subscibe! if you want. no prssure though. but like, it'd kinda be dope 🫡

The four characters each means: Joy, anger, sadness and pleasure. In the MV, the emotions are in a fight and Each time, one character fades out (meaning that this emotion has lost the battle). At the end, there is only one character/emotion left and wins which is pleasure. (correct me if i’m wrong but these are what i recall from changbin’s explanation in the intro)

喜 means Happy 怒 means Angry 哀 means Sad 樂 means Joyful / Pleasure

This mv talks about all the emotions those kids felt when they are on stage, 喜 = Happy, 怒 = Angry, 哀 = sadness, 樂 = Pleasure and this character is pronounced as 'lak' or 'rak' that sound like rock. It's double meaning with pleasure and rock, that's why the theme is rock n roll. So those different sets portray different emotions such as pirates as anger (that's why at the early part of the mv you can see pirates who are dancing have red eyes), clown set represent happy (they literally playing with the clown), the white set with ashes as sadness ( it's calm and sad) and the last set where changbin's part start is pleasure or 'lak/rock' ( the theme is all rock, you can see guitar everywhere). They are all represent what is happening inside 8 of children's mind when they are on stage like disney movie 'INSIDE OUT'. as the kid performing on the stage, these characters disappear one by one and left only pleasure or 'lak/rock'. And at the end scene of the mv you can see all the emotion from different set dance together at the pleasure or 'lak/rock' set representing the last emotion they felt when perfoming is pleasure or excitement. Hope this help :)

In the intro they said this song was actually meant to be a b-side for 5 stars album... my reaction watching to that moment was like "are these guys crazy??"🧍‍♀and everyone say thank you to Changbin for suggesting to this song to be the title song 🙏🏽

the last chorus was shot with a drone because they wanted to fit all of the backup dancers too the attention to detail in this mv is crazy and the energy is so high!! Stray Kids keep on improving every single comeback and i still can't fathom how it's possible to do that the letters are joy, anger, sorrow and pleasure and the first 3 disappear one by one until only pleasure survives the rock-star intro is very helpful for this!

Stray Kids can give self confidence with their songs. Listening to the song, you want to go and live your best life

Do you guys remember when JYP just gave them a selfie stick and left them on the streets to film their music vids? 😳

the kids are younger versions of straykids, so their younger versions are scared,nervous , have stage fright(the monster). As they grow older and perform more, the fright and nervousness dissolves( the monster dissolves) and the only thing left is joy in performing. That's Minho's theory that he said in the reaction video,which I think seems accurate.

Something I've noticed is SKZ relies on camera movements to highlight their dancing a lot. They did it with the S-Class challenge and they did it here. I think it's incredible how something like that can make their already wonderful dancing even better. I can't wait for the rest of the album

Their MV always on another level!

I really love the word play Stray Kids do in their song. 樂 meaning joy/pleasure and the reading of it sounds like Rock and they add bunch of other words that sounds like it like Luck. 3RACHA Geniuses!

The kids are a representation of them (there are 8 kids) and it shows all the emotions they have had to battle since becoming a group. Its truely amazing. They are now in a space where pleasure wins above all and that is the emotion they want to have when creating their music. 🎉

Jordan, everytime Stray Kids release a new music video, I only think about you.

Stray kids M/Vs are so out of the box and unique. Thank u Jordan for breaking it down for us

Jordan alternating between gawking with his mouth open and hardcorr vibing/headbanging is every Stay's reaction to the MV. It's a masterpiece!

I watched every scene with my mouth open, stray kids are still top level

The moment I saw the mv I needed Jordan to react to it 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

Stray Kids went CRAZY with Lalalala 😭💛 The MV is incredible. The four characters you see are Joy, Anger, Sadness and Pleasure. We're actually inside the children heads. They are performing and anxious about it. The monster is that anxiousness. But the more time pass and the more the characters slowly disappear leaving only Pleasure at the end ! (At least that's what i understood and the boys more or less confirmed it!) Like Bangchan said: Just ENJOY ok?

THIS SONG SLAPS KILLS SLAYS LITERALLY IM SO SHOOK HOW CAN IT BE THAT GOOD

喜 is happy 怒 is angry 哀 is sad 樂 pleasure all emotions start fading/disappearing through the music video and only pleasure stays by the end of the song because that is what the song is expressing actually each song on the album represents a specific emotion :)

His reaction for skz "LALALALA" was so early 🤣 I always wait for Jordan to react in kpop MV's

LALALALA is so WELL MADE.

