bro, ur video eval is on point, u got it

This mv is dope. I can't find any song like it.

Im subscribing now bec somehow your thoughts are on point…love your reactions?❤?much love from PILIPINAS!!!??????

You pretty get the gist of the whole song. Well done to you.

If you like rapping, then you should react to OC Dawgs “Pauwi nako” in the Wishbus. It’s a Filipino song which means “I’m coming home.” It has subtitles so you can also follow what they are saying, if you can keep up with the reading. Lol.

Thank you for your efforts in understanding the message of the song 🙂 Glad you like this! Hope you can try to get to know them more by watching their live performances and Korea Times Interview 🙂

You are really a good reactor sir ?…it is my first time watching you but im impressed ?

Thank you ?

PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ‼️‼️
The whole video tells their story from scratch to what they are now and what they can still do in the future. In the first part, they told us their story when they were bashed, discriminated and put down. Saddest part was when even the Filipinos did step down on them. They were even judged that they sound Kpop and there will never be a Ppop. They were in the news but didnt stop. They used those negativities around to pull positivities and courage to go ahead! I think Justin is a dreamer. Looking at the Earth but blindfolded. Stell hold some seeds trying to tell us to dig and dig, plant something and in the future, there will be plenty of fruits. Ken is like a king in a throne made of junk. He said in the lyrics that he picked up and collected all the trash, and that lifted him up but he keeps telling us that even he has the power now, our feet should always be on the ground. Josh in real life didnt have an education degree. But on his part he said we are all different but sometimes, those so-called educated people are the worse. And he wont pretend. He started taking off those fancy clothes because that will never define him and what he can do.

Then the dreamer Justin finally took out the blindfold. Now he is ready to turn those dreams to reality. Seeds from Stell's hand grew. From the scene when he was holding soil, raining and lightning like a storm, it changed into a clearer nature scene. Then there comes the part when they are in soldier costumes which has a resemblance of Generals during the old times in Philippines. An image of a general signifies courage, focus and determination. Those people they were trying to pass through are the bashers and those who didnt like them. But eventually, the same people became their fans and they celebrate together with SB19s music. Then it sounds like it became an anthem telling us that yes, Ppop is real. We have our own sound, our own music! Thats why Filipinos, let us all raise our flag! They represent our country but in a bigger picture, they used a flag with question mark ❓which represents each of us to show us that everybody has his/her own flag to raise. The music video shows what hope, courage, determination and God above can do.

What did u say sb19 is buang?

Reactors with brains with them running. not just seating and shaking their heads?

So far his a good reactor

Your reaction and interpretation is real good! The only thing that stopped you from grasping the full meaning was that you got fixated that 'flag' means country flag ? The song is really a diss song for the haters out there

SB19 gave their fans something beyond anyone's expectation. Literally jawdropping.

New subscriber here

Great analysis!!! The red and black flags were also representation of the 1st flags used during the Philippine revolution to go against its colonizers. Then they used ? for it to mean whatever anyone wants to stand for and to always swing it proudly?Its an anthem song for everyone!

