Director Reacts - XG - 'SOMETHING AIN'T RIGHT' MV

If you go to the mv's comments it make a lot more sense. Goes into everyone's specific powers and why. Its very helpful

Japan saves the music world again

You’re overthinking it.
The music is great.

don't get it either but enjoy it anyway hahahahahaha 😂😂😂😂

What amazes me about their Woke Up MV is that it is clearly structured as XG coming in to invade this tower at the beginning, crushing into it, breaking down their walls, exploding their leaders head.
Jurin goes in with the football wolves and breaks down the walls in the beginning.
Harvey invades the tower by crashing in through the roof.
Chisa drives the car through the wall.
Maya teleports into the leaders office and takes the leader down.
Cocona comes in with something like a swat team and takes over the throne room.
Chisa and Hinata are mesmerizing the riff raff after breaking open another wall.

In this video they are showing off some of their super powers.
It starts of with Harvey floating and using her telekinesis.
Hinata then super sized in the background.
Cocona is also using some sort of telekinesis having items floating around her.
Chisa's eyes flare up showing some sort of mind power.
Juria teleports away.
Maya is making people dance with mind control.
And Jurin is turning back time to show us how they got into this situation in the first place.

In addtion to that every thing in this video seems to be a little bit weird. Like "Something ain't right". It's not necessarily 100% in synch with the lyrics, but if I break it down it looks to me like this:

We see some chaos in the city and the girls showing off their powers and Jurin sends us back in time.
We see Maya mind controlling some office workers while Cocona is coming in through an elevator, where she is being filmed by bystanders. She clocks the guy behind her filming. As she turns her head towards him, her eyes go completely black and the guy starts to float as she leaves the elevator.
Jurin stops time in the parking garage, everyone around her is frozen in time while Juria teleports in with the pink car from one of the Fast and Furious movies, almost runs over Jurin and then drives off again.
We cut to a dance interlude and afterwards we see Harvey grabbing some stuff in the Konbini (jap. convenience store) and meets up with Maya and her mind controlled office workers as well as Juria and step into an elevator to meet up with Chisa, who is using her powers on a computer to type real fast. We can't see what she is doing, but my guess is she is either infiltrating the IT systems or scrubbing evidence of them being there from the interwebs.
We then cut to another dance interlude where Hinata shows off her powers again to go small. Afterwards we're coming back to the office, where Maya takes over more workers to have them join into the dance, while Hinata is outside but this time super sized like in the beginning and we can see the first signs of chaos outside with some smoke rising. Looks like she might have stepped on some cars.
We then have Juria timewarp us back to the beginning of the video but now we're in the middle of the chaos with everyone just dancing away and using their powers willy nilly. We have cars floating around, fires in the city and the mind controlled people just joining in for the finale.

The only thing that is persistent between XGs videos - at least for me - is they are coming in to take over a place, sometimes they are by themselves and sometimes they have the Alphaz in tow.

Don't ask me for sources, but years ago I read some articles about some apparently fundamental differences between Eastern + Western story-telling culture. While Westerners are used having the background to a movie explained first (think long origin story), Eastern movies and media seems to tend to just skip that and immerse the viewer in a pre-existing universe from the start. I guess the philosophy is that they often want to tell a story and not the full lore.

I actually feel like that explanation made it much easier to me to accept videos like this one, just sitting back and switching off the rational "I do not understand this story" part of me. Same goes for the sometimes wild concepts, which can focus solely on being visually stunning. Not inherently consistent.

"XG is so insane" is what I think their concept is.🔥👽 Anyway, thanks for reaction to XG.🐺

“Can I Ask Some Questions?” 😂😅
I LOVE the convos XG Provokes!!! 👏👏👏

I'm 64. I've been watching XG since they started. I love all their music. XG can't be touched. They have something that no other group has. These lady's have put in work to be where there are. I know they are the hottest group in world. XG #!

Love how the chat is more familiar with XG than himself. Lol. You need to do your own research at least or you'll be lost. XG is always creative with their songs and MVs. You gotta keep up.

that’s why the song is called Something Ain’t Right!?!?

How many XG MVs have you watched? They released almost 14 singles.... If you missed one, you wont understand

The alien theme is aligned to XG's motto: "breaking boundaries and stereotypes"

The wolf theme is explained in their docu series XTRA XTRA that describes their bond as a pack

During their performance in HITC LA and NY back in 2023 they showed a video of space wolves 🤷

You've reacted to XG left right, Trampoline (Maya: who let the Wolves loose?), WOKE Up, and now Something ain't right, all alien concepts. Their World tour is The First Howl. The fan base are known as ALPHAZ. This is a part of who they are. They introduced it in SHOOTING STAR (Wolf 🐺 Masks)coming from another galaxy 🌌. The motorcycle in WOKE UP is a Wolf 🐺. Cocona rides it in GIRL GVNG (to get it you should see this video).

cómo puede ser tan interesantes tus reacciones, no me pierdo ni una sola, siempre se aprende.

xgggggggggggggggg

Alien wolves lmao hell yeah

Bruh, I don't ask questions, I just enjoy :D

Stay here
When did stray kids do an alien concept?
They did wolves but I don’t recall aliens

This is a summer banger. I can totally see people listening to this on a road trip or when picnicking

Their company is literally X-Galaxy (XGALX). Space has always been their concept. The wolfpack is just a representation of their closeness. Off of that the fandom took the name Alphaz 🐺👽

Since the beginning they have lore. They are from a far away planet here to uplift and inspire with their Xtraordinary music. XG really embraces their lore. It's fun and allows a lot of creativity in the things they do.

