omg. nct dream stuff bc I can't livetweet it


HOT SAUCE / DREAMIES
okay I listened to this mini when I remembered it existed and it's not we young or we go up or we boom BUT if there's one thing dreamies know how to do it's release summer tracks that immediately make me forgive anything, again nothing on this album is as good as anything they've released previously, but they have the summer feel on like half the songs so it was good to me. renjun's styling is so fucking atrocious but I think he gets a decent portion of lines so
the only comment I have about the MV is that I liked the red black outfits of which I think jaemin got the nicest one. but it's really typical eboy? styling I'd say and you can't really go wrong with red/black/white combos. every other clothing choice is atrocious. well the printed suits aren't but only jaemin and someone else got that. and then. uhhhh. uhhhhhh. renjun in shopping cart cuz he's the shortest that was my first and only thought. I like the braids they did to his hair and nothing else. god the styling is soooo bad. I think the printed suits like would've fit the theme so I don't understand why Everyone simply did not get a printed suit. ugh whatever.

it's like really obvious looking at live performances but renjun and haech are always going to be the vocal standouts among dream. chenle just has a really baseline singing voice and jisung has some uniqueness with the deep tone but his singing isn't really 'melodious' ... on the other hand, renjun and haech both have really lovely voices and really pretty vocal colour and they just complement each other so well and it's really perfectly shown here at the second prechorus.
the other standout. and this is terrible taste on my part, is jaemin. obviously he has the face and he has like...he's not good at rapping but I feel like his inotation is so robotic that it's vaguely hypnotic ... the so bad it's kinda good twist.
I hate dream's super baggy styling, I think there is something deeply wrong with their stylist but like renjun's outfit seriously works here. I think it's because the pants are straight and loose as opposed to just baggy and loose, which helps make his legs and therefore him, look longer/taller + the colour of the jacket and the shirt is a fun combo + the dance actually works in favour of the outfit because you get pretty consistent peeks at his bodyline, where the belt really helps to highlight his waist. really good balance of accentuating his frame rather than trying to overcompensate for it
on the other hand. my fucking god. they hate him so bad. there's ways to make his hair look good. I believe this. I think this length looks really good on him because it adds the waifish quality to his face when it hangs loosely, but all they did here was just Really Really Really try so hard to make him look as much like a skunk as possible. they did succeed but man does his face work hard. I really like his eye makeup and the lack of lenses because his eyes look really cute and pretty and so so round. I have no idea how he managed to make this work but wow... RENJUNNNNNN of WORLDDDDD!!!!
anyway, the everything of this performance. styling makeup hair... is just really highlighting how Just Some Dude nearly every member of nct is. renjun is the only one not giving me just some guy vibes because (a) he's renjun (b) u can kind of get what the stylist was going for (c) his eyes are so cute and pretty here (d) skunk. the skunkosity of it all.
also this is one of my more liked tracks on the album and the dance is um. cute I guess.
my other comment is that I like it when jeno gets styled all puppy like he is here bc his typical cute stage mannerisms work really well with it but man half the time when I see him I feel like he didn't age well.
also I hate to say this but mark is the only one that feels like he got any effort put into him at all to make him look nice.