They’re four Chinese characters 喜（joy）怒（anger）哀（sadness)楽（happiness）,respectively pronounced Xi,Nu,Ai,Le

The repetitive refrain, "La-la-la-la-la," represents the indescribable feeling and experience of being immersed in the rock genre. It serves as an invitation to let go and fully embrace the music. The line "Just feel the rock" emphasizes the physical and emotional sensation that rock music can evoke. It encourages listeners to let themselves be carried away by the pulsating rhythm and energy of the music. When the lyrics mention "We let it rock" and "Feel the tune, rock, rock, rock," it suggests that the band members and the listeners are actively participating in the powerful influence of rock music. The idea of "rocking" represents not only enjoying the music, but also embracing the freedom and liberation that comes with it. The phrase "Till you go crazy, la, la, la, la" reflects the idea that one should surrender themselves to the music, letting go of inhibitions and becoming consumed by the euphoria it brings. Overall, "락 (樂) (LALALALA)" celebrates the transcendent power of music, specifically rock, to uplift spirits, ignite passion, and create a sense of unity among listeners. It encourages individuals to let loose and revel in the joyous experience of allowing oneself to be swept away by the infectious energy and rhythm of music.

They have the best MVs and STRAYKIDS EVERYWHERE ALL AROUND THE WORLD!

Jordan never fails to entertain… and to inform while genuinely having fun with K-pop

I love when stray kids make new songs there always lit

The kids are actually Straykids themselves but when they were younger. If you count there are 8 kids and eight members. Straykids is relaying the memories of stage fright and getting over that.

Jordan is literally me I’m was so shocked they ate like how many letters are in LALALALA!!!??!????? STRAY KIDS EVERYWHERE ALL AROUND THE WORLD YOU MAKE STRAY KIDS STAY!!!!!!

So i believe the characters represent the emptions referenced the very first teaser, and how the kids are vanquishing the emotiona during their performance, each emotion being onw of the large giant figures that dissolve

This was by far my fav MV ever! Composed, edited, and directed SO WELL!

Now this is what I call reacting: funny, educational, goofy and more. Perfect dude.

Jordan’s facial expressions are everything.

Their MVs have been INSANE!!❤😮 SO FUCKIN’ proud of SKZ (Stray Kids)

i love how all of us (stays) watch the video proudly like we were the ones who edited it 😭

"Stuff happens." -Jordan Orme, A Pro Editor Music Video

THIS SONG WAS A MASTERPIECE

stray kids never disappoints with anything, they just keep getting better and better.

8:54 totally agree! And Lee Know also said that this song and goes from 0 to 100 then to 200 like it just keeps building up!

The kids represent them pre debut and how they felt and at the end when skz is looking at the kids with the 🤟 its actually showing them pre debut skz mv are the best and have some if the best meaningful lyrics

STRAY KIDS NUNCA DECEPCIONA 🔥🔥🔥

Can we all agree that the new song has a low key different vibe but its SOOO GOOD

3:14 325 is their debut date (march 25th)

The song and the MV is so holistic. They are literally expressing a whole concept omg

WAKING UP AND SEEING JORDAN HAS ALREADY UPLOADED THIS REACTION AHHH BEST FEELING

jordan with my EXACT reaction to changbin rap

“But at least the bad guys’ dissolving, that gives me hope” 😭😭

Straykids really meant it when they said STRAYKIDS EVERYWHERE ALL AROUND THE WORLD this song just pushes so many boundaries and is AMAZING

Stray kids are always at another level

As always never failed to explain the meaning of SKZ MV. 😍

BRUH!!!!! I was clapping and jumping so hard at your reactions cause its just spot on to the energy this music video gives you. Like HAHAHA OMG!!! I love your reaction videos, literally my most favorite reaction youtuber right here!!