Dude, I like your reaction video! It's a good mentality to look for symbolisms in the song and video of SB19's MVs. That's about 75% of what makes SB19's MVs enjoyable–all the "puzzles". The puzzle piece you are missing to comprehend this song enough is the history of SB19 (and PPop in general). If you want to understand more, I know my comment will be a long one but please bear with it, and read it to the last sentence.
Actually, we fans don't really mind if people don't like what they see/hear. We respect that, but it is a DEFINITE requirement to at least TRY to digest the message that the group is trying to share before they decide to like it or not. Most of their songs–even their earlier ones are majorly composed of lyrics that really come from the depths of their hearts.
To understand this song in particular, you have to know how SB19 was before. You see, PPop used to be almost like a laughingstock in the entertainment industry. SB19 wasn't the first PPop group but before SB19 rose to stardom, PPop was never taken seriously.
The reason mostly is prejudice. Most people were not really sold to the idea of idols singing and dancing like KPop is known for. People immediately judge them saying either they were third-rate copycats or they just were not good enough (mostly visually). People didn't seriously consider them as idols because they had this visual standards that idols should look like KPop stars–you know, fair skin, slit-eyed, v-faced and feminine-ish, basically the Korean beauty standard which obviously is quite different from Filipino facial qualities.
Now SB19 took the brunt of this bashing mainly because they were kind of in the gray area. SB19's members are all Filipinos, but their company, ShowBT Ph, is actually founded by a Korean, and is a subsidiary of a Korean entertainment company. This company saw potential in the capabilities of Filipinos, not only talent-wise, but also our capability to understand and communicate in English–which makes it easier for globalization. So their company was SERIOUSLY training them the way KPop idols were trained and they kept promoting SB19, and that didn't sit well with the trolls and PPop haters.
Now ShowBT Ph is just a new company and quite frankly, it is a very small company compared to the big labels here in the Philippines, companies that by the way remained stagnant for almost 50 years (you only need to watch a couple of Ph TV shows to know how BADLY stagnant it has been). Being a new company in a foreign country, they were also learning the ropes and hardly had any proper means to execute their business properly, so it was kind of difficult to promote SB19 effectively and fend off attacks from bashers.
To clarify, the reason why SB19 was attacked was people also mistook their intentions. People thought they were just Filipinos trying to get into the KPop scene (and marketing themselves in Korea along with other KPop groups), but they are not. SB19 was trying to be a PPop group, then again PPop had bad rep in terms of promotion. In fact, most people don't know this but early fans know that SB19 had a KPop group counterpart called "BNF" which disbanded.
It was so bad that when SB19 debuted, their first song (called "Tilaluha") was literally snubbed. The media didn't even take notice. Bashers seemed to be provoked (like "Lol, how dare they. Time to put them in their place," kind of thing). So SB19 received more unwelcome comments from people who did not even BOTHER TO LISTEN to their debut single–which by the way is a very wonderful song that is VERY TYPICAL of Filipino ballads. But the company trained the boys well, and they boys had a set of values that work well with the trademark resilience of Filipinos.
Despite that, it's very difficult to live in the Philippines. There is a reason why we are resilient–we face many far too many challenges just to even live quietly, so we have to adapt by being resilient and practical. Being a trainee and not earning much for over 4 years is not practical at all. The bashers they can handle but this is quite a bit threatening for their livelihood. Even if they can just leave the bashers alone, the prejudice against them was a huge blockage to their promotion and to the recognition they so deserved. Their songs aren't selling despite being great songs and they were not being given opportunities to show what they can do. So the members decided to follow BNF's decision to disband, but they wanted one last shot–their 2nd single would have been their last. Because it was supposed to be their last single, the members decided to pour their heart out into the song and the dance that comes with it. So they wrote about their hopes and dreams and about not giving up. They just wanted to say that they did everything before they finally retire. I recommend you listen to it. It's a very wonderful song called "Go Up". It makes you feel happy and hopeful for the future, but if you knew why they wrote the song, you'd be heartbroken.
Like the song before it, "Go Up" was a very wonderful song. And it was also a very new for Filipinos–we've never heard anything like it. Think KPop, but very very Filipino, not only in lyrics but in execution and atmosphere.
Now while "Go Up" was a wonderful song it really didn't gain traction as well. On 2nd Sept 2019, they uploaded their dance practice video for it on Youtube, the dance execution was really LIT people first thought they were KPop idols. Well, they ARE idols, just not for KPop people shared it on Twitter and Facebook and it spread like wildfire.
Overnight, they gained thousands of fans. The mere hundreds of bashers couldn't even leave a dent. How could they? The song itself was clearly a bop and the clean precise dance execution SB19 showcased in their dance video left even the bashers nothing to pick on.
Because their 2nd single was such a bomb, SB19 was given another chance. They decided to continue instead of disbanding, and released their 3rd single called "Alab" on Christmas of 2019. The song was a hit (I swear, the "19" is very auspicious for this group).
On 2020, the pandemic caused majority of SB19's plans to be discontinued and this gave the bashers a chance to spread their nefarious intentions. Gladly, the whole fandom survived their manipulations and we tided through 2020 well enough when SB19's first full album was released. The bashers were still there lurking however. I mean, there are ALWAYS bashers who waste their time and emotions, amirite?
SB19's visuals were severely attacked. These were the same people who bashed them saying they were copycats and not Filipino enough so they really weren't PPop, but now they're also saying they didn't look KPop-idol-ish enough to be idols. I don't know man. You figure that out. I feel like losing braincells just to comprehend what they want. The group and the company accepts valid criticisms and pondered on things to improve themselves, but there are just stupid comments from these trolls you'd never understand even if you had a supercomputer analyze it.
You just cannot please these people. So what do you do in that situation? Well, the best course of action is to just leave them alone (because you don't owe them anything anyway) and JUST DO YOUR OWN THING.
SB19 opened doors for PPop groups (like MNL48 and PHP) to be acknowledged and taken seriously. Following their footsteps, several PPop groups are now also being recognized for talent. New PPop groups are even entering the stage–among the newly-debuted ones are 1st.One, BGYO and the younger boys of Alamat.
So no matter what others say, even if some of their own fellow Filipinos bring them down saying they are not really PPop, SB19 doesn't care anymore. They are not seeking validation. They don't even need it, they have allies now. It's enough that they know they are PPop and they know they are representing the Philippines in the pop idol industry. They are proud of what they are doing. Now that they have established themselves, they'll be holding their ground and owning it. This is SB19's pride–their FLAG.
So if you ask why the WHAT? flag is a big red question mark, it's because it is not a question but a statement. It's a statement that SB19 will be raising their flag as high as they can–and whoever is listening to it should raise theirs as well. Flags are made to represent and they should be raised high with pride.
Now watch the MV again and pay attention to the lyrics with SB19's story in mind. After that, answer the question: WHAT is your FLAG?

Thank you for reacting?
Watawat means Flag
The message of the song is " Self Love and Empowerment " Justin the youngest member is the Creative director, Pablo the leader written the lyrics and one of the music producer, Stell is the choreoghaper together w/ Tank B.
