When people said SM doesn't need Mnet they're not kidding. Just look at how amazing this stage is compared to Mcountdown and stuff

irene's visual and seulgi's charisma in this stage isn't kidding. their dances also killing. such a pure perfection.

that is how backup dancers should be dressed. they all wore shiny things but irene and seulgi still stand out the most. backup dancers are part of the overall performance and i think sm is doing great styling their back up dancers

Why does every song which is titled "Monster" become a hit?

Something about this release feels like a cultural shift. Seulgi and Irene just ushered in a new era... Gen 5... Gen 6 and Gen 7.

The thing is that both Irene's and Seulgi's voice mix well.

Irene and Seulgi subunit is the best thing that happened in 2020

So smooth

At this point, SM doesn't even need to send their artists to music shows. Since The Stage has a lot more to show. Edit: Why is this blowing up? Some people in the comment needs to chill

For real SM need to do more series like this, instead of letting those TV companies' drunk director ruining the performance by filming artists from top view or zooming out during dance break

Seulgi's DUALITY is everythinggg,, especially at "I'm a little monster"

OMG seulrene charisma's so outstanding, their visual is not joke even they are monster i'm Blink but i love this and of course their MV too, fighting Reveluv

Ok but like, anyone else prefer the 'monster face' edit here? Seemed more smooth and clean to me.

Why do I see Irene's visual get better overtime? She's even younger than the past

1:50 I swear Irene scared the shit out of me when her face turned like that-

I love Irene's husky voice so much.. it almost feels like I get empowered by listening her voice lmao. Also how she manages to dance as well as seulgi (they both have different dancing styles yet compliment eachother nicely) says a lot about how she's skilled in dancing aswell!! I wish netizens and haters would stop thinking Irene is only good at being a visual and realise she's really talented and an all rounder, like she's the real deal you guys.

Seulgi's abs and overall built is perfect. She looks very hot in that outfit. She looks so good in white and she pull off that outfit well.

When that scary-face mask is done better in The Stage than in the actual MV

Irene is 30 but she looks like 18 Can you tell me secret of your beauty

why everyone is only paying attention to Irene's visual? Seulgi as beautiful as Irene, in my opinion, they are both equally gorgeous and perfect but stop sleeping at Seulgi's beauty

Seulgi: But monsters live forever Me: ..Yes, the song monster in sm never dies because they keep coming out with songs called "monster"

seulgi's vocal is no joke, she's so powerful

This song is a powerful slap to haters who claimed Irene couldn't sing

These stages are the best thing by SM. each artist gets equal screentime and camerawork is 👍👍amazing And SEULRENE out here killing me..

Irene is not only literally underrated dancer but also singer.....her voice is soo soothing and pure....she could pass as lead vocalist in any other group😍😍😍

the coolest thing about watching Irene and Seulgi is knowing their personalities off the stage through level up project, interviews, etc. but then seeing them put out a "monster" performance. Amazing aura, facial expressions, dancing, vocals.. everything.

Bae joohyun i miss you so much

*I don't know what else to praise about a month. SEULGI was just so incredibly out of control. Her voice, visuals, her charisma, her eyes, her facial expressions not joke, her clothes, her sharp body movements all have no doubt. Her always fits all genres. Proud of seulgi. And IRENE tho, I feel her have grown so much. The change is extraordinary. The vocal is getting better. Her facial expression is getting better. Her visual so beautiful. Everything is in this MV. Proud of irene*

Seulgi's telling the truth when she said her move is unique not ordinary

'The stage' is so high quality like damn their visual pops, sm made a great choice by making 'the stage'. Who need sbs & mnet snakes anyways

Red Velvet has THE best discography in kpop, and I'm saying this as a hardcore army.

SeulRene best sub-unit in 3rd kpop generations. Valid

holy shit everything is so on point, the visuals, the choreo. the outfits, REVELUVS WE WON

I don't think Irene is ever getting old Edit: So many likes.. thanks I am not saying that Irene is old,I am saying that she's looking younger day by day and becoming prettier than before PLZ read my name and do it if you want to may God protect your family

The transition from 1:49-1:51. That's so Flippin cool, I've never seen anything like it before.

This video is full of seulgi’s charisma I can’t handle all of this

they slayed this!! glad sm released this early.. feels like a compensation for the delayed mv

imagine if this has been done during psycho era as well, i'd cry earlier.

That dance move synced with the dubstep beat at 2:33 is just sensational, Irene & Seulgi on another level when it comes to their swift dance steps! Brilliant choreography!

Seulgi's body goals!

Why does it sound like I never heard Irene's voice? It just hits differently this time

"The stage" is one of best thing sm did for their artist tbh

The dance break at 2:30 is so AMAZING! They are sharp, clean, and controlled. People think dancing is all about sexiness, body rolls, and big power moves, but their's is classy and clean. Very nice

For those who are asking (copied from another comment)"They have 3 versions of their album: Top Note, Middle Note and Base Note. Top Note is black&white while Middle Note is a bit more colorful. The Base Note version of the album is not released yet but yall can preorder. The Top, Middle and Base names are based on the composition of perfume" now please go vote for them on mcountdown and idolchamp

Shindong did a great job! He just proves what a great Director he is. The framing and transitions are the best I've seen. SM artists don't need any music shows when there's a Shindong.

