Ending position of Side Effects choreo. Members are on their knees with Bang Chan in the middle.

Starting position of Levanter choreo. Members are on their knees (except for Hyunjin, who's lying on his back), with Chan in the middle

I've only just twigged that the starting position of the Levanter choreo is a callback to the ending position of the Side Effects choreo

Hyunjin perched on Lee Know's back. They're in a field outdoors during filming of the "Side Effects" MV. Hyunjin says, "Lee Know drives us home." Lee Know says, "Right."

✂️ #Hyunjin helps himself to a #LeeKnow piggyback

Lee Know confirms that he's a driver.

Stray Kids members performing Side Effects at a music festival. Bang Chan (second from left) is in a black outfit with a black bandana attached to his right hip.

#BangChan #FlaggingBlackRight (heavy SM bottom) in this live performance.

(It doesn't look like anyone's really enjoying themselves here. I guess they were going through it.)

Ending pose of "Side Effects" during a skz dance practice. Bang Chan kneels in the centre with the other members kneeling behind him. All of them have their hands by their sides, except for Changbin who has his hands on Seungmin's shoulders.

Seungmin throws finger-hearts towards the camera as he falls sideways, having just been shoved by Changbin. Bang Chan in the middle is still looking at the camera and is now smiling gleefully (presumably he can see what's happening behind them, because they're in a dance practice room so there will be a wall of mirrors in front of them).

Seungmin's lying on his back on the floor, Changbin is climbing on top of him, most of the other skz members are in states of collapse, and Bang Chan in the centre is still in his kneeling pose but is smiling widely and clapping rapidly.

Changbin fully going for it in front of everyone's salad, and Bang Chan has never enjoyed a salad as much as this one.

In this cutesy "Side Effects" dance practice video, #Changbin and maybe #Felix are #FlaggingBlackLeft (heavy SM top) and #LeeKnow is maybe #FlaggingBlackRight (heavy SM bottom) if you count bandanas on wrists.

Oh ho ho ho this is also the source of #Changbin […]

Stray Kids dancing in front of the elevator during the "Side Effects" MV. There are still two moons behind them, but now the moon on the right has a pink or violet hue.

wait I was too hasty now the moons are changing colour. I don't know if the moon on the right is properly a red moon yet, but it's heading that way.

#skzLore #skzRedMoon #skzBlueMoon #skzSideEffects

Stray Kids walking across a tarmac with their luggage, looking cheerful and carefree. There are two moons in the sky above them, and an elevator with scaffolding plopped down incongruously behind them. A sign propped against a barricade says DETOUR.

... and that's the elevator behind them that becomes central in "Levanter"

Stray Kids at the start of the "Side Effects" MV, walking across a tarmac with their luggage. In the blue sky behind them are two moons: one half-moon and one full moon.

oooh there are two moons in the opening of the "Side Effects" MV but they're not red moon and blue moon yet. Instead it's half-moon and full moon.

This is the last title track MV before Woojin left. The next one is "Levanter" and I *think* that's the first […]

Stray Kids performing "Side Effects" on the Studio Choom set. Seungmin is at the front looking up and reaching up with one arm. The other skz members and the backing dancers are behind him and it seems like they're trying to hold him back or pull him down.

Stray Kids performing "Side Effects" on the Studio Choom set. At the front, Seungmin has a hand raised as though he's about to choke himself. I.N is behind him, holding his waist. Hyunjin and Han are both holding Seungmin back by his shoulders.

Stray Kids performing "Side Effects" on the Studio Choom set. Seungmin is glaring at the camera like it pissed in his cornflakes and he's ready to take revenge.

Stray Kids performing "Side Effects" on the Studio Choom set. Close up of Bang Chan holding the back of his neck, with his head tilted to one side and an attitude of impending murder.

I. um. forgot that the "Side Effects" choreo starts off with Kim Fucking #Seungmin's Choking Kink, followed by #BangChan staring into the camera like he's ready to fuck your shit right up.

Bang Chan smiles with a touch of horny as he listens to Seungmin singing the opening lines of "Side Effects"

Bang Chan holds the side of his neck and attempts to seduce the camera while listening to, and singing along with, "Side Effects"

✂️ #BangChan recognises that there are people who don't like "Side Effects"

But he clearly loves it and so he should.

(Also I continue to be obsessed with the choreo for this song, it's so hot, and it seems Christopher feels some kind of way about it too.) […]

Seungmin singing with his eyes closed. Korean caption translated: you believed in me. Japanese captions translated: and threw me away / don't suddenly start singing seriously

The maker of this video understands me.

#Seungmin best bits during a live performance of #skzSideEffects on a radio show in 2019

During the Side Effects relay dance, Lee Know holds out his hand, and Changbin steps forward from behind him to place his hand in Lee Know's

A request from #LeeKnow to #Changbin

✂️ Binnie, hand!

If you were stretching the definition of flagging, you could say that Changbin is flagging black on the right and Lee Know […]

stray kids lined up behind microphones, with an enjoyable range of body language and facial expressions. Of note: Chan looks mean (in a sexy way) Han is looking at Felix (?) in surprise, Seungmin has his eyes closed and his mouth open like he's imaging something very enjoyable, and I.N is full of delighted glee

✂️ Oh hello #Seungmin's O-face happens immediately after #BangChan's line, and the breathy gasp is #Felix's.

I enjoy the RPF thoughts that this inspires

(Also I really like #skzSideEffects, it is right up there as one of my fave skz songs. Some days it's […]

Stray Kids lined up behind microphones performing a song.

I enjoy the whole video, especially:

#Hyunjin and #Changbin are chained together by one of their accessories (I'm assuming that they did that themselves and it wasn't done to them by a stylist)

If we are flexible with the definition of flagging, and allow […]

Seungmin of Stray Kids in a 2019 performance, with his eyes closed and his head slightly back like he's having an orgasmic experience

✂️ Obsessed with this #skzSideEffects facecam where #Seungmin is deeply serious and breathy for a moment, then breaks & goes cutiepie again
