For me this group is not for chill listening but a whole show for watching. They has a whole lore like killing monster, go to alternate universe and stuffs most people don’t understand lol.
if you want to know who is who in aespa and their position in the group: 3:39 KARINA (korean) - leader, oldest (2000), main dancer, lead rapper, vocalist 7:20 GISELLE (korean-japanese) - 2000 also, main rapper, vocalist 9:05 WINTER (korean) - 2001, lead dancer, lead vocalist 8:58 NINGNING (chinese) - youngest (2002), main vocalist, dancer aespa's lore concept is insane and really interesting so i really want to recommend it to you >< they have this SMCU ep 1-3 videos that explains their lore. if you have time and want to react to it, thank you! and they also release english songs (life's too short & better things) and have english ost for movies/tv show like hold on tight - ost for tetris movie die trying - ost for rebel moon part 2: the scargiver get goin' - ost for fraggle rock: back to the rock s2
You HAVE to react to Red Velvet. I heard that you mentioned you want to listen to something that is unique to K-Pop. Red Velvet's release radiates major "Kpop" energy.
He mentioned about high notes in this video too. Red Velvet has by far the best vocal harmony in the industry right now, insanely good bridge, full chorus etc.
Once again requesting Super by Seventeen because you mentioned Dragon Ball before (the korean title is "sonogong", which is the Korean name for Sun Wukong/Son Goku), so you'd almost definitely have the cultural knowledge there to get the lyrics They're just an incredible group, amazing performers
yes omg, this guy's prolly annoyed by how I've been lowkey spamming his community post and video comment sections with the react to seventeen rant lol, but they deserve it, they're great- if not one of the best self produced groups of kpop, he needs to react to them
Since you said that you liked or enjoyed to listen to high notes in K-pop, I would recommend the group KISS OF LIFE. They have four members; Natty, Julie, Haneul and Belle. Natty is the main dancer, Julie is the main rapper, Haneul is the lead vocalist and Belle is the main vocalist (both belle and Haneul can do come crazy high notes). They are a rookie group who debuted in July of 2023 and have some amazing songs in my opinion. As a fan of KISS OF LIFE, I would recommend listening to NOBODYS KNOWS, NATTY solo SUGERCOAT, shhh, NOTHING (a song which is all English, and had a crazy high note. But the full song isn’t on there RU-vid channel) and SIXTH SENSE (a song that they covered from a series called song stealer). THANKS 😎
He def should. I see a lot of people recommending him KIOF but no one tells him that the mv have a story line with the song. Gotta help him watch it in order if he does react to KIOF
I think they’re one of the groups that you’ll appreciate more if you know korean even though they do have quite a bit of english. I love N.Flying and I hope they get more recognition.
In case you check out more aespa in the future, here's some pretty needed context: Their production is high as they're from one of Korea's BIG 3, SM Entertaintment. Known as a pretty shit company but pumps out insanely talented vocalists. So yeah, aespa has big money for their production. aespa's debut is carried HEAVILY by a storyline (I call it the Black Mamba Saga) complimeted with 3 episodes of mini-drama/story. The songs covered during this era are: 1. Black Mamba, 1.5 SMCU Episode 1 2. Next Level 2.5 SMCU Episode 2 3. Savage 4. Girls 4.5 SMCU Episode 3 5. Welcome To My World (Epilogue) After Girls era, SM's main creative director and founder was removed from the company, and there's been a complete shift in creative direction. So songs like Armageddon, Supernova, and Drama are more of their 'new sound'
easpa has an all english song called Better Things if u want a song u can understand. its a bit more pop than their usual releases tho so not entirely sure if you will like it specifically, I however love it soo much its one of my fave songs by them. the mv is fun too!
I think that the text at the beginning and the concept of the MV is a reference to the Mandela catalog it's a horror ARG on RU-vid it got pretty famous (it's abt ppl getting killed by their clones/doppelgangers but they made it a LOT less creepy in the MV)
i love mandela catalogue but i'm just gonna guess that a kpop group's mv concept isn't a reference to a youtube horror arg series. the beginning text is so general i'm not sure how it could be a reference unless it had the same wording
@@l4stday0ne4rth ik that’s what I’m saying, I’m just saying that there’s a lot of them maybe it’s not exactly Mandela catalogue, but I agree on it being inspired by analog horror
Loved this reaction! I find your perspective really refreshing and you keep noticing little details I would’ve otherwise missed. Btw I don’t think you’re gonna enjoy male groups as much… but since you’re really into visuals I would recommend “Jungle” by CIX. I would love to hear your thoughts on it. Visuals and refrences are insane and the song is great too!
I can’t wait for you to react to more groups😭 one of my fave reactors rn because you yap and actually pay attention! Would love a G-IDLE or Red Velvet reaction in the future!
