Performer Reacts to NCT 127 'Sticker' & 'Lemonade' Dance Practice | ANALYSIS | Jeff Avenue 

🌟 NCT 127 Sticker album reaction 🌟 NCT 127 in Gapyeong 🌟 PLUS many more on patreon.com/jeffavenue!

Haechan has to be one of my favourite dancers in nct. His fluidity & character is unmatched & so captivating.

Haechan is a secret weapon. I thought I'm the only one who noticed.

Finally Haechan being noticed as a dancer 😭😭

Haechan's pelvic is art

Haechan and taeyong shine for me almost every comeback

i agree haechan absolutely stood out in sticker because the choreography had a lot of fluidity which is his strength

haechan as a main vocalist standing out so often as a perfomer is something to applaud. he really puts in his all for his performance and considering how many comebacks he has already had, he is still so hardworking and his body lines in whichever choreography is always popping. people miss out on him so much because of his usual lack of center in dance moves

haechan really knows how to make a stage his own when being in the centre

Haechan really deserve to be praise by professional. He work hard for being main vocal plus main dancer in one time. Good job Haechan!

HAECHAN is a vocal, but every time he dances he really controls the game!!!

HAECHAN's like the cobra dancing so gracefully to the flute sound. What a total charmer!

as johnny said, haechans pelvic lines are just perfect

Haechan is definitely a performer, his moves, his facial expression. Like, on point !!

it's impossible not to say that Haechan kills everyone on every comeback

Haechan owns this dance practice💛

Always appreciate the compliments and honest reactions towards Haechan each time🙏🏼 More people really need to see him as the performer that he is!

Haechan is the hidden main dancer.

Haechan's part actually was really a reference to Hello Future. They referenced some of their songs in Sticker's choreography. They did Boss, cherry bomb, resonance, regular, 7th sense, simon says and a few more which I don't remember haha. I think it's a really good way to integrate the progress of their discography and different dancing styles into their present dances.

Lemonade was that SONG, but STICKER IS STILL A STANDOUT FROM THE ALBUM.

I love that Haechan always shine in more of a fluid(?) choreography like Sticker and Superhuman

haechan reminds me of baekhyun, he’s the vocal himself but his dance is something incredible

Finally, so much appreciation for Haechan. He really killed this choreography. I love his body line so much to (◍•ᴗ•◍)

Thank you for saying such beautiful things about Haechan 🥺💗

Great reaction and analysis! And Haechan is such a great dancer.

FINALLY!! I love these 2 dance practices because Haechan's dancing has improved so, so much and I'm so proud!! I'm 1 Happy and Lucky Sunflower!!😊😊😊

Those who insist that the song sucks, are those that probably knows only a bit of NCT's discography. NCT is a group that experiments with their sound. They know what people like but they also know what THEY, as artists, like. That's why their albums would have those absolute all-rounder bops and songs that showcase their vocals but they would choose a different sound for their title tracks. Kick It, Regular and all the other title tracks are non--traditional in a sense and they're not afraid to try it out. Even with Dream and WayV.

idk if someone has mention who is the choreographer is but ill just let you know. Sticker was choreohraphed by Antoine Troupe ( Millenium Dance LA ), Prepix dance crew Ilhyung and Joo Youngbeen ( 1Million studio ). Its surprising for me when you mention about the style similar to 1million and Millenium Dance LA! And yes I totally agree with you about the dance on chorus, its not usual kpop moves ( which always sharp, angles on point ), this one is a lot more groovy and bouncy. Totally has more hip hop dance elements.

Haechan is just something else....

haechan's hip is just magical man

Totally agree, i really love how smooth haechan dance on his part.

I love how almost every comment is about Haechan 😭 he's one of the most underrated gems in nct and as a ultimate haechan stan I absolutely love when he gets the attention he deserves! He's an outstanding vocalist and a dancer too, people often overlooks his dance abilities which is very disappointing, also he's a great performer, his stage presentation is one of a kind! Uff I can never stop talking about him ❤️

Haechan is being praised more. I love seeing this. 💚 Haechan has his own style of dancing. He is very fluid, his angles, on point stage presence, and his body control is amazing. He likes to pay attention to details and apply his style. His lead dancer title isn’t just for show. Hope other people appreciate his dancing- he is more than his vocals.

like i think its about time to understand that we all have different taste in music or in everything. if you dont like the song, then dont listen to it. easy as that. you dont need to tell ppl around to dislike it as well or that they're lying about it. it just so ridiculous. im glad that jeff is voicing out about this bcs a lot of youtube reactors got hate comments abt them liking the song. 💚

HAECHAN is definitely a really terrific performer, his charisma, stage presence, dance everything just works with him.

