Stray Kids "거미줄" Video | REACTION + LYRICS SEMI-EXPLAINED!

[@33Jenesis]

Hyunjin’s softer laid back rap is more seductive than the hard hitting delivery. His Muddy Water rap was done in similar vibe. I hope SKZ would keep hyunjin in this type of rapping to contrast Changbin, Han, and Felix more punchy delivery.

[@itsandyandjas]

Agree!! So sexy and he delivers! Definitely draws you in 😍

[@andreutama5956]

Agree. Because food tastes better if it has many textures :)

[@pratikshamajee3262]

ikr!!

[@green-pn2un]

Hyunjin voice is PLAYFUL,, angelic, emotional, and seductive I love it, I really really love his different style.

[@akemi-ej5545]

My idea is that Venom is about the music industry. It's an incredibly toxic environment, but no matter what SKZ can't/won't leave because its the place they want to achieve in and even though there is a way out if they wanted, they won't go because they're addicted to their work and lifestyle, even if it may harm them.

[@isashaniofthexacatecas1997]

Based on lyrics, I interpreted this as 'craving for adrenaline rush' since they say 'I want it more, spreading poison, addicting potion, urgency, circulate faster' Maybe the 'spider' represents risky stuff, so when they encounter it, adrenaline starts spreading and they love it. They keep trying to get into such situations willingly for ex. Han is getting himself shot at, IN and Chan with the bow, Hyunjin and Lee Know boxing with spiked gloves, Changbin in the magician box I can't make theories of the MV though. The bow scene of IN and Chan is direct reference to "Rest Energy" by Marina Abramovic and Ulay.

[@itsandyandjas]

Wow Makes sense!!

[@jisungsguitar]

this really does make sense. because especially with this album they tried a lot of different things with it. and like noeasy they tried new sounds. they are risking these sounds and structures. maybe?? lol anyways i like your look on it

[@lunalovegood6357]

I think hyunjin's harley lyric best explains the song, harley was a normal girl until she fell inlove with joker and joker turned her into harley quinn. Venom is the start of the oddinary album so i think this is how explains how they embraced their maniac side.

[@jexminnn4239]

Wow that makes sense, skz is so cool >.

[@ash105]

Stray kids music genre is really out of kpop main stream they are so unique and different !

[@elenymm]

The video is so awesome. It plays on the lyrics so well. + Seungmin said that the noona dressing him looked very happy when she gave him the outfit and I would just like to take this opportunity to thank her. She made us happy too. Haha

[@itsandyandjas]

Hahaha yes sending thanks to the stylist!! Fire outfit 😍

[@teencrafter601]

One thing that I've kinda noticed after watching the mv so many times is that it almost seems like some of them have their own sort of "venom." Like, when they're all locked up, Changbin is the only one able to escape for some reason. Felix is the one controlling the giant spider that's chasing them all. Lee Know is standing over the rest who are unconscious after eating the food. Just something that stood out to me that I don't fully understand but find really interesting.

[@itsandyandjas]

Yeaa this one’s kinda hard to figure out but the theories you guys have been giving us makes sense and is helping us haha. Love Stray Kids’ creativity! They be working our brains but we love it 😍

[@teencrafter601]

I also find the first section particularly interesting simply because it's Changbin who is able to get out when it looks like Chan was the one trying to pic the lock on his handcuffs.

[@_b-ly_flippindipity]

Hyunjin's line "you got me like harley" - i think it also refers to Harley's emotion/feelings...she was like practically obsessed with Joker, she was so in love with him, she was wrapped around his finger, their relationship was like toxic/abusive/codependent...in the end leaves Joker. Hyunjin really delivered, they way he sang his line really lured you in 😍

[@Kimimi-v7u]

I think it's more deeper than that, the spider represents anxiety and depression. They are trapped and can't get away from it. Now this is where it turns more toxic. Felix is controlling the spider, which means he has control of his feelings. I.n also said that "feeling threatened has disappeared now" being consumed by darkness and their negative thoughts, that somehow they're used to it. Han pointing the gun on his head, Chan letting I.n hold the arrow pointed right through his heart and Chan and changbin also doing the sword box illusion. They are numb, as if it's like "If I die, so what?" Basically: if they're trapped, oh well, what's the point of escaping when they purposely wanted to be trapped in the first place just like changbin said at the beginning. Felix eats the spider and it goes to his heart. The "venom" (anxiety/depression) spreads which means NO ONE can help them but themselves. And at the end, they chose not helping themselves at all, getting stuck by their mind and having no thoughts of escaping. Which then felix closes the door.

