i would like to add a thing that many people didnt really notice... the scene 11:43 it shows that jisoo is the pistil of the flower and is surrounded by the petals (all the girls) where the petals are with different emotions which shows how she was surrounded and traped in between her emotions.. but at the last she removes her flower choker and escapes herself from the maze of
I've seen a lot of people complaining that the production is too empty, but I love it. Kpop producers rarely leave so much space, and the samples are crisp as hell.
Exactlyyy. On reddit people are complaining abt the song and mv being so empty but I absolutely love it. This just fits jisoo so well and screams THIS IS JISOO
Jisoo's solo is definitely THE REVOLUTION. The concept is very calm but fierce, the outfits are very beautiful, totally my favorite solo of all the pinks solos.
Finally, someone talked about the story, the theme, the music video wants to portray, the art of it. THANK YOU! all I see are people reacting with the outfits. Basically, the surface. Not connecting it to the song. And it bothers me because Jisoo likes to tell stories and she's very much creative.
YG really said 'we're gonna use the hell out of Jisoo's acting skills'. That was the perfect decision too! The song is really good, it makes me feel warm inside. And Jisoo was amazing here, I can clearly see why she's a BP member. She has raw charisma and talent.
I agree 💯 they made a good choice with the movie-like video, I’d love to see her in a mystery thriller 🍿 Also- she’s more than just a member, she’s the glue that keeps them all together… the strong backbone of support every eldest member should be, uplifting all of their talents together and individually… Blackpink is the biggest band because of her, so humble and graceful 🌹
I actually think that Jisoo is, like she says on the lyrics, a butterfly, and her ex, was the flower. After they broke up, "there was nothing left but the scent of a flower". Her looking at the flowers where here being mesmerized with him, here throwing the flowers was her angry at him, she was the butterfly, attracted to this flower. Butterflies are also colorful, and on a scene, she was wearing a bright black outfit at night, like night butterflies or moths. Thats the reason she takes out her flower choker at the end, cause she no longer has that flower.
for me i just see and understand the criticism for this song but the song, the lyrics, the music, the tonality all come together perfectly with the mv shots, colors, jisoo’s acting and styling and it’s just all so perfect to me that i’m satisfied with the final product i’m so happy it’s been so long since i’ve been completely immersed into a kpop comeback aside from my ults and jisoo did THAT
I think it's the most different song from all 4 solos, so it makes sense that it divides some people. SOLO, On the Ground, Lalisa, were pure YG songs, Flower, while it has the same structure, does not sound like a pure YG song. I also like the fact that ALL EYES ON ME and FLOWERS are very coherent together, with the same sounds and tonalities.
True! I understand the criticism but concept comes through strong and really fits the soyaaa vibe and I love that because that is so her and she is so comfortable and flawless throughout the mv I’m so proud of her,being a huge jisoo Stan😫🤩
@kimhaeun Even the MV is pretty unique, with a strong concept. It's like people criticising Hush Rush from Chaeyeon, saying it was boring when she served THE concept. Not all songs needs to have crazy adlibs and crazy structures. I think it shuts the mouth of people who said that Jisoo was the least interested in music, with such a concept, MV, song, I doubt she is not interested in music at all.
I agree so much, the lyrics are just so beautiful and the set, the vocals and the girl herself rocked. It suits her vibe so much. I honestly don't understand the "criticism". I was waiting for this sort of soft song to come out and Jisoo did not disappoint.
@Jessica Jessica could talk a better example. Serving the concept is the most important thing. vocals, classy choreography mixed with stage presence can create a bomb solo debut 🥰
Actually the entire MV is a reference to Everything Everywhere All At Once. It's "Next Day Same Time Same Place" there are many Jisoos, it's like an actual multiverse. In each universe she's dealing with this break up. The last scene is from the same moment the Chapter 1 appeared, which shows us the universe where she moved on, that she ended well
i would like to add a thing that many people didnt really notice... the scene 11:44 it shows that jisoo is the pistil of the flower and is surrounded by the petals (all the girls) where the petals are with different emotions which shows how she was surrounded and traped in between her emotions.. but at the last she removes her flower choker and escpes herself from the maze of petals 🤗🤗 whatsoever.... OUR UNNIE SLAYEDDDD... THE WHOLE WORLD WAS WAITING FOR THIS SHE DIDNT LET US DOWN :)))))))))))💫💫
@Chvv yes u can say that but try to look closely u will se a girl who will be very happy on the right sad of jisoo(upper) and u can see. Left where they look confident and right where one girl looks kinda angry like typa and when u see downwards u will see a girl for real sad(really noticeable).. and I made this theory on the basis of what I noticed and saw on the mv:) theories aren't 100% true
Jisoo has an air of misery and elegance. she is unpredictable, with her there is always surprises that's why I like her.. she will not give you a typical or common style or performance, always unique and different.. ❤
The whole aesthetic of the video makes it look like a big Dior commercial which i am absolutely here for. This somehow sounds exactly like what i expected ( didnt watch the teasers ) while at the same time being completely different from what i expected...HOW? Also how is it even possible for someone to be THIS gorgeous? Honestly my favorite solo from the members. Jisoo's voice is amongst my favorite voices in the world, there's just something so unique about her vocal tone that makes it even hard to explain. Almost like her voice makes 2 notes at the same time, like she as integrated harmonies in her vocal chords? Idk. Visuals are just... I mean its Jisoo so 😂 For some reason the scene/shot that sticks with me the most is when she breaks the pearl necklace, something so beautiful and powerful at the same time, idk, this scene really stands out for me. Absolutely love this its just so Jisoo.
