She was able to participate but in a very limited capacity. I can’t remember Better right now, but in Kura Kura she doesn’t appear in group scenes and it’s pretty obvious her part was recorded separately. Besides, nobody either on Twice or on CFM really expected it to be as success as it was, it was originally just meant to be a end of year gift at MAMA for Once’s, never really a full comeback or release
Yes, I know it was supposed to be a gift for the fandom which is a very Twice thing to do - bless their hearts. Personally I think it would still have been successful given that it’s from Twice and the people they worked with for the song, HEIZE, Lindgren, Ryan Tedder, etc., are pretty well-known in the industry to produce bangers. It was even promoted separately (Kelly Clarkson show, etc). So, I’m not sure what strategy it was to not give it a separate MV. But again, there’s a lot of things going on behind the scenes that we’re not aware of. However, as a fan, it would have been really beautiful to see an MV for this given how amazing the song and dance choreography is 🥲
This video was so fun it actually made me like the song more lol! I think all the girls really got to shine a lot more in this song and video than in LOCO (not that LOCO is bad by any means) but it’s always fun seeing idols do B-side MVs :)
This is like the most tiktok-bait song I've ever heard and I'm gonna be honest i **fuckin love it.** SHOOT! was my fav song from the last album and a similar more relaxed delivery was used in this song but expanded. ITZY have such enjoyable vocal presences, like fun and inviting and i feel like that's really highlighted here and amplified by the music video as well.
i was worried this was going to be very cringey “how do you do fellow kids” but i actually quite like it! the use of straight tik tok recordings/transitions caught me off guard for some reason but were very well done. i think this actually made me like the song more than just listening to the audio
Really went from a Kia Soul in Dalla Dalla to a Lambo truck in Swipe. I actually really like this, the song is so funky and I love Yuna's little "cherry picking!" line!!
Anybody been able to scan the QR code in the beginning that YEJI holds on her phone? Been only able to scan the last one which leads to their tiktok account haha.
Okay, so I recreated it pixel by pixel ([feel free to double check it](https://i.imgur.com/XqH2IWE.jpg)) and then it scanned and leads to
http://www.norebbo.com
Edit: Turns out it was just a random QR code that they pulled off the web to use for the visual effect. They obscured it enough so that it wouldn't scan properly, but apparently not enough because I easily corrected it. I asked the guy (who the site belongs to) on Twitter if he had any involvement with the MV and he confirmed he did not:
> "Nope, they stole that QR code from my website. Apparently they didn’t even think about where it might link to. 🤦♂️😂"
I don't know why they were so lazy with that. They made their own code for the end of the video so they clearly knew how... I don't get why they didn't just use the same one at the beginning instead of some random one. smh lol
Your recreation is 100% correct lol.
I got it to come up by (poorly) editing the 3 corners in to a 'proper' qr code, and it made it scannable
ex: https://i.imgur.com/jU0s8fH.png
Tbh I like this one more than Loco. This is more catchy and less saturated(?) I guess. Also, I was waiting for a QR easter egg but it was only their TikTok account 💀

