I love how they sound different but the same at the same time. They changed but didn't lose their signature.
To fully understand the video and the lyrics here is some context:
OOTD has at least three layers - Superficial, Satirical and Story layer. The first is the most obvious which is the self-empowering, confidence boosting "we are beautiful, successful, rich and famous" kind of message. JiU calls herself Venus, a goddess and being literally "drop dead gorgeous" at the end.. And it is just soo over the top :D But the thing is they deserve it and could actually do it, but it is just not them.
On a satirical layer this song is a huge middlefinger to the music industry in general and the superficial beauty where everything is all about the looks, everything staged and edited. The soundscape and parts of the M/V mimic generic girl crush concept sounds (what you do not really hear in the other 70+ songs DreamCatcher has) and the M/V redraw parts of other M/Vs. Posing with cool Cars and Motorcycles (Siyeon - Sua), doing commercial and product placement (Gahyeon), just posing looking fabulous with high fashion (Handong and JiU wearing Dior), making fake drama for more views (Yoohyeon) etc. The rap section is told from the perspective of an idol how many of them act after getting some fame. And for all the previous pictures they empathize that those are fake, and show how they actually look from behind the scene. Handong with the bruises, JiU like a boxed product, the Yoohyeon drama that ends right after the cut and the behind the scene footage and rendering shots for the other three. They also incorporate really short cuts to ensure we do not take them seriously, like the face Handong makes, Yoohyeon burst into a laughter throughout the final chorus, Siyeon laughing etc. Also the "Look at my necklace" (that she is not wearing), "look at my black dress" while wearing street fashion...
Now for this satirical layer they had to adjust a bit their delivery and this is what makes this track different and this is why many who love the Dreamcatcher signature sound complain. First they wanted to not just look but to sound a bit like a traditional K-Pop girl crush song. And those filters and distortions and tuning that make a not so great singer sound good actually take a bit away from parts as we can hear their natural voice less as normally they do not use it since they are such great singers and do not need it... Also they deliberately used lifeless robotic delivery through the "OOTD this my fashion shut up no more question", like OOTD is the only thing that matters, they have no opinion about anything else, do not ask them about anything else as this is the robotic answer you get. In the final chorus they are almost laughing while singing to highlight the sarcasm. Also the overly playful mocking tone of the "I am only doing better". All in all ppl complaining about why the track is different most probably miss this layer.
And finally there is the story layer where OOTD is the 1st part of a duology. Dreamcatcher members here are the villains who lure poor Shasha (the protagonist of the video, working as a video editor or graphical artist) into some kind of an augmented reality experience looking for the "crown" (aka fame, success whatever). The analogy I think is the follow the white rabbit from Matrix (along with many other Matrix style references throughout the M/V). And to appeal to Shasha they play the role of being great and rich and successful aligning with the narcissisms of the satirical layer.
The way I see the story starts when Sasha searches for Dreamcatcher videos and stumbles upon the mysterious Dreamchat where Archenemy (spelled backwards, the 99th victim of Dreamcather) tells her about the power of the crown that she should be looking for luring her into this VR game. She follows the crown (drawn at the back of the truck) and at the end finds it but falls a victim of Dreamcatcher becoming the 100th sacrifice hence completing the crown. JiU even refers herself as Nephthys who is actually the goddess of death, decay, and darkness, mother of Anubis and Shasha falls when JiU "places the crown" on her head. This lore is not in the video, there were some external clues to put together this part.
That's a great explanation
wow dude damn, great explanation
I loved it, you should react to the whole album, it's amazing 🎉
fun fact that gabee & rian from lacica created and also give the private lesson for the members.that's why the vibes kinda like SWF 👌🏻
yesss street dreamcatcher fighter
Omg!!! That's so cool!
This is so different comeback from dreamcatcher. You are right this is so freaking cool concept I’ve ever seen from them, so love it. Btw thank you so much for your best reaction!
I fck with this album. Rising is too damn good fight me. Shatter keeps me up at night. We Are Young is a goddamn MOOD.
YOU'RE SO RIGHT
I love the subtext of this… “the girl group villain concept is contrived”
7:07
In fact, the ootd song choreography was created by the Lachika team from Street Woman Power.
🤯
For Dami's rap part, you could check out their live performances! Dami's loud and hype as hell and it's way better
I miss the early days when Aaron reacted lovingly to Dreamcatcher😅
The producer is Leez, if I'm not mistaking. He left before Bon Voyage.
I'm used to you being a little more critical I was expecting you to hate it 😅 I feel like they've finally broken out of the "anime opening" box. I could hear this album being played at Coachella or SXSW or any of the rock festivals and not be out of place at all. I hope this will open more Doors (pun intended their producers name is Door 😅) for them. Also the mystery codes and the backstory with Shasha and ymenehrca is so immersive. They went above and beyond with this release. Part of the fun is deciphering the hidden meaning; Things aren't always as they appear. "Shall we start this game?" 😈
I expected that you would like the song, because the instrument is more electronic distorting rock like on the odd eye ..., for me I did not get it for the first time, but after a couple listens it grows on me . Glad you like the song , can't wait for you to react to the rest of the Album, the tracks sound really very good and different from previous albums.
At first glance you could think this is about them being proud and happy with themselves, about confidence. I don't think that is it though. I have no idea if my theory is correct, but the fact that the album is called VersuS VillainS makes me think it is not this simple. So I believe this song is meant as a criticism of narcissism, vanity, materialism and also (maybe) the fast fashion industry. "OOTD" stands for "Outfit of the Day" after all, maybe useless instagram influencers posting videos of their outfit of the day, which also promotes fast fashion.