4 years ago I thought Du-Ddu-Du was addictive! But Jesus, that Flower song of Jisoo is going to send me to SAA, song addiction anonymous! I don’t know what vibrations Jisoo uses but her voice sends me shivers all along my spine. My eyes can’t leave her because naturally attracted to beauty, to her beauty, her grace, her elegance, her fluidity in the swan moves, her different fashion styles, mostly if not exclusively Christian Dior. And Flower is a real song, not a collage of different tempos, finally! The editing is exceptional and also I give my admiration to her formidable and gracious dancers. She illuminates my life by just watching her. Clearly it’s my favorite all-time K-pop song. Long and happy life to Jisoo from a fan in Montréal.
Really enjoyed your reaction to this one! Honestly I expected you to have less to appreciate because it "feels" like there's a lot less going on compared to most kpop music videos, but watching your insight into and acknowledgement of all the creative decisions in this was really great.
Love your insights, picked out a lot of great details! YG stated that this video had the biggest production budget of all Blackpink video's so far, utilizing the Universal Studios New York Street set and the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. When at home in Korea, Blackpink uses a camera setup with three Arri Alexa in a hand held, rail mount and articulating crane setup. This one likely was shot on Universal Studios movie cameras. I guess we will see when the behind the scenes video comes out.
I also noticed Jisoo’s teary eye in 11:08 and the next scene, you can see that they intentionally put glitters. Which makes it a very smooth transition. Lastly the story ends with her moving on because at the beginning the back up dancers were blindfolded, then at the end the back up dancers werent.
Thank you for your reaction. It's not to see people like you appreciating Jisoo's solo and acknowledging her efforts and skills put into making this MV.
I loved how the music video was relaxing and calming. It kinda reminds me of Jennie's Solo (which I believe it was intentional). The song fits Jisoo's style. Congratulations to Jisoo. Now everyone has their solos.
Like this is what I expected from Jisoo's Debut I mean she gives Princess vibes ,calm and fresh . This music is soo good and It's definitely her song...
When Jordan imitated the backup dancer it was so funny I died I’m so happy Jisoo got her solo and it wasn’t disappointing it was good and suits her so much
i think the message for choosing that venue for the video is to imply thats where she met the person who told her they loved her and she comes to visit the next day at same time around and all thats left is a scent of flowers, where flowers symbolize kind gestures and the affirmation to make her feel shes the only one. also the music video kinda made it look like its a hotel or something so she needs to dress up for some occasion ig and the she wore pearls and nice dresses. the one in the first chorus kinda felt like she was blinded by the "flowers" she received thats why the dancers have blindfolds in the scene, and the one the blooms in her palm was trying to say she believed its gonna last forever cuz our palms mean future? the dancing alone in some ball room is like reminscing thats where they had these happy memories or something. at the beginning of the video she kinda seemed nervous cuz she was afraid shed get recocgnized by the maids for visiting the place again thats why she looked away when the maid walked past her? the music video shows how simple a girl's mind is, i could relate to having ppl around trying to convince of what they want us to be and forgetting what we truly are but we always come back to realising we went way too far by the time weve been lied to and hurt. i always check your videos to learn about visuals and editing and youre super amazing! now i just had the balls to comment and im happy lol. i look forward to seeing your videos in the future i sure will love them!
Love the way how you talk about the editing part and the beat part. She put lot of different emotions inside, she has good acting skill, this is her talent. She said she keep discovering new sides of her and wanted to show us, she keeps trying different thought and keep having different meeting on her solo album. What I can say is this song suit her so much, she just need to be herself no need to compare with others. Another masterpiece and everything so mesmerising. Her voice, her visual, her style, her emotions everything on point. She express the emotion well through MV. Love her so much. Can't wait to see she get awards
I love the "BlackPink" nod towards the end. The dancers wore black and had their hands painted pink. Also, Jisoo in the center in bright pink. 💗💗 Love it!
12:12 Jisoo is actually wearing a special outfit by Reparto Studio, a Spanish Brand where the heart corset is made up of the tags/labels of other emerging Spanish designers and the skirt is made out of posters found in the streets of Madrid. :) Btw, i love your reaction video for Jisoo, thank you so much! This is proof that film is timeless and beautiful.
