ALSO! I dont know if you've heard about it but last Dec 2 on Asian Artist Awards, Seventeen took home 3 major awards. They won Fabulous Award and Singer of the Year (Daesang).. but everyone was shocked because our Woozi won thr Best Producer..he was the youngest to earn the award in the history of AAA 😭😭😭
carats consider BUMZU as seventeen's honorary 14th member! he has worked with the boys since the verrrry beginning and the members are all very close with him. thanks to BUMZU, woozi was able to get into producing and he was the one who nutured him and taught him! you can find a bunch of videos with BUMZU with the boys so i think that as a baby carat its important to acknowledge him in seventeens work as well. not only is he a producer that works on seventeens stuff with woozi, but he's also an artist himself with some of his own music out! and if you see any clips of svt and woozi in the studio, BUMZU is usually there too - he appears often in their behind the scene stuff. attacca is one of my fav seventeen albums im glad you enjoyed it!!
Pang is actually the sound of a balloon popping…they kinda gave us a heads up about it in the highlight medley where they were popping bubbles in the video. 😂 The song itself is full of metaphors actually, like balloons popping represents their hearts bursting. Usually, when performance unit releases a song, we look forward to the choreography but unfortunately, we haven’t gotten one for this song yet so we just keep pang pang pang pang pang-ing for now. 😂 Also, just a little info, the Korean title of Imperfect Love is actually the last line in the song, which Joshua translated as “Everyday I’m happy because of you.” ❤️
Woozi is super romantic, also the members say so..but he kind of denied this comment many times😂 He won the award for the best producer just Yesterday at Asian Artist Awards , there's a clip on RU-vid subbed in English ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qrnMRDq29eg.html - In the first song Woozi's ad libs are spectacular - 8:35 it's DK the crazy high note - They performed Crush and To you in the comeback live, and on genie Vernon and Joshua performed 2 minus 1 live^^ - 12:35 PANG! Is onomatopoeia, the bubble is exploding, this song is full of metaphors - 35:11 Seungkwan won't let Dino be your 1st bias😂
Finally! So excited for you to react to this. We will appreciate honest reviews because we know that not every song will vibe with everyone. Just a very important tip if you are slowly entering carataland. BUMZU is actually a very very close person ti Seventeen. He is Seventeen's vocal coach since pre-debut. He took Woozi under his wing and taught him how to produce music. He is very special to carats. 😭🥺 Almost like the 14th member of the group. You will see him on some Seventeen videos like Seventeen Project and Hit The Road
most of their songs are dedicated to carats. that is why their connection towards carats is very strong since seventeen writes these beautiful, encouraging, comforting words and messages themselves
Pang! was confusing at 1st but after learning about the balloon metaphor, it became a favorite. It has a really cheery vibe. To you is my no. 1 though because OT13 ballad type songs are everything!
Thank you for reacting to attacca!! Its really a pleasant surprise coz not a lot of people with music background check out albums so to hear a review from a perspective that knows what they're talking about is always a treat. As a HHU, Stan I feel that HHU is more on to the experimental side of hip-hop. Their non album stuff are what you would mostly find in album releases of other known hip-hop and rap heavy Kpop groups and they switch it up for their actual album songs. They kind of veer towards the more r&b side of hip-hop mostly cause the individual member's taste are very much into that. Wonwoo, Mingyu and s.coups love ballads and classic Korean pop songs with more of modern western r&b (artists like Lauv, Khalid, MAX) while Vernon is a mixed bag of influence (Frank Ocean, Post Malone, Tobi Lou, BROCKHAMPTON). And the fact that they do a lot of their own wiritng kinda shows where they pull their influences from and it's always fascinating to hear them reference other artists sound in their own works. Also since you asked if Vernon listened to the likes of blink182!!! He def did. He once did a vlive playing just old punk pop songs like green day basket case, avril's sk8er boi, arctic monkeys' r u mine etc... And since you said you think you're more hip hop unit biased, please I wanna introduce you to the diff sides of HHU but I can't link a reddit post here huhu
Basically we have 3 tom and jerry relationships in SVT 1. Dino and Seungkwan 2. Mingyu and Seungkwan 3. Hoshi and Seungkwan But no 1 and 3 really argue a lot hahaha. Seungkwan is having big time with everyone.
