  • For the 68th video of this series, classical music majors react to AKMU’s ‘Melted’ MV vs ‘Last Goodbye’ MV
    AKMU short film is already on the react list and will be reacted and released sometime next school year :)
    To those who are wondering where Gwen was, she wasn’t able to make it to the recording session because we filmed this during finals week. Next year I will not be putting any explanation in the video/description to why a person is gone because the answer is always the same: they just couldn’t make the recording session. I assure you I do my best to reschedule filming dates multiple times to try and include both reactors, but sometimes it is just not possible. Thank you for understanding and please spread the word to those who don't read the description in the comments.
    If you’re wondering why we released an AKMU reaction instead of EXO Love Me Right, it is because 14.99+ patrons on patreon get to vote on which reaction scheduled for the next month they want to be the first reaction of the month. AKMU was voted for the most out of all the July candidates!

    Also, none of us are PROFESSIONAL musicians. So if you come here for a strict breakdown/analysis of the music, you won’t be getting that.This is strictly my conservatory musician friends taking time in their schedule to watch kpop for fun, and throw in any musical comments that come into their mind! Also please do not complain about any "boring" reactions...some of the musicians have blank faces since they are concentrating so deeply on analyzing the music.

    얼음들 "eol um deul" = ice
    어른들 "eo reun deul" = adults
    For this reason, the lyric in 'Melted' - "why is ice so cold?" can be easily misheard as "why are adults so cold?" This is well intended by the singer.

    Also for the lyrics to melted, the word "ices" is similar to the word "adults" in Korean. So when they say "why are the ices so cold, if the ices melt the world will become warmer" it sounds like "why are adults so cold, if they melt the world will become warmer"💕

    • @andre-cmyk
      @andre-cmyk Před 7 lety +134

      The difference in the sound of these word is m/n, so it is really really similar. I like the fact that there are many words for adults, but they used the right one for wordplay.
      if you want han/rom:
      ice 얼음 (eoreum)
      adult 어른 (eoreun)

      Yes, I was surprised this wasn't pointed out when the lyric translation was given. Like English, "ice" is not typically pluralized in Korean, so when they say "why are ices (얼음들) so cold", it sounds awkward but if you hear instead "why are grown-ups (어른들) so cold", it makes much more sense.

    One more. "Ices" has same sound with "adults" in korean word.
    Ices - eol-eumdeul (얼음들)
    Adults - eoleundeul (어른들)
    So that mean 'If adults melt(kind), world will be more warm.'.
    This is my idea, but I don't know if it's true.^오^

    my fave thing abt this song is the wordplay for the title. the title is "eoreumdeul (얼음들)" which means "the frozen ones", it's a wordplay to "eoreundeul (어른들)" which means "adult". so when they say "they", they probably mean adults

    melted also includes really smart word play in Korean, the word for ice is '어름들' which sounds almost identical to the word for adults '어른들' and in Korean it can sound like "why are adults so cold" and it emphasises the message in the video and adds even more depth, Chanhyuk is so clever when it comes to all their songs

    Even though AKMU has so many amazing songs, Melted by far is my favorite. The first time I heard it is when they performed it on SuperStar K live, the live was so breathtaking that to this day I prefer it over the studio version! BTW, I have always wondered what the musicians would think of Brown Eyed Girls' "Sixth Sense"!!! That song is an instrumental and vocal powerhouse! Also, I think that they should be introduced to some serious kpop OG females!!!

    This has got to be one of the best reactors I've ever watched. I've seen a lot of reaction videos and most of them only pay attention to aesthetics and their bias'.
    It's so fascinating to hear the opinions of people who knows music so well and explaining every single details for people like me who can't really pick apart different notes and melody changes. Also the fact that they try to understand the emotions and the connections of the music and the video.
    I can't wait for more reactions!

    I wish you'd explained the lyrics to Melted better to them - the wordplay on 'ice' and 'adults' because the two words sound so so similar that when they're sing about ice being cold, it sounds like they're saying adults are cold. I imagine it would've blown the panel away, esp since the response was that it was poetic.

    In Korean, 'ice'is pronounced similar with 'adult'. So the lyrics means both.

    That's why the MV showed bad adults...

    it's also very important to point out that "ice" (oreum) in korean also stands for adult. so in another words they're also singing "oh ice/adult why are you so cold".

    I have a very sincere request for the Classical Vocalists to react to Sohyang (specifically what she sang for King of Masked Singer (Mona Lisa and Home) but her songs on I Am a Singer and Immortal Song are also very amazing (Arirang Alone, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Fate, Lean On Me, and literally everything else, but those are my favorites)).
    I'm sure it's annoying when people request songs when you have such a busy schedule but she recently lost a six win streak on the show (the second highest) and I'm very emotional rn and I really wanted the reactors and the rest of the viewers to hear her and her stunning talent.
    She's regarded one of the best singers in Korea and her vocal range spans like three octaves. Her technique and high notes are breathtaking and I just really love her and want to show off her talent to the world and blow everyone away with how great she is.
    Sorry for such a long request/rant. I'm just v proud of her and upset at her loss.
    Also, fun facts: she used to be a gospel singer, sang the Korean dub of Moana, was the first Korean artist to sing the American national anthem, has never lived abroad but learned English from singing pop songs and watching TV shows and movies, and beat cervical cancer because she's a badass.
    Aside from this, I love your channel and all the reactors and I wish you and this channel great success! Thank you for your videos~

(and the video itself had subtitles in different languages. it will make you appreciate more) and also Suhyun effortlessly rap in that song ..

    For those who don't know AKMU. They are siblings who were sort of raised in Mongolia because their parents were doing missionary work. As they grew older they saw that school in general was too expensive. So they could only dream to follow music. In Melted the brother wrote most of the lyrics, telling his sister to look towards the future because the past will deteriorate with time.
