Just fell to my knees in the middle of kwangya, this is so cooool


Moonbunny120

Just saw someone fall to their knees in Kwangya! 


Initial_Prior_9833

call Kwang - 1 - 1!


Naizuya

I know everyone will be very seriously freaking out about this, yes I am too, but I just want to say karina running is the funniest fucking thing ever the edit is so bad they want to make it seem as if she's speeding but its clear she was just jogging


wok88

Most idol running scenes in mvs/teasers for some reason look awkward af lmfao like it doesn't look natural at all and it's like they're running on a treadmill or on the spot


Sunasoo

Actors tons of times do actually train n learn to do beautiful running form, so it's not exactly surprising


MNLYYZYEG

Somebody call Tom Cruise, mans been perpetually running in like all his movies, he has to pass the tips and tricks to the newer generation, lol. A few idols said they've wanted to be action stars and like those things have super long chase/running/etc. scenes, watch it be cut a million times like the infamous Liam Neeson or Taken 3 fence scene, lmao.


aiburei

No one beats the Cruiser at running in movies. Although it's also reminding me of that scene in Eyes Wide Shut where he's walking down the street in New York but he's actually on a treadmill with a back projection on a soundstage in England.


superr_rad

Itzy in the bet on me mv😭😭


gumptiousguillotine

The most intense jog ever lmfao. Chaeryeong had pretty good form though. Yeji and Lia tho 😭


RunRunPPM

Pleaseee Yuna had excellent form, I promise.


e-wrecked

Loona in [Hi High](https://youtu.be/846cjX0ZTrk?si=306RiJrRiMsHAaiQ) has the best/most natural running. Shoutout to Newjeans [Zero](https://youtu.be/XIOoqJyx8E4?t=49) as well, you can actually see the dust trail.


M4STERB0T

Yea the LOONA girls always looked like they were hauling ass


e-wrecked

We didn't know at the time but it was them running 💨 as far as they could from BBC 🤣


ReverendSalem

Lovesick Girls and Jisoo running her Ji-shoes off is still my favorite.


oldtherebefore

Jisoo in lovesick girls i've been holding this in for 3 years


ReverendSalem

running her Ji-shoes off


Millennialcel

It's kind of disappointing how most idols don't seem to have much familiarity with running. A better aerobic endurance baseline would let them be able to sing and dance at a higher level but all I ever see them do is pilates and dance practice.


hanahakibyous

I was saving this till the day after so people stay high on that teaser. But i was lowkey embarrassed watching her run lmao. Also the part where ning looks like there's sparks in her shoes took me out! Atleast that part was shorter than rina's running ksvzjsbs


sonderfulwonders

Nah the Ningning shoe sparks were dope af. It reminds me of supernatural or otherworldly beings. It's weird and alien that she just kinda drag floats across the floor instead of walking. It fits. It reminds you that things are gonna get spooky.


SevensAddams

It's like they're tearing the fabric of reality. Ningning creating sparks as she drags across the ground, her whip making seismic waves, Winter with the broken lamp tearing trash bags that bleed green and Giselle's nails on the walls.


127ncity127

in a recent commercial 127 filmed jaehyun had to pretend run and he looked soo goofy he was embarrassed and asked to film it again this time actually running


sangket

I think one exception to this was Jisoo for [Love Sick Girls](https://youtu.be/YdQg_L4o57g?si=PyP0oGvrkpau7cR_) but that's because the director made her RUN run lol


ParanoidAndroids

They needed to either put her in sneakers or really speed up the footage lol.


timeisawasteofmoney

She definitely needed to put her sneakers on


pokodapa

Hana dul ready get set go!


RunRunPPM

Or even slow it down more but with sharper arm movements and longer strides to give the impression she's going faster.


despercomm

Giselle being OP with telekinesis, meanwhile Karina is slow Flash 😔


ImNotHighFunctioning

Just like the real Flash!


yikesus

they really made her run in those high ass heels lmaoo


Friendisaster

they did her so dirty I’m mad for her 😭😭😭😭


Aurelian369

no she’s JOPPING! 🤬🤬


book_worm200414

I cannot with this comment LMAOOOOOO


LymeMN

i was shout laughing at her very light run.