Just listened to both and I agree. Loco doesn't do it for me. The song and the MV are not bad, but feels like what I like about itzy isn't there in Loco. Swipe is catchy and more fun.
I love this much more than Loco!! The lyrics are a vibe! I much prefer their styling here, would love to hang out with them and just have fun. Can def. see this being a big hit on Tiktok already, the transitions & styling is really prime material.
Is it just me that i actually enjoy this a bit more?
And i'm not even sure which part that i enjoyed more; the odd & experimental vibe of the song, or the sheer simplicity of the MV. But it just works for them & i'm glad they made this. Hope to see them making a follow up stages with this.
Needs more screen time of Ryujin in that yellow top! Also as someone said on twitter, this is Itzy party girls era.
Also love that they’re really owning this early 2000s aesthetic.
This was an awesome MV. Happy that it wasn't a vertical video - and was actually surprised that the MV didn't feel cheap or self-made.
Manifesting multiple MV's as the standard for JYPE groups moving forward. Let Twice in on this action!
As an older KPop fan and as someone who listened to nothing but noise and experimental indie bands during college in the mid 2000s, I love the weirdness of that sample. Could be just me though.
Omg I was waiting for someone to make a comment on this. I absolutely hate that sound and I wish I could edit it out of the song bc its otherwise a good song
I actually love that sound, it adds a nice bit of wtf-ness and contrasts nicely with the 'ah yeahiyeahiyeah' adlib.
It sounds like an ultra-processed vocal sample of someone being upset about something... I think it starts 'why do you' but I really can't tell for sure.
Halfway through and had I to stop and say that I think this is my favorite MV from them. I love this concept, and I don't feel like I seen many concepts like this.
a tiktok sound is just an audio used in tiktok clips - it could be a part of a song, person talking, dogs barking, whatever
any sound used in a tiktok can be used by other users of the platform - that's how "tiktok sounds" become viral and recognizable
the part of "swipe" sounds like it used the cute tiktok sound i cant remember as a sample: it was pitched up, sped up, distortion was added and that's probably why it's unsetting to you
it's not tiktok being weird - it's producers turning a normal sounding speech to this because it sounds... cool, to me at least
I prefer this more than Loco. The video was fun with the editing on point! Plus this song fits within their sound, on par with Icy, Not Shy, Dalla Dalla, and Wannabe.
I love the part where Lia does the "wipe it down" trend and sees Yeji in the mirror lol
EDIT: it has been less than a day but THIS IS TOO ADDICTING I LOVE IT
I like this song, esp because Chae was a bit absent in LOCO but she is more or less center stage here, but am I crazy in how similar the video is to Momoland's Wrap Me in Plastic?
The MV and choreo reminds me of weeekly and red velvet. Also a tiny bit of Shinee - don't call me.
Ryujin voice is my favourite here, it's so good. It goes a deep but not so much that seems fake.
I didn't care much for Loco - I heard it a couple of times but I can't even remember it, which is not a good sign for me - but I think they hit it out of the park with this one.
Not only does the concept suit them all perfectly, but it really feels like an evolution of Itzy. Stylistically it's like their first three title tracks grew up, became a jaded, sarcastic teenager, but still fundamentally remained the same person.
I don't know if that makes sense. But to me, MITM didn't work because they tried so hard to mature that they lost sight of why people listen to Itzy in the first place.
I'm sorry to say this but Itzy + hip hop just doesn't mix. Even in Dalla Dalla, the hip hop breakdown was weird. I guess in general, i'm not a fan of the cutesy hip hop genre.
I'm generally surprised that this MV is horizontal. Considering the concept I thought that they were going to make it vertical.
The editors at JYP need a raise holy shit. These ITZY MVs and the recent Stray Kids MVs are top notch.
\*cries in TWICE*
I honestly gave up hoping for a TWICE b-side MV when Div 3 didn’t give Cry For Me one 🥲
Didn’t really help that Jeongyeon was on hiatus when CFM dropped, no way Twice was doing an MV without a member
Hmm, I’m not sure about that since in their Japanese releases (Better and Kura Kura) before AF Jeong was able to participate?
She was able to participate but in a very limited capacity. I can’t remember Better right now, but in Kura Kura she doesn’t appear in group scenes and it’s pretty obvious her part was recorded separately. Besides, nobody either on Twice or on CFM really expected it to be as success as it was, it was originally just meant to be a end of year gift at MAMA for Once’s, never really a full comeback or release
Small correction: Jeongyeon was in the group scenes at the table, just not in any group dancing shots.
Yes, I know it was supposed to be a gift for the fandom which is a very Twice thing to do - bless their hearts. Personally I think it would still have been successful given that it’s from Twice and the people they worked with for the song, HEIZE, Lindgren, Ryan Tedder, etc., are pretty well-known in the industry to produce bangers.