CAN U TELL WHAT I MEAN BY WHEN RENJUN'S HAIR IS DOWN HE LOOKS SO MUCH MORE WAIFISH AND SO PRETTY AND CUTE!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAA RENJUNNNNNNNN. RENJUNNNNNNNNNNNN. he looks so good here he looks so pretty here, this outfit and hair combo is soooooo effective and to me as always and forever he is sooooo charming and cute...... RENJUNNNNNNNNNNN. im renjun fan as u can tell. god look see. this is how u make this hair look good. he's so girl here it's crazyyyyyyy. they need to start HIGHLIGHTING the girl instead of trying to hide it. that's the answer. that's the way. I think it's soooo cuuuute when they're all dancing around the sofa and he's sitting and just vibing on it.... HELLO MOST BEAUTIMONIOUS RENJUNS OF WORLD.....
I think they sometimes hit the mark with this really well, but one of the most charming things about renjun's frame is how narrow his shoulders are...so like in this perf when he's on the couch, it comes through really well with how the shirt fits and hangs a little loose around them....idk it's very cute to me and very characteristic of him.
I also think this is a happy accident on account of his earpiece... but the key to this hair seriously is to like pin back the lower portion, and have the front bangs hang loose around his face... and it just looks soooooo pretty....
again the thing with the high waisted pants and belted waist making him look longer and working for his frame instead of trying to compensate for it...... you can really tell this is a good renjun look because I'm not paying attention to anyone else I have nothing to say about the rest of them. im Renjunfan ofc.
tho I will say I just like the outfit concept for this perf in general. I do think the stylists obsession with like... these ugly ass heeled boots needs to die....and most of them look like they're the front display of a forever21 collection but that's just because for most of them their jeans are styled really badly with their shirts versus renjun who's styled perfectlyyyyy. imo. like I think jisung also looks really cute.
last comment: RENJUN GIRLLLLLLLLLL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlV88qucfrk
only watching because I need a better outlook on what renjun's actual performance distribution is like. luckily I clicked on a perf that had pretty alright styling. like it's pretty basic kpop styling imo just colours/prints chosen to match the concept ... and as a fan of pretty tacky prints, I like most of the picks here. like mark's shirt, the collar of renjun's jacket is really epic imo, the printed pants are a nice touch. THE. FUCKING FINALLY. THEY HAVE SKINNY JEANS. like yeah sure skinny jeans are basic or whatever but holy fuck. we need to save dream from nct's baggy pants complex.
also renjun once again looks super beauitiful here because they styled his hair nicely...and also because seriously the fucking collar of this jacket fucks so hard. the emulation of preppiness without being preppy. SO GOOD. I like it when they make him look preppy but not nerdy I think that look really suits him because it fits both his character and his face and his frame....
OK the printed pants are a really, realllyyyy nice touch.
I feel like the decision to have jisung and renjun do the second prechorus together was like ... mostly to help jisung's voice. which I don't think is bad, I think just on it's own it wouldn't have kept the feel of the first prechorus since his vocal colour is so different. what I appreciate about this song is that haech leads all the yelling verses. if it was any other member I would've liked this song way less. and if it was mark I would've killed myself.
I hate to say this but there's never any need to give chenle a bridge. ever. like it's always so much more effective when it's renjun/haechan just because his voice is so baseline it doesn't feel like a bridge. yes that opens the arguement that jisung can get a bridge but I think they should just always do what they did in boom, and give him the last prechorus because it's such a good marker that this is the end of the song since his voice really does contrast so much with everyone else's
also imo they really do need to leave jeno's hair flopping all over his face it adds to his cute puppydog charm and parting it just takes away from it. on the other hand they need to find a balance with haechan this is getting out of hand.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsBr0j85Zvg
again these good outfits...renjun's hair is less wispy but because of that... The Absolute GIRLOSITY of him in this.... HELLLO?!
I never say this but it's because I feel like it's obvious and everyone already knows but jisung is a very charming performer!!! I feel like this is kind of a small thing but both the size and control? of his hands in particular adds that extra edge his dance has over everyone else. idk it's like such a small but huge enhancement
jaemin black hair really adds the toxic boyfriend look and I think it's soooooo....I hate to be someone who is gotten by jaemin of all fucking people but my taste in boys is bad and this is Known. like with light hair he just looks kinda gay or kinda too preppy with brown hair. with black hair? every evil bad boy borderline psychotic ya love interest. like this is what everyone imagines when they think of the darkling. or whatever. like jaemin with brown versus jaemin with black hair is like boy next door best friend love interest versus hot troublemaker sexy dark mysterious bad boy love interest. u know?
haechan looks Good. thank u. the bare minimum we haech fans could ask for.
like the thing about chenle starting the bridge here is that when he starts you think it's the bridge, and he finishes with renjun and you're like this is the end. and then haech comes in and then you think again, Oh this is the bridge. so like once it's over at haech's note...the start of the bridge registers as when haech came in rather than when chenle started it. also randomly having renjun enter with chenle is so stupid. I think the random addition of all the joint lines in this song is so stupid.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oc_PCBilrDE
I'm saying this with like absolutely no basis or knowledge but I thought this before in the other perfs from this livestream and like...I swear Renjun improved so much in singing which is one of those things where someone was already good before but somehow they're even Better Now....idk his like tone switches? are sooo effortless and pretty....mannnnn....MANNNNN... also I feel like his 'main vocal' feel is off the charts with this comeback... like with how dream is distributed the concept of 'main vocal' really doesn't exist imo but somehow renjun is claiming it OK. I think it might be the amount of random adlibs he has.
this is the song that got me from this album. like the album was whatever and then i heard this and I was like Ok It's A Good Album Now. what can I say I can be gotten with nostalgic summer sounds!!!!
as someone who hates mark In Dream. um. Im being extremely sniped rn by my Mark Love for Mark Outside Of Dream. [profile] 2:26...ok ... ok.... OK *tries very hard not to say anything* man. that's really cute.
I really like jeno's shirt.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hrEOaXWP1s
yes I can be gotten by fanservice it's part of the renhyuck shipping experience. mark looks really cute here also. also perfect example of how well renjunhaech voices work sooo well together...renjun's tiny little bit of aegyo hepled my enjoyment of this greatly too.
IMO HAECH PERFECT ENDING FAIRY!!!!
diggity is the same genre of noisebop that dripping 119 and quiet down are no?
I seriously feel like renjun really finetuned the control he has over his voice....listening to him is like evocative of the same feel as watching jisung dance...like idk I feel like you can just Tell that they're really good at what they're doing... I feel like what really stands out about jisung's dancing is that you can just tell how precise he is.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X1LDaxDl80
once again I hate to say it but jaemin is seriously so fucking handsome and op with black hair. it's making me forget all the ways he's a freak
ngl...#EnjoyingSomeJenoJaeminChest

