I know a lot of people are praising New Jeans for their talent but I'd also like to thank the staff that were behind this music video.

I think haerin's delusion of thinking she's a cat comes from her appearance and how Kpop fans reacted to her looks. Ever since she was revealed to the public, she was always complimented for her extremely cat-like visuals and only that. Only receiving praise for looking like a cat probably explains her delusion of believing she is one in the MV. The Chinese fanbase is obsessed with her looks, saying how if a cat turned into a human they would look like haerin . We rarely address her by her name and only ever call her “猫猫” which is just a playful way to say cat in Chinese.

The creative team behind OMG and Ditto is just on the next level - just in awe and inspired by them

IMO: •Hanni's delusion is about serving us. She will sing for us, talk to us, which makes her tired so she is referring to an Iphone which infact, does the same tasks. •Minji's delusion was about being a doctor, when she was a patient herself. Usually the oldest are often referred as mature, caring and observant. Their viewers want them to take care of them no matter how sick they are themselves. •Hyein's delusion is about being a princess. As she is the youngest, people will often treat her like a princess and she is supposed to act like one. Just like Jordan said, she dreams about her fans at the point of loosing herself. (not sure, can u help?) •Haerin's delusion is about being a cat. People often call her Kittykang due to her mesmerising cat features. She then started to believe that she was a cat and acted like one to please her viewers. •Danielle's delusion is quite interesting. It is shown that she believes that she is a kpop idol and is in a group called 'NewJeans'. She believed that she was filming a music video. You can then see her smiling and laughing at a blank screen visualising what idols are supposed to do 24/7 on camera: smile, laugh, act cute, please the fans and serve even if there is nothing funny or fun about it.

always amazed by how you breakdown the entire music video

Haerin's nickname is kitty because she has cat-like featuers. The fans gave her that name and you can see in Ditto Ban HeeSoo calls the same cat "Kang Kitty" which is Kang Haerin's nickname. Basically the members become whatever image or stereotypes the fans have about them. Also: I took the Bear as a symbol of overprotective fans. At first he was the doctor trying to help and fix them. The Bear is from Revenant so if we take anything from that movie it's a lot about violence, betrayal, and revenge. I saw it as the bear trying to protect her, but in the process killing the prince and therefore killing the princess by making her lose the chance at love (relationships for idols) and thus being unable to wake up. Sometimes overprotective fans do more harm and hurt the people they stan.

In Japan and South Korea, some people criticized this mv because they think mental illness should not be used as a theme so easily. But I personally thought this mv shed light on some important issues and is trying to convey positive messages so I really love this :)

왜 곰인가, 테이블에 다양한 직업군의 사람들을 보여 주는 장면, 다니엘이 우리 뮤직 비디오 찍는 중이라거나 우린 뉴진스라고 하는 일깨워 주는 이유가 드디어 밝혀졌어요. 이 뮤직비디오로 지금 나라 전체가 뜨겁습니다. 영상 잘 봤습니다.

Newjeans girls are so creative and talented....... It's like they are presenting the concept of life, being an idol, being a fan, telling facts about toxic industry, giving the scenarios of youth etc Edit 1: guys I'm also crediting the creative and production team behind them. Because the girls write and compose some of the songs and I guess they have also a part in production. Edit 2: wow many likes "uri eomma eomma ga" I'm famous

Ironically Newjeans is getting tons of hateful comments for this MV. Self fulfilling prophecy at its finest. I loved the scene with the bear. When Danielle and Hyein were dealing with it alone the bear was incredibly dangerous but in front of everyone else it looked like a cute and lifeless teddy bear who couldn't harm anyone. This leads to people not noticing the impact of hurtful comments and actions from fans or antis towards the idols.

The whole production of new jeans is on another level. The creativity and storytelling of their videos are really nice. Thank you, Jordan for this amazing content. I love your explanation video to Ditto too. Maybe because Haerin is like a cat for having a chill personality. just maybe hehe

I love the juxtaposition between the topics of their lyrics (liking a boy, tell me you like me too etc.) and the topics of the videos which seem very serious. There was always room in kpop for groups challenging the status quo in one way or another. That's how the genre moves forward. It's how we got to idols writing their music becoming a standard when it was a rarity before. The dancing here is, in my opinion, gonna be the next step. First two gens of kpop had less emphasis on choreography and Shinee moved the goal post, third gen then went super hard with choreo, it carried over to the forth, but now we got the tiktok effect where the dances are supposed to be easily copied.

