for solar: oh, on the bald bit... solar was 100% going to shave her head. which is why the staff wanted to stop her. the ceo, though, said "if that's what you really want to do, go for it" because he's never really tried to stifle the creativity of these women in any way. later, some of the staff members showed her how baldcaps work and she decided to go with that ...also, that is indeed one thing about everyone in this group. they want to do something, they're going to do it, damn what anybody says. both of the agency's ceos are used to it (and actually encourage it, at least to a point) but many people are constantly surprised by that ha, and that "how'd she have time for all this?" is the eternal question... solar and moonbyul both like staying active so even when they're supposed to be resting they find things to do. for solar, a lot of that energy has been channeled into her youtube channel, where she constantly tries so many new things. and she's been posting videos at least once, often twice, a week every week for over a year now, no matter how busy she is working on or promoting new music as for their comebacks, it seriously varies. in 2018 we got 4 comebacks in just over a year ("starry night", "egotistic", "wind flower", "gogobebe") then about 11 months later we got "hip". and almost exactly a year after that was "aya". but in that intervening year we got 3 solo albums from 3 of the members (wheein's is coming out some time after they finish with this group comeback)
Tbh Solar is really the most crazy, that's not for nothing even Wheein initially thought she was too weird haha. And this guide doesn't show even 20% of each member cuz it's a guide so a sum up huhu
"They're so LOUD!" LOL. Welcome to the radish field! Answers to your questions and more info: * Birds & Solar. Solar is fearless on stage and loves to push all sorts of limits (gender, sexuality, idol image, her voice, body, skills & abilities) so you wouldn't think she'd be afraid of birds, bugs, sheep, lobsters and other harmless creatures but she is. She also loves horror movies but is terrified of ghosts and she lost her shit when she encountered the Grim Reaper during a visit to a fun house. She screamed louder than a pack of teenaged girls on a roller coaster, a zip line ride, and while sky diving. * Pole dancing: The live clip was from MMM's must-see, show-stopping performance at the 2018 MAMA Award Show. Solar first pole danced live while doing a cover of Despacito in her solo set during MMM's 2018 4 Seasons S/S concerts. She also did a double pole dance with her teacher that they choreographed to Solar's self-composed solo song Hello. You can find that vid on Solar's yt channel Solarsido. Solar is also fond of aerial wire work and she turned mid-air somersaults during her 4 Seasons S/S solo set and flew over the audience in her solo set during the 2019 4 Seasons F/W concerts. * MMM-TV: They've been uploading MMM-TV episodes since the beginning. You can find them on MMM's yt channel. * "Where does she find the time?!" Solar is the most extreme workaholic in a group of infamous workaholics even by kpop's outrageous work ethic standards. For example, MMM used to make up to 4 appearances a day and didn't take an extended vacation from their debut in 2014 until early this year, and that was at least partly because Wheein was sick and even then the other members used their "off time" to release solo albums and in Solar's case, to release her solo debut song Spit It Out. Solar seems determined not to be outworked by anyone. I think the other members gave up trying to keep up with her and that may be why they formed an unofficial subunit called The Loser's Club. 🤣 * Spit It Out: The song wasn't an enormous hit but it did earn her a win on a music show. Spit It Out also charted on Billboard's world singles chart, making Mamamoo the only kpop group to have all members chart on Billboard while the group was still active (2NE1 did it after they disbanded). * Final comment on Solar: Solar is such a crackhead it takes a while to grasp that she's a very strong leader, which is one of the two main things Purple Hawke left out of this excellent guide. The other is Solar's songwriting. Besides Hello she co-wrote the music & lyrics for Spit It Out and has co-written lyrics for a number of MMM songs, including some of their hits, and wrote the main lyrics for three love songs to moomoos (Moonbyul & Hwasa also contributed rap verses) - I Love You Too, Star Wind Flower Sun, and I'm Your Fan. This comment is already too long so I won't say anything about Moonbyul - hopefully other moomoos have already provided any info you might need about her. If not, just ask! 😂
Actually presently Moonbyul is a host for avengirls audio show... so she invited Seulgi (during Monster promotion) and Soojin (during (G) iddle promotion)as guests in her show ...And yes the fan whom she called was actually Solar
I love Mamamoo, Hwasa is my total bias. Moonbyul is probably #1 Gay Panic Idol in k-pop, especially when she's being greasy. It's so cringey that if a guy said it you'd want to push him off a bridge, but when Moon does it? Totally different story.
