They did make the sexiness very overt intentionally, and you hit the meaning on the head. It’s about something you love that consumes you. Bangchan really hints at that when he talks about setting the mic up. They did very intentional things with the visuals, while the message is still there. And I’m almost positive they used ‘sticky’ when they were doing song camp for this. In this trio of unit songs, (all have a howl in harmony episode), there is Surfin’ - Changbin, Lee know and Felix, and Gone Away (Han, Seungmin and I.N). I love them all, and the contrast is… wow.

The contrast and variety is insane and unique. But I agree, Howl in Harmony was an eye opener in how they make their songs but also explained more behind this one and I appreciated it, gave me that more understanding into the meaning. Another amazing way of their instrumentals being layered and building, and the vocals and dancing, stunning as always.

Red light is made only by bangchan and hyunjin! And both of them explained about the meaning behind of the lyrics. They're both r&b music lovers, they working on songs together the most. They said red light is about OBSESSION with their work,, it could be another part of ourselves,they make artistic deep dark mv and ofc it's most sexy and different song by skz !! It's best ever smth that is fantastic perfect in everything and their chemistry was phenomenal. Hyunjin wrote lyrics with chan some eng part translated by chan ,chan once said everything hyunjin makes is sexy. There ate also a lot of songs they make tgt but still we didn't heard them yet :(

You’re actually right, the song is about being obsessed with yourself/narcissism and also obsessed with perfectionism in their craft

I feel like if you are going to react to these unit songs (Red Lights, Gone Away, Surfin' from the Thunderous Album), you should watch their behind the scenes series they did for them (Howl in Harmony) It goes into the song details and meanings and other fun stuff. Doesn't have to be a public video, but I think too many people focus on Red LIghts being a Sexy song by appearance and not the overall intention/meaning they intended with it (Edit: I'm lowkey impressed you managed to hit the nail just about on the head for the actual meaning). Its supposed to be about the compulsion behind being a workaholic basically. Its like Silent Cry, sexy dance moves, but the lyrics are deep as hell. Also, they do an OT8 version of this song for their tour, definitely worth checking out, between Minho and Changbin its damaging.... (Personal Opinion)

Absolutely, Howl in Harmony gave me a new appreciation for the song with what they really are talking about and the message in the song. And yeah… I’ve seen clips of OT8 version… deadly… but I still want to be able to listen to it 24/7 lol

Red Lights is one of the 3 unit songs of NOEASY album, and actually they showed all the behind producing process as ‘song camp’ contents. Ep. 3 is Bang Chan Hyunjin discussing about what song to make, turned out to be Red Lights. Since you’ve checked out one of the one of the unit songs, I recommend to check out the others. Ep.1 ‘Gone Away’ with Han Seungmin I.N, Ep.2 ‘Surfin’’ with Lee Know, Changbin, Felix. Ep.4 is about they briefing each concept to the MV director. These ‘Song Camp’ contents came out before the release, so you can watch them before checking out the actual songs, the actual music won’t get spoiled.

they did a mini series called (Howl in Harmony) it has 5 episodes, so for the album NO EASY they did 3 unit songs and the mini series is about each unit going to a song camp to create their unit song. episode 1 is (Gone Away) team (Han, Seungmin, I.N), episode 2 is (Surfin) team (Lee Know, Changbin, Felix), episode 3 is (Red Lights) team (BangChan, Hyunjin), episode 4 is all of them coming together and showing each other what they've prepared and deciding on their mv concepts, and finally episode 5 is the mv shooting bts. I think listening to the songs then watching the show will be great for you guys since the songs are bangers and the show is fun.

I second this comment. Bang Chan and Hyunjin go through their brainstorming on cam, and they do explain the concept quite in detail, and it is indeed about personal addiction to work/work ethics, just like you guessed!

You actually hit the nail on the head with the meaning they were going for, really loved your reaction to it (bonus points for the masks, really added dimension the reaction hahaha). Would love to see your reaction to the other unit songs of this album, Surfin' (Lee Know, Changbin & Felix) & Gone Away (Han, Seungmin & I.N)!

I think you hit it on the head with how they used sexy as a metaphor for their struggles with their work ethic and need/obsession/compulsion. They talked about how they work even when they should probably take more rest time and Bangchan has talked with us before about his troubles with insomnia ... and of course they are freaking perfectionists in the best possible way. They work all time and even if they love it, they can see how it can become unhealthy - but they can't live without it. "I cannot breathe ..."

As u said red light is too perfect that u can't focus on specific parts cuz their vocals, chemistry, acting,style, melody, production and guitar everything was best!! There's no song in kpop that could compare with this! But still we need appreciate their vocals and their musicians working. Hyunjin is main dancer and rapper but listening to his vocals here is absolutely gorgeous and everything and chan vocals Specially his deep range of vocals is incredible, unexpected but these 2 are perfectly suited for this song and their harmonies was everything,, my fav song forever. It's like dream

you are 100% correct, by the way. there are a lot of people who reduce this song to JUST "sexy" tho, unfortunately. this song and concept and the depth to it, especially with the lyrics and meaning and metaphors in the mv combined, is INCREDIBLE.