I’m fully addicted to this song and video… I was wondering why it was so beautiful so thank you for explaining, it’s the film! 🎬 (and Jisoo of course) love your attention to detail, your commentary is awesome… subscribed 🤍
After looping her song for 90 straight minutes, I knew I had to watch your reaction to see the MV from a different view to further appreciate what I already knew was an instant classic! And, of course, you added such depth to understand why I was enjoying everything the way I did!! Great job!
She's soo beautiful.. the mv is so beautiful. Everything is just beautiful. Mind you she had to filmed this in the middle of BornPink tour, so she could only filmed in two sets, Universal Studio L.A, and Millennium Biltmore Hotel Los Angeles. But it came out so beautiful, I love it so much.
Controversial statement: I have a fairly strong notion that the subtext of the video is that rather than it being an ordinary love story, Jisoo is playing a sex worker, a 'flower girl.' In past centuries in China, Japan and Korea, the title 'sing-song girl' (Chinese:), or 'flower girl,' was a slang term for a courtesan. The yellow building which Jisoo stands outside of, looking in at a set of pearls, was painted that colour specifically for this MV shoot. It strongly suggests the 1996 Korean film 'Yellow House,' which is about a sex worker who struggles with her identity when she is forced to leave the Yellow House brothel of the title. Jisoo is playing the role of someone who is deeply conflicted by her profession, with all the waiting around in hotel rooms and lobbies, avoiding eye contact with maids and elevator operators, plus all the inevitable heartbreak and loneliness. At the same time she is still attracted to the money she makes and the sense of power it brings, as this may be her only alternative to poverty. The tearing off of the choker at the end is a signal of the character taking charge of her independence. She is no one's pet or possession. PS: This is a description of a role that actress Jisoo is playing. It is not actually a description of our wonderful Jisoo, the brilliant and talented actor and singer from Blackpink.
The chapter names makes sense when you put it together: Next Day, Same Time, Same Place. To me it looks like Jisoo has arrived the next day (of her breakup/disaster) at the same time (when it happened) and the same place (where it happened). The present day Jisoo is the one wearing sparkling blue dress and maybe she's reminiscing of the past (her with the flower, her in the hotel, her wearing white dress) and coming in terms with it all (her dancing in different colours) before finally moving on (walking away and removing the flower choker).
So the bits where she is dancing in all the bright dresses and looking at the necklace in the shop, is that supposed to be her reminiscing in her mind back to the original time and place where the break up was?? Or was she actually going back and re-living it? I’m still trying to wrap my head around the chapters concept lol
That makes so much sense! And I would say that it's broken up into chapters because these are sort of stages of processing for her. It's next day - that is already in the past, this is a new day. Same time - she looks back at that moment, but also looks at the relationship from the outside, is able to see all of it finally. Same place - she is able to calmly revisit the space that used to be about the relationship and breakup, everything feels changed because she herself has changed, and she is now free. This makes sense in my head at least lol
It's also nice to note that the dancers eventually lose their red blindfolds when they made the pink flower formation. The specific dance step seemed to be symbolic of Jisoo (or her character in the song) that she has already bloomed, with eyes wide open finally seeing the truth and/or already has the strength to see what's ahead of her.
When you said that “It really fit the theme of the song” that’s when it hit me (even though you weren’t talking about the song). That the reason the song was composed to have a more calm and empty melody was because it reflected the theme and Jisoo was trying to show. The song felt very melancholic and it was mostly told in past tense. Like it was a song told about the past, a past that is sad but in the present she’s already over it. Therefore the song doesn’t sound like a sad story just a story that had happened in the past. A feeling of some what nostalgia which is also reflected in the film camera. A lot of people said that this song was a ‘safe’ song which made it boring but I think there was a reason behind why the melody sounded the way it did and in reality most k-pop songs don’t sound like this, it’s usually more loud and energetic, which isn’t a bad thing I just think that she did go outside the ‘safe k-pop zone’ and really developed a song that is unique to k-pop.
Before seeing this review i thought It was amazing and now after seeing this I feel like jisoo flower is most unique mv in k-pop. Thanks for you review ❤
I think we're so conditioned to have a ton of chaos and action in k-pop videos (especially BP videos) that this more minimalist video hits really differently. The song and the visuals are so hypnotic
ONE OF MY MOST WAITED REACTION FOR JISOO FLOWER MV 😍 I UNDERSTAND MORE THE STORY BECAUSE OF YOUR EXPLANATION IN IT THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL REACTION 👏💕🌷
As always, great reaction with lots of keen observations. I always discover so many new things from your reactions. Question about the mirror effect: isn't it just a tri-fold vanity, so that you see her and the background at different times in each mirror due to the different angles? EDIT: Strike that - one Jisoo is moving her lips, but the other two are not.