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_lHuq2tlX8
THE PRINTED SUITTTTT... man I love printed suits because they feel really scummy and it feels like you're about to get scammed and jaemin being the one wearing it just makes it soooo much better. situationally soooo perfect imo.
renjun's almost egirl look...the little braids...the wisps.... good good great great... stylistically assigned GIRL
like OK the difference between haech and jaemin sharing the prechorus and jisung and renjun sharing it is, is that u can tell nahyuck are sharing so jaemin gets lines and haechan's obviously leading, and if it was the same case with sungren renjun would lead, but jisung's the one leading when they do it ... so it really just comes off more like renjun's supporting him
also the sound quality for this perf is like ??
renjun also doesn't get enough lines in this song to justify me sitting here and watching this many performances of it. but here I am. A Renjunfan first and a dreamzen second

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3TFByCDg2Q
FUCK 7DREAM. ALL MY HOMIES HATE 7DREAM. THIS IS HOW MARK CAN RUIN THE MOST PERFECT SONG OF ALL TIME.
godddddd...this song is still so fucking crazy good.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UB1JOQ2sVhE
haech looks good here.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArtxvtJdr0o
renjun absolutely a girl here. also looooove jisung's outfit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg1L5yYPHZM
renjun absolutely serving more girl looks here. also my other top pick from the album. it sounds exactly like rainbow and dive into you is approximately around the ballpark of both of those so you can understand.
also jeno hair looks soooo perfect like this. and I love that u can tell he's genuinely sweet while jaemin's a total asshole just by the difference in how they try to keep along by lip syncing/singing along.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmDLS6Jn_nA
RENJUN IS A GIRL. HES A GIRL. HES LITERALLY A GIRL.
everyone looks so soft and fluffy that it has to be my favourite dive into u stage. also I like this stage waaaay better than hot sauce but that'd be a given.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXB_8nx6q6w
I originally thought the beret would take away the girlness but because his hair sticks out choppily in the back he's still very girl here. jisung's specs make him look soooooo perfect baby mouse. haech smile when renjun's miming tugging at him is v v cute also. jaemin my asshole boyfriend who plays golf on the weekends or whatever in this exact outfit. GOD SORRY. GOD I'M SO SORRY. TRUST ME I HAVE SHAME FOR LIKING JAEMIN. I DON'T KNOW WHY GOD HASN'T SPARED ME FROM THIS YET.
looking once again at renjun, my problem is that even when my faves look unfortunate I will find it charming and cute somehow still. IDK I've liked renjun since debut it has to be a given that I like him when he looks awkward and in the midstages of puberty you know?