heres the theory ive heard: minji: the oldest/leader members are often seen as the parental figures that take care of the other members, take on the responsiblities and solve their problems, hence the doctor hanni: the iPhone (ipham) is exactly what you described danielle: honestly I'm not too sure what dani is, but I'm guessing its how its like they're always on camera, but you're also definitely spot on haerin: people often compare her features to a cat - aka the resprensative animals of idols (most commonly a dog, cat, bunny, or fox ) hyein: i would guess its half-part what you explained, but also because she's working to achieve a fairytale etc etc

New Jeans is literally one of the most legendary girl groups of 4th gen, probably one of the most legendary in Kpop history. Their editing skills, their acting skills, their vocals, dance, everything is amazing. They might even grow to being one of the most successful 4th gen group❤️❤️💗💗

they are really breaking the industry! Go NewJeans

Since you mentioned Ditto, I think it was also about fans who are too much into kpop and they make it their only source of happiness and unknowingly isolate themselves from the real world and the people in it like Heeso did. Once Heeso realized New Jeans members can not be physically there for her to solve her problems, she decided to not depend too much on them and drops the recorder from the roof and faces the reality and goes to the boy who can actuallly be there for her and when she becomes older she turns on the recorder and smiles thinking all the good times and how it should have been part of her life not her whole life. And in the OMG video i think the reason Danielle is saying "we are new jeans, don't you guys remember" is because with time other members have completely lost their identities while Danielle still remembers a little who they really are. PS: LOVE your story telling

Love this reaction! Love how you broke down the editing and how it connects to The narrative! I totally agree with your interpretation. But I think it is very much connected to Ditto. Ditto is how being a fan can be toxic to the fans...losing their connection to reality. So she lets go to concentrate on her current relationships but then reconnects when she gets older and might need that distraction once again. Then OMG is the side of the idols. What happens when the fans do disconnect or their lives are to enmeshed with what their fans want. If they are not the idols in their fans life then what are they? Here Hanni concludes she must be an iPhone. With Minji I see she thinks of her self as a mental health professional. I see this so much in BTS fandom where a lot of Army, myself included, say that BTS music helped then in some crisis. So idols might end up thinking that is their purpose! Then Hyein, she is the one that fulfills a lot of fans fantasy of being this princess in this fantasy. But at times the fantasy is false, the prince dies and she can be consumed by the fans rage disappointment that she disappears. Haerin is quite simple. In Ditto,Heeso likened her to a cat...so that’s what she became! This is so common in kpop. Like in BTS Yoongi is likened to a cat,JK to a rabbit! So finally Danielle is the only one holding on to the thin thread of who they are, but without their purpose of making music then she is losing herself too. Such an insightful and bold direction they are going with this group! Finally I love your comment about them not trying to be perfect in choreography etc. I see them as really authentic...just very natural teens that can be giggly, sweet and playful! Not perfect just starting to develop!

Story based MVs are truly the best type of MVs

For anyone who doesn't yet know, the character "Heesoo" has the full name "Ban Heesoo" which is a play on the word "Bunny". (Bunny is the name of NJ's fandom) So basically, Heesoo represents NJ's fans.

We need more people like Jordan, who actually appreciate the song and actually know what they're trying to say

it's sad to think that most people would miss this message and moves on with their lives without knowing the real issues they try to bring to the surface. it's a great story telling. props to the creative directors , whoever that came up with this concept for doing the work to send this to the audience, and also the audience that gets it (like jordan) and willing to share it to the people out here.

NewJeans and their creative team is crazy to come up with that concept. They're a young group, their career timeline could be considered rookie, but creating an homage to their own growth this early is absolutely a badass move

an important fact..In the MV of Ditto and OMG, We can feel the director's concern and love for Newjeans. Like the eyes of uncle and parents.

They really changed most people’s perspective for kpop. Stan Newjeans and their staff, they all deserve a raise for their hardwork and taking care of newjeans.

This hits different after allegation that this was minheejin, the producer of new jeans throwing shade at hybes Dan world cult involvement

The Best Storytelling MV. And a Wake up call to the Fandoms of Kpop Industry

This is honestly so in depth. Every time I watch a new jeans episode I need someone to literally break it down because it always goes over my head. The fact that you are able to help paint the picture so clearly (while also showing us how it is actually done) is so helpful

This music video means against cult group Dan-world

I love how Jordan doesn't react to it like "OMG they're so pretty" "OMG the beat is so fire" but he focuses on beat,story,And camera edit it's very impressive and cool

plenty of me jaw-dropping while watching your video. DAAAAMN! as non-bunnies, your breakdown of the entire mv is incredible and made me understand it better. It's mindblowing that you even mention why the MV looks so cinematic, the webtoon creator, even correlated all of that with current situations in kpop. Dude, you're sound like a lecturer that I can hear you giving lessons for hours! You did a great job as always