Yaaass Haechan's sooo fluid

Haechan is going places and I'm so here for it.

yeees, i really think that this choreo suits haechan's dance style soooo much. like, there was no performance vids that time but i was alr convinced that it is his song. esp when the choreo's full of fluid yet powerful movements lmfaooo

the most upsetting thing that happened this week for me was definitely during Bangchan’s vlive on sunday (i’m a stayzen). i was one of the people commenting suggesting chan to react to Sticker because i was curious about how he thinks about it since he actually knows music. and as soon as he played it, the comment section was FLOODED by hate comments telling him how horrible the song is, telling him to stop playing it etc. and while he was complimenting 127, people commented that he doesn’t have to pretend to like it. like, really?? people who loves this type of songs exist! me included! and obviously channie too! it was upsetting to see how people think he was pretending to respect his seniors.

I can't remember my first listen to Sticker because all I did was focus on the visuals. But, after all, the reason I stan NCT is their experimental title tracks and they delivered and I'm satisfied.

I think it's time to understand that just because you don't like the song that doesn't mean everyone has to dislike the song. People have different opinions and also STOP CALLING ANY SONG TRASH JUST BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T LIKE IT

Haechan went off in these dance practices!

Haechan has definitely improved a lot be it vocals or dance...the ACE ❤️

YESSIR let's goooo

I'm still trying to recover from the Sticker Mafia dance lol Taeyong slayed it while listening to a slower song. It was insane, knowing the steps are matched up with the songs notes. You also gotta love the references to the previous tracks like Boss mentioned by Taeyong in Sticker (and him doing the killing point of Boss)

As for sticker's choreo I heard that Taeyong said there were actually 2 kind of choreo and they decided to choose the second one... And I think sticker was chosen as a title track because of the music but regardless, both sticker and lemonade are such great songs

i'm happy reading all the comments praising haechan. he deserves all of the praises

There are a lot of hidden gems in NCT but I can assure you, Haechan is the #1 hidden gem. 💚

‘That moves. It’s hard to synchronize’ Meanwhile, Taeyong did it perfectly with different music on mafia dance with dingo😩He’s truly amazing

I love Sticker, in fact I think it's better than Lemonade. I love Lemonade but I'm one of the ones who feel like Lemonade would have been safe if it was a title track. Sticker was something only NCT could do and did it extraordinary well. Besides, the people hating it now will be the ones loving it when their favorite groups trys to do it a year or so from now. Not a bad thing, but I think people just love to hate NCT titles because it's the cool thing to do. Anyway, tangent over. Jungwoo killed the sticker choreography! They all did!

I also like that taeyong danced to Boss in sticker during the “네가 boss란 말이야” and i think jungwoo did too on his small section. again, taeyong credited a small part of cherry bomb in lemonade! it’s the little details that makes these two choreographies really amazing to me

I find it interesting that you mentioned lyrical hiphop! NCT hasn’t done it for a while since NCT U’s debut with the 7th sense so i was glad to see this style return :)

I like Sticker since the first time listening. Why people think that no one like it and if someone likes it, he/she lies? I LIKE IT!!

Haechan appreciation yasss

If you would notice, the opening part of Sticker looked like a rivalry between Jaehyun's side who moved first then Taeyong's side moved where as the middle part, Jungwoo moves in both. They used this "story" in Who Is Sticker where Jaehyun represented the past and Taeyong represents the future thus they were at the opposite ends of the table and Jungwoo is the median. And then the same story was used in the music video, Taeyong and Jaehyun were the only ones wearing the outfit with flames and the scenes showed how they're on opposite sides. The little yet very consistent details they incorporated in the whole Sticker concept will make you in pure awe!! As always, I love watching your analysis of their dances~

can we talk about how quick haechan moves and how sharp, and precise his movements are. look at 20:57, the screen is practically white because hes moving so fast

Haechan!! 🤯 Dreamies mention!! 🥳

Everything about NCT, I try to watch it as quick as possible🤣

22:18 yup you're definitely a fanboy 🤣 suddenly it's reminded me to your Diggity reaction video LMAO

Taeyong def has made his own style in dancing and had also made it a huge part of nct's brand, I've noticed other younger members are also following their leader's steps and that's really interesting. Taeyong is right up there with kai, teamin & lay in term of being a prominent dancer

The part where their choreo matches to the sound of the flute in sticker is so cool !

