[Tier 3] SKZ - Mixtape OH (MV + First Take)
Added 2025-03-04 15:09:17 +0000 UTCOH did we have a LOT to talk about with this one :D
First of all, thank you everyone for providing detailed context for this track. Really helped us appreciate it a lot more (though we're still confused about its link with SKZFlix XD).
So was Hyunjin being in this MV and singing like THE first time out of the blue that STAYs got to see him?? I mean, in hindsight, it makes sense that he'd be a big part of the MV cuz..it's NOEASY album after all and he was going to be in it for sure, but because of the story you told us we weirdly thought that maybe it'll be a 'wink wink' situation with Hyunjin being shown once or him having like a single line. Again, that makes no sense if you think about it, but wow everyone must've been happily shocked to see him :D
Okay, enough of that. We got a lot to cover today in the video so please enjoy, and we'll see you in the next track!! :)
Love <3

2025-04-14 23:28:51 +0000 UTCI don't want to say you should be there (because it's not exactly a happy phase) , but it was such a surprise to see Hyunjin there because we were not expecting him to be back nor it was announced that he would be back when the MV was released. so we were all happy and crying at the same time. this song definitely has a special place in my heart.

2025-03-25 05:30:49 +0000 UTCI’m always blown away by their first take episodes…that’s got to be incredibly nerve wracking. And they always deliver. Thanks again for another great video. Can’t wait to see you connect all the dots.

2025-03-05 11:29:24 +0000 UTCCompletely agree with what you said about Changbin in the second verse. I love when he shows various rap styles, and he nailed the conversational tone in OH. Silent Cry and Secret Secret are probably best watched together, but I personally think the order on the album makes Secret Secret hit even harder! Either way, I sooo look forward to the rest of the NOEASY album reaction!! Just to hype it up, The View has one of my favorite SKZ bridges. I'm sure someone else has dropped this link too, but here's an Mnet performance for The View: https://youtu.be/PKiX6nl4zNU?si=t8vky5vsfTCVf0bQ

2025-03-05 08:29:27 +0000 UTCHere's a great compilation of people reacting to Hyunjin in the video. It shows the state of Stayville at that moment. https://youtu.be/xEd3CDG273k?si=a94cxz8Bw2FftmfR

2025-03-05 02:46:13 +0000 UTCI will never forget the moment seeing Hyunjin in the video. I actually cried.

2025-03-05 00:16:35 +0000 UTCEven how his return was only officially announced on the same day, after this MV was out. It was released in the last days of june, and he returned on july 1st., so he wasn't even officially back yet and noone was expecting him. Now, we've seen howl in harmony and kingdom week, and years have passed, so we know he's in Noeasy, but back then it really wasn't a given. And ty for the link <3

2025-03-04 21:10:31 +0000 UTCYes. This was a random drop after kingdom, we were pending his return, when it played and we saw him the way I sobbed. And the mv plays into the storyline they have about them as a film group who went their separate ways finally coming back together. This mv is so damn dear to the fandom. You just really had to be there to understand. Everyone’s profile pictures changed to him. Shortly after it was announced he’d return to the group officially in one weeks time.

2025-03-04 20:56:39 +0000 UTCI can't even imagine the state of Stayville at this time, it must have been so emotional to have Hyunjin come back after all that time without him. They actually performed The View a few times but Inkigayo's isn't the full song and the KCON one doesn't have Hannie in it, so I'd say Mnet's is the best https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKiX6nl4zNU (Mnet)

2025-03-04 20:46:46 +0000 UTCLOL - Han saying that was so iconic.

2025-03-04 19:54:28 +0000 UTCIt was also mentioned how the English title is called Mixtape: OH because the Hangul for 애 (ae) looks like OH in English.
Elle
2025-03-04 19:47:07 +0000 UTCWhenever I see “oh I love this song!” I can hear Han in my head 🤣❤️ no matter in which context

2025-03-04 19:29:04 +0000 UTCI agree with what I’ve seen in some comments already. To truly understand the meaning of this MV to STAY I’d also recommend checking out a mashup of people reacting to the MV. https://youtu.be/D8XYfVwpgKM?si=QQAxyOtAZ0-xx3kh (This one also includes a clip of bang Chan watching it on chans room)

2025-03-04 19:27:56 +0000 UTCThis is one of those albums where every song for me is, "Oh, I love this song."