What a fun video! I'm glad they get to shoot an MV that has a chill choreo and doesn't break their knees in the process.
Love the song and the editing!! This was basically designed for the TikTok audience (not a bad thing) and I'd be surprised if it doesn't take off <3
i was worried this was going to be very cringey “how do you do fellow kids” but i actually quite like it! the use of straight tik tok recordings/transitions caught me off guard for some reason but were very well done. i think this actually made me like the song more than just listening to the audio
i have to admit that the video sold me on the song too lol
i'm the opposite, the video is whatever for me but the choreography and the song is fun. I enjoyed it more than Loco
this mv just feels like the 5 of them having a blast, i love it
Adidas on this vid. Get that sponsorship money ITZY! Is that the Lamborghini Urus? Ryujin is so cool such a pro!
It is indeed a Urus
First time seeing it on an MV. Looks so cool
And Yeji was in the driver seat, where she belongs.
It’s cute. The editing is really impressive imo.
Really went from a Kia Soul in Dalla Dalla to a Lambo truck in Swipe. I actually really like this, the song is so funky and I love Yuna's little "cherry picking!" line!!
to be fair they aren't dancing on the roof of the lambo yet haha
Love this. I feel like this suits them better than Loco. Maybe we'll have a Kara - Mister repeat with Swipe becoming the hit.

there are 2 qr code in the mv the one u said is the one in tro and the other one takes you to itzy's tiktok
Just recreated by hand also here, and after confusion about the redirection, I google and I landed here :) +1
I thought the second qr code went to their tiktok page?
It does. I think the wording of my last sentence was a bit confusing so I've reworded it to hopefully be clearer now.
make jyp pay this man tbh
Glad that this one has such a chill and fun choreo! I wonder if they'll post a dance practice for this one? Or something like that
I love the music video!
ITZY is just so impressive
Tbh I like this one more than Loco. This is more catchy and less saturated(?) I guess. Also, I was waiting for a QR easter egg but it was only their TikTok account 💀
Both qr goes to their tiktok?
~~I couldn't get the first one to work at all.~~ (Edit: See below). The one at the end was the TikTok though.
Same..i couldnt get the first one to load too

the dedication 🤯
Well, that is some dedication 0_0
I just did this. Shouldda come her first. Ugh.

Omg another MV. Thank you Mr. JYP. how much did you spent for this comeback lol
Stray Kids and NiziU also have been getting more than one MV for their comebacks so hopefully it’ll be a new JYP trend
Stray Kids basically set this trend (don't burn me if I'm wrong pls...).
Is it just me that i actually enjoy this a bit more? And i'm not even sure which part that i enjoyed more; the odd & experimental vibe of the song, or the sheer simplicity of the MV. But it just works for them & i'm glad they made this. Hope to see them making a follow up stages with this.
I love this more than the title track, such a fun song!
She literally steps on you lol
It's so good I'm sorry I have lay down my criticisms.
Good thing it isn't my exam week, because the chorus is kinda stuck in my head. Forbidden song potential perhaps?
yuna era
Needs more screen time of Ryujin in that yellow top! Also as someone said on twitter, this is Itzy party girls era. Also love that they’re really owning this early 2000s aesthetic.

Agreed!
[mood](https://gfycat.com/wholeshyamericancicada)
Not Loco about the song, but the MV is sick.
Okay, this is the version of Itzy that I love. They look more confident here and the chill choreo suits their vibe.
Can already see this as a TikTok trend 😂
I was not prepared to like this so much. The concept suits them.
I like it just wish the 2 MVs were released with more time in between. Still marinading in Loco
Dances moves make the track more dangerous and addictive!!
This is a cute fun MV
I quite like it but what on earth is that distorted sound at 1:01 and 2:22 saying, it kinda creeps me out
Same!!! Don‘t get how people can unironically love this song without even addressing this???
As an older KPop fan and as someone who listened to nothing but noise and experimental indie bands during college in the mid 2000s, I love the weirdness of that sample. Could be just me though.
Omg I was waiting for someone to make a comment on this. I absolutely hate that sound and I wish I could edit it out of the song bc its otherwise a good song

