The song "HULA HOOP" by LOONA is an energetic and upbeat track about falling deeply in love with someone and wanting to dance around them like a hula hoop. The lyrics describe a feeling of being swept off your feet, with the singer stating "I've never felt this before, it's 'cause of you, you beautiful." The verses contain imagery related to outer space and galaxies, with lines like "飛び回る箒星 瞳はアンドロメダ" (flying broom stars, eyes are Andromeda) adding to the dreamy and romantic feel of the song. The chorus repeats "Hula-la-la, hula-la-la, hula-la, hula hoop" which serves as both a catchy refrain and a metaphor for being caught in a whirlwind of emotions.
Overall, the song is about finding joy and freedom in being with someone, spinning around them and feeling like you can conquer anything as long as you're together. It captures the excitement and electricity of new love while also hinting at the deeper, unbreakable connection that can form between two people.

Hula Hoop really takes us to the nostalgic train! These are all the references and easter eggs I can find (and my thoughts as well!):
0:03 The LOONA Intro is in red to represent the Japanese Flag! 🇯🇵
0:06 A Rainbow Hula Hoop! It kind of reminds me of the LOONA Intro from the PTT Era wherein every color is outside of the black circle.
0:07-0:20 LOONA grouped into their respective units! Yeojin being grouped with 1/3 warms my heart 😭, other members are also wearing their respective colors! 💓💛💙
0:24 Heejin wearing her outfit from ViViD while floating with cleaning products (which was her role at the M/V)
0:26 The actual moon orbiting Heejin!
0:28 Gowon wearing a Butterfly-Patterned Outfit! This could reference to a lot of Music Videos and films such as One&Only and So What.
0:30 Kim Lip wearing her uniform while being surrounded by the neon ring light, referencing Eclipse! There's also red, blue, and purple moons orbiting her symbolizing OEC coming together.
0:40 Haseul with the dead branches, airplanes, and birds referencing Let Me In; Gowon also appears which could reference her film about going back to Iceland? (Haseul's Representative Country)
0:45 Hyunjin with her representative color and animal, Yellow and the Cat! Choerry later appears, which could reference them being mirrors (theoretically)
0:49 Upside down Choerry which is a reference to her having a bat as her representative animal! She is also holding a mirror; all of these are references to Love Cherry Motion.
0:53 Heejin running with a clear track/line, which is a callback to music videos like Love&Live and Hi High!
0:55 Chuu's top reminds me of the Butterfly outfits! She's also sitting on the giant green apple that appeared on Heart Attack!
1:31 Yeojin wearing her Kiss Later outfit, sitting on a cake and being surrounded by Macarons, which iirc appeared on the music video.
1:34 After the transition using fire (So What), Olivia Hye is wearing her yyxy outfit, a callback to Love4eva! There's also an appearance of Game Machine Claws, which references Egoist, as well as New by Yves.
1:39 Gowon also wearing her uniform, with pineapples (representative fruit)! They are cut in a way like in One& Only! It was prepared on a plate like a slice where Gowon is standing on while the little chunks could represent the small bite she only sliced and ate.
1:44 Hyunjin also running on a track, and the relay of the item with Haseul is a reference to Love&Live.
1:52 Jinsoul with the cans and the neon signs (which could be related to Why Not/Yeojin). They have ch(o)erry labels in them. (Personal Thought: this reminds me of "The Sun in the Afternoon" Cans, and the white square reminds me of the bed, both apperaing in Egoist)
1:56 Yves hitting a stuffed toy with the golf club (New and Heart Attack), but this time it was a bunny (Heejin's animal). Then after she hits it, we see lots of Heejin running around?
2:03 Choerry in her portal (Love Cherry Motion)
2:14 Heejin pops off the object(?), releasing a confetti-like effect. This reminds me of The Carol.
2:31 Reminds me of XIIX and Why Not. It could be a similar buttefly from One&Only. Then it wss Chuu capturing it? She then lets go of it and and a explosion of graphics and butterfly appears, similar to the XIIX film as well.
2:46 LOONA running together as one, like the teaser! What's a LOONA Music Video without running?
2:52 The glitches are similar to what appeared in Hi High; and then the slingshot from Let Me In!
2:54 Everyday I Love You Rollerskates worn by Vivi!
2:56 Chuu's camera from Heart Attack!
3:03 The airplane, but finally in a good shape! (Let Me In, XIIX, Why Not)
3:25 LOONA symbolically surrounding the Tokyo Tower!
Other Thoughts:
BBC released official shapes for LOONA members, so it could've been a reference.
Smokes as transitions? It has appeared a lot on music videos (Ecplise, Why Not, Paint the Town, etc.)
@sowhatbridge5055
ppl who call this mv “cheap” have no idea how expensive it is to edit it this way 😭😭😭
@sowhatbridge5055
@@vwnb you dont have to own a pretty and multiple sets to have an expensive mv, this takes more than one editor and visual artists and those are hella expensive per hour
@sowhatbridge5055
plus, it was expected that the production budget was gonna be inferior in comparison to the other loona mvs cus bbc is in a tight spot and they don’t want to waste money on a japonese debut.
@Denka_
The way it looks is to capture the Japanese audience, this is the type of music videos that do well in JP.
@skylershis69
@@vwnb honestly regardless of how much the set and editing cost, look how talented and hard working they are! these girls have been through so much and they still continue to do an amazing job and if thats not worth watching idk what is

As someone said on twitter this is definitely a time capsule for all of their previous lore! It's the perfect introduction of loona to new fans while giving older fans some fun little throwbacks.
@leamortonvaldez596
Woah, you nailed it!
@seventeencarattrash
And this is why loona are such queens
@sansaparaganum
maybe bcs this is loona's first release for Japanese audiences. This release is a fresh start for them to notice loonaverse's lore😁👌 btw don't skip the ads on loonatheworld's vid... it'll help bbc gain revenue from ads... thanks😊
