It's a nice contrast. Shows that the intensity of their relationship is as natural as small tasks and activities around the house. Further...each place she is wandering to is a place where she and her lover are being intimate. Meaning, they start making love on the couch, head to the kitchen, the dining room, then end up in the bedroom.

@@catsandaestheticroses4817 ahaha yes. You also notice that she “prepares” the cereal in the kitchen and only drinks coffee in the kitchen. Like she’s getting her energy up. She only starts “eating” (wink wink) on the table. Then when they make it to the bed, it’s now Moonbyul singing the chorus and not Seori. It’s an indication of a switch of “position” or “dominance”. Basically whoever was receiving before was now the one giving.

[@6012reasol]

this song and video feel so genuine. idk how else to describe it, it’s really outstanding in the terms of sapphic representation. it’s not intensely passionate but at the same time its not all pure and innocent, the two stereotypes that so many examples of sapphic representation seem to be confined too. it feels like the definition of ‘the female gaze’, if it really exists

Yes, genuine & pure but not in an innocent asexual way, it has a great balance & "hits the right note."

As a closeted Asian gay myself, this song has brought me some sense of validation cause LGBTQ+ representation in our media is very rare. I FELT SEEN. Her lyrics are that of a poet. I love how she perfectly captured how delicate and passionate love-making between two women can be without the usual aggressive fetishization we're normally offered.

Underrated! Kpop fans really need to start appreciating actual queer songs instead of doing performative activism pretending their fave kpop artists are doing something they are not, Moonbyul is one of the few idols who has been explicit in her lyrics and she deserves more recognition for how brave that was!

[@insomnimaniac58]

[@Brittney336]

I feel like international fans like me who genuinely loved music and vocals appreciate people like Moonbyul, I'm not a real KPOP fan myself today than back then but there few Kpop songs/artists that I liked but none compare to something MMM would offer, something so unique and different than Kpop in my opinion.

[@SharpBloodyMoon]

Could you give some recommendations of other queer korean bands/artists?

[@moonbyul7454]

Let's get this to 1M and give Moonbyul the recognition she deserves. This is such a bold statement she's making. I think, as fans, we owe it to her to spread this song like a wildfire.

[@erzashido2709]

i just wanna talk about how beautiful the mv is. The scene starts w/ byul sitting on the sofa reading a book and using her phone then seori appeared beside her who is trying to get byul's attention but byul remained looking at her book/phone. This continue to the kitchen until to the table where byul ignored seori. From what I gather from the video-since byul said that they can't make the Shutdown muisc video based on the lyrics bc it might be too r rated (i think she said this in an interview)-its like in the mv seori is trying to "seduce" byul to doing "it" but byul is being, lets say "playing hard to get" so moonbyul keep ignoring the 'temptation' which is seori. This where the cereal table scene comes in, the song was already in the bridge part and building up to the chorus or "climax" both byul and seori stood and went to the bedroom "byul is finally giving in" and both of them sitting and looking at each other at the same time is like nearing the "climax" of it. Also mind the lights outside the window and the lyrics "on my lap till morning" means they've been doing it until morning. I cant fully explain but this was my interpretation from the mv. And Moonbyul is showing us again why she is a great artist.

Ok but the way Moonbyul wrote the lyrics... Dali, Van, Picasso are artists who are known for painting nude women. Mountain means the chest Bridge means the legs (다리 can be bridge and legs in korean) there are other metaphors like making love until morning and the way the lyrics change from on YOUR lap (seori) to on MY lap (mb). Moonbyul really did an amazing job writing this song and also seori adding to the perfection.

Happy for you. Check out her album 6equence it's a masterpiece. It's about two women falling in and out of love. It's happy, sad, and everything in between.

[@rosa_verlice]

Moonbyul’s voice is so calming when singing it gives totally different vibes when she’s rapping! She’s the main rapper but can easily become the main vocalist! She’s a multitalented handsome Queen And Seori’s voice is so beautiful and smoothing! This is the best collab ever!

[@ReminisceAboutAll]

oh my god byul's deep rap in the middle and seori's sweet vocals right after ㅠㅠㅠㅠ they match so well

[@minaryeon9259]

Seori expressions is everythinng she is on point

2 years of loving this song and i still can't get over (presumably) Vincent van Gogh being referred to as "Van". That's like referring to Jeanne d'Arc as "d'" lmao.

[@rainbowrapier872]

Not only is moonbyul KILLING IT with this song. She also introduced me to Seori's awesome music. This collab in love with it, their chemistry iconic, this album INCREDIBLE

[@alyx_4635]

This needs more views, it's literally beautiful. The lyrics are about two women intimately loving each other. The song has no tint of sexualization of wlw unlike other songs, it's pure love. TT

as an asian queer individual myself, this mv brought me tears. Its quite rare to see our representation in asian media, and it made me more than happy to know my fav got our back, that she sees us (and possibly is a part of the community)

[@teacupterrier783]

I lose track of how many times a year I pop in here two watch this MASTERPIECE on repeat. You should be so so SO PROUD of yourself Moon Byulyi. You are an extraordinary talent and we are all thankful and inspired by your boldness in being yourself. Smart, talented, fashionable, bold, sweet, and HOT.