The fact that fashion is moving ever faster is the most destructive industry to the planet apart from the fossil fuel industry. The Aral lake has all but disappeared because of the cotton industry for example. It would fit to the Villain image, and you can see in the MV that they are acting. It is shown in the scene where Yoohyeon and Handong are fighting, but then the camera is off and Handong helps Yoohyeon up.
The main reason why I don't think it is about confidence or their own success is the line "Driving on the highway, drunken everyday, do you feel like a monster?" and the album title. That just doesn't fit. And there was the ymenehcra account posting about touching a crown is dangerous and other cryptic messages before the comeback.
It could also be a big and well-hidden F*U to the Kpop industry, like the Nightmare arc probably was. The narcissism and materialism is definitely criticized here, and Dreamcatcher have been criticized a lot themselves because of their rock/metal concept, while other groups have been celebrated for using a guitar riff once in a song. And Handong standing in front of the camera with bruises all over her legs seems to be a comment on the merciless industry as well.
The music is highly interesting as well. The Rock is dirty and distorted. The song structure is not what you'd expect at all, for me it is punk rock meets K-Pop. Not their usual spiel, but a very good progression. It takes a couple of listens to really appreciate it.
I feel like you should react to dance practice and the album for this one👍
I agree. The dance looks so cool!
I feel like this album is more modern, or even poppier, but still have the signature dreamcatcher song (Rising), and a very experimental song Shatter, which surprisingly i really like it a lot, more than the whole Apocalypse series!
I think Dami's voice isn't that loud because the instrumental is also stripped back in her part and she vocalizes pretty deep.
When you check out the whole album I recommend checking out at least the 'Shatter' performance! They also posted a gorgeous dance video to it not 2 hours ago!
Leave it to Dreamcatcher to completely overthrow my favourite B-Sides with Demian, and then do it again with the next album.
Handong's part just hits different
At first I liked the song a lot, now that I've heard it a couple times I like it even more. Sounds different from everything but still Dreamcatcher

There's a lot of talk about ootd, but like a dream catcher, it doesn't disappoint.
Fearless,OOTD. BEST OF YEAR.
Yaay I was waiting for your reaction 🔥
Been waiting for your reaction 👀
Love this whole album!!!
You should definitely react to Dreamcatcher Rising 😎
The vocals ! 😱 Something soo special as always. 👍 Thanks.
my love for this title actually rocketed when I heard the nu metal influences. I know people seem to be disappointed with the "lack of rock" but I have always enjoyed nu metal even back when rock elitists were dragging nu metal through the dirt back in the day.
OOTD is already good. But now I like “Shutter” more. Completely off track but after listening to it several times it's an absolute blast. There have been several videos of this on the official DC Chanel recently Song, including showcase verse. and dance videos. It's all unbelievable.
Dreamcatcher released 'OOTD' Dance Video and Dance Video (MV ver.)
we want a reaction for Rising 😅
When first hearing the song.
I really like the "rise" part until before the chorus, is so good for me.
All part beside that part i'm not too liked it. (Maybe because of flow idk)
But after hearing a few times, i'm able like it.
Personally, on this album, i really like the Shatter and Rising.
Shatter is just remind me of Red Sun(idk why)
And Rising, of course this what like their signature of Dreamcatcher. Powerful music and vocal.
Hope you like it the whole album.
The vocals are pretty tame this time round with a more aggressive type of compressor applied...Maybe they're going for something more generic to appeal for the more common folk. This is one song that sounds the most different between studio and live.
I knew you were gonna like this one 😂
Drop dead gorgeous at the end part indeed 😮 oof awesome title and album
OMG FINALLY I WAS SO WAITING FOR YOUR REACTION
Dreamcatcher!!!
OOTD or Odd eye?
The fact that this song/mv are SATIRE/Social critique, calling out all the fake , insta-people, influencers,etc. ❤
While at the same time making it a flex ❤
Whole album is a big SLAP in the face. Its soooo different and yet that makes it even more Dreamcatcher ❤
Handong and Gahyeon are HELLA AGRESSIVE in this 😍
SuA on that bike... nah im good OMFG😍
JiU letting us know she is a GODDESS is FACTS❤
Siyeon... bruh...
Bloohyeon needs to PUNCH ME IN THE FACE AND END MY LIFE ( lets be honest she already did )
DAMI TOLD ME TO GET THE F**K OUT OF HER WAY 😍😍😍 YES MA'AM I WILL F**K ALL THE WAY OFF ❤
Near the ending when Jiu says the spotless line... the facial expression she makes... SHE ENDED ME
9:10 same man. At lower volume, hear like she's mumbling
Yeayyy finally
PLEASE DO YOUNG POSSE - XXL REACTION!
Nice!
I have to be honest i really didn't think you would like it. Glad you did. I'm a die hard DC fan and at 1st i was like hmmmmm idk. Its grown on me a little but still. I wasnt a big fan of Bonvoyage either but loved Demain and Propose. We are young and Shattered are decent and Rising would of been 1 of my favs if it wasnt for that Ri Ri Ri Ri Rising part. I miss Leez.
Legend has it Siyeon is still saying RI RI RI RI RI RI to this day 😅 I have to agree I love everything except that part but I love the enthusisam everyone else has for it ❤️
Please react to "the boyz" - "watch it"!!!
You have to do a reaction for agassy by soojin😭💗