for moonbyul: all three of those songs were byul's solo works. "selfish" (with seulgi) was technically her first official solo song, in the 'red moon' album (alongside "eclipse") but she'd performed songs she wrote before that at concerts and such, or just uploaded on their channel. "eclipse", the second one, was her official solo debut, with a full album, stage performances, concert and everything. "absence" was just something she wrote and performed because she wanted to the concert for 'dark side of the moon' (her album) was done online because of the pandemic. funny enough, solar's solo concert way back in 2018 was the first solo concert for any member of a 3rd gen girl group (and she didn't actually have any solo songs at the time!). moonbyul's solo concert earlier this year was the second solo concert for any member of a 3rd gen girl group. i'm still surprised by that "absence" is written about a woman whose partner was caught cheating on her but she eventually forgave them and got back together. she can't ever be sure they're not continuing to cheat, though, so is constantly worried. there's a lot of pain and sadness in the song, as you'd imagine, but the funny thing is she wrote it about two characters in a drama she was watching at the time and ha, 'yong sunhae' is indeed solar. she made it as a prank to help byul with her nervousness during her first solo vlive, pretending to be her biggest fan. her plan was to get byul to say 'i love yong sunhae', basically 'i love yongsun'. solar expected one of the show's staff to call her and hand the phone over to byul, instead of byul doing it herself, so she answered in her own voice instead of the fake one. and got caught because of that also, moonbyul and seulgi are quite close. as far as whole groups go, mmm and rv are the closest with each other, though individual members might be closer with members of other groups. rv members have said that quite frequently. the two groups realized their vans were next to each other at a stop light leaving a schedule about a year after they both debuted (since they debuted a few months apart) and made their managers pull over so they could exchange numbers. and since then used to hang out together whenever they had any amount of offtime. byul and seulgi mentioned some of that in the show 'idol drama operation team' they were on together (which is where byul and yooa first met). the groups would hang out in the evening 'totally not drinking' until rv realized 11 pm was closing in and they had to get back to their dorm before curfew. sadly, as both groups got more popular they also got busier so had less and less time to hang out together, but they still chat and go to each other's concerts. byul was even a guest on an episode of irene and seulgi's 'level up' alongside joy and it seemed irene was hoping she'd bring at least one other member of mamamoo (probably solar). there's also a fun encore stage video where mamamoo had won against yuju (of gfriend, another group mmm is pretty close with) and red velvet went to congratulate them. instead, mamamoo roped rv and yuju into dancing around onstage and celebrating the victory with them, even giving them the flowers they won (and insisting yuju keep the bouquet they gave her)
In the clip of Solar thinking that the park sign was an audio guide the moment where Moonbyul told her it was one was omitted. Moonbyul trolls Solar a lot because it's super easy and Solar is very dignified and doesn't stay mad. If you haven't seen it here's a guide to Mamamoo jokes/memes: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mR2SRBmzjNw.html It provides context for not only Moo Moo jokes but also for the crack songs Sleep In The Car and 1CM Taller Than You.
This guide is amazing! I'm going to answer a few of the questions you had. So first with Solar, she is just very hardworking and passionate so she tries to make time for her youtube channel even despite their schedule. I know she's pretty well known for her strong vocals but in my opinion her voice is very versatile and her softer voice and low register are also amazing. Her solo song "Spit it out" is really good and catchy! but unfortunately, mamamoo's solo work is pretty underrated except for Hwasa's because she's one of Korea's it girl. Anyways Solar is amazing and she deserves the world! Now for Moonbyul (she's my bias) I liked that you clarified that she's a real rapper because yes, to be a rapper you also need to write at least most of your raps and that's what she always does, and not only for her parts but she's also a great lyricist in general, very involved in writing Mamamoo's songs. Her singing voice is my favorite because is just so soothing to hear, she has a unique tone and I feel proud to see how confident she feels now while singing compared to the early days. Of course being in a super vocal focused group like MMM she would feel kinda out of place, for example, when you watch their old Inmortal Songs perfomances you will see her standing there waiting for her rap parts while the other girls are belting. Luckily, since their 4 Seasons albums (2018) she started to sing more and now she's out there putting out full covers on youtube :) I would recommend her last one "Trying to say goodbye" because is a beautiful ballad. Oh also, she's our angsty emo girl when it comes to lyrics and emotions in songs lol. She's also the cry baby of the group even if she doesn't seem like it!