The mirroring of their dance and the deep intent gazes into actual mirrors show two parts of one person fighting for control. I love the commitment of Chan and Hyunjin to this MV. I love this song so much!!!

On Howl In Harmony: Song Camp, they show them working on the song from the base track. Hyunjin says within FIVE seconds that it reminds him of 50 Shades of Gray. They also suggested the chains and suits for the MV. But strictly speaking, the song is about compulsion, specifically their struggle for perfection--no matter how exhausted they are, they're minds won't let them rest, hence the line 'No matter how hard I try to run away, set the mic up'. But they also demanded that the video be SEXY (underlined it and everything).

The lyrics for Red Lights and also for Taste were (mostly) written by Hyunjin. Both songs are WAY more adult-themed than the usual Stray Kids songs. Also, both are about obsessive relationships, but Red Lights is about the toxic side / the duality of obsession. It can also be interpreted as being about a kind of dark internal struggle.

red light is about obsession with work.

you guys just GET skz and their ethic and intentions its so HARD to find people that see that more than just "hype/firr" (Which they ARE) but i just appreciate it it so muxh especially from professionals you guys ROCK i just know chan has seen your videos he watches EVERYTHING

I'm so impressed by how fast you picked up that this song was about obsession with their job and not being able to stop even when it's bad for you

It’s about Obsession ❤

you got the vibe and feeling about the song completely correct, thats exactly how hyunjin and chan described it with the push and pull feeel

Stickiness just like snail hahhahhaha 😂

Bangchan and Danceracha songs Lee knows Drive, Hyunjins Red Lights and I hear FNF off the new 5⭐️ album is Felix's turn.

the fact that you two reacted to this in NACIFIC face masks just made my day!!! i need a before/after "red lights" face reveal so bad haha. Edit* also to my eyes I see this as the start of a trilogy - not confirmed, just in my own mind, and namely b/c Hyunjin has his hand in making all of these. It starts with "Red Lights" then "Taste" and finally "DLMLU (don't let me love you)". I don't know if it -will- but I really hope to see this trend of Hyunjin/r&b-ness extend into their 5 Star Album in June!!

you're so right about them complementing each other so well , we say hyunchan is a dangerous combination to have , they have this whole teacher and student relationship as in when hyunjin wanted to start writing and producing he went to chan to learn , they always make music together and its either sexy or depressing, hyunjin is a very talented writer as in he after 3racha is the one that wrote most songs , anyways they used to perform this in concerts with all 8 of them singing , red lights is such a bop

The analysis is on point. The sensual side is just a cover, the song is about obsession, toxic relations, greed for perfection. In this song, it's about Chan and Hyunjin's relation with their art. Obsessed with making music and obsessed with perfecting the dance. I am pretty sure they represent both the sides of a single person, gaining and losing control and the continuous battle of dominance to the extent that it's lethal.

“feel like the baby now 😂” i love ur reaction and hyping the kids so much! ❤

Red Lights actually has a great discussion from Hyunjin and Bang Chan about it: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nGalurizm5XHoMo.html. A lot of people tend to focus on how sexy it is, but you're right, there's another meaning there, too, and it often gets overlooked.

Y'all should react to the other unit songs which are: 'Gone Away' by Seungmin, Han, and I.N, and 'Surfin' by Lee Know, Felix, and Changbin.

nailed it, guys, with the deeper meaning

This is why I like your commentary you can understand the language well. You exactly hit the meaning of it, they did an episode about making the song and talked about it there. I am happy to hear that the song can actually be interpreted they way Hyunjin and Bang Chan wrote it, yes it may sound sexual but the meaning is way deeper than that. I really enjoy your Stray Kids reactions can't wait for you to hear more from them. 😁

Cant get enough of your faces with the mszk on 🤣 Love your videos

You nailed that promo section😆 and I am somehow still in disbelief you hadn't reacted to Redlights... Thank you for the reaction

I love how well you understand Stray Kids 😊. Your interpretation was almost word for word what Hyunjin and Bangchan said they were trying to say with Red Lights. If you are interested, in one of the Skz shows called Song Camp : Howl in Harmony, you can see Skz separate into 3 units and how each unit created their song. Red Lights is in Ep3, but all the episodes are so much fun. I love seeing anything about their creative process and dynamics. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nGalurizm5XHoMo.html&feature=share

I think it's really about obsession, but an obsession that kind of locks you into it, restraining every aspect of your life so you have to dedicate yourself to it. Bangchan is famously known for suffering insomnia due to working into late so his obsession for music while Hyunjin had the same thing woth dance, dedicating a lot of time to it when people said he was not that good a long time ago.

First time I associate handsome with your two lol Thanks Nacific❤

Hahaha, love the reaction! This song is so good, the masks were a good touch

It is really worth talking a watch of their Camp Howl in Harmony series. It shows some of the process behind the three subunit tracks from the NoEasy album. Of course it was edited and they obviously did lots more work than was shown on camera, but you do get to watch and listen to them brainstorming a bit and get a sense of their working processes. They also show a bit of them working with the video directors and filming those.

