NO KPOP STANS ARE READY FOR THIS MASTERPIECE!

While Stray Kids’s song Miroh tells us about how they choose to enter a maze, Side Effect tells us about the side effect of entering the maze. In that MV, they’ve gone through some difficulties. they can choose the easier way if they want to (10:00) but this is the way that they choose, even it’s hard. In the chorus you can hear the adlibs “side effects include insomnia, anxiety... etc”, thats the side effect of choosing that way! The story goes on to Stray Kids’s song Double Knot, so if that’s the way they choose to find the key, they have to prepare for it. And then the story goes on to Levanter, all these journey to find the key, but they have to accept the fact that the key is themselves, so they have to let go all their burden. Stray Kids is the music genius, indeed.

Isabelle Channel it’s just a part of their story, the side effect of the journey. They sometimes argue and have a different opinion (like that hyunjin and seungmin part or when hyunjin grabs felix’s shoulder), but at the end of the MV, they’re still together :)

Ahhh. That makes sense. Wow I really be going backwards huh 🤣

in the chorus line if you listen closely there is a voice in the back saying "Common side effects include; nervousness, insomnia, nausea, agitation, anxiety, sweating, vision problems, psychosis, numbness, dizziness, headaches, etc." if you look at the lyrics this song has heavy themes of, what it seems, drugs. the line they all shout at the chorus is "Meori apeuda" (Hope i romanticized that right) which means "My head hurts" and the song is just so interesting. My favorite Stray Kids song 100%

Jeff: Holy crap, Felix's voice Me: ...felt that.....😂

"Am I ready for this?" The answer is no, no one is ever ready

This song was such a bold move in my opinion since it's so different from the usual kpop songs. I love how they make the music they want and don't care about people calling it "noise".

I had to listen to this song multiple times to really get into it but the choreography captured me so I had to watch all the performance videos of it and by the end of it I loved the song, I could listen to them all day anyways, one of my favorite songs is „Voices“ and they also released a performance video for it, it‘s pretty awesome 💕😂

You know it’s a great song when it does that to you!

Love this choreography and song, it has such a deep message and I love it

I love how all of the ripple effects in the choreography express a theme of how actions and circumstances external to you affect your behavior and emotions? It’s like passing one person’s actions on to all of the people around them. It really is such interesting storytelling!

Ugh felix and seungmin in side effects sent them right to the top of my bias list (yes they're my biases now)

Honestly side effects is one of my favourite stray kids songs

no one: the comments: am i ready for this?

This is one of my favourites actually. Happy to see you react to it. I became a Stray Kid fan because of Felix. Just could not believe what I was hearing lol and got curious

The amount of lines and center time seungmin got in this song is the best among stray kids songs. i am so happy he got to shine in this comecack!

SO basically this video is Jeff being Woojin biased and getting biased wrecked by Felix LMAO

No one: Jeff to Felix's voice: "holly crap, his voice!" Same Jeff, same

I don't know if you have noticed, but during the chorus there is a voice saying different side effects, as like, headaches... Etc, I actually don't remember what he is saying but well, I think it's cool

Lots of people really hate this song. But for me this is an art. The songs the rhythm the choreo the way they act the formations. They’re perfect. Stray kids are really bold and brave for releasing this kind of song.

Your overall reaction was so similar to mine it's almost funny. I was also shook by Felix's voice, and the performance, and also the chorus. I think we all were.

Jeff: I thought It was a chill song Me: I'm afraid it's not. None of their songs are chill. They literally stop u from breathing

WHAT I LEARNED IS THAT WE CAN'T EVER EXPECT WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN SKZ SONGS, BY NOW I JUST LET THEM SURPRISE ME AND THIS SONG IDK WHY I LISTEN TO IT EVEN BEFORE SLEEP... IT'S ALSO SURPRISED ME THAT I LOVE THIS GENRE THEY KILLED IT.. AND IT'S SO MEANINGFUL TOO SORRY WITH THE CAPSLOCK HAHA LOVE YOUR REACTION PLS DO MORE STRAY KIDS THANK YOUUU i really love your reaction because you also let out really genius comments too the dance formation ended with everyone on their knees, if you watch levanter dance it started with the end of side effects. also hyunjin on the ground and chan help him out on the mv also the intro of the levanter choreography. genius. my fav from the mv is definitely when felix last meori apeuda before the dance break and they all pose there in the middle of the street with all the thunder on the sky damn

This song is a whole EXPERIENCE

Oh I honestly don’t mind. But we’ll see. Sometimes I need the pinned for something else hehe

This was one of the first songs I reacted to by Stray kids. It blew me away. Just the whole scenery-concept-idea. I was like. They made screaming music and it sounds fire along side their vocals and rapping and elegant formation dancing. Also the My head hurts part where they all just move so disorganized just SPEAKS TO ME ON AN EMOTIONAL LEVEL. I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO STAN.