I find a lot of people see Mamamoo after finding Hwasa first and assume since she has such big charisma on-stage that she is the eldest and the leader lol. I think you'll find, as you watch the Part 2 and more of Mamamoo in general, that each of them are such big characters, it's almost baffling how none of them outshine the other. Honestly,they really are a group with how well each member compliments another rather than overshadowing anyone. Probably why Mamamoo works so well. It's crazy how RBW found and placed all 4 of them in the same group. Such good chemistry, and also, you'll find, so much crackhead energy too! lol
I love the part where Don Spike said to Hwasa in Queendom during the Vocal Unit practice time, "that's the problem here. You're too good. Why are you in a girl group?" 🤣🤣🤣
That was the actress/hostess of Queendom in the red dress Lee Da Hee. Literally one of my all-time favourite celebrities. Amazing actress and a walking meme herself.
This guide was done sooo well and shout out to Purple Hawke. I'm glad to see you enjoying knowing them and their quirks. You'll have more harder time picking a bias once you see part 2. They're all so loveable and talented that you can't help but fall in love with them.
Moonbyul also took part written and composed AYA, and written 5 of 6 songs in the album, and that makes Moonbyul 2nd most credited female artist... Moonbyul and seulgi are best friend so seulgi invited as first guest on moonbyul's radio show...
Hello, wanted to clear up somethings about Hwasa. Hwasa is easily 1 of the most polarizing figures in kpop. She’s 1 of Koreas it girls( very popular/loved), but she’s simultaneously hated on by kmedia/netizens(similar to Jennie from BP). Kmedia/netizens hate on Hwasa bc she doesn’t fit Kbeauty standards: she’s tan (not milky white), she thicker(not the usual body type), her clothes are “too sexy/inappropriate/revealing” etc. On the other hand, the Korean general public/fellow idols love Hwasa(she’s easily the most well known from MMM. Now I’m gonna try to be as unbiased as possible (I’m a MMM stan/black woman) and lay out some facts about Hwasa past. It’s true Hwasa (and MMM) have done wrong in the past, but only somethings are true, while others are misinformation/mistranslation. True: MMM did blackface(they apologized 4 times), Hwasa said N-word( she sang Beyoncé cover on radio show that gave her lyrics/she apologized/never said it again), and Hwasa wore a durag(no apology but after backlash she never did it again). False: Hwasa called herself “black unnie” (mistranslation), Hwasa tans herself to be darker(no that’s her natural skin tone), she wore Nigerian traditional clothes( no it was upgraded sauna wear), the list goes on.....most things she’s accused of can be traced back to misinformation/mistranslations, but unfortunately haters take those and run w/ them. All this being said Hwasa (and MMM) apologized for their most severe wrongdoing (blackface) & took cultural awareness classes, and never did it again. Personally I forgive them bc I know they’re amazingly genuine people who want to spread happiness and break boundaries for women. I still wholeheartedly love them even tho they’ve made mistakes bc everyone makes mistakes, as long as they’ve learned from & acknowledged those mistakes everything’s okay (in my opinion). 🙂 anyways great reaction as always, I really like your videos 👍🏾
You really need to react to their immortal songs medley for live stages and mama perfomances ❣. But all of their live stages are amazing, i could say they are 4 solo artists that are put in 1 group which have amazing harmonise and balance. Their personality are so friendly and funny 💗🥰. Thanks for the video
Moonbyul has great rap skills, and is well respected, but she is an idol rapper (learned her trade in the kpop corporate world). There are only a few idols who came growing their skills from a rap based history. They include: LE (EXID) who came from a rap crew called Jiggly Fellaz Miryo (Brown Eyed Girls) who came from a rap crew called Honey Family Yoon Mirae (MFBTY) who is the OG rapper in the kpop world. Jessi (soloist) who was in the hip hop group Triple J. BTW, on an aside, the creator credits each show on the top left of the screen if you want to see it.

You can see how moomoos are so connected with the girls with how good the guides are. I thoroughly enjoyed this reaction vid!! You earned a subscriber!