2025-03-04 19:12:22 +0000 UTCAlso....fun fact.....Stray Kids were the very first non-Japanese artists to be invited to perform on The First Take. For that first performance, they sang SLUMP in Japanese. On their second appearance on The First Take, they sang MIX TAPE: OH in Korean, making that the first non-Japanese language song to be performed on the channel. All previous performances by all previous artists had been in Japanese only. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_First_Take

2025-03-04 18:47:42 +0000 UTCThat last "EH" of Lee Know on the First Take gives me such a dose of dopamine haha. He attacks it like he owns the word lol
Tristana Keauna
2025-03-04 18:12:12 +0000 UTCThere is a video on YouTube that shows people's reactions when they first saw Hyunjin in the Mixtape: OH video and realized he was back. Lots of gasps and tears and even some screams.... It's pretty amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEd3CDG273k

2025-03-04 18:11:18 +0000 UTCI literally screamed when this mv was first released and saw hyunjin. Kingdom era was such a painful/bittersweet time for STAYs and SKZ as well ❤️🩹 Also, once you get to Silent Cry, I highly recommend this HAN fancam (definitely biased) but this has been iconic lol -- https://youtu.be/PNShazicZGI?si=a0nGeJXsub2xgGK-

2025-03-04 18:10:36 +0000 UTCKeep in mind that Felix saw written on the book "dreams come true to those who truly want them" and all the members are apart, so he makes a wish... I'll only say that HAHAHA
Lari
2025-03-04 16:18:38 +0000 UTCPLEASE PPLEASE rewatch this one your own time and Look at the clues that were there, Felix's Book and the flame at the end BEFORE you watch the VIew

2025-03-04 16:02:30 +0000 UTCOne of my fave songs of theirs. I discovered skz last summer so I always think of summer drives when I hear this song

2025-03-04 15:24:57 +0000 UTCIt’s not necessarily related in a straightforward way to skzflix but let me give it a go. You have the four MV’s in the series. On Track, B Me, OH and The View. At the end of B Me Lee Know is in a car accident and when he wakes up in skzflix he has the same cuts on his face as the accident from B Me. So potentially skz flix is an alternate timeline that takes place after the accident in B Me. (Or it’s not related at all. Who the heck knows with lore? 🤷♀️)

2025-03-04 15:13:56 +0000 UTCWe heard NOTHING about Hyunjin for months, and the first time you see him in the MV was literally the first sign of life since he went on hiatus. We did not know he was going to be in it at all. There's compilations of reactors reacting to that moment. Even Chan reacted to it on Chan's room and his smile when it happend ... I cry. Every time. Just came home, so this timing was perfect! <3
Rina
2025-03-04 15:12:43 +0000 UTCOh how i love this song. So I am a very new fan so I was not around for the time when hyunjin was on hiatus. However, I heard all about it and I've seen a bunch of videos about it. So when I watch this music video it makes me cry when I see him. Because I can only imagine how the stays at the time felt to see him again. Their first takes are always absolutely amazing. And this one is just top tier. Definitely a tropical house music vibe for this one. See I love this video so much because there are a bunch of little Easter eggs, but it's not even at Easter egg that's my favorite part. My favorite part is Bonnie just loving the minsung ship and smiling at their pictures on his phone 😂. Honestly, I'm not entirely sure how the lore works with this. I know there's the theory of Felix with the world jumping and the candles and blowing it out and making a wish and like going somewhere else. And then with the skzFlix you had IN with the coffee milk and then I think Hyunjin had the coffee milk when it came to the mixtape where him and Lee know wanted to date the same girl and it's just I don't know. There's so much going on that I just don't understand. Because you say it seems like a teaser. I guess it does fit into the whole SKZflix thing. Oh Han-C, you have ruined the word wet for yourself. D'some your shirt is very deceptive. Because I thought it was just a gray and black shirt. But the more you move I realize there's like a rainbow undertone. It's like a dull rainbow sweater. And I kind of love it. They all look absolutely amazing in this video but Seungmin's look is simple but i love it the most. I can't with you Han-C. Not going to lie. I do pay attention a little bit extra to see if anybody messes up. And so far the only person who's done that is bang Chan during the case 1431 take 😂. Seriously, my eyes are just drawn to Seungmin. I love the way Lee Know blinks when he's singing. Oh wow! I don't know how it connects to the view. So it'll be interesting to see this together.
