What is Love? – Twice
Amber’s Reflection: While thinking of songs we could do a reaction video to, I thought it would be cute to watch Twice’s “What is Love?” When it first came out, I remembered falling in love with the girls’ concepts as the costumes and sets were drawn from famous scenes of classic romance films (e.g., Ghost,…