I was waiting for you and as usual you did not disappoint. Great reaction as always! Btw i really really love the song. It's been hours but i'm still not feeling bored listening to this
I love the structured textile dress she wears in the ballroom scene... it gives me Scarlett O'Hara's curtain dress vibes. I feel like this video makes a really good companion piece to Jenni's "Solo" if not just because of all the impeccably elegant fashion choices.
Wow! I actually understood the MV better after watching this! I've watched it a couple of times already but I was so focused on the sophisticated choreography and how beautiful Jisoo is. So thank you and subscribed!
The K-Pop fandom is extremely used to extremely hype, fast moving, and energetic songs; and so it makes me a bit sad when I saw there was a lot of "criticism" about how "empty" or "plain" the M/V was, when I thought it was beautiful and well executed with a greatly driven theme. I hope more M/Vs like this occur in the k-pop industry, it gets a tad boring/predictable when a lot of groups go for the same editing style.
Not jisoo expressing my emotions throughout the day. 8 am happy to be alive. 12pm hangry. 3pm crying in my bedroom. 10pm dancing away my fears and acting confident.. 😂😊❤
hol up... i thnk, her emotions in this music video is like a bouquet of flowers. they are nicely arranged, wrapped, and tied together.... each flowers represents her emotion(?)... red, blue, white, purple, pink and etc flowers...
Thanks, Jordan! Now everything in this video makes sense to me and finally I understand why I liked it so much. Amazing work. Totally need to subscribe to your channel!
I never thought to interpret the story in JISOO's music video from the perspective of video production, and it really amazed me. Through the explanation of the camera, I could feel the powerful sense of sadness and confidence even more. JISOO's performance was beautiful, powerful, and infectious!
Very wholesome and very detailed reaction as always from Jordan. When i watch some Music videos i happen to catch those small details too the effect watching this awesome person makes me a different person and i'm looooving it.😂
dude, i wasn't expecting any reaction from you for this m/v (despite of the fact that i ALWAYS wait for your detailed & funny reactions) bcs i thought jisoo's m/v didn't really show any special editing technique/ semiotically deep meaning, but i'm glad you DID. i just realized it all now after watching you. thank you so much for that!! (p.s. i've subscribed😂🫰🏻)
Thank you for your expert inputs. This makes me 100x times more appropriate the hard work and beauty of this master piece. It may not be flashy style like Lisa's or typical YG but it IS beautiful and suit Jisoo the most. Thank you again!
thanks for the break down, otherwise i would never catch those small details which made this mv even more awsome :) this is the most anticipated solo comback of all time!
her moves with the emotions and also sets and colors contrast, her dreamy voice and lyrics all are freaking insane together i love how you show small details in it ….. 🤍
I loved you reaction! 😂 for me this song was amazing and I was more surprised than I was before I hope Jisoo has the support she deserves because it’s been years and she is the last member to have a solo! ❤
if you like the cuts in dancing watch Knock - Lee Chae Yeon, almost the entire video the editing is focused on the dancing but theres one specific scene thats wonderful in my opinion. You should def check it out :)
Why people saying that jisso's solo is not that good but I think I fall in love with it every time I heard that song it feels better and better every time I am really addicted to it and I really appreciate jisoo's hardwork proud of you jisoo❤
Jordan, I knew you would be spot on with your breakdown of this video. Lots of emotions, lots of color, sick beat, great lyrics, and awesome editing. My favorite scene is the elevator scene. when she enters she give the gentlemen in the elevator a little " side-eye" and she is clearly annoyed at his presence or something he may have said that we obviously couldn't hear. Jisoo's acting skills are really good.. I guess that's why she won an award for her performance in the series "Snowdrop". You rock dude!
One thing that I noticed in the music video, once Same Day and Same Time Jisoo appears the size of the shot goes full, but when memory Jisoo appears, the shot size is not full and in the corners there resembles a film roll. Yeah I just noticed this after 13 days of the release hahahahaha
Thank you for pointing out that her movements are to the snap beats and it makes it smooth, because from my point of view, I was hearing the other parts and it was messing with my perception of the video, which made it feel sudden. I really love your breakdowns of the music videos, it makes me appreciate the work of the video and the artist more.

i would like to add a thing that many people didnt really notice... the scene 11:43 it shows that jisoo is the pistil of the flower and is surrounded by the petals (all the girls) where the petals are with different emotions which shows how she was surrounded and traped in between her emotions.. but at the last she removes her flower choker and escapes herself from the maze of
Pls react to "ALL EYES ON ME" which is Jisoo's side track.
@jemimah jasline He doesn’t react to Non-music video
I subbed so now leave me alone...
IM SO HAPPY JISOO GOT HER SOLO! This is honestly really cool for me and im really too happy to even come up with words to say, it's that mesmerizing
Yeh when it was live all I did was scream of happiness
Felt the same way. Still feeling the same way rather 😊 i'm so happy 🥹
so trueee although unrelated question, IS THAT DOPPIO IN UR PFP?