PANG! is weird, YES and that's why it's my fav lmao once you hear it will stay in your head all day For your performance reactions of these songs, dunno if you know, but Jun and The8 are currently in China spending time with their family and solo projects (Jun is filming a drama and The8 os attending lots of stuff+OSTs and TV), so some of the performances won't have them, afortunally they left lots of content recorded Boo attacca (hehe) again! So lucky the bookmark is also Boo 😂 it's usually different member, also that Wonwoo pc 🤩 And yes, you have to build the album (I haven't done mine lmao) don't use the metal thingies it's better to use lace so the pages stay safe Also SVT uploaded a DIY tutorial of the albums, everyone did a different thing, you can check that video out, you can find it as SEVENTEEN DIY ALBUM DECORATION (SVT being chaotic what's new) 🥰
The Hiphop unit songs are often my favourites as well, though sometimes tied with Performance unit. I forget what albums they're on but What's Good and Chili (both Hiphop unit) were the two songs when I first started getting into Seventeen that I just could not stop listening to.
Fun fact: You notice them being in age order on the lyric video. But on the 97line, the oldest is DK, then Mingyu then The8... But they always put it as The8 then Mingyu then DK. It's because of The8's request to be put as the 8th member on the line up due to his name w/c is totally fine w/ the members. So even on the fanchant w/c is in age order, The8 comes first on the 97line instead of DK.
I think the crazy for you parts in crush are done by woozi and dk Also, each unit usually has one song in each album. Except for semicolon, the unit songs were done by age instead. Unfortunately I don’t think there are stages for the unit songs rn :( Also, idk if u ever want to watch funny content anytime soon, but I suggest the svt series by mwuahjk (or really any video by mwuahjk) I learned their names really easily by watching funny content, and literally every member is so entertaining Edit: heng:garæ also doesn’t have any unit songs!!
Also last thing, To You and Crush actually has performance videos on their Seventeen Channel. They performed it on Attacca Comeback Show. But, Jun and The8 is not there because they are currently in China.
Hi Austin, if you do another MV binge video I recommend the mixed unit MV’s. There’s 5 of them. Wonwoo and Mingyu - Bittersweet Seventeen leader line - Change Up BooSeokSoon - Just Do It S.Coups, Vernon and Woozi - Q&A And Jun and The8 - My I 5 totally different songs and judging by your music taste I think you might like Q&A and Bittersweet the most! They also have more fan mvs and unit mvs that you haven’t seen, it’s a journey lol. But maybe doing the rest of their title tracks would be better. I think all you have left are Thanks, Oh My, Home and Hit!
he already saw Q&A but youtube blocked and he really liked it hahahahahahahaahahaha if you wanna see, in the marathon that he watched Boom Boom there's the link to the reaction in the description of the video
I think you'll love Semicolon a lot. I think you'll love their discography as a whole really. They have good stuff. Excited for you to discover them more and more!
Hip-hop unit does have a lot of incredible songs! Here are my favorite songs from each unit: Vocal unit: Second Life, When I Grow Up (this song is too underrated!) Performance unit: 247 (the vocals though), MOONWALKER Hip-hop unit: IF I, Check-In, Chili Other units: Bring It (Hoshi/Woozi), CHANGE UP (SVT Leaders), Doremi (Maknae line)
Every sweet even bittersweet lyrics of Seventeen songs are for Carats. That's why I love them, and maybe the reasons why almost most of Carats are loyal to Seventeen or the Ult. stan is Seventeen. I'm not late am I? I would like to welcome you in Caratland!! It's been weeks since I started watching your reaction videos to our sebongs! And I am happy seing you dive deeper every reaction to the Diamond Life!! Thanks for your reaction and appreciation to our Sebongs.
