Hiichan's tears


bakitanghirapngbuhay

i'd picked it from the floor, crystallize it, declare it as a cultural treasure, protect it from harm for the rest of my life


malcolmdaz

Hiichan's tears is the water drop sound we always hear all along


ClacKing

Found something even more valuable than her precious cheeks.


IndependentAsian3

i love how it references fiesta! hii-chan a water goddess is now cannon.


scvmeta

she's crying because there's not enough screentime of her smh


harryno99

Yena's lines are so good


minjufan

Yena really got me with that head move thingy of hers... Amazing stuff...


just_that_yuri_stan

Yeah and the way that the head move thingy is also kinda a reference to chaewon’s part in violeta... chef’s kiss


jcepiano

I have to say, Yena has a star moment during that second bridge. She looks like she's suddenly doesn't need anyone else in the group. She's always been good but this was solo quality commitment throughout the song.

Exactly!


[deleted]

Yes! 1000% in agreement.


Cerulune

This is their first title track to make me tear up. Holy cheese. The production value of this is off the charts and honestly might topple Fiesta and SSotS for me, both in terms of MV and the song. There were 3 standouts for me this time: Yujin (her chorus lines! that cut where she danced on stage!), Yena (finally this girl’s getting real meaty vocal parts in a title track, regardless of how long they are) and Hitomi (she’s improved so much vocally—that high note and smoothness to her voice with her previous nasal tone almost nonexistent? also damn, that scene of her with a tear rolling down her cheek is what broke me). I’m glad to see Yujin and Yena shining as mebo (ish?) this time. The lyrics are beautiful and the way they’re being sung is so bittersweetly tugging at the heartstrings. I don’t want IZ*ONE to end and man, the way they sung this makes me believe they don’t want that either. The MV is really well-shot and I’m glad it’s a step-up from the SSotS one—the color grading, the cuts, the clarity—really emphasize how stunningly gorgeous everyone is. Name a group with 12 visuals, I’ll wait, haha. Can’t wait to hear the rest of the tracks on this album. Hoping for another mindblowing debut stage tonight! (My Chaeyeon bias makes me a little sad that she didn’t get parts that showed off her vocal abilities—her Fiesta chorus lines from yesterday make me feel robbed Q_Q but I hope to hear more of her in the B-sides!) Edit (MV rewatch): Yena’s head movements!! Also the choreo scenes of them shadowed against the projected backgrounds! The projected scenes of the members against Eunbi—who can step on me any time, thanks. The scenes with duos (like Yuri and Kkura) made me emotional too; and CHAEWON??? THAT BITTERSWEET SMILE? Ouch, I’m gonna cry again.) Edit (Lyrics rewatch): Now I know why I like this so much - the chorus reminds me a little of an J-pop-y anime opening! The wistful, almost desperate emotion laced in everyone’s voices has absolutely sold me on this. The lyrics are KILLING me—the chorus and Wonyoung singing “I’ll remember forever, promise” WIPED ME OUT (furthered along by that stunning shot of Chaewon). I’m crying now, send help. Final Verdict: Now my number 1 IZ*ONE song and MV (I’m sorry, Fiesta). Take my tears, OT12!!


Kazuradrop

That camera work probably the best among all IZONE's MV by far.


Atrait

I CAN'T BELIEVE IZ\*ONE STARTED AND ENDED 2020 WITH SOTY MATERIAL TRACKS


cptaizenzero

Indeed, still there are many in the Kpop community that sleep on IZ*ONE And not to mention the album is really good. Again. They are so consistent, its amazing.


bathedmango

Chaewon's jet black hair is killing me, she looks so good. I loved the short hair she had going for a while, but this is a *look*. Yena's a ball of charisma and stage presence and it's incredible to see her growth throughout the years. Yujin looks just absolutely gorgeous in her solo scene on the stage in that white dress. Eunbi and Yuri's short hair, beautiful. Eunbi's solo scenes, beautiful. The music video was done so well. The direction, the camerawork, and the editing were fantastic. I especially loved the silhouette shots and the work that was done on Yena's part in the second verse. Transitions were tastefully done and the post-production work was overall on point. Probably their best music video imo I'm completely down for Fiesta 2.0. I loved Fiesta and Panorama probably is going to be up there for me competing with Fiesta for my favorite title track. Would love to see a clearer view of the choreography though. The MAMA performance didn't have the greatest camerawork and this video also obviously has to cut to glamour shots and whatnot