NO CUZ I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR AGES NOW!! MARK HAS THE BEST HEAD MOVEMENT IN EVERY CHOREO THEY PERFORM!! HE KNOWS ITS PROPER PLACEMENT AND HE KNOWS THE RIGHT TIME TO USE IT IN ORDER TO EMPHASIZE A CERTAIN MOVE!! I LOVE HOW YOU POINTED THAT OUT THANK YOU 😩✊

I actually like Sticker more, too. The song, mv, choreo, outfit, everything. Why are some people so shocked to hear that tho

Yes i agree that HAECHAN

you seem to be the only one who truly recognises how much haechan shines this comeback. i am always so in awe of him

Stickers is really stand out in term of music, vocal and performance. For me, lemonade has a lot of repetition in the lyrics n dance. So its really suit as a bside track.

I also noticed that Taeyong late moment during Lemonade's bridge. I thought he was really late. I resumed to watch this part again and again to understand what's wrong and it turned out DOMINO effect with him (Taeyong), Yuta, and Johnny. Their arms went down while others went up. You can pause that part to see their arm position haha. The formation didn't symmetrical, but i think that's intentional to give a complex impression. Idk Hahaha. But the imagery didn't look well so our eyes interpreted as "late". Idk, maybe because of the speed haha

haechan is a great dancer and i think he’s hiding more of that talent under his sleeves. (i also think that he ain’t showing them cos he don’t wanna go overboard of his position as a lead dancer)

"good stamina" thinking about that time where yuta said he used to run 8km for soccer practice with a rope around his waist thats tied to a tire. and how long he could hold his breath underwater during nct life. no wonder he picked lemonade as a favourite track LMAO

As a flute player, I think the sound is fun. Very 127.

Jeff: Mark has just been bias wrecking me True

Love him mentioning 1M dance studio!! Would love your reactions to their content as well Jeff!! and Of Course, Taeyong is the king of unique dance!!

Tbh I wasn't too keen on the song when they released it but it has grown on me ever since. It's very unique, very SM style and I think the flute does wonders for the music. The song is unbearably addictive.

When it comes to nct dance practices my go to reaction video is yours Jeff. I love how you dissect each move and gives meaning to everything. Its not just a reaction video but you give us a lot of ideas about dancing and i love it so much. Keep it up.

Yasss Jeff is a man of TASTE. Sticker is absolutely better than Lemonade. Far more experimental and intricate and interesting.

I dont know if anyone's pointed it out yet but when taeyong and jungwoo sing their lines in the pre chorus they say boss and do part of the boss choreo

What if Jeff becomes an actual mentor in a kpop training 👀

i mean SM artists does give songs that may seem odd at the first listen, but ended up liking them anyway. it’s their charm.

I mean.. NCT itself is the genre, it's just so NCT

have you watched haechan's fancam of baby dont like it? that's the first time I kind of got obsessed with his moves. there's really something about his moves that you cant help but focus on him 😂

Dude the flute is what makes the song! It might just be me but I just love experimental music.

At this point, The Taeyong is already a brand and a genre himself.. i love it when you say, "its so Taeyong"😊

NCT adds color everytime they use dynamics! 😭💚 they are all genius dancer dang i stan!

Don't worry, there seem to be some mean people hating on my favorite youtubers for liking sticker🥲 but we don't care cuz they're just LEMONS and are too dumb to understand that everyone (intellectuals) is free to like whatever they want 💚 thx for the lovely reaction🥰

Ikr haechan's dance is effortless with a smooth move

I also feel odd when I first listen to Sticker but after a few listen I got addicted to it and I’ve been listening to it for a week now and IT’S A BOP.