[@veriana7630]

The evidence of Stray Kids being a self-produced group is not only apparent in their music and choreographies and performances, but also in the growth of the members. 3Racha not solely produces for the group, but also helps the others write songs and 'cook up' their potential talents! Like Hyunjin's rap--we all know Changbin had a role in his rap training from the pre-debut era, and along with extremely diverse and creative songs, Hyunjin develops his skill even more. Seungmin said it himself, he practice a lot in order to embrace their songs. For Lee Know, well, you know, we know, how he likes the challenge Han gave in his high note songs like Secret Secret. Chan also let him be their dance leader. IN as well, Chan said that he saw him as a 'blank canvas' and wanted to help him 'paint' his voice with 'colors'. For Felix case, even with his voice which is one of THE most distinctive ones in kpop (or maybe the global music) world, IMO, wouldn't be this 'grown up' if he isn't in Stray Kids. Why? That's how genius 3Racha is. Bet no groups/producers know his character and know how to utilize/position it in song's parts better than 3Racha!

[@OrangeBlossom130]

I think you missed the scene that Lee know is actually the one who poison them all with the fruits. BTW, I've been waiting for your reaction so bad. Love to hear more explanation on other songs from this album too.

[@itsandyandjas]

Yea we totally missed that! Wonder why he did??😮 Aww thank you~~ glad we can watch together! ❤️

[@aliciagee369]

I think the video is about the members all being the “venom“. In the beginning Changbin says that he got himself locked up on purpose and that’s why he was the only one to get out and was messing with Felix and the members. Felix controls the spider that is chasing the members. Lee Know puts poison in the food and takes out all the members. Chan puts Changbin in a box and does that magic trick where you put swords in but it misses the person in the box. Lee Know and Hyunjin box with weapons while being trapped in the net. I.N. was holding a arrow to Chan’s heart and played Felix like a pawn in chess. Seungmin threw a grenade at Han and Han batted it away like he got rid of the bullets. I really enjoy your reactions and breakdowns of the lyrics. Keep it up 💚

[@itsandyandjas]

Thank you for all the insight! Helped us a lot 😘

[@aliciagee369]

@@itsandyandjas no problem glad I could help

[@Mayy0325]

You were talking about the chessboard and how it relates to the song. What i noticed is that after I.N makes his move and knocks out the Knight, he is basically in checkmate. Felix's King cannot move because it will be taken out either by the Bishop, the castle or the pawn. So essentially felix's King is 'trapped'. This also happens just as the lyrics go "trapped in your overpowering charisma, i am your prey". Theyre so fricking smart!!

[@8redlove]

I also love Hyunjin’s tone in this album, and I also love how I.N’s and Lee Know’s voices shine through. They all have their own distinct color & I love when they shine it😍

[@ash105]

Finally the reaction we all have been waiting for

[@itsandyandjas]

🥲🙏❤️

[@candydlight8981]

So true! Hyunjin really gives us everything in album! It's unbelievable but he really gave us a soft vocals in bridge after a deep voice in chorus. He also sings vocals again in Freeze bridge.. his different styles rap even in a one song like venom like charmer.. his killing part in Freeze.. it's insane!!

[@beberoo]

I had another theory. But now I think it’s this: Felix & I.N are the game masters, or at least they have an unfair advantage to win. It’s a game of members trying to off each other. The supper scene reminds me of the story of Circe.

[@nicamaelast123]

If you have watched Oddinary intro, Chan mentioned that he tried and push Charmer to be the title track before Maniac has made. So no wonder why Charmer are almost good to be a bside track

[@PhelisaCeza]

I really want the Skzverse movie cause I’m frustrated in a good way trying to connect the stories

[@Niki_untold]

Jas I backed up on Hyunjin’s part so many times too🤣 pew pew! Love you both so much! Thank you always for the amazing reactions and the fun time💗

[@kpopauntie]

You asked about theory, so here goes, at least about the dinning scene. SKZ seems to have a theme in their storyline that there is a version of themselves that "buys into" the system, that takes the easy road, that does what society expects of them. That goes all the way back to District 9. The dinning scene gives me "drinking the Cool-Aid" vibes... willfully ingesting what society is feeding them and not even wanting out of the trap. It's pretty relatable. We all get caught up in the rat race and "keeping up with the Jones's". It's a trap of sorts, but we all have our reasons for not exiting.

