@@Alinaverse Absolutely he is!!! I hate to admit my eye isn't naturally drawn to him in group settings but getting to see him dance solo had my jaw DROPPING 🤯
Around S-Class their schedule was PACKED. They themselves later said they were real hyped for that release but because of no time to rest, constant flights, jet lags and all, it all kinda fell flat. Han and Lix were, I believe both having some health problems there, Lix with his disc and Han overall not feeling the best 😢
I remember thinking they looked so tired for this relay and some other things, but then I recall there was a fanmeeting that suddenly seemed to pour energy into them, and Hyunjin, I think, later saying something about it reminding him why they love what they do. After that, things seemed to fall back into place with them. I might have my timeline mixed up, I dunno.
@@demiidle9627 Ahh that's so sad 😩 How exhausting and stressful to not even be able to enjoy their hard work. I remember seeing a lot of promo for 5-Star and thinking Han looked like he was really struggling mentally a lot, which hurt my damn heart. And hearing about poor Felix too... But hopefully they get to fully enjoy this comeback now because they deserve it!! 🫶
@@dania5883 OMG that's makes my heart so happy 🥹🥹 I think the right every and focus on your "Why" is extremely helpful in the industry they're in. I sure hope this is what happened!!
@@lifeofmorganpHan was definitely struggling with something during this time and also Chris was too bc it was right when the Chan's Room drama went down. If you go back and watch the content from that time you will constantly see him and Han engaging very little and actually looking very down almost all of the time. There was a SKZ Talker from that time where I don't think Chris said one word in the whole thing.
@@MakeGoodTrouble Ahh omg I didn't even think about that being at the time of the Chan's Room thing also, how sad. I'm so glad they're doing better now at least 💗
Oh my gosh YES I was waiting for the day you reacted to relays!!! These are lightly coordinated for specific parts, but you know our boys prefer improve and chaos for everything lolll Also the boys were extremely worn out and exhausted most of 5-Star era and it kinda continued into Rockstar as well, which was so sad to see... but after their recent long break they're so full of energy and genuinely so happy right now which makes me even more excited for this comeback!!! Just a little over a week y'all!!!
@@gabriellecarroll5085 OMG I'm so glad you enjoyed!! 💙💙 Okay, partial coordination makes sense for these, I honestly couldn't tell between the chaos 🤣 And that's the sense I was getting for 5-STAR for sure. Very sad to see but I am so happy they're excited and energetic for ATE, after the crazy schedules and exhaustion of the last two comebacks they certainly deserve it more than ever!!!! And AHHHH LESS THAN A WEEK LEFT, I am so excited but also mentally not ready 🙈🤣🙈🤣
I found out recently Changbin ALSO has a black belt in taekwondo along with Minho and Felix. So like, yeah, he did a lot of flips and kicks in their early days haha. Also I swear Minho is the only one who looks basically exactly the same! As you said, vampire! Also, also, I am glad you did S-Class just for Changbin covering Hyunjin's dance solo. But I do agree that they were holistically going through the motions. As a Changbin fan I am appreciating the appreciation. :)
They have a lot of other relay dances: Side Effects, Miroh, All In, Circus and The Sound. Have you seen them in their SKZOO costumes doing Thunderous? They also have a live performance dressed as SKZOO.
@@rugr82day OMG I know I saw them all!!! Haha and if I wasn't already at an hour of watching just six of them I would've done more 😂😂 I haven't watched any of the SKZOO ones though, that'd be hilarious
Actually Changbin was a dancer at first haha!! He was very popular as a dancer in his school and even his first fancam was made by his classmate during his school performance
@@lolevnav OMGGG it all makes sense now!! I don't know why that's so wild to me, but I love it 🤣🤣 That classmate spotted talent years ahead of everyone else! 💪😂
For me personally, I felt that Han seemed a bit less energetic in the 5 star era...maybe he was extra worn out, maybe something else entirely...either way, I wanted to give him the biggest hug
All the boys were exhausted during 5-Star era and they seemed happier but still very tired through Rockstar as well... watching content from 5-Star specifically was really hard for me, they were so tired and every video just made me sad... but they're so lively and excited right now and I'm loving it!!!