I love your reaction simply because you are really paying attention to Purple Hawk's guide. Moomoos are (so talented) the best PR of Mamamoo, especially in promoting them internationally. Enjoy your MMM journey! Fasten your seatbelt in Part 2 ;)
reason why other guides dont have the same production: they are not focus on vocal talents and vocal tech with wide variety of genre in their music. not shaming other groups cuz they work with what they have. however, mamamoo is a full package for people who enjoy music and like to try out new sound. the best thing is they always deliver or even exceed expectation.
In the early days, Mamamoo's choreography wasn't as complicated as some groups. In the beginning, the members had to much for themselves, choreography, styling, makeup. It wasn't until later on when they began working with 1Million Studios when their choreography began improving. Their detractors made statements implying that their dancing wasn't difficult on purpose otherwise they couldn't belt out those notes they hit. The choreo for Hip was designed to refute that claim. For the first time in their careers they used headset mics because of the choreo. The members hated the headset mics btw and vowed to never do that again.
I love Mamamoo so much! They’re very inspiring and they’re my queens. After you’re done with the guide you should check out their solos! Moonbyul’s eclipse, Solar’s spit it out, and Wheein’s easy. You got a bit of the teaser in the guide but oh well.
I was waiting for your reaction to this introduction(i like it as hell) but I couldn't find it at first: I've tried to search it, scrolled the video list on the channel, until I saw the playlist..I wonder why it was like this (maybe my device doesn't work well) .. I'm new to your channel maybe it was meant to be.. ( fan stuff, intro of groups etc. should be in the playlist and the rest is freely available(reaction to MVs, things safe from copyright?..) I hope it doesn't reduce views.. nevertheless, thank you for your reaction, I really liked it.. you were very attentive, noted details and so on, +you have a pretty good outlook in k-pop: it's fun to see how you reacted to the interaction of participants with people you already know. . I liked your comments and facial expressions.. Thanks for appreciating Purple Hawke's work. . I can't wait for the second part *** I'm not good in English and expressing my thoughts, wrote it using translator, don't be confused, I hope you understand what I said
You did great, I understand you perfectly! If the video is unlisted it won't show up on my main feed but WILL show up on my playlists if it's added to one. I was trimming a few seconds here and there to avoid copyright, so in a way you got early access for using my playlists :D Thank you for all the nice comments!
@@KpopPrince love your reactions.look forward to pt.2 ..can you react to: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h3YCi0qBMzs.html&ab_channel=allie_v.v_ live most po[ular request
I'm so happy you mentioned Wheein so much and noticed her in Aya! She's the least popular member for non-Moomoos and doesn't get as many "killing parts" as the others since she's considered the backbone of MMM. You'll fall in love with her personality for sure, she's crazy behind-the-scenes (:
Aside from 2020 which had the longest break- Mamamoo work too hard all year. In a year they had 4 comebacks with the 4season 4 colour project and concerts on top of that and festivals etc yet Solar uploaded every Monday and Thursday of that year. She's so hard working its crazy
I'm Atiny and Moomoo. I'm atinymoomoo. I subscribed ages ago because of your Ateez reactions, obviously. And I'm sooooooo happy you're getting into Mamamoo!! They are absolutely amazing! I'll be here for your journey!
Can't wait for Part 2 and your reactions for all the title tracks after Mr. Ambiguous!! I'm sure a lot have already recommended the Immortal songs medley, and I swear - you won't regret listening to it! Also the Travel album is SO GOOD!!
In 6 years they have released 2 albums and 10 mini albums/extended plays. Each one of the girls has released solos, and numerous collabs and OSTs. Appeared on many TV shows such as Queendom, Immortal singer, masked singer, and Hee-Yeol's Sketchbook. Makes me feel a little lazy.
