la vie en rose is a famous expression along the lines of seeing the world through rose coloured glasses. some kind of dreamy optimistic version of reality. edith piaf's song by that name might be the most well known iteration of it in music. loving your reactions!
"Eyes on me. Hello, we are IZ*ONE (Eyes-One)" IZ*ONE = 12*ONE = 12*1 "12 stars coming together as 1" PRODUCE48 ; 48 Korean contestants & 48 Japanese contestants 4+8 = 12 big number pun kek all over
I am so happy these days thanks to IZONE, they remind me of SNSD back in the days. All the members get so well together, their shows are so good to watch because of that ! I've been SONE for the past 10 years and it makes me feel so good to have find another group that makes me as excited to watch as them ! Also as a French who can speak japanese and korean all the pronunciations were so fun haha
I never stan any group aside SNSD. I always update and listen to music from another groups but never truly stan them. IZ*ONE is the only group that I stan other than my queen GG. They just have the similar feel to GG I just don't know why. You should watch each members performance in the show to truly appreciate them tho. Some members is very underused in the group. But each of them are so diverse. Like each has different strength and weakness.
also thankyou for making me laugh. you re definitely THE BEST reactor out there who actually take an effort to know the group well while making us laugh and enjoy the experience. keep it up dylan. i am a huge fan.
The song means to make your perspective red or positive and try to imagine your life in pink or imagine positively . The i dont wanna make it blue is like i dont want to be negative. The short and direct meaning of the song is to look for the brighter sides of life
They are all really young too the center is 14/15 They made a mini cover of snsd the boys And into the new world ballad version on the show, you need to do their song rumor
You are for sure my favourite reactor at the moment! I also really appreciate that you've been into Kpop for a long while with SNSD too - a lot of reactors are new which is great but they often make statements regarding the comebacks of kpop legends etc that make it clickbait without a great deal of context and it just comes across fake. You're always super real!
I love your reactions because I feel like you can be really honest on whether or not you like something, which honestly makes these videos so much more worth watching.
After watching your fav song from every group I was like... wonder if he doesn't like or if he just hasn't heard of gugudan... so I was gonna ask you to check them out. I'm still gonna ask cause gugudan is amazing, every song is completely different with a different theatre/movie concept but at the same time I'm mildly terrified if you do cause who knows what kind of translations you'll find for their lyrics XD kpop always sounds ridiculous in direct translations, I laughed so much. Also had to giggle when you tried so hard to pronounce Suki to Iwasetai (good effort tbh) and then never even noticed that you were singing it XD
thanks for reacting to izone!! they also have great discography you can check them out. most of the sones i know also fell in love with the group bcs they're talented and really funny on variety too.
OMG, finally someone else realized that La vie en rose it's about PINK, while the song is all about red! I actually had a conversation with a Korean that confirmed me that the first time that the expression "La vie en rose" was translated in Korean, the translator had done a very poor job, so he mistook "Rose" as the flower and not the pink colour, because in French they are both called Rose... So basically Koreans have been saying the wrong translation for ages now and no one cared to change that 😅 This is a topic that is particularly dear to me, as I study translation, and the fact that the song didn't match with the meaning of its title just bothered me so much 🤣
Glad to see your reactions for IZ*ONE, I'm a old sone and this is the only gg group for this new generation that I really follow actively. You should check some of Chaeyeon dance covers, she is a legit dance queen in the same sense that Hyoyeon is.
o my god you wouldnt believe it but i was actually thinking of posting a comment on your channel to check iz*one out almost 10 mins before you posted the video.. im so happy you loved them tho.
/ *Violeta - A delicate flower, beautiful, strong yet sensitive.* / I think what the lyrics meant by *"bright" like red in LaVie en Rose* is that it gets more attention since it's used when there's emergency, when something is up, when the alarm is on, traffic light etc.
My favorite IZ*ONE song is probably Highlight. Which was from their second album (the one with Violeta.) I honestly didn't really expect much going in. I was so pleasantly surprised when I first heard the song that I had to verbally yell out: "What the fuck, this good?!"
I really enjoy your videos like these and the Loona where you look at multiple songs in order! I followed a lot of Produce 48, I like this group I just feel uncomfortable with how they're managed. Like the owner of Produce 48 show pretty much straight up said that the survival show full of girls as young as 13 was like "safe kiddie porn" which is disgusting and like NOTHING happened besides some people getting upset. And I saw a japanese interview with them and the host was making a ton of weird comments towards the youngest member(15?), and I just feel like if this was MY group I was managing, this shit would not fly. I like their songs, they do feel a little more manufactured than the usual girl group but that to be expected with the set up. Their new song is good though.
