This Was Unexpected! First Time Reaction to LOONA Paint The Town!

[@BABYMONSTER_RORA_RAMI_AHYEON]

@Watching Sundays First of all , Thanks for your reaction. These girls are talented. "PTT (Paint The Town)" was LOONA's 4th Korean comeback and it served as a title track of their 4th mini album "[&]". They got their 2nd win with this comeback. Also, they got their first win with their second comeback "So What". At 1:57 *Haseul*, the leader of LOONA as a complete group, arrived in this music video after taking her long 2nd hiatus due to anxiety issue. And that's why she has been missing out in "So What", "Why Not?" & "Star" MVs. The song is inspired by Bollywood/Indian . Ryan S. Jhun , Hanif Hitmanic Sabzevari, Dennis Deko Kordnejad are credited for lyrics, composition & arrangment of the song . Youha also contributed to lyrics and composition of the song. The music video was directed/produced by DIGIPEDI , a video production company based in Seoul, South Korea. Almost all of the LOONA music videos were directed/produced by DIGIPEDI so far. They also directed and produced music video for other groups/artists. Also, *It’s taken from the description of their official "PTT (Paint The Town)" [MV]* : *LOONA [&]* *LOONA became one after going through the round of faith, coincidence, and destiny.* *LOONA has shown the effect of plus plus so far, gaining courage with the butterfly effect and finding their inner self. What’s more, is that LOONA created a bigger wave of change with their passion to make a world where not even a single girl is oppressed.* *[&] album is about why LOONA had no choice but to break the fixed rules and become one with all LOOΠΔs around the world, after making bigger waves of change.* *LOONA holds a variety of symbolic objects that symbolize their dignity. Among those, the symbolic color has a significant connection with the message that LOONA wishes to convey through this album.* *“And all LOOΠΔs are one”, all LOONAs in the world paint the world with their own colors and conveys the message that they will shout out “Paint The Town” in one voice after they found their own colors.* *Finally conquering the LOONAverse with their own strengths, LOONA then discovers a bigger world that they have never known about.* *The intro ‘&’ holds a story about you, me, and us together (&) becoming one after breaking the fixed, conventional symbols.* *The title track 'PTT (Paint The Town)' is a hip-hop dance genre with the most intense and explosive energy of LOONA that they have released so far.* *‘PTT (Paint The Town)' combines all the essential elements from chart-topping Bollywood songs, with a massive Indian drums and tablas combined with aggressive dubstep and 808 bass sounds, a hypnotic Indian flute playing the signature melody of the song and a massive chorus. The minimalist verses and building prechorus parts all lead to haunting chorus parts with a melody line you will never get out of your head.* *This title track aims to establish and redefine themselves after breaking the rules without being trapped in taboos or being wary of others to "Paint The Town" in LOONA’s colors.* *Source* : m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXaooGCfepqolaM&start_radio=1

Wow!! This is inspiring stuff!! Amazing story around their concept!! Also totally feeling the Dubstep and Bollywood influence!!! Now the challenge is, remembering all 12 members! 🙃

[@BABYMONSTER_RORA_RAMI_AHYEON]

LOONA is unpredictable when it comes to musical genre but their theme is consistent

[@novrendy]

The photo you pull up of the members lining up from left to right is actually the official debut order of LOONA and is the most accurate way to list the LOONA members. 1. Heejin 2. Hyunjin 3. Haseul 4. Yeojin 5. Vivi 6. Kim Lip 7. Jinsoul 8. Choerry 9. Yves 10. Chuu 11. Gowon 12. Olivia Hye

[@WatchingSundays]

Thank you!!! Trying to remember everything now lol!🤣

[@keithcraig506]

Some quick information about Loona. I'll try to keep it short. 1) Each member of Loona debuted individually, each with their own solo song, MV and mini album. Note: In the picture you showed us, they are lined up in order of debut, left to right. (took me a minute to realized that...) 2) As the debut process progressed 3 sub-units were formed, each with their own concept, back story and sound. They are Loona 1/3, Odd Eye Circle and yyxy (aka Youth, Youth by Young). 3) The debut process, which culminated with their dance performance video for their first full group song Favorite, took about 18 months to complete and cost several million dollars. It's considered to be the most ambitious debut in kpop history. 4) By now you've probably heard that there is a massive amount of lore surrounding Loona. Whoever told you that is not lying. Alternate dimensions, parallel worlds, quantum physics, maybe even a little time travel, etc etc etc... The whole thing makes the Nightmare Series look like a bed time story. (no hate. LOVE DC. Just sayin...) After you get a few more videos under your belt I suggest you watch the 'Loona, The Avengers of Kpop' video by The Asian Theory KZbin channel. Trying to explain it here would take far too much time and far, FAR too much typing. We're talking volumes... Watching that video will streamline the process immensely. Here endeth the lesson... Side note: Strangely enough, these seems to be a lot of overlap between the Loona fandom, called Orbits, and Insomnias. Anyway, love the reaction, as always. Keep up the good work.

[@WatchingSundays]

Thank you!!!

[@loonaticluke1197]

thanks guys!! I've been keeping up ur dreamcatcher series from the beginning. LOONA is my ult group that I loved followed by dreamcatcher and everglow. I'm pretty sure u already like dreamcatcher choreo for every songs and I'm so sure u will for LOONA too as they are synchronise queens anyway. LOONA make genreless songs for their title tracks and each of them would say unique on its own because nobody do like their music style. Amyway stan LOONA

[@WatchingSundays]

Thanks for being with us from the start!! We are new to Loona so bear with us i!!! 🙏🙏

[@iBotmiltonbyapple]

HELLO! to know more about loona, pls react to a video called "avengers of kpop: a story of loona" and "the inconstant moon"

[@MayDawney]

I am a casual stan of Loona. Like, I could pick maybe three members out of a line-up and name four songs. But this song is fabulous and it made me buy the album instantly. Amazing album too! They have an insane world lore that I have not gotten into, but that's where all those style influences come from, for the most part. They are worth investing time in! ❤️

[@BABYMONSTER_RORA_RAMI_AHYEON]

Blue skirt girl on the padestal/alter is actually JinSoul. You will see it, If you watch till the end

[@BABYMONSTER_RORA_RAMI_AHYEON]

@Watching Sundays LOONA's pre-debut music video "FavOriTe" which was released in 2018. Or LOONA's first revealed member HeeJin and her first pre-debut solo music video "ViViD" which was released in 2016 Which one are you gonna choose? It’s up to you

Oh, the other girl who did Weekly Idol with Siyeon is the adorable Kei, from Lovelyz 😊 Edited to add that she is friends with SuA and SuA called her in the tenth ep (drinking ep) of Dreamcatcher Mind, and flirted with her to high hell 🤣❤️

[@WatchingSundays]

Ahhh, so that’s who she called!! Nice!!!!