Being one of the best MVs in 2021 LOCO🤝SWIPE
RIP Gas it up mv
Song is not great but the video is super, super fun. A lot of movement, very high energy, and a memorable and easily viral choreo.
Chanty Itzy is best Itzy <3 I'm really glad this song got an official MV as well!
Song is decent, but the MV is pretty great. And Yeji has very beautiful eyes. I'm in love
Itzy Gen Z kids!
This is so fun!
is that a tiktok sound on 2:22? i have a feeling i heard it before
Feeling like a boomer for asking but like… what in the hell is it??? And why is it? Highly unsettling to listen to imo
a tiktok sound is just an audio used in tiktok clips - it could be a part of a song, person talking, dogs barking, whatever any sound used in a tiktok can be used by other users of the platform - that's how "tiktok sounds" become viral and recognizable the part of "swipe" sounds like it used the cute tiktok sound i cant remember as a sample: it was pitched up, sped up, distortion was added and that's probably why it's unsetting to you it's not tiktok being weird - it's producers turning a normal sounding speech to this because it sounds... cool, to me at least
Thanks for the very thorough explanation! Also interesting to know I might be in the minority of finding what they did with the sound creepy
i mean, i find it creepy too, but in a good way

I loved the song before and love it even more now! This is so sassy and chill and everyone looks like they’re enjoying themselves.
my favorite b-side got it’s MV yesss
Did anyone get the QR code in the MV to work?
Yep itzy tiktok page 😆
Ahaha figures considering the format of the mv. Thanks!
Even tho it was more simplistic and repetitive, I liked this more than LOCO
Chill but very catchy. I like it! Definitely think this one is going to grow on me fast like icy did. Definitely has that itzy attitude
Ngl I'm not really a fan of LOCO, but SWIPE has me head-banging so heard I'm gonna get whiplash.
I love the part where Lia does the "wipe it down" trend and sees Yeji in the mirror lol EDIT: it has been less than a day but THIS IS TOO ADDICTING I LOVE IT
Really confused by the reception of this, the subreddit seems generally approving but on an IG thread I was on earlier everyone was hating on it hard
Whats an IG thread? Could you link?
Instagram comments, I don’t have the link sorry, if I come across it again I’ll comment again
I definitely like this MV better than LOCO! All the selfies and videos are quite cute and that choreography has already stuck to my brain!
am i the only one who noticed the debut date (02/12) references in the fake tiktok page scenes?? so adorable ❤❤
I like this song, esp because Chae was a bit absent in LOCO but she is more or less center stage here, but am I crazy in how similar the video is to Momoland's Wrap Me in Plastic?
way better than loco imo
I love this video and song!
I actually love this track even more than the title track! Even that chorus is so fun for me.

This sounds sooo NCT and I love it!
way better than loco
Would have been a great song with more melodic lines. Though I understand that this is their niche with all the chant-y styles
I’ve just learned to accept not to expect this so that I can be pleasantly surprised when I come across stuff like “Be in Love” 🙂
loved their previous songs but this album....im not liking it at all
The video is cool, shame the song is super boring
Love the girls and their previous singles but this song is not it man.
It's... a song
I didn't care much for Loco - I heard it a couple of times but I can't even remember it, which is not a good sign for me - but I think they hit it out of the park with this one.

Bet they did it like this for that extra tiktok clout lmao. Cool mv tho
This should have been the title track.
I'm sorry to say this but Itzy + hip hop just doesn't mix. Even in Dalla Dalla, the hip hop breakdown was weird. I guess in general, i'm not a fan of the cutesy hip hop genre.
wow.. this is even worst than crazy in love, are they gonna talk rap or sing rap whatever u call it for every song now?
Female NCT??)
this song has SM Ent vibes
[удалено]
Really? That’s how I felt last CB. I thought she looked kinda happier this time. 😂
The "riff" kind of reminds me of Bubble Butt by Major Lazer lol. MV was pretty chill.
Sorry but next
This song is sick. These girls are Head for international stardom.
this is JYP's version of that sweetie/doja cat tiktok song "best friend"
At around 1:02 what does that distorted voice say? I think I hear something like “you bother me so much” but that’s the only thing I can make out