OMG IM SO HAPPY YOU GUYS GOT A COLLAB WITH NACIFIC - but ngl the face masks scared the sh*t out of me when i clicked on the video I thought your face was peeling like a banana lmaooo

Its like you watched howl in harmony. Because you hit the nail on its head. Unlike so many you quickly saw this song is deep and that they used the sexy vibe and the stickiness. Yeah..just nailed it. Heyday or Red lights? Red lights for me!!

Your reactions and analysis for SKZ is so good 🔥 Thanks for reacting!! 💖🫶🏻

Exactly it's about obsession they have with work 😊

With red light u guys saw new side of skz and Specially new side of bangchan and hyunjin!! So I hope u more attention to their vocals! Even tho hyunjin usually has short lines and more rap but his vocals is gorgeous, chan has beautiful vocals range ! So I suggest my another fav track " the veiw " from NOEASY ( same album as red light) it has beautiful mv. It starting with hyunjin singing rapping,,

How did it take you THIS LONG to react to this!?!?!??? Glad you FINALLY did this one!😃its freaking FIRE🔥🔥🔥🔥🎶✌

You hit the meaning right on the head, they both have said it’s about an obsession, something they can’t put down. They did do a version with all 8 members too for the concerts. Bang Chan and Hyunjin did phenomenal.

I know it may hard for you to upload more videos, but I would love to watch more of your SKZ reactions. I always check your channel. I hope I can see more videos frequently in the future 😍 Thanks for your interest in Skz 🫶

i think in their recent japanese album The Sound, Hyunjin wrote a song that feels similar to Red Lights called DLMLU, I think you guys should check it out! It also has sick guitar and underlying messages of restraint rather than the sexiness people might think of it upon first listen!

You truly "get" SKZ music and I will forever be grateful for your reactions 🧡

Hey did a song camp "Howl in Harmony" and the group divided into 3 subunits and in it you see Hyunjin and Chan work on the song, explain it and make the video, etc. (and you see this for all the groups). It is interesting and fun to watch series of 3-4 videos.

I heard it was super sexy, but when I watched it, once I saw them trying to run, crawl, and fight against the things that were binding them, it became more of a song about struggle.

There pretty much is a definitive answer if you watch their series 'Howl in harmony' where the two work on this song along with the others in 2 groups of 3 work on theirs. But you pretty much nailed it with your comments...but they wanted it to come across sexy lol. Great short series...worth the watch!

1:28 might be one of the funniest things I ever seen. This is how you promote a product. 10/10... But you were still not ready for Red Lights. Amazing reaction.

you can watch “howl in harmony” which are the behind episodes for the unit songs on the full album noeasy they explain the thought process behind each unit song

I would bet that someone already mentioned it but watch their series ‘Howl in Harmony’ ep 3 is Chan and Hyunjin starting the process (eps 1&2 are the other groups each got an episodic) - eps 4 is them coming together and MV talk and ep 5 is them shooting the videos - these were done pretty much right after Hyunjin’s hiatus - its some insight that should help your understanding/thoughts in the song :)

GONE AWAY ( han, seungmin,IN) , SURFIN ( leeknow, changbin,felix) These are the song the rest of the units did. Check it out if possible.

you are incredibly on point with your analysis, love it as always, please never stop analysing skz songs

Your way of analysing is absolutely gorgeous. I strive to be as well articulated as you guys are.

Wow you nailed that theme breakdown. Everyone just focuses on the sexy overlay. I watch a LOT of SKZ reactions and you guys are my favorite! Hilarious and thoughtful at the same time. I love you two ❤️

haha you really understood the meaning of the song quite quickly (I personally couldn't do the same, I have to admit I wasn't really thinking while watching the MV the first 100 times) anyway, there's a video where they're actually talking about the song in "How in harmony"

Okay so I never stayed for the outro and now I regret it. The way you pronounce the names was sooo funny! Haha Now, Red Lights mv is and will forever be one of my favorite mv’s.

7:30 what you got from the mv is exactly what they described as they were coming up with this song (on song camp). It's amazing how intuned you were with the message. I've seen a lot of Reactors who understand generally what the song is about but none that explained it like they watched HyuneChan talking about. 😊 Amazing

If you guys like the sexy vibe to this song you should check out Monsta X! Bangchan adores them and they are considered “Beast Idols” and not afraid to make sexy songs. Bangchan has even reacted to them on his lives.

Nacific sponsorship?! Congratulations!!!

Oh my word!! I love this breakdown… you were spot on! It is a sexy song but then obsession is sexy… it’s dark and obsessive and seductive.

Re: the actual video though, yes I think you guys were definitely on the right track. The song is about a toxic obsession and is framed in the "fifty shades" type genre, but it's really a metaphor for their work and the sacrifices they make. The clearest example in the lyrics is 'No matter how hard I try to run away, set the mic up / Until the moon falls asleep, even deeper' which is pretty directly related to Chan's obsession with making music and well-storied troubles with insomnia and working rather than sleeping. As someone else mentioned, the Howl In Harmony "song camp" videos show them discussing and writing the song and they explain it a little more!