8:17 LMFAO I LOVE YOU FOR THIS 😭😭 ITS SO RELATABLE WHAT HELP

The song give me the God Menu and S Class vibes

it's inside out animation, these are all chaotic emotions of the kids (in the band of "8" on stage), one lost at a time, in the end, pleasure/joy (which has the same character as sound/music) remains triumphed

The beat drop when it hits "Just feel the rock!" is just so SO SO good

4:11 as a Chinese/hong kong stay,樂= pleasure/喜=joy/哀=sadness/怒=anger but fr tho I’m really happy that they did some Chinese characters in the mv

This MV is insane. I absolutely love it. The song, the beat, the rap, the melody, the singing, the choreography, the outfits, the plot line, everything is so good and I always look forward to your reactions to SKZ! Love your reaction! God bless!

喜 - joy, delight 怒 - anger 哀 - sorrow 樂 - happiness, joy

No way I would have noticed HALF of these details without your help! I love your energy and joy. Your expert analysis is impressive. Thank you for helping me enjoy this music video even more!

I can't seem to stop replaying the music video, it's driving me crazy.😭💗

When the mv dropped I was like. "I'm not sleeping until Jordan makes a video about it" SAUR- Perfect timing :)

THIS MV WAS SO GOOD OMG 😻

As a person who would love to work in movie editing section, thank you!! I love that song and MV SO MUCH!

I love Jordan’s videos they make you appreciate the MV so much more after he goes into the fine details that you only notice if someone points out! ❤

Those are the characters for joy, anger, sadness and pleasure. One by one they disappear until only pleasure remains.

Stray kids never disappoint 🤟🏻 love your reactions

WHU IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HIS AMAZING DANCE MOVES AT THE END

Their are four emotions in this MV Joy, anger, pleasure, sorrow. The point of the emotions is to show how to enjoy music, the story is that 8 kids are performing, the 8 kids represent skz. They have to perform Infront of people. Each outfit represents a different emotions. At the end only pleasure is left. Every single emotion disappears only leaving pleasure the performance of the kids go well and only pleasure is left. The monsters and the other emotions are destroyed. The last chores was filmed with over 150 people and a drone was used to show every single bg dancer. The choreography takes a lot of effort. They filmed on 4 different sets. And the ship is real and they actually built it. Skz and SKZJII (their staff) put in efforts of many days to creat this. Most of this is real and not CGI but some is. A robbery is not happening, it shows a mind of children when performing and feeling different emotions. This song was put out to show how to enjoy music to the fullest.

Perdón pero son los mejores, nunca jamás ví un grupo que haga lo que ellos hacen y probablemente no haya, por qué el concepto que tienen ellos es distinto a cualquiera, su mentalidad es diferente, el mejor mv de sus carreras es esta🎉

The people who make the VFX effect love Stray Kids.

There is nothing as good as stray kids title track in kpop after this one!!!Changbin,Thanks for selecting this as a title track. Also those who don't know stray kids write,produce,distributes their own songs!!!

Jordan is about to start learning Korean so he can understand everything now. From lyrics to text in the videos. And it's gonna be epic, just watch

Raise your hands who loves Jordan❣️✋🏻

Bro...stray kids is my drugs....I'm getting hype everytime their songs played

I love it when jyp idols make mvs about supporting children it’s just so wholesome.

СПАСИБО ЗА ЭТУ КРУТУЮ РЕАКЦИЮ НА БРОДЯЧИХ ДЕТЕЙ! 🤌🏽❤️‍🔥

When Han said "Bet you never seen a stage like this," he meant it.

The map is a brain. The right side (creativity, more specifically expression) intends to invade the left side (logic, more specifically analytical thinking), all related to stage fright. We can also note that "Anger" calls "analytical thinking" a "bank", suggesting it feeds on it. Also note that in addition to their meaning others have pointed out, the characters in the background disappear in a certain order that is relevant to the story progression.

The first character to dissolve is Anger 怒 with 喜 Happiness right after the bomb explosion, followed by 哀 Sorrow/Sadness, leaving only 樂 (Music/Comfort/Pleasure it differs depending on the language) It's a play on words because it can be read as "raku" (at least in Japanese) which sounds a lot like "ROCK". I'm not familiar with Chinese but I know the variation of 樂 in Japanese would be 楽 which looks similar (minus a few radicals) and this character is used in reference to both music and comfort/peace/without hardship. So in the end, they're freely expressing themselves without constraints through music?? I also wanna mention that they're probably referencing Pirates of the Caribbean, The Dark Knight, and Mad Max, and then a white stage that I haven't quite figured out what that's about. All four locations/universes are most likely associated with or represent one of the four characters (you can see them in the background of their respective locations).