My man, I know you have seen enough videos to know they don't always literally follow a songs lyrics. I would be so bold to say 50/50.

There are XG videos that carry some deeper meaning. This is just them getting together to be aliens while they live on their new planet. 😆😆

I'm a space nut. And, I also miss the creativity of videos that we use to have in the 80s, 90s, and 2k. XG brings that flavor.

Nice reaction ✌🏾

I don't know exactly when the concept started. I think it was a turning point when Hinata sent Simon a picture of a wolf's face. I think The concept of "alien" and "wolf" expressed by the girls, producers, and production team is I think it fits well with what they want to do. There is no sufficient explanation, so it may be confusing. I enjoy seeing what many people are considering from the fragments revealed in the work ❤
（Sorry if the translation doesn't work well🇯🇵🐺👽）

Amazing reactions, thanks! But, XG is NOT KPOP, NOT ALL ASIAN MUSIC ARE KPOP. Again, thank you.

I guess he never met any alien before

LESSS GOOO

LESSS GOOO

Gotta think multiversal my dude. 3 incongruent things can exist at the same time. Just have faith and acceptance.

from what i see , their mini album is alien concept. their single is different like shooting star left right wwy woke up.. only woke up related to wolves

XG concept is Space Wolf Aliens.

I cannot lmao I can’t believe this is the video where he realizes their concept is alien wolves. A lot of their music videos and songs have mentions of space and wolves.

Why not have multiple concepts! It’s honestly not too surprising considering their group is under XGALX (XGalaxy). If you watch the XG documentary, they dive into why they chose their concepts a little more.

I interpret this MV as they're aliens with different powers who've started to integrate into human society but someone(s) screwed them over. And so they throw a super power tantrum messing up the city around them. There are different iterations of alien interaction in some of their other videos such as exploration, invasion, and domination. Regarding wolves, I think that refers to the members of XG, the fanbase and their company's identity. And the concept of aliens is their persona

I feel like you should research a lill bit through their discography it isn’t that big yet but they release pretty fast paced.

In all of XGs discography, Macara is the only song that does not refer to either 'space, aliens or wolves' in the lyrics or in the videos. The reason being that Mascara was supposed to be their debut song. This was what they were practicing and working on when XG was still 8 members. The idea of intergalactic/space theme wasn't fully matured other than their label name X-Galaxy, which was then changed to XGALX prior to the Move Series and with Tippy Toes. With their debut delayed due to the pandemic, a new song, Tippy Toes, became their debut and the Wolfpack lore was created, Hinata's Wolf painting for Simon certainly cemented the Wolfpack identity for the group. With Shooting Star and the Left Right M/Vs. The concept of Intergalactic/part Wolf/alien DNA/visitors to Earth became a working concept. One of only a few groups that has successfully incorporated a theme like this in every single release.

They are Aliens with Wolf DNA.

During the training people forget they were competing Against each other but followings one person Simon . Who is considered as the Alpha . And at his birthday he received a painting of a Wolf representing him and details half of his face with different colors that repressing each members while the back ground was outer space, and the the song that was made during that time was Shooting Star. And the Label XGALX …Simon whom they follow the Alpha male but he is CG very first Fan making him the First Alphaz. Hence We is them 😊

I don’t get why he’s so confused… lol simple video

I totally agree with you!! I love XG they are my fav group!! But when I remember Girl Gang and they are Aliens with different powers like Harvey is a mermaid, Jurin is a butterfly and Hinata is a clone, that's the concept that stuck in my mind but now with SAR they changing the whole concept I can't understand what's going on

They’re alien wolfs, that’s the entire concept

XGs overarching concept is that they are a pack of alien wolves come to Earth. This is them trying to fit in with humans but their Alien super-powers keep coming out.

You think too much

what’s a little interesting about these girls is that they’re all japanese, sing in english, but promote in korea. that could lend some helping hand to the alien idea or to the idea or motif behind their name

Together the group is like a wolf pack .. but they are aliens themselves... Actually most of their videos hint at being aliens from space. And Hinata is the new Antman 😂

"Something ain't right, you've been acting funny lately..." Yeah, I can imagine that's true if the office girl next to you suddenly starts typing at super speed, or the girl in the konbini is tossing stuff in her basket using her mind powers, or cars are teleporting around the city, things are burning down due to reckless use of superpowers....sure seems like something ain't right! lol Video makes perfect sense to me, Roscoe!

Their japan company is based on unusual concepts and experimentation in music. They are aliens but they are oriented to women and they are "alfa" or strong.

You should react to their Choreography session, rehearsals...Then you'll see how cool and swag Cocona and Jurin are, even the others are awesome...Shooting Star XG - SHOOTING STAR (DANCE PRACTICE) and Left Right...

Unrelated but the ammount of cool cars in this video its Incredible
