is red and jinsoul's is blue. also kim lip's representative animal is owl and jinsoul's is blue betta fish

[@DaebakJjang]

The OEC subunit's main focus is colours hence why they're a dominant theme in the members' solos (you'll notice this again in Choerry's solo MV). The previous subunit 1/3 main focus are places/countries hence why they filmed all around the world (each member has their 'own country'). The final unit also has a main focus but I'll leave that for you to figure out 😁

[@presumptuousweebaby6649]

OMG HIIIII~

[@tamarlevy5949]

13:50 Singing in the rain has so many changes...? You're not ready for Choerry's and Olivia's solo then lol

LCM is epic

[@claudiamarie2613]

lcm is definitely cultural reset

[@johnmarkdelapaz2998]

This is so true! So much duality on both of those music video.

LCM is gonna rock a few brain cells LMAO

I always find it entertaining when people reacts to LCM🤣🤣 their shocked faces🤣

[@juliusxhristian]

5:39 "this is so powerful" well actually she broke the kpop stan twitter when she released eclipse and this song gained so much attention in international non-Loona stans

[@hongjoongsbutterfly]

I can't wait for you to watch Choerry's solo. Also every member has a representative color and animal. Kim Lip's is red and owl. Jinsoul's is blue and beta fish. Choerry's is purple and a fruit bat. You can usually see elements of each member's color and animals in their MVs.

[@kkswang7238]

[@hiiamlavi]

Finally TINA reaction to OEC !

[@-Matchuchu-]

THINA

[@odd1545]

Best sub unit! But I still love them all!!!

[@Drewski217]

This unit's songs were a real gamechanger for the group's visibility as a whole, TRULY a moment in time! I've loved these songs so long and fully that seeing a fresh reaction again is even more special. Choerry is next!!

[@hyejusguccibelt]

we’ve been waiting for this ahhh omg loving your loona journey oh by the way Thina! I liked how you mentioned how minimalistic the MVs were compared to previous ones because actually this was around the time BBC realized how much they’ve been spending (each 1/3 member went to a different foreign country to film their respective MV). So for OEC they focused on editing/lighting as you can see instead of expensive locations! Loona’s solo debuts were estimated to be 9.9B won ($8.7 M USD).

[@HawkKing2000]

Funny how even on a smaller budget, this is one of Loona's best videos :)

[@milkflavored]

@@HawkKing2000 just goes to show budget can’t hold back imagination ♥️

[@hyejusguccibelt]

@@HawkKing2000 so true bestie

[@sweetmimosamommysaranghae3163]

But then again the loona project is the most expensive project for a kpop group

[@hyejusguccibelt]

@@sweetmimosamommysaranghae3163 yep 12 member solos is already a huge price but to send them abroad makes the cost exponentially higher. iconic but man i bet they’re still paying off that amount...

[@user-ex9nk4ye8x]

I can't wait for Love cherry motion 😂🤯💜

[@pinkiernailz]

me too omg

[@killdracula526]

she posted it !

[@JamesTrickington]

“It’s their comeback, they deserve it, my reaction can wait.” And we what, ladies and divas? Stan. Can’t wait for the LCM reaction mhm yup ☝️

[@gustavomora3043]

I'm glad that you are enjoying the Loona ride, for me one of the best things during their pre-debut era was trying to figure out what was each girl Representative Color and Spirit Animal, and the Odd Eye Circle girls are probably the more color oriented MVs. I supposed that by this point you have realized that HeeJin is the Rabbit, HyunJin the Cat, YeoJin the Frog, Haseul the Bird, Vivi the Deer, Kim Lip the Owl and JinSoul the Fish and so on... The Loona theories are half the fun.

[@tuantran1468]

Kim Lip the leader of Odd Eye Circle has such an "alluring" vocal, so unique to K-Pop. Jinsoul ft rapper Jinsoul such a legend.

[@diana4759]

U ain't ready for Egoist by the one and only 1 day trainee

[@andyshere]

She HAS to see the live version

[@diana4759]

@@andyshere Ikr.. specially the you know what part..🤫

[@zynthio]

Eclipse is the greatest kpop song and music video of all time. It hits SO HARD. From the music, to the VOCALS, to the choreo, how the different scenes cut together so smoothly, to the fashion, to the COLOR. Kim Lip and this MV are the reason I got into Loona. She's so alluring and eye catching, and she's such a natural performer. Jinsoul is incredible too, and Singing in the Rain is my 2nd fav solo - the music, the chorus, the choreo, and the visuals are crazy

[@hyprfany]

i love lippie ;--; my fav solo song too, its so beautiful, my most played song on spotify in 2020

[@moon_orbit]

Thanks for another reaction, red and blue was a nice contrast and is cool how both are a bit more mature concepts in comparison to the previous solos. I'm personally looking forward for your reaction to Yves - New. I love that song

[@raeyoshi5670]

"I think Jinsoul is one of the idols that actually owns platinum blonde hair" THAT'S SO TRUE but there's actually a sad story behind that.. Jinsoul was blonde for YEARS because she was so afraid that she won't stand out in the group (and also because she was forced) so it had bad effects on her hair health :(((

[@jonecito]

The way you came throught with these reactions today, we live

[@RetroLuv_]

The editing in this MV makes me eyegasm I just hope more people can appreciate what an editing masterpiece this video is.

[@coagulatedsalts4711]

the reason why the loona girls are so powerful is because the first 8 we’re actually selected through an internal competition (like the produce shows and idol school) and out of 50, Heejin, Hyunjin, Haseul, Yeojin, ViVi, Kim Lip, Jinsoul, and Choerry, we’re chosen. seriously powerful women. the next subunit after this is even MORE powerful because they impressed the company so much they had debuted almost instantly. the average training time was about a month, and the last girl, olivia hye, learned the egoist choreo on her one and only day as a trainee in bbc and impressed the staff so much she was chosen for debut the next day. admittedly she did spend a few years at a dance academy but she had no vocal training prior to that and her vocals are pretty strong. also fun fact, choi yena of iz*one is theorized to be one of the girls who were competing for a spot in loona.