16:14 OMG literally, this explanation from Minji just blew my mind because all this makes sense knowing that Minji is the oldest member therefore the leader and has that "responsibility" to keep her members on a good path, wow.

danielle mention in their OMG M/V reaction, that's actually their director and the crew lol and also when hanni scene, that was actually her lips

i feel like newjeans is a group that we needed. their concept is SO GOOD AND WELL SEARCHED. i mean, we got a lot of kpop groups with incredible concepts... but I feel like “none” of them really manage to talk about the kpop industry as newjeans does i may be wrong but yeah- and sorry if i made some mistakes, english isn't my first language ! :)

Fun fact I saw somewhere is that Hyein recreates some scenes books and movies. You can see the index in 7:42. You can see that she recreated every story mentioned in the index if you pay attention. Probably the bear does mean what you told us (I’m not good with theories) but it is also a recreation of the bear scene in The revenant. The Revenant is in the index underneath Sleeping beauty, you can see it in the original mv. Another fun fact is that the cake in shape of bunny was a collaboration between newjeans and a popular cafe in Korea.

I just realized that Minji plays the doctor because she is the eldest in the group. Since they have no definite positions, fans automatically assumes her of the leadership role just because of her age. That's why at the ambulance scene, they were all looking at Minji as if depending on what to do next. I hope newjeans won't have defined positions because this concept of leader, main dancer, main vocal, etc. are honestly just contributing factors to a toxic fan environment. I noticed how once these roles are placed on an idol, the other members get completely overshadowed just because they aren't as good as the main vocal/dancer. They get compared by fans and whatnot. They do not need roles to perform, everyone is equally just as good and therefore they NJ has that cohesiveness in them. And for that I love what NJ is serving, a fresh, hot take on the industry as whole. I hope the label takes real good care of these girls bc they are a talented, entertaining bunch.

i love that you really took the feedback and started doing various researches about the mv's you analyze here, the deep dives are truly amazing, you're doing great.

Min-ji, who thinks she's a doctor also speaks to the narrative that kpop fans says of idols - that their music saved them or healed them - the same way a doctor irl heals people. Which also fits well because Min-Ji is also the leader of the group, so she takes on that responsibility to look after the other members.

massive props to the staffs behind the production they did splendidly good job. cannot comprehend how they came out these kind of refreshing, new approach to kpop. they set the standard too high, all the best for upcoming releases 😂

the case with Haerin is that people are calling her cat (because she has a cat like face) it was even mentioned in the Ditto MV. they call her Ms. Kitty Kang. maybe people are telling her that too much the she believe now that she is a cat. just theory. didn't notice the name ty for correction. I just typed and closed^^

Your analysis was just precious and yeah, this MV looks really like a film and I love NewJeans so much not only for their amazing music (there's no drop at all) but especially for their amazing artistic expressions on almost everything they do

Imagine if the whole world watches this channel digging up to Newjeans' music videos meaning. Like the whole world would crave for more contents from newjeans because of deep meaning behind every video.

The bunny cake was a collaboration with NUDAKE and you could actually purchase it in Korea around the time when the MV came out. It was sold out when I went to the store but it looked amazing - was very much jelly of the fanboys who managed to snag one and were sharing it at the store

Haerin's delusion of being a cat is probably supported by how fans appreciate her for her feline visuals

This song is so addictive amd the whole concept and storyline of the mv is just pure genius

Also, OMG is kinda like a sequel to Ditto cuz it shows the idols' side of kpop reality while Ditto shows the fans' side

Every K-pop M/V I watch I think it's just a normal mv but every time I watch this dude explain it I just get so entertained like I never knew this about this mv and I get so mesmerized by all these facts about Mv's like these and it's just so interesting to sit down and just watch this and know all these small but important details, and I get to learn all these tricks and hacks about transition and editing Once Again Thanks Jordan Orme

This MV shows how the audience perceives kpop idols through what they see or what the concept their company puts them through. Just like what Hanni says that she doesn't know who she is if it's really her or the people that says she is. She mentioned how like an iphone, she lives for someone or acts for someone. Members like Haerin in being a cat or Hyein being a princess. It seems like they feel like they're losing themselves portraying what you as the viewer wants, hence, them disappearing or Hyein looking at the bear/doctor as if that bear is her outlet of her thoughts or emotions. The last few seconds of the video made me look back on the COOKIE controversy. That it was planned even how uncomfortable it is. It shows how these companies can tell these idols to just dress them up, smile, or dance, and move on to the ongoing concept or comeback. It's a very nice interpretation and a new take on the relationship between the idol, their fans, their personal life, their career life, and everything in between. What is incredible with the message it holds is that EVERYONE experiences this whether you are a student, traffic enforcer, military personnel, or just someone finding who they are in life, if they're working/studying for someone. Do you define yourself as someone that helps others? Do THOSE people you helped define you? Where do you place youreself in those circumstances?