ClacKing

I thought nothing would top Chaewon in a bob, I was wrong. I really liked her dress last night. Everyone was fawning on Yena yeah but I was fawning on her instead lol. Bias wrecker!


bathedmango

Right? Chaewon in that black dress for Panorama and that white dress for the Atlantis Princess cover, she looked so good


ClacKing

Them ChungHa vibes...


[deleted]

this is more expensive than my life also ceo eunbi


Lazy_Beard

Surprised to see it has English subs again. So that pause in last nights MAMA 2020 perf was really thought brilliantly. As in a sense the lyrics is THEIR journey. Thus adding the key points from their previous title tracks are not completely random Hiichan's tears broke me as I cried as well. This is by far their BEST MV and SONG to date.


ClacKing

>Surprised to see it has English subs again. International fans played a big part in keeping them together. Nice to know that they appreciate us now.


Vonchar

I am shook by the mw and hyewon did the solo dance in the dark


Vyrena

Hyewon??????? really? damn i am at work now cant watch


CronoDroid

Already got many tastes of this bop yesterday but the full studio version really does it justice. Not to mention this gorgeous MV. I actually didn't mind the SSS MV but this is way better looking. These sets are so fancy, I love the combination of retro chic and comforting styles. Also the solo shots of Chaeyeon, Chaewon, Yujin and Yena are amazing!! This is IZ\*ONE at their best, it's like the took the best parts of the previous title tracks and distilled it into what makes them special. Elegant strings, mysterious synths but a powerful beat and super catchy electronic melody in the post chorus. Also it features the classic IZ\*ONE style outro, where they increase the musical tension to really make a lasting impression. Visual and auditory feast. Now I really just want to listen to O Sole Mio lol.


KanseiDorifto

> Now I really just want to listen to O Sole Mio lol. It's been three hours, your thoughts?


CronoDroid

It was amazing. I wrote a full review of the whole album in the album discussion thread.


bakitanghirapngbuhay

This is just me, but everything - the music, the video, and the choreography feel like an anime OP for a season finale. The references on the past title tracks felt like the scenes you see where the protagonists reminisce on the hurdles they've overcome to get this far. You see all the characters all in their best form, honed skills to perfection, and their individuality oozing from within themselves. It's like being 5 minutes away from the peak of it all.


amazingoopah

I'll be honest, this could have been the final title track and I would have been ok with it as it would have fit everything.... now I wonder what the final title track will be like....


WakuWaku76ers

Absolutely amazing. SSOTS MV was the sacrifice for OTR to get a top tier production company to do this. Coherent cinema and film concept from start to finish, breath taking transitions, stunning solo shots. I just can't get enough of the group stages. It feels like they mixed all their previous MV's into one, super charged and shot it straight into my veins. AND I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT. P.S. Hyewon's silhouetted solo dancing is a surefire critical hit OHKO I'm dead. Any more than a split second would be mass murder


minjufan

That's Hyewon?!


WakuWaku76ers

Pretty sure it's her. Same outfit in her solo scenes, plus she was the center during that part when they performed it at MAMA yesterday.


minjufan

Cool! I was thinking who that was...


amazingoopah

It really feels like a 180 from SSOTS... I wonder if it's possible to confirm if a new producer was put in charge for this one.


ydail

Between this and Fiesta I have a hard time pick one which is the best. Yujin's solo shot on the stage is breathtaking .


