"GWSN - Puzzle Moon MV Reaction: Figuring the Seals."

"We may seem trivial and insignificant but one of possesses a unique."

I honestly did not almost watch this MV because of this silly quote at the beginning.
A unique what? Or maybe they were asking but forgot the question mark at the end?

I am thankful that I got past the quote though and I got to the first beats of the song that instantly hooked me. The MV starts with the girls dancing in front of a wide screen that has a tree in the middle and symbols flashing at regular intervals.

The choreography of this features the much touted tutting. Finger movements that heighten the steps and they are really great to look at. The beat sounds like something F(x) would put in their songs and the similarity does not end there since this group also features an Amber type.

While girl groups like Twice and Momoland feature short haired girls they remain dressed in women's clothing. Miya however is dressed like a boy. Sadly I was not able to hear if she was as good as Amber(A personal favorite of mine) but at least she makes a great showing in the visual and dance department. The world needs another F(x) and GWSN just might be that group.



Back to the MV , my theory is that the girls are all trapped in this complex , sealed away by the big screen that serves as their background as they dance. They were probably put in there as a magical experiment and were promised that if they learn the power of the seals and weaken them that they can be sent free. This is why you will see that in every waking hour they keep on experimenting with hand gestures and researching these symbols even when they should be eating , taking a bath or even sleeping.

In the end they did figure out the correct patterns as they are able to move out of their "prison".

GWSN showcases a tall maknae , a strong rapper and really great vocalists. The choreography is a treat to watch in itself so check the practice video. This group reminds me of Oh My girl when they were debuting. Not because of the star symbols but because of their beautiful coordinated movements.

I am expecting greater things from them in the future. I wonder what they will come up next.