Me too
Same I’m so kn love with this song
I've seen a lot of people complaining that the production is too empty, but I love it. Kpop producers rarely leave so much space, and the samples are crisp as hell.
Exactlyyy. On reddit people are complaining abt the song and mv being so empty but I absolutely love it. This just fits jisoo so well and screams THIS IS JISOO
ayo
@한미라 IKR❤
For real! That's what make Jisoo and flower so unique!❤
Right, kpop fans are so used to the overenergetic songs they can't appreciate calmer songs anymore
Jisoo's solo is definitely THE REVOLUTION. The concept is very calm but fierce, the outfits are very beautiful, totally my favorite solo of all the pinks solos.
G DRAGON KING ,,,
FOR REAL!!!! HER SOLO IS MY FAVORITE🥹🫶
But lalisa is good tho
@AUTISM who said lalisa is bad here..

@himari riku no
Finally, someone talked about the story, the theme, the music video wants to portray, the art of it. THANK YOU! all I see are people reacting with the outfits. Basically, the surface. Not connecting it to the song. And it bothers me because Jisoo likes to tell stories and she's very much creative.
PLSS !! IKR it's so annoying 😢😢
YG really said 'we're gonna use the hell out of Jisoo's acting skills'. That was the perfect decision too! The song is really good, it makes me feel warm inside. And Jisoo was amazing here, I can clearly see why she's a BP member. She has raw charisma and talent.

Ohhhhhh ty:)
They don't really seem to have "different emotions" during this moment though? It's a cool theory but I feel like it's kind of far-fetched
Wow very well noticed i could never think in that way!!!
@Chvv ?
@Chvv yes u can say that but try to look closely u will se a girl who will be very happy on the right sad of jisoo(upper) and u can see. Left where they look confident and right where one girl looks kinda angry like typa and when u see downwards u will see a girl for real sad(really noticeable).. and I made this theory on the basis of what I noticed and saw on the mv:) theories aren't 100% true
Jisoo has an air of misery and elegance. she is unpredictable, with her there is always surprises that's why I like her.. she will not give you a typical or common style or performance, always unique and different.. ❤
It’s so unlike any Blackpink project I’ve ever heard! I’m freaking in love and it doesn’t sound like Kpop at all🖤💗🌺
It resembles Korean folk music.
it resembles SOLO by jennie
@francus Locgy i don't think so, both are different vibes...
@Don't Peek both breakup song is only the similar
@francus Locgy no, its not..
The whole aesthetic of the video makes it look like a big Dior commercial which i am absolutely here for.

l put my hamster in a sock and sIammed it against the furniture
@TippyHippy Why Bro
@TippyHippy 😐

Film emulations just make everything look better. Really love the look of the MV 🙌
i think it's real film :)
@Jordan Orme then, in that case, it's even better :))
This is real film I loaded the film for this :-)
@Accuracy By Volume sounds pretty legit, I'll trust you :))))))
To be specific it was a mix of film and an Alexa mini but maybe 80% film using stock 5219. If that helps :-).
4 years ago I thought Du-Ddu-Du was addictive! But Jesus, that Flower song of Jisoo is going to send me to SAA, song addiction anonymous!

This MV was already good, but watching it agian after this vid gave it even more character and story
Really enjoyed your reaction to this one! Honestly I expected you to have less to appreciate because it "feels" like there's a lot less going on compared to most kpop music videos, but watching your insight into and acknowledgement of all the creative decisions in this was really great.

I also noticed Jisoo’s teary eye in 11:08 and the next scene, you can see that they intentionally put glitters. Which makes it a very smooth transition. Lastly the story ends with her moving on because at the beginning the back up dancers were blindfolded, then at the end the back up dancers werent.
THE SONG IS JUST 100000000/10
Agreed
No the song is ∞/10
@Bindu joseph 😂😂😂no one asked you though
@Jennifer nwabueze then why did you even reply 😎
I LOVE IT SO MUCHH
Thank you for your reaction. It's not to see people like you appreciating Jisoo's solo and acknowledging her efforts and skills put into making this MV.
Jisoo is a QUEEN, and I am so happy she finally got her solo debut! Best Blackpink solo, in my opinion. Love it!
I am so happy that Jisoo has finally gotten her long awaited solo.🌸🌺
I loved how the music video was relaxing and calming. It kinda reminds me of Jennie's Solo (which I believe it was intentional). The song fits Jisoo's style. Congratulations to Jisoo. Now everyone has their solos.
Like this is what I expected from Jisoo's Debut I mean she gives Princess vibes ,calm and fresh . This music is soo good and It's definitely her song...