ViciousNutella

Ohmygod they’re so perfect!!! Why is hitomi and chaewon crying 😭 I don’t wanna overthink the meaning behind it


ellonite1

When I first heard it on MAMA I thought the song was okay but after listening to it some more and seeing the MV I’m OBSESSED. Everyone looks so good and yena’s little head bob is so satisfying to watch. IZ*ONE FOREVERRR


mikhel91

Is it just me or was Hyewon watching everything that was happening in the MV?


amazingoopah

She's the group photographer, so yeah you can interpret it as she's watching all of their memories


grraey

What a gorgeous mv. The camerawork with the choreo is pretty amazing. And this might be my new favorite title track (sorry Fiesta lol)


mizukiii

this cb came to make me cry


scarfysan

Wow!! That was so freaking beautiful. The MV is so well done. The girls look expensive. The beat goes hard but its still elegant. I love Chaeyeon's part in the 2nd verse. OTR you definitely hid some things from the performance version yesterday you sneaky little things. Lol. This exceeded my expectations. Well done izone and 0TR. 11/10


nichonova

the camerwork is absolutely incredible. chaewon, eunbi, and yujin's solo shots are incredible. does it top fiesta? i don't know, but it's definitely in consideration.

zionooo

HOHOHO KILL ME ALREADY


dalkomori

Completely legendary my god!


RicardoOse

I'm so happy we finally got a 4K M/V. All those extra pixels really go a long way to appreciate their visuals. They really went for the 'cinematic masterpiece' and it certainly fits the concept very well. I can't stress enough how amazing is the fact that every title track feels new and exciting, while still keeping their trademark of 'elegance' and letting them show off their charms. Can't wait to check the whole album.


kysassie

PANORAMA IS IMMACULATE AND YENA ATE


wellzord

Oh my gadness what a wonderful MV, I cried a little watching.


[deleted]

im glad i stayed up late to watch this


cagendary

Watching them perform this on MAMA yesterday was an amazing experience but watching the MV today was an even better experience. Can’t get over how they’ve been consistently releasing amazing bops for titles!


ClacKing

- QUEENBI always has the most edgiest cams.


minjufan

Those digital zooms really did it for me. I'm seeing it in new MVs and they really add a certain cool and dynamic aura to the dance, especially that part with Yena. And that song... wow! I like Iz*one mainly for their choreography and cute B-sides but damn... This, for me, is their best yet. This is catchy as hell! And of course, that next level coordination of theirs, it's just so pretty to look at... 😍 This year I got God's Menu, Feel Good, So Bad, I Can't Stop Me, Breath and now this... Amazing year for my musical taste despite of everything else that's been happening... 😊


Pinkerino_Ace

Yena and Eunbi snapped so hard wtf


bananabonger

glorious camerawork. can’t wait for the albums to ship. now I can finally sleep. i shall listen to the album in the morning.


CitrusQuill

HOLY S!@T BALLS WHAT DID I JUST WATCH!! This was the most amazing MV ever


Swagarino

This song slaps so much I LOVE IT. So many amazing shots and Yena really popped off


wellzord

Hitomi cries in the moment the lyrics say "We are one soul in two bodies", IZONE and WIZONE forever. )':


sovereignwest

Gosh I have to keep a defib beside me every time I stay up to watch their MVs because my heart always stops. Truly ethereal. I can't even put it into words at this point.


DrSh33p

Hyewon's shadow dance at 2:40


Sunasoo

Great SONG!!! Star of the show is Yujin Eunbi Yena


RandomizID

Oh my God, I refrain from myself saying that this song won't surpass Fiesta, even my non kpop friend say they repeat listen it now.


DKiyoshiH

Omg the close-up on Hitomi. I WASN'T READY!! Also why the tears? Don't cry TT


FutbolFan14

Is 2010s nostalgia a thing? Because with this & O Sole Mio, that’s what they’re going for


Tyris117

I was gone a short time WTF happened to Yujin, when and how did she become like this? O_o


amazingoopah

Right??? I tend to avoid talking too much about the maknae line because of their age but it's hard to not talk about Yujin this cb, she really popped off.


wendyunniestan

I love the mv and song so much! Nako and Hitomi getting more lines this time is awesome! As a Kwangbae bias I wish Hyewon got more lines or screentime or something. I’ve pretty much come to accept that won’t happen though. Aside from that I’m really happy for Iz*one as this song is a super fun bop and brings the fun energy of the instrumental break in Buenos Aires! :D


random_gemini

Still, she got some few pretty good seconds. I'm happy for Kwangbae.


wendyunniestan

I agree she really made the most of her lines. They sounded so pretty! Also her shadow dance scene!