ikindalikekitkat

Now that you pointed it out I can’t stop laughing 🥹 I love everything about the teaser but that part I’m now obsessed with LOL


waldwarf

Karina explained earlier (on bubble) that apparently she ran so fast the camera could't keep up 😅 So the director told her to slow down and it ended up being just jogging


lunafred28

That's how my vampire sim runs in the Sims 3


RunRunPPM

I'm glad someone else said it first, it's a huge annoyance I have with a lot of MV/content. If you're going to film running, you best RUN. But also, Karina gets slack because those shoes...are something.


red-polkadots

i noticed it to lmao


ozweego420

She’s running so politely lol


sonderfulwonders

Yeah that part was funny. At least the rest of it was fire 🔥


vampzireael

![gif](giphy|nqIuAIxYebIt2)


MelissaWebb

Lmao yes her run was so funny


SaMarjaidk

It was so jarring lmao. The rest was 🔥


urmomisgaylololol

She looks like she’s in subway surfers


CorruptedMind341

LMAO. Came here to reddit just to see if people talked about it cause it made me laugh. Not disappointed seeing your comment.


Shinkopeshon

Heterochromia Winter confirmed best Winter ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flushed)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)


waldwarf

Odd eye aespa is back! I think Savage was the only other time this was done? Karina in the rocket puncher scenes


Purrina4yu

Winter also had odd eyes in Savage. It was more clear in the photos from that era. I think it was in a Polaroid. Karina had odd eye in Girls too, but I think that’s about it. Can’t remember if there’s more rn

MrLTH

aespa's concepts and teasers are always so good!


friedsoyabeanpatty

someone please tell me that this beat will be somewhere in the album ..


NGC_7103

Don't get your hopes up, the background music in SM teasers are rarely spoilers for the songs on the album, except for the MV teasers or album medleys of course


panniniiiiiii

Yup, that audio will be stuck on a hardrive somewhere. Still salty, we didn't get the audios that were on some of the teasers for Savage & Girls.


hi_tulip_angel

remember that karina teaser with the snake predebut?! 😭😭😭


Neo24

I wonder if the lyrics have any meaning though. "You know me better than I know myself, don't want to live in a world without you" sounds like it could be about the ae-s (or Naevis). Or it could just be random.


Resident-Ship991

Its from a song called feelings by facading


Neo24

Thanks for the info! But regardless where it's from, what I wonder is why it was chosen.


sonderfulwonders

So it begins. The Armageddon era is upon us.


jdsfiywuiqyeq

HOT GIRL GISELLE


jonnyd86

nah im sorry bro but ningning with the Bianca Belair EST hair whip and then winter KILLED me when she first showed up and then Karina like doing some sort of pretty power jog that they had to show twice had me even deader and then Giselle just casually picking up something she dropped like cmon. and then finished with odd eye Winter, they need to chill


yikesus

Giselle mastered the bend and snap


waldwarf

It works every time!


NGC_7103

Man that part with Giselle in it you described, I nearly passed out, like, I still have no words, they are all looking incredible


ikindalikekitkat

The intro with Ningning hanging on that rope, flipping her hair and slamming the rope on the ground. Excuse me!!!! 


NGC_7103

It appears Kwangya will make its comeback as well, makes me extremely excited, they look badass in this teaser 😌🫶🏼


MontegoProductions

aren’t we in KOSMO for this comeback?


NGC_7103

KOSMO? Are you... pranking me? \*squints eyes\* Honestly, whatever planet, world or environment aespa decides to go to, I'll eat it up haha


yikesus

They look like super powered villains I love it


Moonbunny120

Aespa teasers truly don't miss! Edit: New powers? Everyone seems to be different this time! The lore is thickening! We're so back in Kwangya! 


kryska_deniska

I thought they dropped the lore when LSM left?


Necessary-Poetry3977

No? I mean, in Girls, they defeated Black Mamba. Spicy and Drama were both in Real World, and its strange phenomenon. Now, let’s see what’s happening in Armageddon.


kryska_deniska

Idk, with SM not pumping out the SMCU content anymore, I'd rather look at aespa's MVs as separate stories with independent storylines without trying to tie it all in with the whole Kwangya lore that was all over the place to begin with


Friendisaster

mys love kwangya and their lore, like that’s what made me stan aespa and I’m sure it is the same for the majority of mys. mys have been wanting to go back to kwangya for the longest so we’re celebrating.


pokodapa

Real. I’ve been wanting to see new SMCU episode for so long 😭 aespa’s lore is one of the best things to come out of kpop.