ITS SO COOL, I honestly really enjoyed her solo and she slayed it. I loved the theme and her voice is what I needed it's just- mesmerising
Love your interpretation of the mv Your in-depth knowledge in editing and production made it so much more interesting
:)
@Jordan Orme when you gonna reactto jimin??the real king
When Jordan imitated the backup dancer it was so funny I died I’m so happy Jisoo got her solo and it wasn’t disappointing it was good and suits her so much
i think the message for choosing that venue for the video is to imply thats where she met the person who told her they loved her and she comes to visit the next day at same time around and all thats left is a scent of flowers, where flowers symbolize kind gestures and the affirmation to make her feel shes the only one. also the music video kinda made it look like its a hotel or something so she needs to dress up for some occasion ig and the she wore pearls and nice dresses. the one in the first chorus kinda felt like she was blinded by the "flowers" she received thats why the dancers have blindfolds in the scene, and the one the blooms in her palm was trying to say she believed its gonna last forever cuz our palms mean future? the dancing alone in some ball room is like reminscing thats where they had these happy memories or something. at the beginning of the video she kinda seemed nervous cuz she was afraid shed get recocgnized by the maids for visiting the place again thats why she looked away when the maid walked past her? the music video shows how simple a girl's mind is, i could relate to having ppl around trying to convince of what they want us to be and forgetting what we truly are but we always come back to realising we went way too far by the time weve been lied to and hurt. i always check your videos to learn about visuals and editing and youre super amazing! now i just had the balls to comment and im happy lol. i look forward to seeing your videos in the future i sure will love them!
Love the way how you talk about the editing part and the beat part. She put lot of different emotions inside, she has good acting skill, this is her talent. She said she keep discovering new sides of her and wanted to show us, she keeps trying different thought and keep having different meeting on her solo album. What I can say is this song suit her so much, she just need to be herself no need to compare with others. Another masterpiece and everything so mesmerising. Her voice, her visual, her style, her emotions everything on point. She express the emotion well through MV. Love her so much. Can't wait to see she get awards
I love the "BlackPink" nod towards the end. The dancers wore black and had their hands painted pink. Also, Jisoo in the center in bright pink. 💗💗 Love it!
Her music and the actual music video is so good, it’s her own sound
12:12 Jisoo is actually wearing a special outfit by Reparto Studio, a Spanish Brand where the heart corset is made up of the tags/labels of other emerging Spanish designers and the skirt is made out of posters found in the streets of Madrid. :) Btw, i love your reaction video for Jisoo, thank you so much! This is proof that film is timeless and beautiful.
I’m fully addicted to this song and video… I was wondering why it was so beautiful so thank you for explaining, it’s the film! 🎬 (and Jisoo of course) love your attention to detail, your commentary is awesome… subscribed 🤍
After looping her song for 90 straight minutes, I knew I had to watch your reaction to see the MV from a different view to further appreciate what I already knew was an instant classic! And, of course, you added such depth to understand why I was enjoying everything the way I did!! Great job!
She's soo beautiful.. the mv is so beautiful. Everything is just beautiful. Mind you she had to filmed this in the middle of BornPink tour, so she could only filmed in two sets, Universal Studio L.A, and Millennium Biltmore Hotel Los Angeles. But it came out so beautiful, I love it so much.
Controversial statement: I have a fairly strong notion that the subtext of the video is that rather than it being an ordinary love story, Jisoo is playing a sex worker, a 'flower girl.' In past centuries in China, Japan and Korea, the title 'sing-song girl' (Chinese:), or 'flower girl,' was a slang term for a courtesan. The yellow building which Jisoo stands outside of, looking in at a set of pearls, was painted that colour specifically for this MV shoot. It strongly suggests the 1996 Korean film 'Yellow House,' which is about a sex worker who struggles with her identity when she is forced to leave the Yellow House brothel of the title. Jisoo is playing the role of someone who is deeply conflicted by her profession, with all the waiting around in hotel rooms and lobbies, avoiding eye contact with maids and elevator operators, plus all the inevitable heartbreak and loneliness. At the same time she is still attracted to the money she makes and the sense of power it brings, as this may be her only alternative to poverty. The tearing off of the choker at the end is a signal of the character taking charge of her independence. She is no one's pet or possession. PS: This is a description of a role that actress Jisoo is playing. It is not actually a description of our wonderful Jisoo, the brilliant and talented actor and singer from Blackpink.
This is actually one of the best reactions to Jisoos solo
My favourite solo song so far! And the visuals are just gorgeous
The chapter names makes sense when you put it together: Next Day, Same Time, Same Place. To me it looks like Jisoo has arrived the next day (of her breakup/disaster) at the same time (when it happened) and the same place (where it happened). The present day Jisoo is the one wearing sparkling blue dress and maybe she's reminiscing of the past (her with the flower, her in the hotel, her wearing white dress) and coming in terms with it all (her dancing in different colours) before finally moving on (walking away and removing the flower choker).