I really enjoy your yapping, your takes are super interesting! I think you’d do really well as a commentary channel tbh if you wanna do more than Kpop reactions 😭
some groups + songs i recommend are; babymonster - sheesh + like that kiss of life - nobody knows le sserafim - smart young posse - xxl itzy - born to be enhypen - bite me stray kids - megaverse red velvet - chill kill enhypen - fever
For me i really like your yapping because you are really breaking down the MV and music and analysing it. Which makes it an interesting reaction!!❤❤ So please keep yappin. 😊
You talked about Fast & Furious twice in this video. Well, they did sing a song for F&F. It’s called ‘Next Level’ and I think you’d like it~ But it’s a little bit weird, so be careful 🤭
It’s an SM entertainment thing (sm is the label they are in which produces many great kpop groups) they make different music from everyone they have interesting production in my opinion the best in kpop production wise and vocal wise groups like nct, exo, red velvet, shinee and exo have a great discography
i think if you want to listen to more aespa, you should keep going backwards in their discography and react to "spicy"! another great song by them is "next level" but the lyrics will definitely confuse you because its very lore-related, much like lots of their early work
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bQz_lUeyR58.htmlsi=tXntP5FcXe6hPGlh skip to 11:10 will show u how much english aespa usedin drama. Xg sings in all English because they are a Japanese group( you can’t promote in Korea with all Japanese lyrics) , new jeans has an abnormal amount of English in their songs because their company wants them to be popular in the west ( which is fine but Korean’s have gave them some hate for that)
I've been watching your reactions and I really like that you associate the shots or the lyrics with other things, keep yapping because it's very interesting, and please keep reacting! you are another type of content
U should really check out BadVillian - Hurricane and 82+. They are very rap and dance focused, and its good if a group can dance and rap, especially since many groups dont offer, kinda refreshing. Also one of them, Emma, is from Street Fighter i think ive heard, which means shes a proffesional dancer.
Great reaction! I would Love If you could also Check out Young Posse! They are the Korean "baby version WuTang Clan" as they call themselves in their recent Song XXL 😂 they are great! I recommend starting with Macaroni Cheese, then Young Posse Up, XXL and finishing with ROTY and Scars.
stray kids(short form is skz) make their own songs and have rlly good raps and vocals and are just rlly big ace(used for idols good at dancing,singing and rapping) group. their latest comeback was back in november but theyre having another comeback rlly soon! i also wanna say that you should research nct cause its an interesting concept because of their subunits
Bro I really love how u go into details when explaining parts you enjoy/don’t enjoy. Keep up the good work! 😎👍✨can you react to kiss of life pls? (I’m sorry for asking btw 😭)
From what you've listened to, IVE is a totally different flavor it's much more elegant and sort of cutsy than aespa and newjeans. I reccomend watching Accendio to get you into the group and then watch like Eleven or Love Dive
aespa got some english singles and those are easy listening ones "Better Things" & "Life too Short" These songs are like basic basic songs that maybe for general public that likes normal music not some aespacore music that punches you or whatever it is Hope you check it out if you plan to keep checking out aespa
Aespa also has songs that are full in English! They’re good too but I would say that aespa is the kinda group that you get more into once you’re more into kpop, while Newjeans is more for people who are first getting into it because they use a lot of English in their songs
If you want to try a group that is deff a lot different than the others you should listen to NMIXX they change their beat at any point in a lot of their songs and they never stick to one concept!!
Can't wait for you to react to dreamcatcher! They're a very different girl group in kpop too. Their main sound is rock. You can start your journey of Dreamcatcher from 'Scream'
Mentioning kill Bill reminded me of a MV that totally references it It's BIBI animal farm you can react to it if you want (the MV outro is the credits where other song from the same album playing)
Aespa has that modern bad girl vibe with a hell of a production Most similar vibe from newjeans to them is gods, thats a really good song with a great production (made by riot games for the last world’s competition back in 2023) pls listen to it!
Somebody suggested Drunk-dazed which in my opinion is a pretty good song. If you do take up the suggestion, then I recommend you watch the official MV (regular version) and the 4k version. A song I recommend is macaroni cheese by young posse. It’s like a funny song to me at least, but no matter the silliness it is still a song I suggest 😅
The girl that you point out at 16:06 that you like is actually the most famous idol today brands always sign with her and most big event would always invite her she's the center of attention now which is alarming one wrong mistake and people will hate her..
aespa actually is the gateway of 4th gen when next level blow up it really butted head with BTS Butter in charts, that song is the representation of 4th gen as much as they dislike it and the 1st group of 4th gen to break records gaining the attention of the general public to pay attention in 4th gen then that's were NEW JEANS came along and IVE these three groups are the main group as today(4th gen representative )music wise, records of achievement and talent.
If you appreciate vocals, you should definitely check out more of aespa & the other SM groups (aespa's entertainment and SM is known for the vocalsssss. Literally every group can SANGGGG)
gotta plug the girl group "kiss of life," fire vocals, production, visuals, charisma, and a discography heavily inspired by hip-hop and y2k pop! i think you'll like "shhh," "nobody knows," "midas touch," and natty's solo "sugarcoat"
i think you would really enjoy nct 127 as they're both hip-hop and r&b, while adding an experimental twist! please react to their songs "kick it", "simon says," and "fact check" -- one of their recurring producers is dem jointz, you can hear his "incoming!" producer tag on kick it
9:23 i swore that since you liked rap you wanted to listen to more rap than vocals/high notes but since that's not the case, i recommend EXO "Tempo", "LOVE ME RIGHT" and "Lucky One", they are called the kings of vocals in the kpop! i hope you go deeper in this group :3 have a nice day!
Check out Young Posse, theyre a kpop/rap group debuted last yr.. they incorporate both old school and new school types of hip hop. They made "fun" music videos.. may I suggest their MVs for Macaroni Cheese, XXL, Young Posse Up, OTB