This was great, I'm really excited for your reaction to part 2! You're definitely right when you say that the members of Mamamoo seem to challenge norms in a lot of ways. It's one of the reasons why they're my ult group, I absolutely love their self-confidence and authenticity. Also, here's a fun fact that you probably could've guessed after watching this guide: Solar's unibrow in Aya was her idea, and she 100% had to fight the staff to let her do it 😂
It might seem that Solar is just an easy-going, fun, and most of the time a weird leader, but she's not like this before. She used to be so strict to them (she never had a leader position in her entire life until Mamamoo, she was always the maknae) and it caused conflicts especially between Solar and Hwasa because Solar would often scold Hwasa (Hwasa gained her nickname 'my own way' because she rarely listens to anyone even their CEO. Of Course in KPOP, when you're the leader, you take all the blame and this caused Solar to put all her struggles and frustrations toward Hwasa and the other members too, but she said she only got angry at Wheein ONCE) Anyway, as Hwasa grew up she said she didn't understood Solar before but now she does. Also, Solar now knows how to set their mood, to make them listen to her (she only needs to call them once), and to basically lead the whole group. You can actually see videos where they're obviously scared of Yong Leader lol (especially Wheein).
Loved your reaction... Thanks ! You were very attentive and talked about small details (which usually other reactors miss out).. All 4 members of MAMAMOO have such strong personalities. I love them so much.... Can't wait for part 2!!!
@KpopPrince. I'll give you a guide for MAMAMOO Reaction [ ] MV's [ ] Live Perfomances • Queendom performances= 4 (Decalcomanie,Goodluck,I miss you and Destiny) • Immortal song II= 14 (Wait a minute, Passion Flower,Delilah, Backwoods,Wonderful Confession, Violet Fragance, You Fading in my Memory, Flying Into the Night, The way to sampo, Love, Love story of a Girl, Dance in the Rythm, Youre always by my side, Encounter) [ ] Solo Songs and Album. Were going to update you next their live shows Performance and MeMeMoo clips. But these list is neccessary, Every Moomoos watched it.
Woohooo, your reactions were a lot of fun to watch! Love that you are enjoying our girls! You're in for a JOURNEY. Can't wait for my biases on the next part, WheeSa!
I TOTALLY LIKE YOUR REACTION!!!! PLEASE REACT TO MORE MAMAMOO VIDS!!!!!!!! MV, solo mv, FUNNY VIDS, mamamoo being a mess, why mamamoo shouldn't host their own radio(?), Immortal songs medley (vocal are soooooo uhm, they covering old song and arrange it for them, Mamamoo harmonizing vids Etc... There's many video they are playing around on stage.... You'll fall deeper! I assure you will!!! Cause they are addicting... They always like to go with different genre every comeback, like teaching us all kind of song, in music industry, they also play well, eat well... But they are all introvert, only act more than extrovert with their friends / someone they know
Duh, I'm in this hole for Mamamoo's Inmortal songs. It's the first thing I saw from them and it's kind of a problem because you'll never go up from there. Make yourself a favor and sit down, turn on your camera and watch Delilah, or Medley, or Way to Sampoo, or whatever, they are all great. Great reaction. I love Irene's smile too.
Looking forward to your reaction to WHeein and Hwasa's Introduction. You should get to react to their Immortal songs medley after the Introduction guides.
This is my first time watching one of your videos and I absolutely love your energy! You seem genuinely interested when it comes to learning about new groups :D I'll definitely be checking out more of your content!
I like your move here..... Introduction on Mamamoo.... I hope you mkre insight on Mamamoo members, can't wait to see your part 2 on the Introduction. Btw if you wanna see some awesome vocal performance live on stage you can see the Mamamoo medley immortal song concert, I'll put the link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h3YCi0qBMzs.html For a background on the songs, its a compilation of their competition medley immortal songs they put in this concert. These songs are from a competition they participated after they debut to showcase their talent and some won which is rare from a idol group and also made them recognized on their performance and vocal prowess. These songs are famous and legends song from their respected era. These medley immortal song by Mamamoo can also be watched individually or even the full competition per episode(all of this, correct me if I'm wrong) Well can't wait to see more of your Mamamoo reactions.
Jajaja Mamamoo solar y Moonbyul tienen una amistad muy bonita aunque a veces parece algo más... Ya que Moonbyul para casi todo el tiempo en casa de Solar... La última parte es del canal de Solarsido cuando está Yong Bob y Byulcaso muy lindo video.
I'm surprised you don't know mamamoo because it seems like you know a lot of kpop stuff, but I understand mamamoo has always been and it is very different from the standard of girl groups there, this being one of the main factors of her popularity besides pure talent, they are known to always sing live, another difference there, most of the big groups always use resources not mammoo. Vocal queens forever.
