XG Documentary Series ‘XTRA XTRA’ EP X1 

EXACTLY! that ".. like why not" is way beyond most of humans. Really extraordinary.

@@1viewer1 being a pro athlete and champion by 12 and a leader of an international girlgroup by 19 is a flex that not many can have lol

She said that with a straight face too. At 12 I was playing in dirt and my toughest challenge was being inside before the streetlights came on 😂

How can they achieve so much in such a young age while im here laying on my bed, binge watching XG contents 😭 and not knowing what to do with life rather than support xg lol but seriously, HOW?!

@@sanabakkoush could never be me😭

I think she used to struggle with her dance bc she meant to be a vocalist but look at now she is part of main dancer like the other 6

hikaru too!

Juria from rank next to rank 000000

FR she is one of the most talented

she was the highest tier im pretty sure

hiakru the yellow shirt right 19.58 and black 21:18

@@bpotato3310 23:19 also

@@eristv4494 yes

apparently hikaru will join XG when kep1er disbands.

@@chvehyuns No, that was denied by Simon in an article/interview, however, the girls have said that they would be very excited to do activities with Hikaru When the day of Kep1er arrives, probably Hikaru by his own decision would not enter XG, but rather would focus on something like being a soloist or debuting in another group.

its the same level as WIN of yg when it comes to rawness.

​@@glassjoker629 ever since yg wasted all that mixnine trainees time and effort, I never respected or took yg seriously

@@SanteezArmy from what i read he wanted to debut the winners but he wanted it to last for 3yrs unlike produce 101 franchise groups who only take a year and disbands after a year. But the companies of the talents doesn't want it to take 3yrs. They had disagreements with this so yg decided not to continue.

@@aseeyuuuh I always assumed they were all under yg? that's why I was appalled when I first heard about it

@@SanteezArmy he only had 3 trainees from his agency to participate on the show

It's more than a college degree, plus they were sooo young to be doing something as intense and stressful as this. They did it away from their family and in a whole different country too. They had singing, dancing, rapping, even language lessons. You don't even do all that in college. They're amazinggg 😭

@@Angel-jh6zp 아이구..Comparing it to college is not belittling their experiences. There are college students who live in dormitories too which is equivalent of being away from their family. This is even more evident with foreign students, who could also be exchange students from another country. Singing, dancing, rapping lessons can be done as minor course in Art colleges focusing with degrees in Performing Arts. In college, everyone is up till the next morning. E.g. architectural students. It's a realistic comparison.

@@Angel-jh6zp college is intense and stressful...

All started in Japan then Korea. All the way through….

​@@ammmm_4803 IMHO I think the trainees are more stressed, students are stressed during the study period ending with getting a diploma, which they can use to find work. trainees are under pressure during the training period {delete their social media accounts, maybe they also have to diet for training evaluation} and will not necessarily debut, in this episode 21 participants who debuted only 7 people, 14 participants left without certificates.

They weren't lying. That's for sure.

'baby if i give my all will it pay off, working overtime no days off. "🥲

"Don't get it twisted, this ain't child play Just know that XG's going all the way" -- Shooting Star 🥺

WELL SAID wow, just wow!~

Omg I was so shocked to see Simon. He and Daniel were my biases in DMTN. I love that he has helped built my now favourite girl group.

I second you, Micky. I was personally surprised too

They are very talented but what is wrong with these companies getting underage girls to do sexy dances to evaluate their skills? It’s so inappropriate. They need to stop.

OMG it finally hit me why he looked so familiar!! I remember DMTN! its amazing that hes doing this now!!

Oh my goddddd i fucking knew he looked familiar, he was my bias in dalmatian, im so proud of what he has accomplished 😭😭😭😭

表に出なかった人たちが無意味だったわけではない。これは又吉直樹が「火花」に書いたことだ。 「代表」は一つの共同体を背負っている。

The original plan was to have one boy in the group but this changed midway through the process

​​@@prodoorbeller3803 really? im glad it was changed. if you're gonna make a co-ed group, make it fully co-ed. not just one boy dropped in a bunch of females. that's gonna require lots of compromises not favorable for both parties