Thank you for the thoughtful reaction, this was CRAAAZYYYY

SO FAST LOL I'M EXCITED

I was waiting for this reaction bc I knew Jordan would flip out over the insane transitions and editing and ofc the banger that LALALALA is 😂

This song reminds us how chaotic it was to make k-pop songs for example the dust giant guy stands for horror so oddinary ,the bank getting robbed case 143 how? We’re robbing their hearts, the white dice to remind of social path, the under water part was their pre debut album since it sinks deep in their hearts ,the bus district nine, the part where han says “joy,anger,sadness,pleasure” repersents gods menu, the kids is how much their dreams been crushed since they were younger but thanks to stays they gained power to be one and only stray kids and the last part is rockstar (for a bonus stays are the clowns 🤡)

THIS SONG IS CRAZY, FULL SKZ STYLE

How the hell were you so fast on this one?!?! 😂 must be the power of skz

not even 1 minute till the video started and his mouth dropped. THE POWER

The first character to disappear is "Angry", then "Happy", and finally "Sad", leaving only "Pleasure". As said in Stray Kids' MV reaction video, this is probably meant to symbolize how they used to have all of these emotions while performing, while now, they only feel the pleasure. Also, the character for "Pleasure" (which I can't type bc I don't know what keyboard, and even if I did, I don't know what to type on it lol) is in the title of the album this song is in, the album being called "(insert character for "Pleasure")-STAR. If you want to search for the album in English, its English name is "ROCK-STAR".

the four characters each mean : joy, anxiety, sadness and pleasure. In the MV the emotions are figghting among each other within the kids and each time (usually around the chorus) on character fades signifieing that that emotion lost the battle. At the end only the character left is "pleasure". the mv shoes the clash of emotions inside the little kids cus preforming in front of people can get really nerve wrecking but at the end the kids finish their preformance and they seem happy and enjoyed it so thats why only the character "pleasure remains". also i think the kids represent each of the skz memeber since there are 8 kids and 8 memebers and the giant monster is fear/nervousness. :D 🤘🤘ROCKSTAR

They're releasing a docuseries and from what we can guess it's going to be a whole lot of behind the scenes for the mv shoot.

The editing of La4 made my jaw drop! One of my favorites MVs ever if not favorite (which says a lot because Stray Kids' editors set the bar high). Not to mention the song is super catchy

the district 325 written on the bus is indeed a reference to district 9 (their official debut MV) but also 325 is the day they debuted (march 25th)

The reaction i've been waiting for since the mv dropped

The mv is insane

So bassically it means [order wise ] 1 anger 2 happy 3 pleasure 4 sad i think

I seriously LOVE your reactions. A lot of “editor reactions” will tell us about the cameras they use or effects but you actually dive deeper and pay attention to the actual details and symbolism going on in the music video and how those effects/editing/camera work helps make that happen. I think you’re like the first person that upon first watch understood that in the end it was all about the kids stage fright. I’ve seen maybe one or two people notice upon second watch. Your reactions are always so original and help me notice details I didn’t before. Not gonna lie, I haven’t been on top of your videos and just watch them occasionally, but I’m officially binging all the ones I haven’t seen from the groups I love rn lol. Keep it up Jordan!

The second the MV was released, I was like; I can’t wait for Jordan to react to this. I’m not disappointed :D Don’t quote me on this, but basically: The kids are stray kids as children and that’s when they had their first performance. The frames basically switch between the real stray kids and the literal stray kids and show how they changed and how slowly but surely their anger disappeared, then their joy, then their sadness, till only their pleasure remained. And all this happened through their performances. Uhm yeah this is a hypothesis made after watching the MV, then watching Stray Kids’ reaction to the MV. note: I say anger, joy, sadness and pleasure because those are the characters that slowly disappear (except pleasure, which stays)

I MV degli Stray Kids sono sempre di un altro livello... grazie per la reaction!

I love the sentence: it’s just Sth different, we love novelty, we love things that are out of the ordinary, and that’s why I am following you! Love the explanations!

Dude, without your comments, I didn't even notice the bubbles and that the action takes place underwater! I've watched this clip at least 10 times! ahahaha THANKS!