[@ripplesinthesand]

I really don't know how she's gonna top this masterpiece, like what can she possibly even do with the title track like she did everything here, her singing voice, rapping voice, lyrics, melodies, etc. EVERYTHING is immaculate

[@nightgirlmoon]

I CANNOT BELIEVE how Byul's voice blends with Seori's

[@breyermcjoey]

What I love the most is their positive portrayal of lesbian relationships 😊 so many songs/series/films make it such a negative experience so it's nice to just see a depiction of two people loving each other. We need more songs like this in K-Pop

[@zardy36]

I guess there is still a long way to go fighting for women and lgbtq+ rights in SK..(if I’m wrong, please tell me.) Therefore, finding an idol who is so brave, supportive, and dare to represent a lgbtq+ role on mainstream really surprised me. Moonbyul’s a talented singer, rapper and songwriter, surely deserves more attention. Seori’s excellent, too. These confident, open-minded, and talented girls are really fantastic.

[@robyn-leetobias3392]

I'm so damn proud of Byul and so excited for the release of this album. She's put her everything into this, even promoting it as much as she can which shouldn't even be her job... Let's do our best to support her and make this comeback a success!!! Also, the fact that they're singing to each other, like it's clearly a sapphic MV like there's no way around that... I'm just... Wow. Lemme just go look up the lyrics and freak out over that too, lmao.

[@L0VEST4Y]

So I agree that the lyrics are a bit risqué, but I think that’s what makes SHUTDOWN a statement song. In pop culture, be it western or Korean, LGBT romance is rarely represented. but with this song, and G999 which has the lyrical meaning of being different and from another planet, yet refusing to be called an alien, we see Moonbyul doing what many artists shy away from doing - to represent and normalize homosexuality in her music. This is further amplified by the use of the specific pronouns “SHE SAID” in shutdown. While G999 was an “awakening” song or the first introduction, SHUTDOWN depicts a honey moon phase, and takes a more adult turn with both the lyrics and message. Moonbyul has previously said she doesn’t like using specific pronouns in her songs because she wants to create relatable music. However, the fact that she DOES use pronouns in SHUTDOWN, and actually uses them to represent a lesbian relationship, is SO POWERFUL. There is clear sapphic poetry in those lyrics. You can clearly read them like a poem. And like you said, the accompanying video could have been equally sexual, however Moonbyul uses a normal and warm setting of a home. This NORMALIZES homosexual relationships, sending the message that same sex couples and “sex” in general need to be normalized in the conservative cultures of developing countries. Especially considering how gay marriages are still not legal in South Korea. NEVERTHELESS, I highly think that we shouldn’t use this song and it’s message to ask Moonbyul intrusive questions about her own sexuality or ASSUME anything. She can be whoever she wants and she doesn’t need to tell us. And we certainly shouldn’t assume that just because she wrote this song, it automatically makes her a lesbian herself. Like heterosexuality shouldn’t be forced on an idol, I think homosexuality should also not be assumed. However what we CAN take as a message is simply that Byul cares. She CARES enough to make a song and represent a minority group. She CARES enough to make the stand despite any consequences. She simply CARES. I think this song needs to be hyped about even more. It’s one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard, and that’s saying something ❤️✨

[@sakutachi]

The way the difference of the colors of their voices clashes. I've never feel relaxed with both the MV and the song. Seori has soothing and soft vocals with Byul's deeper. Cozy

[@crispypasta]

in all seriousness tho, the song is so good. and gotta hand it to moonbyul, seori is such a perfect pick for this song! she really completed the feeling and emotion of the song, it's amazing! :') the fruitiness is truly just an added bonus to an already great song!

[@potatodacute9616]

This song is honestly perfect- it suits my taste of music, speaks about lgbtq relationships and uses such a poetic and artistic way to talk about Sapphic sex. Moonbyul and Seori, thank you so much for this amazing song and your amazing albums.

Moonbyul's vocals here is so good. She keeps pushing her boundaries as a singer and I respect her for that.

I didn't expect their voices to blend so well together. They compliment each other well, it's a really good mix for the ear. But the problem here is that this one Moonbyul X Seori collab isn't enough for me to keep my endless greed of this kinda excellence in check..

[@sreejaroy684]

If y'all don't know Shutdown is an erotic song about two women who are in love! (Byul has confirmed that the song is erotic) I think Moonbyul has done a great job writing this song! The lyrics talk about the intimate moments shared between two women in love. The lyrics are erotic but not vulgar. Usually, in pop culture same sex relationships are sexualised. It makes LGBTQ+ people uncomfortable. But, Byul has painted such a beautiful intimate picture using her great song writing skills! Also, this song is pretty progressive because South Korea is a very conservative country. Same-sex couples face a lot of problems there. Too many of them can't even express their sexuality due to backlash. So, kudos to our Moonstar for representing LGBTQ+ people ( here lesbian couple) Also, Seori's vocals are beautiful as well! Her warm voice evokes such a fuzzy feeling inside! Seori too is a huge ally to LGBTQ + community! Do check out her discography as well!

[@skyhideaway]

I really hope this song blows up! It's rare to see LGBT themed songs that are not tragic. I'm so glad Byul released something like this, a song about a happy and healthy relationship between two women, despite Korea's heteronormative views.

[@teacupterrier783]

As others have said this song is Poetry. And that’s what makes it so special and sets it apart from the gimmicky stuff. This song feels so genuine and intimate bc it comes from a genuine place and isn’t a record company or artist trying to get streams via shock factor or sexualized scenes. This song and video is Tell > Show and through that it communicates intense feelings that inadvertently create a mental image of your own.

[@jamesrawlins735]

As great a rapper as she is (no other rapper sounds as Byul), I think deep in her heart Byul still sees herself as a singer. Reminds me of Amber (F(x)) who I think never really want to be a rapper - you can tell because she does no rapping on any of her recent songs.

How I love Seori's voice so much and combined with Moonbyul's coolness. The lyrics is so wlw webtoon coded ❤