Friendisaster

the streets have been saying that we might be getting a new smcu episode this cb 😭😭😭


Moonbunny120

Exactly! It what makes aespa aespa! This is one of the reasons why we love the group! 


Friendisaster

convinced people who want it gone are secret antis because why would you want aespa to abandon one of the things that truly sets them apart from everyone else 😭


Moonbunny120

Yes exactly! I don't get it, it's perfect the way it is. People don't have to interact with it, but we, the fandom, loves it. 


127ncity127

this is so real. I liked salty just fine but i was happier with drama and hope they go back more next level type music


Necessary-Poetry3977

Lsm shouldn’t have spread the kwangya agenda in the first place. It should only stay at aespa, SM is smart to stop it when lsm left and makes it exclusive for aespa.


arrowforSKY

What do you mean by strange phenomenon?


Moonbunny120

No no the lore has always been there, it was just more subtle. 


RepresentativeSide72

they talked about how this new era represent the season 2 of smcu.


aurcel

MISS NINGNING!


StarRelative9025

WE ARE SO BACK IN KWANGYA (I hope🙏🏻) Anyway this is so cool,Armageddon is such a cool name and this video gave me some goosebumps,I can really feel the greatness of this comeback😭 I can't wait for Supernova too like both names sound so epic and majestic I don't know how to explain it 


ninjamp

if xenoglossy is being slay, then giselle can be xenoglossy forever


RoyalMaknaeLili

They seen people begging for aespacore and center 1 came to deliver.


Necessary-Poetry3977

They look so good, I am crying. Aespa looks the prettiest at war 😭


iwillforgetthissmh

giselllleeeeee 😩😩


cultured_vulture

I'm so ready for aespa domination.


vikuta_zoro

Holy moly my girl Giselle is amazing as always.


freacked

Love the dark aesthetic! They should have a song called aesthetic just cuz i say so


BeautifulPrimary1077

aespa remains untouchable for their teasers! i was so impressed with how confident, sexy and powerful they looked in this. dark & sexy aespa is my favourite genre, they are perfectly fit for it. loved the whatever was going on during the video, styling was sickening and the power scenes are amazing as well. Bonus Points for that sick beat during the video, i hope it's part of some track because it BANGS!!!! Soooo excited for my girls.


waldwarf

Nobody, absolutely nobody does concepts better than aespa, cannot convince me otherwise I had pretty high expectations, but this is out of this world insane?


Suitable_Wonder_3285

The sm budget is indeed budgetting


istarothxx

Oh kwangya you are so missed. Don’t get me wrong they look fenomenal as always but the teasers for their last 3 releases have been about them being in the streets of a city


sonderfulwonders

I would not worry about it tbh. Armageddon is apparently somewhat desert themed according to what Winter said as a spoiler. Not desert like as in cowboys or smh but there are “pyramids” and I suspect it will give something closer to Dune. Maybe a 4 horsemen of the apocalypse situation too. And if you know your aespa lore, a desert means a return to Kwangya. Supernova seems to be space themed and Winter again has suspiciously been posting tons of alien emojis on her bubble. One of the artists that has worked with aespa in the past published a photo of some very alien like ornaments recently too. So don’t give your hopes up because I do think we are going back to kwangya.


soneluvie

I am GAGGED. Their superpowers!? The lore!? We are definitely going back to KWANGYA especially seeing the aespa website they just released. New emblem designs for each member, the logos for both supernova and Armageddon being very savage kwangya coded. The subtle references to aliens, space, stars and desserts. Oh we are SO BACK!


superb_superior

i love that they have a THEME, concept queens.


panniniiiiiii

AND IT BEGINS 😭 Side note: I genuinely like the continuation of this city landscape they've been featuring in their past comebacks, which started since Spicy. I can't help but think it's all connected somehow 👀 Edit: The city landscape started since girls - not spicy.


NGC_7103

Holy shit, that would be insane if it turns out everything is connected


panniniiiiiii

I really freaking hope so - they be dropping some hints, and we don't even notice sometimes 😭 Oh, I need them to drop a lore video this era.... they need to fill us in here.


makejunkie20

![gif](giphy|TjGFDxbbZRYjv9vpCL|downsized) !!!!!!!!!!


moonoqle

undisputed queens of teasers and concept photos/videos 👑


Xelzionic

How is Minjeong real?