I'm glad you were able to react to the dance practices, I'm very excited for the comeback and I hope we can continue to stream and support NCT127

jeff the sweetest person LOOK AT HIM I WANNA CRY so adorable

26:50 I remember seeing a small clip where Taeyong is leading the dance practice and helping sync their arm movements here 👍

I love how you dive into some of the finer technicalities and consistently cross-reference other genres, agencies, just different versions of the performance arts when analyzing these videos. I always appreciate the extra information and that you always re-explain what words and phrases mean so that those who are unfamiliar with them have a better understanding of what you’re talking about. All of this aside…. I’m obsessed with NCT. Every single person in this group has their very own unique style when it comes to vocals & dance and the way they take advantage of that fact to bring themselves together as one whole cohesive unit never ceases to amaze me. I never get tired of watching them dance or perform because no matter where you look, there’s always something new. And I love the fact that they have so many repetitive motifs of movements, sounds & the words they use in their songs. Everything about NCT is so neo chaotic but no one makes it work better than they themselves. I’ve only been into Kpop since April of this year. The very first group I got into was actually StrayKids and I love them so much but from the very first moment I caught a glimpse of Taeyong’s captivating movements and body lines and I immediately fell in love with the whole group to the point I learned all 23 members and their group dynamics in a day before I just randomly dug their choreography, finding myself trapped. Nct quickly found themselves as my very top favorite artists among alllll of the different music I listen to because they’re just that insane to me. Anyways, sorry for the long ass paragraph 😅 if you see any of my comments,‘I guarantee you at least half of them are about this length and many even longer lol but I just never seem to run out of things to say about them 🤷

Same! I too belong to that minority who like Sticker more as a song and as a choreography. I just think Sticker is very different, it's unique.

Interesting how you commented on how Sticker’s choreo is heavily hiphop influenced with a tiny bit of ballet touch. Jungwoo’s been going STRONG on the comeback stages (trust me, he’s SOOO different from practice vids on stage lol). I’ve been wondering why and then I remember that Jungwoo was trained in hip hop and ballet before he joined SM (his team even won some nationwide competitions too!). Maybe that’s one of the reasons why he seems to be more in his element in this comeback lmao. Mark in this comeback reminds me of his SuperM days, he SHINESSS. There’s something about Mark doing a darker, mature and badass hip hop concept. I mean he was iconic in SuperM but it’s hard to focus just on him knowing his bandmates (it was practically impossible to focus on just one person in SuperM, really) Like Jungwoo, Mark seems to be really in his element when he’s dancing hip hop. I wish Mark as a dancer would be more highlighted lmao I love his swag and his footwork. Fun fact: Mark went to SOPA and he took a practical dance major, which is the most difficult majors to get into (Kai was also a part of it!) Your comment about Taeyong’s outfit lmaooo twt was filled with how Taeyong would be wearing the flashiest outfits on dance practice videos I just love him 😂 And oh, Haechan… I really wish that SM would give him more opportunity. The kid’s sooo talented in so many fields. Dancing? Check. Singing? Check. Variety? Check. Haechan straight up ended me in his SWF parody in MMTG 😭😭😭

to everyone who loves sticker: don't be afraid to say you love the song! just don't listen to other people and keep listening to the songs you love despite other people's opinions 💚

We shouldn't insult someone's artwork, whether it's a song or a painting or even a fashion. Every art has each soulmate.

Haechan Ace!

Jeff! Gotta give it to you, your dedication is honestly admirable. Thank you for taking the time to describe every detail even with your editing self, you never let things slide. I can tell this must've taken forever so thank you for being so awesome and informative about their dances 🥺💕

never seen that analysis video, but what your describing about taeyong is hypermobility (some ppl refer to it as being 'double jointed')

I don't really understand those who says that they doesn't like STICKER and pushes others to dislikes it too. I think those who doesn't like it are those who doesn't really listen to them. Gosh, they've been experimenting the music for years now and you can see it even in their b-sides. You know why NCT 127 is remarkable it's because they are the only group who have the courage to create their own identity and not to be "be like other" kpop group to satisfy the likes of many. They create their own character and not afraid to go against the "usual". Personally, I actually prefer Sticker more. The more you listen to it, the more you will love to hear to it again and again. I'm telling you... I commend Jeff really for calling out. Jeff is my go to reactor of music videos and practices. Love yahhh Jeff... 😊😊😊

haechan always dances this well in every single dance practice but people fail to notice him because of his lack of center

22:31 the way he described it as "bump bump" really made me laugh HAHAHA
