well it's really well lit and I like the colour palette and the key point choreo at the chorus!

Not a Stan and the only song I've liked is Superhuman but I really like this song too! It's catchy and fun , I love the chorus too

I said it from the beginning and I'll say it again.
Dark-hair Jaehyun is superior, it just hits differently...

Also, I love this, we love martial art masters and a Bruce Lee homage.
But I'm NCT trash, so my opinion is moot.

My dudes could be farting on a track, and I would be getting my entire life LOL

i mean they all look good but this is far from what i wanted/expected

me watching the mv:


The song is so NCT, I love it, and I'm really into the concept. The yellow&black outfits of the motorcyclists gave me such strong Kill Bill vibes, but maybe that's what they were going for; that, and Bruce Lee ofc. Overall, it got me very hyped. It must be amazing watching the live performance. And I can't get that choreo move with their arms raised out of my head. The people need the practice video, SM.

Last but not least, I'm 100% Doyoung biased (who was serving vocals AND visuals, like always), but I gotta say that Johnny was extremely dangerous in this mv, holy shit.

Edit: I suddenly realized what the yellow&black outfits and the motorcycles also reminded me of. Has anyone played Saints Row 2? One of the enemies was a gang called The Ronin, a primary Asian-American biker gang with yellow as their colour.

Sidebar.
I hope Dem Jointz continues to work and produce for SM.
Their sound is so welcomed tbh.

absolutely agreed. ever since cloud 9 (one of my favorite exo songs) i was hooked on his production. *chefs kiss*

Oh my god this is trash. Jungwoo came back for this? Haechan did this instead of a Dream comeback? I need Taeil to leave and go solo lmao. Thank god the WayV boys were saved.

Liking NCT is hard sometimes LMAO

the visuals and the choreo are god tier but this song is so BAD.
the chorus is just noise...i'm so disappointed

[spread.livejournal.com]

The more I listen to it the more I like it.
From the rockin' intro to the smooth R&B switch up and chord progressions.

Like I know people just think NCT's music is a bunch or random noise, which is fair... feel how you feel.
But the production on these dudes music is always so interesting and cool.

You can not say NCT's music is boring.
Always some new experimental sounds with these lads.

Given the black/yellow palette and martial arts, I was wondering if they'ld namedrop Bruce Lee (haven't listened to the teasers). Lol they don't just mention him, he's part of the main hook XD
I'm biased because I really enjoyed Lee's movies. I'm digging this. The video is really pretty. The verses are heavenly - I loved when the hook stopped first into the really melodic Haechan/Jungwoo part. The hook/chorus isn't my favourite by them, but it's fun.
The line distribution looks prettyy good? Superhuman also was good (at least in my foggy memories?), glad they're keeping it up.

I feel like if this was by anyone but NCT I would hate it but because it's by them I love it. It's fun!

[mallmouse.livejournal.com]

i kinda love it?

[soyunatetera.livejournal.com]

Love the colors!!! And Taeyong is Jaejoong in O era but with good dancing skills lol
The song is ok but I think I'll like it more with the live performance

[digitalqueen.livejournal.com]

I LOVE IT SO MUCH from the bridge to the end it makes me feel feral

[lolknope.livejournal.com]

this is the first nct song I couldn’t make it all the way through and I’m a big fan of noise bops😔. At least yuta and Johnny got to shine a bit

[blck-ink.livejournal.com]

i'm intrigued. not totally sold yet but i feel like it'll grow on my ("new thangs" is already stuck in my head lol)
production is really cool though.

[torontok.livejournal.com]

Normally I love 127's noise music but this chorus is a bit too much.
Johnny could get it six ways to sunday though

[uledy.livejournal.com]

😬😬😬😬😬

[greasetastic-x.livejournal.com]

oof not a fan but it will probably grow on me by the time I see them in june

[annayism.livejournal.com]

classic experimental nct, as expected! song is not bad, def gonna grow on me like simon says did. i actually liked the last 30 seconds or so. johnny and jaehyun look amazing

[ohlookshiny.livejournal.com]

nct noise is baaaaack omg love it

the transition from taeil’s high note into the dance break is GODLY

i am constantly in awe of haechan’s talent wtf he was shining in this!

[sapphiredeity.livejournal.com]

exo's comeback profit was used for yet another shitty nct comeback

[carmine-pink.livejournal.com]

Hello Mr. Johnny J. Suh???

In theory I prefer choruses with actual singing instead of talking/chanting but I enjoy Simon Says and Boss so we'll see about this. Vocals are great as per usual, I'm glad they make it clearer that Yuta is part of the vocal line.

[hiimgosu.livejournal.com]

esto es completamente basura menos the looks.

[kcaomei.livejournal.com]

they all look incredible but i don't like this lmao it'll probably grow on me though

[mizukigirl.livejournal.com]

Well I hate the chorus, but the singing parts are fine. Johnny and Jaehyun look amazing here. Haechan is showing his star quality

[minstradamus.livejournal.com]

Not their worst song, but definitely not their best. SM needs to do something if they want NCT to turn into their next big thing.

[timetobegin.livejournal.com]

This gives me major throwbacks to Cherry Bomb in the sense that I can't stand the noisy parts but then there's the slick vocal line sections and those keep me listening ugh. The rest of the album will probably be much better though.

[dallinferno.livejournal.com]

lmao I love it! i am excited that nct noise is back, that's why i started stanning in the first place, baby!!

[snowphone.livejournal.com]

well there's some eye candy here but this song is not for me.

[queenhinata.livejournal.com]

You know it's a NCT song. Not my fav, but definitely not their worst. I do like it.

[kaninasan.livejournal.com]

YESSSS this is the wonderful nct noise I love.

The mv is amazing, honestly the first rewatchable 127 mv and the song is a BANGER.

Also Johnny is PERFECTION

[jyusou.livejournal.com]

This song has some good bits, mostly the vocal bits. I’m usually okay with noise but this is kinda awful. The MV is amazing though, even if the editing in the last leg of the song kinda makes the song sound like it’s dragging, and makes them look awkward.