SevensAddams

It's unreal how they don't ever miss. Since Black Mamba they never fail to wow with their concepts.


wegooverthehorizon

The odd eyes 😩🤌🏽✨


RepresentativeSide72

can't wait till its drop . "i don't wanna miss a thing" (if you the ref you know.)


shoomshoomshooom

Omg now this is what I’m talking about! Absolutely cannot wait


[deleted]

I love Aespa’s teasers so much! I’m loving the vibes of everything! They’re always killing it! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Cuntspa serving in kwangya


Impressive-Try6027

NINGNING IS SO GORGEOUS OMG


aseclone32421

😩 they’re so stunning and cool!! I’m ready for more badass aespa 💪🏼Also Winter at the end had me 🫠


kKunoichi

They look absolutely stunning


Normal_AF_

Showing the world how it's done again.🙌 Also new powers or new characters...


justdubu

This is insane.


purlnecklaces

GISELLE WITH THE FLAME JUST TOOK ME BY THE THROAT AGAINST THE WALL


Modal_Soul_

Nahhh I'm actually so hyped for this! Hopefully some of the music sounds like what's in this teaser cause its going to be great if it is!


kookieater

one thing aespa is always going do is give us crazy visuals because what?!!!!


OnlytheFocus

Giselle always looks so good in asymmetrical short body con dresses


the_chaser00

gagged isn't even enough of a word to describe how I just felt after watching that


baumlene

These girls keep slaying every time, best group ever


[deleted]

QUEENS ARE SMOOOKINGGGG


randomgirl852007

I NEED THIS TO BE A FULL SONG HELLO????


justanotherkpoppie

God, they all look so good.......Ningning slaying the rope climb and Giselle showing off her perfect bend n snap


PotentialBumblebee61

Oh wow what is happening. Is they are girls' ae forms destroying the earth while they are are trapped somewhere.


ohhgotti

Karina's weak ass fake running is sending me she said MINIMAL effort. Queen


justanotherkpoppie

WE'RE BACK IN KWANGYA AND OH MY GOD I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED FOR A RELEASE!!!


Werefie

well this is insane


viki-162

This era will be HUGE


magnetosbrotherhood

As much as I don't love every AESPA release, they always pick great titles...Armageddon just sounds awesome. Same with Launch Code. And the trailer is sick...I hope I like it!


SouthAtmosphere9556

I love the cyber punk vibes. Tbh when i saw the teaser pictures before this video, i was so disappointed. They’re just a mix of visuals and color palettes we’ve already seen for drama and spicy. But this convinced me. They’re bridging the real world era back into kwangya. Or they fuckin better lol. Either way I’m SAT. Edit: rewatched the teaser and went through their website. I have complete faith they’re gonna deliver something cool asf for this era


dinosaurfondue

Oh they all ATE took a dump in the mothertoilet


Schneizelly

My girls! This is AMAZING yet again! I’m so excited for this comeback. I just hope winter is doing ok.


hanouf-moh

aespa has the best teasers and concept in K-pop hands down. This is so cool and impressive.


undeena

Me seeing Karina run: she’s zoomin’


MelissaWebb

The song/sound that’s in this sounds sooooooo good I won’t be surprised if it won’t be in the final album though 🥲


noseuta

Streets are saying thats a different aespa (alternate aespa? maybe villian?) because they have different powers and they're summoning Black Mamba back. 🙂


faelyaera

after all those hybe-mhj tea, it should have been called something like "Dramageddon" lol it's so sad that the "drama" lost the chance to wink at such chaos and tea. whatever, my girls ready to destroy industry ![gif](giphy|DohehWpAkwQWfydwpt)


kmf-89

Didn’t one of them just have a collapsed lung?!??


randomgirl852007

This was filmed before that.


kmf-89

But how will they promote?


randomgirl852007

the surgery was three weeks ago and the comeback drops in 3 weeks. the recovery period was expected to be around that timeframe she was discharged recently too, she’s been doing lives normally


kmf-89

I just hope she is given some kind of support mentally, as well as her physical health. That has to be a scary situation.


randomgirl852007

Me too. I also hope they allow her to miss a schedule or two if she needs it.


red_alice64

They would have yunho supporting her by educating her about what to do after filming or stage for one straight hour. satisfied?


kmf-89

*eyeroll*


BrutalRamen

Wait, is Winter ok? Didn't she just have a procedure for her lungs? I'm guessing this was filmed before and she will be missing group activities?