Oh it makes sense!
So the bits where she is dancing in all the bright dresses and looking at the necklace in the shop, is that supposed to be her reminiscing in her mind back to the original time and place where the break up was?? Or was she actually going back and re-living it? I’m still trying to wrap my head around the chapters concept lol
So , the scent of the flower remains means like the memories good or bad 🌸
That makes so much sense! And I would say that it's broken up into chapters because these are sort of stages of processing for her. It's next day - that is already in the past, this is a new day. Same time - she looks back at that moment, but also looks at the relationship from the outside, is able to see all of it finally. Same place - she is able to calmly revisit the space that used to be about the relationship and breakup, everything feels changed because she herself has changed, and she is now free. This makes sense in my head at least lol
Sooo happy for Jisoo, the MV was perfect
It's also nice to note that the dancers eventually lose their red blindfolds when they made the pink flower formation. The specific dance step seemed to be symbolic of Jisoo (or her character in the song) that she has already bloomed, with eyes wide open finally seeing the truth and/or already has the strength to see what's ahead of her.
When you said that “It really fit the theme of the song” that’s when it hit me (even though you weren’t talking about the song). That the reason the song was composed to have a more calm and empty melody was because it reflected the theme and Jisoo was trying to show. The song felt very melancholic and it was mostly told in past tense. Like it was a song told about the past, a past that is sad but in the present she’s already over it. Therefore the song doesn’t sound like a sad story just a story that had happened in the past. A feeling of some what nostalgia which is also reflected in the film camera. A lot of people said that this song was a ‘safe’ song which made it boring but I think there was a reason behind why the melody sounded the way it did and in reality most k-pop songs don’t sound like this, it’s usually more loud and energetic, which isn’t a bad thing I just think that she did go outside the ‘safe k-pop zone’ and really developed a song that is unique to k-pop.
Before seeing this review i thought It was amazing and now after seeing this I feel like jisoo flower is most unique mv in k-pop. Thanks for you review ❤
FINALLY JISOO GOT HER SOLO SHE IS AMAZING
I think we're so conditioned to have a ton of chaos and action in k-pop videos (especially BP videos) that this more minimalist video hits really differently. The song and the visuals are so hypnotic
Finally someone who appreciates how the mv was made
ONE OF MY MOST WAITED REACTION FOR JISOO FLOWER MV 😍 I UNDERSTAND MORE THE STORY BECAUSE OF YOUR EXPLANATION IN IT THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL REACTION 👏💕🌷
As always, great reaction with lots of keen observations. I always discover so many new things from your reactions. Question about the mirror effect: isn't it just a tri-fold vanity, so that you see her and the background at different times in each mirror due to the different angles? EDIT: Strike that - one Jisoo is moving her lips, but the other two are not.
I can't help but to comment that everytime I watched your reaction I get a whole new level of understanding to the MV. Thank you!
I was waiting for you and as usual you did not disappoint. Great reaction as always! Btw i really really love the song. It's been hours but i'm still not feeling bored listening to this
I love the structured textile dress she wears in the ballroom scene... it gives me Scarlett O'Hara's curtain dress vibes. I feel like this video makes a really good companion piece to Jenni's "Solo" if not just because of all the impeccably elegant fashion choices.
Wow! I actually understood the MV better after watching this! I've watched it a couple of times already but I was so focused on the sophisticated choreography and how beautiful Jisoo is. So thank you and subscribed!
The K-Pop fandom is extremely used to extremely hype, fast moving, and energetic songs; and so it makes me a bit sad when I saw there was a lot of "criticism" about how "empty" or "plain" the M/V was, when I thought it was beautiful and well executed with a greatly driven theme. I hope more M/Vs like this occur in the k-pop industry, it gets a tad boring/predictable when a lot of groups go for the same editing style.
Because of Jordan... I can now understand what is the message of Jisoo's Music video 😂 It's fun watch and learned also. Thank you so much ❤❤❤
Not jisoo expressing my emotions throughout the day. 8 am happy to be alive. 12pm hangry. 3pm crying in my bedroom. 10pm dancing away my fears and acting confident.. 😂😊❤
Im a jisoo fan and its my first time seeing your reaction and comments towards filming youre so fun to watch and very detailed explainations ,nice
You probably have the best MV reaction out there. Thanks for streaming Flower! ❤👏
She removed both her flower necklace AND her pearl necklace, one with anger and the other really smoothly and naturally, like she's free of it
That's a really cool observation! It totally fits the narrative of the song.
I'M LOVING THIS KIND OF REACTION! IT'S SO DETAILED.
i'm so happy i witnessed jisoo's solo for how many years of waiting! IT'S FINALLY HER TIME
Really love your reactions, makes me appreciate the mv more ❤
hol up... i thnk, her emotions in this music video is like a bouquet of flowers. they are nicely arranged, wrapped, and tied together.... each flowers represents her emotion(?)... red, blue, white, purple, pink and etc flowers...