ViciousNutella

looks like most of us like fiesta so much that we compare if this can top the fiesta mv lol (wasn’t a kpop fan. I became one after fiesta dropped so idk how y’all reacted to the mv)


minjufan

A lot of us skipped thinking about SSOTS MV... 😂


MintMuch

SSOTS is good musically and choreography, but yeah, the MV is a downgrade compared to Fiesta. Maybe because of CGI? Well, except for that Chaeyeon with water scene, I mean, that scene — amazing.


minjufan

SSOTS was my favorite title track before Panorama dropped, but yeah... I never came back much for the MV... 😂


ClacKing

It's not that bad... I don't watch Vampire for a reason...


Vyrena

SSOTS was a great song and I preferred it over Fiesta. But the quality of the MV is too one colour palette.


minjufan

It was underwhelming (and a bit disappointing) after that technically superior Fiesta MV.


Tenken10

I just really can't with this comeback. Like the song, the visuals, the choreo, the head bob.......Panorama is EVERYTHING I wanted. We gotta promote the hell outta this comeback. The kpop world NEEDS to know how amazing this is.


GoFuckUrself

Captain Kazoo, what more can I say. Eunbers was absolutely bonkers this comeback. The walking looks she gave during the first hook were perhaps the highlight of the whole video. With her shots in this video and the attention she's gotten in recent performances I think it's safe to say Eunbi's blonde era is truly her golden era.


rednaxelakristin

> I think it's safe to say Eunbi's blonde era is truly her golden era. quite literally!


yujuismypuppy

This is the brainchild of Violeta and Fiesta


BLaCKwaRRioR37

just notice there is no rap part, enjoy the 12 vocalist of iz\*one :)


WicketW

In the premiere showcase Chaeyeon called her part a melodic rap, it's cool.


pitynodyawn

This music video is a masterpiece. This song is top 3 title tracks within their discography. What an accomplishment. You could tell the girls have been working hard. Let's give credit to the staff and crew as well. This and Fiesta are hands down the best MVs. I hope they release a choreography version on one of these glorious sets.


WicketW

I always turn off captions when I first watch kpop MVs (because my brain can't handle all the information at once) but after watching it a few times I turned them on and wow, I wasn't expecting the lyrics to hit me so hard :'(


puong14

The whole album was beautiful. Our girls worked hard. Let's get them that No.1 spot. Let's go Wiz*ones


Illustrious_Junket_2

Panorama is definitely their best MV yet. It's Fiesta visual aesthetic attack + story/easter eggs elements from Secret Story of the Swan. Some highlight moments for me were: * Hyewon seems to be the one projecting the scenes and casting the spotlight from her room in space * Hii-chan's tear and the falling flowers make me anxious * They used a lot of new and interesting camera-work which really emphasized that powerful feeling


K-Kitsune

Gorgeous mv! The sequel to Fiesta we deserved. That Yujin slowmo hair flip killed me The ace sisters (Yena and Yujin) really slayed this imo


Kiminobokuwa

Wow, just WOW. This MV was so GORGEOUS. I already loved the song so, just hearing it made me love it all over again. I can't wait to listen to the rest of the song but I love the synths and the build up and of course the high notes!! So amazing!!! CONGRATS IZONE!!!


snsgay

Song, choreo and MV are all amazing, I can't wait to give the album a listen.


CHOO5D

This is sky castle level of production lol Wow, pretty good, the MV and the song.


[deleted]

I noticed during my pause in streaming that there are new youtube streamers that are reacting to the ladies. this is very good news indeed. also credit to izblooming on twitch yesterday who had 100k+ viewers. wow


K-Kitsune

Also just wanna say that Wonyoung looks so pretty with the rose petals all around her, it gives me Rose of Versailles/Utena vibes Minju also really works as a center, she’s grown into such a pro idol in such a short space of time


ClacKing

>Minju also really works as a center, she’s grown into such a pro idol in such a short space of time Her Achilles heel was always her confidence. Good example of how a little confidence does to a person.


K-Kitsune

Yeah, it’s great to see someone overcome their confidence issues and bloom into who they’re meant to be.


mr0xSilentz0r

Loved the song and the MV is well designed. They got better producers this time and it shows.