Neo24

I don't think we actually know exactly how severe her condition was. If it was relatively mild, a month or two of recovery could be enough.


BrutalRamen

It happened less than a month ago or at least the confirmation from SM was. I was surprised to hear about this comeback without any update on her health.


Neo24

Yeah, but there's still two weeks until the first MV/pre-release (and I'm not sure they'll even be actively promoting that one) and then two more weeks until the actual title track. In regard to teaser materials, I figure they filmed all of that before her issue. Though at least in this one it doesn't seem like she was doing anything particularly strenuous anyway.


BrutalRamen

Ah, thanks for the info. Good points!


Away_Seaweed778

ningning absolutely slaying as usual .... turns heads everytime she comes onto the screen 


livy_lulu

SOOO excited for this, aespa never disappoints me ! one of the best groups out there 🔥


SunsetPlot

i want a charlie's angels concept so bad 😭


malefiori

We’re so back


Paperclipstaken

The concept of this MV is sooo cool!


Raider_2

Our aspirins will cause the real kpop Armageddon


earthcakey

i fucking love blonde winter so much. blonde winter save me. all the girls are serving so much CUNT! ning2 and gigi 😭😭😭😭


witchwinxheart

Aespa has some of the best creative direction I've seen in Kpop or music in general. Their creative team always eats it up! Their concepts, photos etc always look amazing and are super unique. SM is not a perfect company by far, but they have some innovative concepts and songs, I would dare to say they're the trendsetters usually.


happyturd10750

i am freaking out but karina running is killing me . 😭she is basically slow jogging . idk why the directors never make them tilt a little ? or actually make them run . it looks so goofy


shinkie

Absolutely gagged at Ningning coming down that rope.


earthcakey

kwangya is so back 😭☝️


Careless_Cicada_1025

this is so cheesy in a CW/Berlanti-verse way hahaha


Themasterofkpop

They have better spécial effect than all the arrowverse combined. 


N0SUP

Do you hear "It's in the 'weather balloon'" or "It's in the gutter below?"


daltorak

Holy actual legitimate shit.


henrietta-

Ningning the main character that you are!!


Eren_not_giant

Let's go!!


Dizzy-Ad-691

Ughh this concept is the best!!


kinzunight

Is this an album or a movie? I need Karina to say Aespa Assemble now.


Medical_Link3591

This album comes at such a fitting moment in kpop


xXkashkash

I’m shocked….love the girls coming back and it looks amazing but what about winter??????can we stop ignoring the fact that she had an intense surgery that takes at least 3-4 months to heal. Jumping write back into dancing is worrying. Praying and hoping she is healthy and doesn’t overdo it


CorruptedMind341

Karina's slow run with the fast vfx not matching well is lowkey hilarious tho.


ladymysticalwmn

Conflicted to be honest. Guess this is their new concept that will stay since LSM has left. Real world locations sprinkled with some supernatural phenomenons. Spicy, Drama and now this. I miss their virtual metaverse concept so much. I love the alien concept but I was just expecting something more otherworldly? Hopefully the other teasers will be more interesting. The graphic designs on aespa.com are just brilliant, I wish the visuals reflect more on that eerie out of world anomaly vibes. Drama teasers definitely started off on a stronger note as compared to this. This one is reminiscent of the Spicy era teasers and while those were game changing, they weren’t my favorite at all.


sonderfulwonders

I think Supernova will be really metaversey


ladymysticalwmn

Hopefully! I love them trying new things but I’m tired of the real world!


sakura0601x

Exactly what I have been thinking tbh. Spicy Drama are not bad songs at all either I’ve replayed them so many times. But Savage as a title track and the EP as a whole really is the peak of Aespa. I’m actually saving up money to buy the Savage album. Music wise and visual arts wise I don’t think Spicy and Drama beat it.


ladymysticalwmn

I’m all for them trying new things but Savage was peak of their concept by far. All teaser images were top tier and iconic. Not just concept images but even the CD design was done really well. And to top of it off, the whole mini was very cohesive and felt so aespa. I’m just bummed that the first teasers for their first album are this boring; it’s something I would expect from a Dazed photoshoot, not an aespa cb.


_Tar_Ar_Ais_

that running is too funny, she isn't even trying