@@maintaingmama Yeah, perfectly understandable I think, even if it is a little sad to see. I hope they truly get to enjoy this comeback next week though!! 💗
@@hollypop1988 Ahh OMG yes I thought this too!! It was my first SKZ comeback and it hurt so much to see Han being so quiet in interviews/not smiling in performances/ and looking generally disheartened. He was definitely going through something. But in comparison now it looks like he's doing so much better and I'm so glad 💗
@@gabriellecarroll5085 Oh my gosh Gabrielle, me too! It's hard to describe how difficult it was to see them like that and watch some of the promo content. Han specifically for me during 5-Star just broke my heart, I wanted so badly for them all to be happy. But sometimes that's life and I'm so SO excited about their energy and how happy they look for this comeback next week!!! I truly hope they get to enjoy it too the max ⚡💞🥠❤️
I just found your channel (immediately subscribed) and let me tell you, you sound like such a fun and sweet person :)) can't wait to binge watch all of your stray kids content >:D !! my autistic ass is satisfied now that I found more people that react to one of my hyper fixations. Having said that, have a wonderful day and have fun on your stray kids journey ^^
@@th4_sleepingmiod703 Aww OMG thank you so much!!! I'm so happy we found each other! 🫶 Hehe I have lots of content between here and Patreon so enjoy! I look forward to seeing you around 🥰
Seungmin is a weird one. On normal stages he doesn't like to show off much and when it's live he dances to conserve his energy for his singing, he often has hard vocal parts after all. People who only ever watch such content think his dancing is not that good. But he was actually a rare exception of being in a dance cub during high school and posting dance covers with his club members. Once he does not worry about saving energy for singing etc, he goes OFF. He is actually a really good dancer.
@@Akkarri Ahhh I absolutely LOVE that and it makes total sense he would always conserve his energy for singing- it was so cool to get to see him go all-out 😍
I've seen this happen a few times with main singers in kpop, it's the same for jongho from ateez. many fans who haven't seen their earlier content where they did more only dancing performances have no idea he's a greatt dancer who has a whole other persona when he's only got one thing to put his energy into. seungmin is similar, he's quite a good dancer with good presence but it's just not always fully on display
The relay dances are so fun. Sometimes there is so much chaos....Let's be honest. Almost always chaos. And yes. Most groups have dance relays. Some are as chaotic as SKZ.
@@GolyenHighway Haha with SKZ I expect nothing less and I welcome it 😂 And thank you for that! Wasn't sure if it was a Kpop thing or a Stray Kids thing- it's such a fun concept!!
Thunderous is hyunjin's song through and through, the way he PERFORMED that choreo, no one else could have done it, thats why he has so many million views fancams from that era, same as backdoor, just perfection
49:20 during S-Class era some boys were visibly tired, but I feel like the low energy is especially noticible since Han wasn't feeling well :/ imo, usually him and Changbin bring dynamic to Skz on stage and variety shows, so when they're "not in the mood' the level of energy is not as high
Thank you and Stay Becki for sharing these... Very fun and I had not seen the early ones... babyskz was soo cute... and maybe S-Class being the newest was at a busy time period... I wonder if they have done newer ones? Its amazing that they know their choreo so well that they can change it up at the last moment and look SO GOOD doing so.. and Binnie is the Dance King of the relays, that handstand.. whoa.. 🖖🏽
@@Resistance_Is_Futile1of3 Aren't they just so cute!? I love those early relays. I definitely think 5-Star was a stressful comeback for the boys so I can see how their energy might not be the same. And I have not seen any newer ones!! I looked for one for Rockstar on the playlist I was watching from but didn't see any 🤔 AND OMG RIGHT I'm still not over the Binnie handstand fr 😩
I need a dance class taught by Hyunjin and San from Ateez because neither knew how to dance when they went to their companies and they both can now dance effortlessly. If anyone could teach me how to dance (because I have very little coordination), it would be the two of them.
@@saravandebunte8262 Damn that's so cool!! Just goes to show it's not all natural talent, but a lot of hard work (although I would definitely say Hyunjin at least -I don't know much about San- certainly has a natural dance essence about him)
People tend to forget that Changbin started as a dancer. Lately he has been showcasing his dance skill more and more. There is a great edit of Felix doing a walk-through on the relay dances - ru-vid.comk2lbIrT5bI8
I know you mostly watch Stray Kids, but you really really need to watch P1Harmony relay to Rainism. It is sooooo good🎉 Oh, also today was my birthday, which sucked. Your reaction cheered me up. Thank you🌹
@@tatushhimekuro Ahh of I ever have the mental capacity to take on another group I will absolutely do that!!! Thank you for the rec!! Also omg Happy belated bday 🤗🤗 I'm so sorry it was sucky, but I'm grateful you could watch this and get some good vibes going before the day was over!! 🥰💗