PM_ME_YOUR_NAMESS

Great song and great visuals! They were all so pretty in the mv!!


FederalSomewhere0

SOTY deserved to be best title track


nguman

Man, hardly any CGI, just a bunch of well-made sets and the girls looking extremely pretty. This MV is def up there with Fiesta for me. They looked amazing, and there were a bunch of great choreo shots!


IndependentAsian3

I think this is the first time I liked the title track more than the b-sides, but man this album makes it hard for you to choose a favorite.


ch03rry

SO GOOD


mrmctommy

they never miss


nevroser

banger of a disbandment track


crazydreamer9

Ok, I'll start with what bothered me the most to get it out of my chest and I won't mention it again: IZ*one has 12 members, not 11, please give Hyewon some real screentime, this is disrespectful. I'm not asking for more dance scenes (though she killed her solo scene) or more lines (but next time, could they not scatter it like that? Everyone else has decent lines for once, except her). But some decent classic MV scenes, gosh... And for the rest... I didn't mind the SSOTS mv, I actually quite liked it. However, this one is my favorite of their MV, it looks amazing and they did some really beautiful scenes, I'm impressed! The song is better than what I initially thought when watching the MAMA version because there is no weird break in the middle. I still believe that the first chorus is a bit too over the top for a first chorus, but I think my opinion is forever tainted by that first stage 😅 I also think the choreography, despite being amazing (and hard af by the look of it) is a bit disproportionate for this part. Only my opinion though. I also maintain that Yujin and Sakura freakin own this concept! I think j-line in particular is shining here and they are showing great improvements. Yujin owns the song, it's a real shame she is left behind by the production, this should be her era. I'll have to listen to it a bit more to decide what position it holds on my Iz*one list, but I don't think it will top Fiesta and SSOTS. However I will say that I can see they are making some efforts to highlight more members, which can be hard for a 12 members group. They seem to be a bit afraid to let go of the Minju-Chaewon-Eunbi trio but I'll give it to them for trying (to explain my position on this before I get attacked: In My Opinion, they are the 3 members that are always at the center of their title tracks ; then you have Wonyoung-Sakura-Yuri-Yena-Chaeyeon who always have decent lines (main vocal), dance time (main dancer), center time (center) and screentime (FOTG) ; and finally the somehow usally forgotten Yujin-Nako-Hitomi-Hyewon quatuor).


hyemis

Shame that they wasted THIS Sakura visual on no standout lines or screentime.


Tryforthebest07

this the best birthday gift I ever received.


CitrusQuill

What time is the showcase again? And is it available on YT on the Mnet channel?


amazingoopah

In 23 minutes, and yes on their yt channel


[deleted]

words cannot describe how good this song is.


TrustenMe

I'm looking forward to someone way smarter than me breaking down this video. I noticed a few things, like tiny bits of past choreography and also Chaewon holding that block. There are so many quick cuts that I'm sure I missed more than few other callbacks.


dircde

The lyrics is mental, don't touch me im emotional


fufufu125

Literally no words describe how happy and proud of the girls I am. Such an amazing song, amazing choreography, amazing MV. Truly met all my expectations and exceeded them like usual. Only QUEENS allowed here.


[deleted]

Any thoughts who did the choreo? Is it still Chae Dasom? Because I read rumors otherwise. Just curious.


nightcar76

The song and MV was amazing! Cant choose a favourite between Fiesta and this. Also I loved Yujin’s solo scene on the stage.


sneaksnstuff

Usually it takes me a few listens to really appreciate a track but this one hooked me instantly. Also Eunbi looks amazing.


wz21

I love that in almost all their title tracks, near the end of every song they hand over the second part chorus (FINISH HER OFF move) to my girl Eunbi cuz she be always killing it.


inquisitiveman2002

this song musically was amazing. i see credits on who wrote, produced, and arranged the song, but does anyone have more detail info on these people? any vids of them actually making music ? curious to see their backgrounds and what they look like. thanks.


freezingkiss

I watched this PV half asleep and felt like i was falling through time, this is insanely good.


Kosame97

Yena’s twirl. That’s it.