17:02 Tzuyuuuuu cryingggg. She left her home at an early age to pursue her dream to be an idol. This clip was when she said she missed her mom and home. I'm low-key stanning New Jeans right now. I love their music as well as the hidden meanings of their m/v making me appreciate my idols more. They're also human beings after all.

For 16:51 i think it's the companies which force their idols to act cute, mysterious or stuff like that to attract fans

The team behind this mv is awesome and really creative, also this group is something looking for new music from them

The reaction video I've been waiting for!!! Already watched a lot of reactions/analysis since OMG mv dropped but it just hits differently when Jordan is the one breaking it down. Always the best on point mv reactions 💯

wow. i love the way you break down the video and explain it from both the filmmaking and story telling angles!

It’s about against religious cult group “dan-world”

The reason i started stanning kpop is because of not only because of the song but because of the every element they used to produce such wonderful Music Videos. 🔥

The creativity of people behind their MVs is beyond the imagination. I've never seen anything like that!

I couldn't wait for your commentary on this mv. I saw it and I knew there would be so much to analyse and note. Thank you for explaining it and showing some of the details. I'm sure there's so much more that could be said! I would love to watch a longer video of you analysing it in details

Love the breakdown of these New Jeans music videos. Great storytelling and video work... Refreshing from the typical kpop stuff and music in general

Ive been waiting too long for this one, i really love how you do your takes and explains everything so clearly. It is really worth the time watching your videos. More power and more videos 😊

Love all these reaction video from Jordan. Every time new K-pop MV comes out, I quickly check this channel to see his understandings on the said video whenever I'm having a hard time figuring out the meaning behind some scenes.

This music video is crazy 😭 it’s everything I wanted to create but never had enough talent to execute 😭😭😭 thank you for dissecting it this is amazing

This MV is Ditto's other perspective. Since it is known that Ditto's MV talks about the unilateral relationship between fans and idols, OMG talks about the relationship of idols with their fans and how their own perception changes due to what they want and say about them, just as you mentioned the iPhone refers to the fact that idols often only exist to please their fans. Now each member has their own delusion according to the label that bunnies have put on them, in the case of Minji she is responsible for the other members because fans have said that she is like NewJeans' mother (besides because she is the oldest). Danielle is laughing at all times during the video (like when she was watching the blank TV) since she is recognized for being the enthusiast of the group, in the case of Haerin as mentioned a lot in other comments they say that she has a cat-like face, and Hyein being the youngest of the group in addition to her charming visual they call her "princess"

new jeans omg mv has definitely inspired me to become a better editor/story teller, so shoutout to everyone who worked hard on this project. side note, Jordan's dancing is improving a lot.

Haerin has facial features similar to a cat and tons of people compare her to cats that’s why she’s a cat in the MV. (But she loves frogs 🐸)

I'm seriously thankful for u since u clear everything up for me and u don't just react to MVs with no background. Thanks Jordan.

I'm obsessed with new jeans

on ban heesoo’s channel, one of the videos’ description talked about heesoo accidentally giving hanni the wrong number and that she hasn’t been called yet. this could relate to the omg music video. 🤷 i rlly don’t know, just thought it might be a cool reference Edit: Just remembered something else. In another one of Ban Heesoo’s videos, she says that Hyein has fairy tale syndrome, basically thinking she’s a main character in a story. I rlly like how the music video’s tie together, and Ban Heesoo’s additions are great

I never realised that there was more to this mv, when I watched it I was confused, but after your materialistic explanation throughout, it painted a clearer picture, that's why I adore your content so much, you go through the things most people ignore, great work !

Shout out for all the heads behind this MV's concept, YOU GUYS ARE GENIUSS

자기가 침하하 보고 온 개청자면 개추ㅋㅋ

thank you for doing research about this and interpreting everything absolutely right! most people i saw reacting to this didn't even notice the roles the girls were playing or that there was a proper plot to this :( its sad to think that most people consume this without any thoughts. some people even called ditto and omg creepy because they didnt get it. so i really think this is exactly what kpop needs right now!! we need to use our brain again and stop being spoonfed everything

I literally only love your videos about new jeans!!! no one does it like you THANKSSS😊

this is why I love new jeans concept on a whole new level I love to hear the explanation and everything here.