Finally an Seventeen album reaction !!!! Love your reactions Austin and looking forward to more ❤ can't wait for "your choice" album reaction because it's my favorite Seventeen album recently. Keep being lovely ~~
Vernon has constantly shared with us his love of Avril Lavigne and Green Day and he's talked about wanting to do something like those two artists for a while and then bam, 2-1 was born lol
FUNFACT.. - TO YOU, in part "im thankfull for you who welcome me when i open the door" woozi said he imagine his pet welcome him home, when in facts he dont hv one 😂...imaginary pet - CRUSH, they argued for abt 1 hour whether they gonna use hat or not end they end up using it but took it off in the middle of the performance - I CANT RUN AWAY, was wrote before bittersweet that supposed to be hip hop (ballad lol) song but end up to be Wonwoo Mingyu duet - 2 MINUS 1, vernon said they were inspired by Avril Lavigne song
Bumzu is one of the main producers of seventeen! He's been with the group for... forever!? And worked with woozi since always too, he also is an artist himself! He truly is part of the svt fam and loved by the fandom as well :')
“Going seventeen” and “ henggarae” are my favourite seventeen albums, love literally every song, also “semi colon” and “director’s cut” (I can’t choose sorry they just have masterpieces)
To be honest, vocal-hip hop unit is a relatively newer development that I am absolutely in love with. You were correct in assuming for the most part, it is a bit more rap heavy. But I there's been a change ever since Mingyu and Wonwoos "Bittersweet " and I am SO HERE FOR IT. I love their voices so much
OHMYGOD i'm so happy you reacted to their album! this is so amazing :) i feel like every svt songs has a beautiful lyrics, super emotional so i really love it. their b sides are really good including their early discography, so hope u could enjoy more of their songs! i'm always thankful for u making these amazing videos, cuz me as a carat can enjoy svt stuff with you again😀😀 have a nice day, and see u on next vid😆
Pang! is the sound of balloon popping. The song is actually telling that "when you come closer to me, i will burst like a balloon because i can't handle you. You are my oxygen and you fill me up until i burst from your love"
Is Austin’s bias line the whole maknae line? 😂 Interestingly enough they actually made a song featuring maknae line (Seungkwan, Vernon and Dino) called Doremi from their [Home;Run] album
You got another Boo photocard wow haha he's really coming at you. And also Wonwoo! How i wish i got THAT photocard from henggarae, he's my ult bias but not always showing up in my albums :((
If Mr. Boo is your top vocalist in SVT, Chen of EXO also thinks the same. He complimented Seungkwan in one of his interviews. Yup, top vocalists recognize each other.
Pang! talks about how they liken themselves to balloons and they ate so in love to this girl that they feel like they're about to burst whenever they're with the girl ☺️☺️❤️ It's actually a really sweet song of blossoming love too ☺️
When I hear you talking about rocker Vernon and rock song, I don't know why I wanna watch you react to 'HipHop team in 2017 SEVENTEEN 1st World Tour Diamond Edge' so bad. lol
SVT album often has this one or two songs that are about love w/c I always just assumes are meant for Carats or for the members. It's To You on this album.
PANG! Is the sound made by balloons if they pop. It's kind of like a comparison of their heart and a balloon. So they say 'don't come any closer or i'll PANG!' Means that if you come closer my heart can't take it anymore and might just explode with all of these emotions (prolly love) inside me. At least that's my understanding of the song. And it is catchy.
10:24 “ I hear Hoshi sing and I’m like , YEAH. VOCAL UNIT. but I know they’re not. It’s just that they’re really good singers.” Literally me every time I listen to Hoshi or basically anyone from the performance unit sing. They’re so freaking good!