As problematic a company as SMENT is, they continue to be one of the Top 3 companies that puts out genuinely creative and different concepts for their groups. Like goddamn.

I saw seulgi one part and literally said ugh out loud cause she's so pretty

I CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF OF SEULGI

FUN FACT: The representative monster of this song is a “Funnel Web Spider” one of the world’s deadliest spider.

How is seulgi built like that tho, her body is sooo perfecttt

Love love love Seulgi! She can sing and dance very well, absolutely gorgeous, has a body to die for, an amazing visual artist and has a great personality.

Seulgi voice is everything

Seulgi: girls crush Irene: boys crush Seulrene: world's crush

Irene will age when she wants, she rules over time.

ok but like *WHY ARE THE FRAMES ON THIS CAMERA SO ASTRONOMICAL-*

올 해 여름 가장 멋졌던 우리 레벨 유닛 아슬 컨텐츠 많이 내준다고 고생많았어 덕분에 다시보고 싶을 때 마다 찾아서 볼 수 있네 최고의 퍼포먼스 괴물신인 아이린&슬기 !

Choreo: exists Cameraman half of the time: Ooh look at their faces! Me: Still not complaining tho

So no one's gonna talk about their back up dancers? They did pretty well too. 👏

it’s sO SMOOTH LIKE- IT’S SMOOTHER THAN IRENE OR SEULGI’S ARMPITS-

Our Irene and Seulgi worked so hard for this come back. In order to show our love and gratitude, let's give them all the wins they deserve. Watch the mv, install voting apps and don't forget to encourage other luvies too.

Seulgi's charisma isn't a joke yall And also Baephrodite 🔥

Whoever did the background effects deserves a raise, they really added another level to this performance!

Seulgi i'm proud of you and ily so much

Seulgi's body is everything

Thank you. I'm a big monster.

The camera angles here are more better than the one who yeeted out far far away from red velvet

Seulgiiiiiii i love your voice!!!!

so beautiful irene and seulgi

Irene's face should be a national treasure.

I GOTTA ADMIT THIS, IREENE AND SEULGI IS ONE IF THE BEST VISUAL COMBINATION OF SM.

Manifesting Aseul comeback. I need the best subunit to have a comeback. Please SM! 😭🙏💗💗💗💛💛💛

No matter what they say, no matter what they do uri bae joohyun will always shining

Okay but no one's gonna talk about Seulgi's body? i mean she's HOT

i’m so glad that irene became a part of this subunit. a huge slap to those who belittles her talent and those who says that her only contribution to rv is her visual. her dancing and singing skills are often underestimated so this subunit will be her time to prove that she didn’t train for how many years for nothing. she and seulgi will have a long way to go. i’m sooo proud of them. i know we all are.

Irene beautyful💖 Seulgi cute💚

Amazing how the backup dancers are wearing shiny tops while sulrene is wearing plain white but still SHINE.

I would definitely learn this choreography this song is a masterpiece

Somebody: "Irene just depend with her visual" Irene: "Seriously? How about with this video?" Irene silence them with her dance and her vocals lol

This is what happened if SM make the main dancer and lead dancer of the group in a unit. They are so sync

Camera angles, backgrounds, lightnings, dancers, choreography, vocals, Visuals And specially Seulgi And Irene makes the stage PERFECT!!!🔥🔥🔥😍💕😈👻

SM choreographer: so how many squats do you wanna do Seulrene: yes

irene's visual and seulgi's body is what every girls wants, tbh seulgi is swag T_T

IM LOSING MY MIND THIS IS AMAZING Im seriously so shocked but also so proud ..this is truly a masterpiece ..and damn Irene she gained so much confident ... Love it love it love it ..both did an amazing work

이게 첫 유닛앨범인데 벌써부터 다 박살냈다ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ 다음엔 얼마나 더 박살내려고ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

i just think this song is very perfect to drama "its okay not to be okay" when ko mun Yeong savage part

Seulgi's hips don't lie

아 스엠이서 THE STAGE 다시 해줬으면 좋겠다. 당시에는 뭔 나오는 비디오 마다 욕을 먹어서 그런가보다 했는데 슴 가수들 컴백 할 때 마다 4k로 각 버전마다 주는 이만한 퍼포먼스 콘텐츠가 없음..

The best unit/duo has come. They literally became a monster at their debut. Come on Seulrene!

They refused to let go of that scary edit. They are here to give me small heart attack.

I wish this song will make people see Irene as more than just a "visual" look at her talent over flowing! You go girl!

Seulgi’ vocal is daebakkkk!

Was NOT expecting irene to transform again i almost jumped lmao

WE DID THIS FOR THE GIRLS AND THE GAYS - SEULRENE

SEULGI'S VOCALS so smooooth!! 😍😍😍

1:51 did anyone else noticed that amazing , cool irene's face that popped up ???? She looks amazing even she had became a ghost there! Beauty u know

Proud of Shindong and his team for direct this whole The Stage Performance. SM doing great job for accepting shin's the stage request. Proud of him💙

fangirl = like fanboy = comment seulrene is coming 🗣️

Best vocal, best visual, best duo in the world

Seulgi slays the stage

2019 IRENE: *IM ORIGINAL VISUAL* 2020 IRENE: *IM ORIGINAL MONSTER*