I need to say this again, but NewJeans is such a breathe of fresh air in kpop. 4th gen groups these days are more on girl crush, hard choreographies, high notes, all rounder members, remix beats, uncommon concepts and so much more impossible to do which makes it oversaturated and very hard for newer groups to get with which is why most 4th gen idols are leaving because of the pressure especially most of them are MINORS. NewJeans has such a fun choreography, simple yet catchy songs, unique yet comfy clothes and overall the concepts are such a blast. I don't know why agencies need to make a group that have so much details to the point where it looks so messy now when they could just make something like NewJeans where it is so simple yet it catches everyone's attention because of what they can offer to us fans.

I love how you appreciate their contents

I am always fascinated by newjeans’ contents and i love your interpretations from an editor’s perspective!!

I always love to watch your explanations of the MV and also the comments about them, before was Twice (they still have a place in my heart) but since their debut is my favorite group and I hope they grow a lot and healthy without being affected by the dark side of the fandom. Thanks for your video is always satisfying to watch and love from Brazil!

I just think it’s incredibly bold to accurately point out the toxicity of kpop while being an undeniable part of it. That means if any news comes out about them being mistreated it’s twice as disappointing.

I rewatched this video and also the MV. I noticed that the aspect ratio shifts throughout the video. I guess the shift of the aspect ratio also indicates which is real and which is delusion.

This is an incredibly good breakdown! Probably the best one I’ve heard explain the concept!

Welcome back! I was waiting for you to do this and be blown away. Hope you had a good rest 🫶🏼

PLS WATCH OMG MV RN AND READ THE COMMENTS THERE ULL UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING

I always say that antis aren't the only toxic part of kpop. Even fans can be a source of difficulty for idols. I believe idols when they say they love their fans, in a way. Fans make their dreams come true and they tell them their stories in letters and videos. It's normal for them to be appreciative and feel affection. But fans also objectify them, take one thing they do or say and turn it into their entire personality, they assume stuff, make demands that cross boundaries etc. It's a hyperintense situation to be in, especially when you're young and trying to find your own way. I tip my hat off to all the idols who deal with all that. I hope they are provided with help in dealing with the mental strain of it all.

I need Jordan Orme's MV breakdown so I can understand more about the MV through new perspective and deep meaning of every scene. Thank you bro.

Love your breakdown on Omg and Ditto, really interesting to hear what you make of a complex storyline because as an editor you give it a different perspective. I appropriate each shot and applaud the director, editors, staff, actors and Newjeans members. Proud that they’re going this route of complex concepts with depth and meaning. I would like to suggest another artist-if you haven’t already listened too-who is here to change the idol industry. I hope you can react to Yunjin of LE SSERAFIM’s two songs, I≠ Doll and Raise y_our glass. I’d definitely like to hear your thoughts, thank you!

Well, most of times bunnies call Haerin a cat, cause she has kitty-face-type(?) Basically, her eyes look like a cat, so she self aware that she looks like a cat. Maybe in this MV, she believes what other people said about her to the point she lost herself

omgggggg it just my head commands me to check your chanel just now and new upload from youuuuuu!!!! aaakkk so exciteddd

Damn the breakdown you made is very impressive. No one made it like you did

Always when there’s a new vídeo when you talk about New Jeans I get inside a trip very cool about all the stetic and the perspective you show. Thank you! 💙

Fact: Watching any KPOP MV with Jordan makes it 100 times more fun

Yes finally, i wanted you to react to this since so long !!!!!!!!!!

Am learning so much from your vids and that makes me appreciate the featured music videos even more. Thank you!

New jeans and the staff behind all this are amazing. KEEP GOING ❤❤. I appreciate there hardwork and helping me survive Bc before new jeans I was completely suicidal but there music and personality helped me a lot❤ now all I do is vibe to there music and support what they do❤

다른 건 몰라도 뉴진스의 OMG 뮤비만큼은 음모론이라고 치부할수가 없었다.

A perfect analysis 👌👌

this is why i stanned NEWJEANS. the meanings behind everything.

This is the best reaction to the OMG video, you are a person who knows the industry therefore your comments are well founded, I was not a fan of Kpop precisely because the groups follow the same lines, but NewJeans blew my mind, they have definitely changed my perspective about the Kpop. Congratulations 👏

Fun fact: they actually gave a dance spoiler of omg in the ditto music video

I think haerin is a cat to show how fans want idols to behave and just act cute almost like a pet.

Once again, thanks to Jordan for the genius breakdown everything about Newjeans 🤘
