"Loona Yves - New MV reaction:Lots and lots of apples"


"Loona Yves - New MV reaction:Lots and lots of apples"

And now we are down to the last 4 of the Loona girls before they debut but before they do Yves is November 2017's it girl. Along with her is a brand new sound that her company would want to call Soultronica. I guess that would be Soul singing and electronic music rolled into one?

I must admit that Yves is pretty but she does not have the same effect as Jinsoul had on me but there are things in this MV that grab your attention.

Apples. Lots and lots of Apples. Yves has the snake for an animal symbol and you can see that they toy around with the concept of the original sin a lot here. You can see Yves biting and biting apple after apple in this MV. And each bite of the apple signifies a choice. She lives with those choices all her life as she sings in the song.

The song initially didn't stick with me all that much but after listening to it a 2nd or 3rd time I found Yves' voice to have that nasal quality that while not annoying makes her voice distinct. 

There are links here to the other Loona members as with the previous videos. The Chuck Taylors that Odd eye circle seems to be wearing is here. I dont know why they are in a bowling alley dancing away but it is good way to showcase Yves name and dancing prowess here.

In that scene where she uses the claw machine she chooses the white bird which is the animal symbol for Haseul. Another scene here she swings a golf club at some animals where you see the Rabbit for Heejin and the Blue Deer for VIvi who also appears in this MV.


And the other Member to appear here is Choerry from Odd Eye Circle. She receives an apple that Yves drops and I believe that it traveled through that purple colored portal that she has set up. This indicates a possible duet with her.

You see the elevator stop at the 5th floor in the MV right? Well the next scene Yves is seen with Vivi who is the 5th member of Loona to debut. 

And now the confusing part. Originally she was rumored to have the snake for an animal but various websites now give off the information that she is a Swan. So the imagery of apples doesn't seem to make sense with a swan and the only Swan that you can see here is in that pile that she obliterated with a golf club. No snake either. Hmmmmmm. I wish they would not pull this kind of switch in the future.

Although I am sure that Loonatics enjoy the powerful dance moves and Yves vocals in this song. Snake or Swan might not longer matter.