I’m glad you liked them :) I didn’t watch PD48, but I like their music a lot I hope this isn’t repetitive because I’m new to your channel, but if you haven’t checked out Oh My Girl, I think you’d really like their music :) their discography is great and pretty diverse
Dylan! Glad you're using your great skills making me laugh as you explore these song. Long time subscriber. Thanks fro entertaining us all these years. 😍
i love this and i love izone. violetta is their best song imo too. the chorus and dance is amazing. also i always thought they meant violet like the flower
I found Everglow's video and then came looking if there was any Izone video, I loved it "These girls are petty" I loved that, I know you already did Fiesta, I saw that one, but they also have 2 other japanese singles, Buenos Aires and Vampire, and one korean that came out recently, Secret Story of the Swan, also a japanese one is coming out soon, Beware, you could react to those
I love this group so much!! A collab between the jpop group AKB48 and its sister groups and Kpop!! Ugh this group slays me everytime. My favorite title track so far is Violeta and my favorite Bside is Gokigen Sayonara.
First video I watched yours and I had to subscribe to your channel. You are very funny! The girl you said at 3:33 is the same one who's dancing in the water later. Her name is Yujin and she is only 15 years old, is one of the singers and one of the main dancers, besides being a rapper and acting. And make other videos by reacting to the other songs on the albums!!!
IZ*ONE is a mix of korean trainees and AKB48 members, formed on Produce48 where almost half of the contestants are members of AKB48 and it’s sister groups
Produce48 actually had 96 participants in it, but it has 48 in the title because it was a collaboration between Mnet's Produce series and the AKB48 Group (with members from several of the Japanese subunits, such as AKB48, SKE48, and HKT48 participating). The 3 Japanese members of IZ*ONE are from this.
i love how u said violeta is ur fav izone song. a lot of people actually had mixed emotions with violeta since la vie en rose was a BOP,,,, A WHOLE BOP and it took days for them to actually like the song. thank u for reacting to my girls!!! they came from the 3rd season of produce... react to wanna one? :) their brother group whose contract ended 4 months ago but still doing great individually!

Dylan: ooh spread those legs girls Also him: actually I don't know how old these girls are so maybe don't spread them I'm cackling hahahahaha if you only knew😆😆😆 You're so funny Dylan specially whenever you prounce the title of the songs and the names of the members and group😂
Violet is indeed a flower and a color (and a given-name) and Violeta is Violet in spanish and portuguese (and i think other languages as well). I guess they meant the person they love is like a flower to them? That's what i got XD So that's why they want to protect the person. Produce48 actually had 101 contestants like the other Produces, but since it was a joint venture with japanese super group AKB48 and its sister groups, they named Produce48 Sakura, Nako and Hitomi are from AKB48 and sister groups. Woonyoung and Yujin are from Starship, Eunbi and Chaewon are from Woolim, Chaeyeon is from WM Ent (ex-jyp trainee), Jo Yuri is from Stone Ent, Hyewon is from 8D Creative, Minju is from Urban Works and Yena is from Yuehua (some girls from Yuehua that also participated in Produce48 with Yena just had a GLORIOUS debut with a group named Everglow, do check them out!)
For french people like me, the part « This is my La vie en rose » doesn’t mean nothing ! If I had to translate it, it would be « This is my “the life in pink” » so it’s strange a lot. They should say « This is my Vie en Rose » instead of this strange sentence.
Thank you, I was waiting for you to tell me how I feel about them, glad we agree! xD Just a note love, doesn't La vie en rose mean something more along the lines of: Life in bloom? The Rose there, I don't think is pink, but actually Rose the flower? I could be wrong... but I don't think I am? anyone french here can help? It makes a lot more sense with the lyrics - Red is the color associated with the rose and everything else.
OK CALM DOWN I AM HERE So IZ*One was formed by the survival show Produce 48, the 3rd season of Produce 101 (which formed IOI and Wanna One). It was a collaboration with the japanese label that made AKB48 (and all their sister groups HKT48, NGT 48 and so on). They had 101 trainees on the show, Japanese and Korean. Its worth watching tbh!! So the members were ranked by netizens voting . 1st - Jang Wonyoung 14/ KR Center / maknae 2nd - Miyawaki Sakura 21 /JP/ AKB48 / has a gaming channel on YT 3rd - Jo Yuri 17 / KR/was on idol school 4th - Choi Yena 19 / KR 5th - Ahn Yujin 15/ KR 6th - Yabuki Nako 17/JP / HKT48 7th - Kwon Eunbi 23 / KR / Leader 8th - Kang Hyewon 19 / KR 9th - Honda Hitomi 17/ JP / AKB48 10th - Kim Chaewon 18 / KR 11th - Kim Minju 18 / KR 12th - Lee Chaeyon 19 / KR / was on JYP's Sixteen, her sister is Chaeryoung from Itzy! Members by appearance in the video: 2:56 Wonyoung 3:26 Minju 3:30 Yujin 3:33 Sakura 3:36 Chaeyon 3:38 Hyewon 3:40 Eunbi 3:50 Yuri 4:08 Yena 4:30 Hitomi 4:56 Nako 12:05 Chaewon
Actually because produce was a collaboration with 48G (AKB and their sister groups), Sakura before joining IZ*ONE she is actually one of the most popular members of 48G, so also for Japanese singles wait a completely J-pop style if you have time check some AKB songs so you have and idea.