The moment the M/V premiered, I thought "OMG, Jordan needs to react to this!"......I was waiting for this all day and now it's here ❤
I AM SO HAPPY IT CAME OUT, her voice is so Nice and calm I am sooooooo obsessed
I always learn new things, as the MV released when I watch your reaction... Lovin our Sooyaaas debut song..
You are always so spot on with analyzing these MV. It’s sick.
Thanks, Jordan! Now everything in this video makes sense to me and finally I understand why I liked it so much. Amazing work. Totally need to subscribe to your channel!
I never thought to interpret the story in JISOO's music video from the perspective of video production, and it really amazed me. Through the explanation of the camera, I could feel the powerful sense of sadness and confidence even more. JISOO's performance was beautiful, powerful, and infectious!
Her voice addictive.. Once i hear her sang i will repeatedly listen to her voice
Thank you for reacting and being professional and real in reacting to our ultimate bias mother Jisoo yaaaaaa.
Very wholesome and very detailed reaction as always from Jordan. When i watch some Music videos i happen to catch those small details too the effect watching this awesome person makes me a different person and i'm looooving it.😂
People need to see this video in case they're calling video boring and song meaningless. She saw the emotion through spring ig.
Wow this was cool, now i see all details u pointed out, makes me appreciate Jisoo's efforts even more. Thank you!
dude, i wasn't expecting any reaction from you for this m/v (despite of the fact that i ALWAYS wait for your detailed & funny reactions) bcs i thought jisoo's m/v didn't really show any special editing technique/ semiotically deep meaning, but i'm glad you DID. i just realized it all now after watching you. thank you so much for that!! (p.s. i've subscribed😂🫰🏻)
First! Love your videos! You make M/Vs way more interesting! So happy Jisoo finally got her solo! Our QUEEN deserves it
Thank you for your expert inputs. This makes me 100x times more appropriate the hard work and beauty of this master piece. It may not be flashy style like Lisa's or typical YG but it IS beautiful and suit Jisoo the most. Thank you again!
this was so insightful, loved it! I hope you will also react to All Eyes Of Me if she releases a music video for it 😊
I really admire your work. Thanks for this excellent review. Jisoo made an excellent work. I'm so proud 😭❤️
thanks for the break down, otherwise i would never catch those small details which made this mv even more awsome :) this is the most anticipated solo comback of all time!
This is one of my favorite analysis of the song/video, I love the expert input ❤ thank you, it is a masterpiece, thank you princess Jisoo ❤
her moves with the emotions and also sets and colors contrast, her dreamy voice and lyrics all are freaking insane together i love how you show small details in it ….. 🤍
I love your videos and Jisoo deserves this ❤️ you are so funny and make me laugh Keep doing what you’re doing Jordan!!
I loved you reaction! 😂 for me this song was amazing and I was more surprised than I was before I hope Jisoo has the support she deserves because it’s been years and she is the last member to have a solo! ❤
if you like the cuts in dancing watch Knock - Lee Chae Yeon, almost the entire video the editing is focused on the dancing but theres one specific scene thats wonderful in my opinion. You should def check it out :)
Always enjoy your reaction from an editing perspective. Your vid feels educational sometimes, which is niceeeee. :D
I really love the way you explained things and gave your opinions. Your face expressions are pretty funny too 😂
The fact jisoo probably was filming when I was walking around that studio is so baffling! 😻😻😻
Why people saying that jisso's solo is not that good but I think I fall in love with it every time I heard that song it feels better and better every time I am really addicted to it and I really appreciate jisoo's hardwork proud of you jisoo❤
Film cinematography absolutely puts you in a dream field! Great review and analysis as always!
your reactions make me appreciate the music videos more, thank you :)
Jordan, I knew you would be spot on with your breakdown of this video. Lots of emotions, lots of color, sick beat, great lyrics, and awesome editing. My favorite scene is the elevator scene. when she enters she give the gentlemen in the elevator a little " side-eye" and she is clearly annoyed at his presence or something he may have said that we obviously couldn't hear. Jisoo's acting skills are really good.. I guess that's why she won an award for her performance in the series "Snowdrop". You rock dude!
The MV was soo good!! I'm glad you reacted to it 💗
One thing that I noticed in the music video, once Same Day and Same Time Jisoo appears the size of the shot goes full, but when memory Jisoo appears, the shot size is not full and in the corners there resembles a film roll. Yeah I just noticed this after 13 days of the release hahahahaha
Thank you for pointing out that her movements are to the snap beats and it makes it smooth, because from my point of view, I was hearing the other parts and it was messing with my perception of the video, which made it feel sudden. I really love your breakdowns of the music videos, it makes me appreciate the work of the video and the artist more.
Your reactions are so much fun to watch as well as educational