29:07 I believe he did!! He once posted a picture of green day on WeVerse, loves Avril (esp sk8r boi, he even showed us in insta he streamed her new release bite me) and he posts something about the 2000s punk rock! ❤️
Something I saw on Twitter regarding Attacca is that the last lyrics of the album “I need you” are the same as the first “You I always need you”. I don’t know if it’s on purpose but that fits the concept too, like this album never stops and goes back in full circle
Thank you for reacting and loving svt, your video is the first things i see besides svt content in yt😍🙌 And just wanted you to know.. some svt songs are really good when seen live..either its the performance or the choreo that makes the song even better.. for example: jam jam, rock, crush, etc. So pls watching their live stage too i swear u never regret it because their live is always so good and they give 100% fr😊 some of their bside songs can be title tracks too, sometimes they only performed their bside track on award shows and people think its their title track😅 even other groups think songs like HIT and GETTING CLOSER are the title tracks even though it's just bside. And for the next reaction pls add : - Rock With You 007 edition (just bcs their visuals in this one amazing😀 i swear svt with suit/mafia concept 🔥) - CRUSH (the choreo and the concept-) -To You (vocals...) - and yeah 2 minus 1 & rock with you band live -
Every Album from SvT has a song for carats that usually talks about being grateful and being thankful TO YOU is that song in this album !!! they are so sweet TO YOU IS MY FAVE song I didn't know at first but after I a month I can say I can let that song go I listen to it almost everyday
I am so happy you already started on album reactions! And Attacca is such a good album! But omg there's a looot lot more to discover! May I suggest starting from their first album 17Carat going up? It's cool you get to see their improvement and growth! And SEVENTEEN is so versatile, it's going to be a great journey of genres, plus the beautiful lyrics. And I guess it's just coincidence that you got to listen to more "mellow" hip hop unit songs. Hahaha You'll get to enjoy their other unique tracks! Performance unit has some unique tracks too! But vocal unit, their songs are just my favourite! Literally all vocal unit songs are my top 5 for Spotify Wrapped 2021! Oh I am just so excited! Can't wait for you to discover more!
wow thank u for reacting to them again! Glad that you are enjoying it. When you told that woozi is the best producer I SCREAMED😭 BECAUSE HE JUST WON AN AWARD FOR BEST PRODUCER IM SO PROUD😭 (hope yoy can react to their heng:garae album next! It's one of the best album! The Album Of the year that we never had :( it/s really so good!) ( Dino and seungkwan friendship is a mood tho 😂
although many of their bsides sound like sweet romatic songs, they are mostly dedicated to carats to thank their fans for all their love. some of the songs include to you, all my love, thanks, hug, us again
I was so looking forward your reaction on this album!!! The notification made my day. I was super hyped when it came cuz i was waiting for it to be amazing, and it didn't disapoint. I love it sm, and made me want to know more ab them. I'm so happy you liked the album
Hi Austin… glad to see you continuing support Seventeen 😆 anyway if you would like to hear more live performance, maybe you could search their latest concert ‘Power of Love’ (online concert). Some people posted the clips on youtube. Their D-2 performance is a must to see in my opinion. Its just so beautiful from the beginning til the end.
I'm not sure if anyone told you already but Joshua and Vernon did say in a interview that 2 minus 1 is inspired from Avril Lavigne's 2000s music, they have another song called Rocket.