I love, how he analyzes the mv, the meaning of the song, the choreo and everything, but as soon as it's Woojin's parts, he's just fanboying 🥰

i was blown away wow. stray kids is really an under-appreciated group, esp in kr.

Stray Kids are really one in a million, they are very unique and special for a kpop group. Their essence are "real life themes" despite the fact that they are very young, they always leave a message in their songs about self-esteem, hard work but also dark topics like mental health problems, such an outstanding group!!

The storyline is connected throughout a lot of their mvs. They are searching for a key that represents who they are and what they want to be. A lot of their songs focus on identity and in the storyline they are trying to find the key to their identity. In Levanter they realize that the key is themselves and that they have to accept themselves in order to find who they truly are. If you watch the mvs in chronological order while reading the lyrics it makes more sense. Also I'm glad that Side Effects got reacted to, it's my favorite song from them!

the choreography and how it ties in with the meaning of the song is what made me love side effects. it’s feels like everything is carefully thought through to really drive the message home and i find that really satisfying

If you see their choreography, it all matches with the lyrics and concept. As they said on chorus: “머리 아프다” or “my head hurts”, that’s why the dance will make you dizzy to represent it.

I really like how they coreographed this by themselves

a major theme of the song is about people changing and how depending on who youre talking to you act different, and that they fear changing as it happens, i think hyunjin was on the ground, because the bridge is about how being overconfident on the outside and how you can overdose on all the bravado, and i think the ending part is about him having overdosed on all that false confidence (as the visual he has struggled with people assuming he only made it or would make it because he’s pretty, something that actually made him work harder but it could be a reference to that) and i think the theme overall is about how people change and how its confusing, one of the lines they were chanting translates to “my head hurts” which could be about how all of this change and what translates to “baseless confidence” is confusing and painful

This song is really ‘mysterious’ in a way. Some people like it, some people don’t. This song is one of the most hated stray kids song, everyone started to say their music is just random noises. I don’t think you noticed it but in the chorus is really cool how you can hear “common side effects include nervousness, insomnia, nausea, agitation, anxiety, sweating, vision problems, psychosis, numbness, dizziness, headaches, weight loss” which I think it’s connected to the choreography.

This is by far my favourite Stray Kids choreo. It may not be the hardest but I find it very powerful. They did a remix of the song and choreo for the MBC The Live end of year show.

side effects is such a performance song like omg the dance and visual representation of the song is insane

Yes!! I'm still shook by Felix's voice every time I hear it! haha I feel ya! 😜💕

“(The choreo)fits the concept, which is basically mind-fked” EXACTLY

I’m just happy theyre brave enough to try Psychedelic Trance as a genre tbh... they utilized and executed the genre very well.. theyre truly genius

I've been waiting for this one !!! So excited !!!

This song, from my understanding, is about anxiety. The main line they say during the chorus translates to "my head hurts." Near the end, felix says it again, while putting his hand against his face, as you would do if you had a headache. Then when the beat drops, there's a voice that's listing off all the "side effects" of anxiety medication (like nausea, nervousness, headaches, etc). The choreography and instrumentals matches well with the lyrics, like you said it feels like it's messing with your brain

so side effects is from their mini album clé 2: yellow wood, relating back to a poem by Robert frost, road not taken and how “two roads diverged at a yellow wood”. basically in the mv it’s showing how, because they didn’t listen to the governmental system that was giving them all the side effects (if you watch the district 9 MV you’ll understand who the governmental system is), it was a harder road to take but in the end they were happier because of it. all of stray kid’s main mv‘s tie into their storyline. this particular song’s main phrase, mori apeuda, means my head hurts, and after it side effects are literally said while the main instrumentals are played after the beat drop. things like anxiety, nervousness, nausea, insomnia, etc. are listed as side effects. district 9, hellevator, levanter, miroh, side effects, i am YOU, astronaut, i am NOT, and my pace are all part of the storyline! they’ve had the story since pre-debut. there are tons of theories out there as to what it’s about, but only chan himself can really tell us what he’s thinking lmao

I was waiting for this. It's one of my favorite stay kids songs. They really emphasize the lyrics with the dance and vice versa. I can't get enough it goes so well.