[@nyujinheo4139]

Notice how in that one picture of lonely st there are just 7 members while Seungmin is missing, and in that mv of lonely st they‘re running through that field but again they are 7 and Felix is missing BUT in 가 미 졸 at the end of the mv only Felix and Seungmin found the exit and they decided to stay maybe because they know how to deal with that pain???? I feel like those easter eggs are right in front of us but we still don‘t get them

[@Criz.i]

I was about to go to sleep, about to. But Andy&Jas reactions to stray kids is a must. I can’t skip it if I already saw the notification, I have to watch it.

[@Criz.i]

@@itsandyandjas thanks, take care guys!!!

[@heavy77x]

I am obssesed with Hyunjin part 🛐

[@seanpancho8223]

What came into my mind when I saw the scene of Felix and IN playing that glass chess was the scene of Magneto and Xavier in X:Men.

[@littlelonelysoul2683]

I can’t come with theories but I just love the fact that most of the time their songs is I am you, you are me, we are one things like that. But here, they just keep betraying each other. Like Changbin being able to free himself but don’t free the others, Felix controlling the spider, Lee Know poisoning them with the food, I.N with the arrow against Chan or Hyunjin trying to shoot Han

[@likhamemin6371]

I dont blame yall for giving into the temptation of listening to ODDINARY, no one could have with held that long.. but I will assume we still have 2 MVs coming(Freeze and Lonely St) for the other unveiled tracks. And these videos are becoming more and more like movies!! And maybe we can get a ITZY ⚡Voltage⚡ reaction since no album listening party! Coz we all now ITZY don't miss just like SKZ

This is my #1 for Han's raps. Ive listened to just his part so many times. I love the little 'ahhh' at the end. Ugh, these guys are no joke. Ive been a stay for 6 months now, and its not slowing down at all. I still have so much music i have to listen to. You guys are by far my favorite reaction people to watch. I love how much you get into the video and how you break down the lyrics. I actually started taking Korean lessons 3 months ago and im slowly picking it up. But you make it so much easier! Thank you!

[@regee9179]

Lee Know is also sus like in Lonely St. What about maniac, like most MV's have Lee Know standing out from the rest of Straykids

[@StarlightStomper]

I'd just like to say that as someone who knows absolutely no Korean but desperately wanted to sing along with the song, you explaining the lyrics and highlighting the accents is helping me achieve my goals of car karaoke with this song.

[@greenwood_art]

I think it's interesting that Felix is the one controlling the spider, because someone pointed out that the choreo for maniac at the beginning it looks like Felix is standing over Lee know like Dr Frankenstein waking up his monster? Idk lol

[@Bludreamgirl]

I love the knowledge I get from your channel lol, I had no idea about farmers using spiders. If you notice Lee know is the center of the table in the "last supper" scene. I feel like he is the one who supplied the spider filled food (he is taking care of the pests? lol) and the others are suspicious, if you look they are all inspecting the food and drink but they drink and eat anyways and then Lee know is lit up in the center alone with the others "dead"..... Lee know is the key here. ♡

[@blackpinkinyourarea8548]

I always love your explanation! Really makes the experience more in dept. This Venom is the most virtually aesthetic and unique beat! Marvel should collab with skz fr.

[@JoyL232j]

The fact that bang Chan made charmer to be a title track 😩😩

[@kami3206]

I don't know if you guys noticed this but when there is Hyunjin's part "공포심보다는 위험한 게임에 올라탄 기분 모두 silence" you can hear Venom's voice saying the "silence" part with Hyunjin

[@its_k_goddamnit]

The way I understand it, the song and MV talk about a toxic relationship or a toxic mindset. The mirror and red strings are callbacks to Red Lights because that song is about toxicity and obsession, too. The members all try to kill each other perhaps to dramatize the danger of being in said relationship. Changbin escapes the bomb vault but doesn't help the others, Felix controls the spider that chases the others, Hyunjin tries to shoot Han, Seungmin tries to blow up Han, Lee Know poisons everyone at the dinner table, IN has an arrow against Chan's heart, Chan stabs Changbin through the box, Lee Know and Hyunjin are in a spiky boxing match. It's a dangerous yet addictive situation. Kinda like most toxic relationships. At least, that's what I'm getting.

[@LalAla-sb1pp]

to me this songs talks about STAY that addicted to stray kids, stray kids is the spider (spider has 8 legs, and stray kids is 8 lol) that trap stay and in the end stay dont want to get out