Pang! is an onomatopoeai for a popping sound like for a balloon. That's why the lyrics is I'm a balloon, don't come closer or I'll pop (since they are shy?or something haha)
mr austin i think you like mamamoo too right ? maybe if you have time , you can check svt and mamamoo collab stage they did together . svt perform egotistic and mamamoo perform very nice also and then they have a collab stage clap + yes i am remix together its so cute
Wow! I didn't expect you to react to a full mini album yet, so I'm very happy you started with Attaca! (My second fave mini of theirs) I haven't read all the other comments, so idk if someone told you this already but, if I remember correctly, To You is open to interpretation, it's about the trivial things that cause you small happiness, Woozi said that for him, it was when his pet greeted him when he goes home (fun fact, this is how we found out he has a pet lol). For Crush at 08:28 you asked who did the high notes, it's DK as well, he is harmonizing in his part (it's that the correct term? I don't know much about music, sorry) For Pang! If I'm completely honest, when I heard it in the teaser, I legit said "Wth is this??" and I though that I could end up skipping it quite often, but as you said, there are some songs that take a couple of listens and this was one of them. Now this one is like a serotonin boost, I can't help but smile every time I listen to it, it's so fun and cheerful! Hoshi said this was originally more heavy on hip hop, but it didn't match the vibe of the album, so they made it sound cuter lol, and it is indeed a metaphor of them being balloons and PANG is the onomatopoeia of a popping balloon hehe And you asked if Vernon grew up listening to pop punk bands and yes, Vernon has mentioned he did grow up listening to that genre of music, he really REALLY likes Avril Lavigne too! Also 2 minus 1 is just a digital single, it wasn't included in the physical album. My ranking for this album is To You and Crush being #1 and the rest being #2, the album is just too good for me to rank individually. For the live stages of this era you will see only 11 members since Jun and Minghao have been doing solo activities in China for 3 months so :( no Pang! live stage yet either :(( There is a video of Joshua, Jun, Wonwoo and Seungkwan putting together the Hengarae album and decorating it, but it's just them murdering the albums and inclusions, only Boo was kind to the album lmao Last time you said you could be Perf Unit biased after Lilili Yabbay, today you said you could be Hip Hop unit biased, I think we can expect you being Vocal Unit biased the next video then? hahaha As always, amazing reaction, thank you so much for it Austin!
Thank you for reacting and loving svt 💗 And for the next reaction pls add : - Rock With You 007 edition (just bcs their visuals in this one amazing😀 i swear svt with suit/mafia concept 🔥) - CRUSH (the choreo and the concept-) -To You (vocals...) - and yeah 2 minus 1 & rock with you band live
In February next year, I'll be a CARAT for 8 years...(wHaT??? lol) I liked them even more as I listened to their b-tracks. So... Listening to B-side tracks is like promising them my future....................I like their old albums more and vocal team songs more. Hope you enjoy! I really enjoyed your video~~~~⁎◕Ɛ◕⁎˚₊
They do always do that. Make a song sound so fun and cheerful when its really have a sad lyrics. (Im looking at you STILL LONELY) Woozi is a freaking genius. 🤣
I feel like driving music perfectly sums up Seventeen's vibe lol😂 not all their songs, but when I try to make playlist based on moods a lot of their songs end up in the driving category😅
omg yay! commenting early, i hope you enjoy the album 😆💗 okay edited the comment cause i finished the vid!! i'm glad you enjoyed the album!! seventeen has such a great and strong discography and they have bsides that could pass as title tracks in my opinion. i hope you react to their full albums next! such as love&letter, teen age, and an ode, because those albums are absolutely beautiful. also i can't believe you keep getting boo as your photocards, he's really following you 😆
in PANG! they are a balloon and we are the sun thats why it says don't come closer because they were going to PANG! (pop or burst because we(the sun) are hot.
2 minus 1 is a digital-only song, so it technically doesn't fit - Vernon said they were inspired by Avril Lavigne, so definitely early 2000s vibes! Hip-hop unit were definitely more harder-hitting in their earlier albums but they've been more experimental - hyperpop, lofi, trap, they go the whole spectrum depending on what their into and the album theme
I did hear in an interview that Joshua and Vernon were heavily influence by early 2000s pop punk for this song. And Vernon did mention Blink-182 as one of the bands!:)
I was obsessed with Pang! the first time I heard it and it’s actually one of my favorite songs they’ve put out this year, but I also completely understand how some people are confused the first time they hear it 😂😂
Yea, I don't usually bias the maknae, the maknae line maybe. I think Astro is the only exception with Sanha. I really liked your reaction. Rock with you is still my favorite song of the album, followed by I can't run away. Can't wait for more Seventeen reactions