[@russelbutt]

As for editing, and cinematography, and MV concept, you'll notice at the end of quite literally all their MV's the logo for DIGIPEDI. DIGIPEDI is the production studio that has been working with the group since conception, to pre-debut, to OT12 debut. It's how all their MV's have a cohesive feel, and through line in the story that's being told with all of them. IMHO it's one of the most ambitious things for a company to do, to stick with the same production studio for their group's entire project, and have that studio put out such beautiful MV's time and time again is nothing short is amazing.

[@RainyDayBX]

Finally you got to the OEC girls! I was expecting your reaction to Kim lips eclipse because it's so iconic. You can watch eclipse choreography by searching up her live performance of it so it's not in red. Same with the other girls, there are videos of them performing their solo live. Can't wait to see your next loona video ;)

[@Sol-sc6xg]

Can’t wait for your reaction to sweet crazy love by loona odd eye circle!!

[@simonpark342]

Thank you so much. Ms. Lippie is the reason I became an Orbit

[@odd1545]

Me too. Kimberly Lippington killed her solo!

[@YumoKPOP]

These 2 Songs are just so different and hoid up so well. Its been roughly a year now for me and these songs still slap!

[@zzzzzzc]

UMM MA'AM I CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH YOUR REACTION TO SWEET CRAZY LOVE AND OEC UNITS😳

[@odd1545]

If you pay attention to the Loona logo intro, there's a reason why the logo moon is in a moon phase and a color or colors flash. Also the direction of the reflection of the sun as well. Eclipse was red and SITR was blue. Loona is one of my favorite groups in all of music. I'm glad you're hearing it. Love Cherry Motion....

[@sophiabolos]

after chuu brought me to loona, kim lip is the member who stood out to me the most. she did so well with eclipse as if she had years of experience performing.

[@douglasmark2742]

OMG FINALLY! this two mvs are perfect, the choreography and the simplicity of Eclipse just hits different. Now it’s about love cherry motion haha, can’t wait

[@jeffreystone22]

Eclipse will always be my favorite solo from Loona. So HOT and her vocals.

[@bu5175]

Now can't wait for the Choerry's reaction 😂✨✨✨✨

[@johnmarkdelapaz2998]

Omg! At last been waiting for this reaction video about Kim Lip and JinSoul. Please do a reaction video for Yves' (Loona Member) New mv. Btw new fan here, really enjoyed how authentic and realistic the evaluation and reaction towards each music video specially the dance practice videos. Keep up the good work!

[@johanmoon]

I LOOOOVED watching your reaction to these videos so much, it really brought me back and reminded me what literal works of art LOONA's pre-debut solo's really are. Hope to see you check out more LOONA, lots of love 🌙💙

back here again because I remember your comment on Kim Lip and BoA, and it's making me really looking forward to Kim Lip's future. And the fact that BoA has been in the industry for 21 years, and we have yet to see a "BoA junior", and I can really see this Kim Lip - BoA comparisons ughh

[@Dinomater_]

Ahhh I'm so excited for this!! I don't know how much you care for this, but from here on out loona's lore really picks up. So everything that stands out visually is definitely something to keep in mind, if this is something that interests you :) It's a good thing that you seem very observant. Look forward to seeing your reactions!

[@russelbutt]

YES! YES! We've been waiting for this moment!

[@brandonjuno]

_Eclipse_ is the best debut single in Kpop history. No cap. Most of it is down to the song itself -- Obi and Charli absolutely snapped. But you can't discount Kim's vocal delivery. I remember when this came out I was immediately disappointed she was going to be integrated into a group, lol. This song is like honey -- absolutely timeless, never expires.

[@flowerbit4137]

Yay! We’re like halfway through the solos+subunit journey now. So fun

[@itiscloud]

*love choerry motion + odd eye circle reveal NEXT*

[@HawkKing2000]

Hi. First off, if you want to watch the choreo version of Eclipse in black and white, just let me know and I'll be happy to upload it :)... Also, I don't know if anyone else mentioned this, but Jinsoul is represented by a blue betta fish, which is also known as a "fighting fish". You can't put it in a tank with other fish in in it's size range or it will devour them. Jinsoul even joked that since she is a "fighting fish", she will devour the other members :)... Anyway, let me know about the B/W Eclipse choreo...

[@presumptuousweebaby6649]

I HAD THIS EVIDENCE!!! I knew somethings up with Jinsoul in the loonaverse but unfortunately, I'm having second thoughts since Butterfly. I mean what if she's just too lonely and is having a butterfly moment of breaking the boundaries that entrapped her for eternal solitude because of her character in the loonaverse which probably is what a Blue Better Fish symbolizes, strong, independent, beautiful, etc and is what kept her away from others... I mean who knows its too hard to make theories 🤣

[@HowlEmpress]

Each loona member has a personal color, and they are represented by them. Thats why the palet is monochromatic and always highlight a specific color. You can see Choery purple colored MV

[@alfredodelgado705]

Eclipse baptism, i had to be here

[@elfhchan]

Fun Fact: In Jinsoul's video, the part where she is seen in the dark and then instantly you can see her in the parking lot has to do with her Space Travel abilities inside the LoonaVerse. It looks like she jumps from one location to the other, especially when the video is glitching. That's why she is also running so much in her solo video. Kim Lip and Jinsoul have two of the most visually pleasing mvs for me personally, out of all the Loona girls.