The walking at the very end is the intro for levanter, Hyunjin is on the ground and then stands up just like in the MC and they key is from double knot.

Except for fangirling, everyone was left speechless when they watch side effects. It's a normal reaction

One of the best Stray Kids' reaction I've seen. I love how you focus and appreciate every detail of their vids.

Something I’ve always loved about Stray Kids is that every single song they have is different, yet still so distinctly Stray Kids. That goes for their choreography and dance styles as well. Each member’s voice is distinct and easily isolated, and each member’s dance style is easy to tell. If you’re interested in another Stray Kids song that did something different, I would maybe consider checking out Miroh. They incorporated haka into the dance and it’s really beautiful. I don’t know how familiar you are with haka, but I would love to see your opinion on it! And no pressure or anything, I love all the videos you put out :)

3:34 The gulp gulps are my favorite part :)

thank you so much for reacting to this!! It's one of my favorite choreographies in kpop,, it's such a shame the song gets hated on so much cuz of the chorus :/

i'm happy you think it's a good change in kpop, because many people said that this song was too heavy, not public friendly, or was just noise.

Because they have creativity, and they have a message to convey.

My favourite song by straykids along with easy. It’s so unique and i’m sad that not many people like it.

The more i watch more of their MV,i begin to realize this group is filled with talent.I love all their songs

Love the way u smile when u saw Woojin The best thing we can give him …

yesss you did it!!

If you listen closely you'll hear a male voice reading out the common side effect of medications. The song is about being trapped in your head and they're literally shouting "my head hurts". My interpretation was that the song is about anxiety and taking medication to relieve it. This is pretty well reflected in the music (slower paced when calm and then fast when anxious), the choreography also does a similar thing.

Seeing Seungmin and Hyunjin fight is actually really funny because they've talked about how they're really close and Seungmin is the only member of skz that Hyunjin has never fought with

I've been stanning for over a year and I'm still not over Felix's voice 😍🤧 I freaking swear. Your reactions are so relatable, like your "am I ready for this" at the beginning, I felt that 😂

The masterpiece, the beautiful masterpiece!!! 👏👏👏👏 SIDE EFFECTS THE QUEEN 👑

All of their music videos link up somehow! I could list thousands of theories STAY have had but a couple of the main ones are related to the two moons,elevators and possible members being clones. They also use Keys and Conpasses a lot in the MVs so there’s the theory of them travelling in different AUs and getting lost and trying to find each other

There is a whole storyline connecting all their music videos and comeback trailers - it all quite mysterious :D. There are a few videos on youtube trying to explain their theories but nothing is really confirmed and I think it's nice to have your own theory about it 😊

Omg watching side effects when you're not really sober hits completely different lmao I've never been this shook in my entire life wtf

I really like your reaction 🥺💕

Love your reaction.... Always

YES A SIDE EFFECT REACTION I WAS WAITING FOR THIS OOOONE

me watching dis at november 18 me : yall bias woojin? well he left skz and im now a ot 8

If you feel like this song fucks up your mind, then you kind of got the point. Or atleast i think that's what they meant to potray in that video. The flickering lights, the dispersed move on part of the choreo, the black and white attires. It's kind of amazing how they can depict all those messed up feelings in one single music video and song :)

There's always someone left out in Stray Kids music videos I find. There is always someone out of it and the other members are trying to help them out. In this one it was Hyunjin.

The key at the end is a reference to the title of the mixtape. Clé is the french word for key ^^ ( you can actually see keys is the double knot music video too)

The yellow filter is because the album is called "YELLOWOOD", and it's kind of based on road not taken poem.. It's depicts two scenarios, one if they had taken the bus and other if they had not.. We can relate it to other stuffs like drugs and all...

Loved your video!!! Thank you for the French subs also!