なんて素敵な文章。。。

どうも勘違いしてるようだが、オーディション組はどっちかと言えば雑草組だ。XGに才能が無いってわけじゃないが、例えば中元すず香は8歳でスカウトされ10歳でプロ契約した。姉のついでにそこで歌った結果だ。そういうモンスターエリートが居るのがこの世界。XGの(特に歌)は中元すず香が拓いた道を進んでいる。なぜなら日本語発声の美しさを10年前に世界に示したパイオニアが中元すず香だから。日本語発声の音色は新しい。XGのプロデューサーがそう意図してるかは知らん。

お気づきでないかもと思うので書いておこう。普通、モンスターが現れたらオーディションなんか即終了。それ以上はただの無駄だから。イベントとして予定が組んである場合はコンテンツ契約上やめられないってだけで、まぁその場合はオーディション自体が茶番になるわけだ。勝ち抜き組には上が居るってことさ。

fo sho

Yey!!! Yessss❤❤❤ I love XG

Omg you’re literally everywhere

🫡🍻🇯🇵

ALPHAS ride or die

Exactly

自分が思っていた事全部言ってくれたので読んでてスッキリしました！

Already they're better than most girls groups 😭🔥

네 맞아요 ㅠㅠ 그리고 저 과정이 단순히 몇달간 찍어서 보여주는게 아니라 몇년동안 같이 고생한 분들의 이야기라서 더 와닿네요…. ㅠㅠ

This is so sweet. That's why XG is THE GROUP period. We all know that they kill it once they are the stage performing - but this is on another level. The amount of hardships, heartbreak, trials and tribulations that they went through at a very young age. XG is built tough - SIMON really put them to the grinder on this one. It's a testament on how diamonds are made, through sheer pressure. 7 Main Dancers, Elite Rapline, Magnificent Vox Line - all fantastic performers. And these girls have shown they will shine, and will continue shining on the years to come. From a non-KPOP listener, seeing all these made me respect these girls soooo much and SIMON too of course. This is just the tip of the iceberg on what these documentary is all about yet for a grown man, i have already teared up with the introduction and this. These line from TIPPY TOES hits different now - so much different. "We a pack, every part of HER is part of ME"

These ladies are a dream for any choreographer because they move so well together and individually. This group doesn't need thousands of backup dancers like most K-Pop groups do.

Same formula and training that they have in Japan, is training artist/musician at a very young age.

I really hope so! They deserve it so much 💙

After SNSD and Red Velvet, I'm definitely supporting XG this time. They're worth it definitely.

the competition in this generation is so tough.. esp with aespa lesserafim newjeans and soon babymonsters who are at advantage because of their well known companies. XG is my fav gg rn but, imo nobody will beat BLACKPINK as the biggest gg anytime soon.

Amen

I'm a Blink but I'd love to see XG rise to the top. XG is the most talented girl group that I've ever seen.

가수가 뭐라고 저리 가혹하게 하나

Juriaちゃん、きっと1番泣いたんだろうなって想像すると胸が締め付けられます🥲 でも周りのメンバーに支えられてここまで上がってきたと思うと、Juriaちゃんの歌声も今まで以上に素晴らしく聴こえますよね。

@@arare1365 さん ほんとそれですよ😢 XTRA×2 # 0でもJuriaの泣き顔に胸締め付けられました…。。他のメンバーもですが、みんなよく乗り越えてくれたっ！！と心から感謝しながら、MV見てきます！！(￣^￣)ゞ

@@user-ms9cu6vw4t さん はいっ(*`･ω･)ゞ 一緒に心してXGちゃん達の人生をかけて夢に向けて挑戦する姿を見届けましょう🥲

@@arare1365 さん はいᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ今後もバスタオル必須ですよ！！

That's exactly my thoughts

I hop that caz That's what they deserve

@@m-000mmh6 They totally do!! And their potential is off the chart!! 😍👍

Is it going to be weekly? The last ep was released 2 weeks ago 😩

@@Angel-jh6zp that was just an intro to it i think

​@@Angel-jh6zpi got excited so i started to assume things sorry 😭 but i'm hoping that the episodes will be uploaded weekly

​@@emm3814righttt maybe the episodes will be weekly now🤞🏻

@@magsinomanel oh noo, no need to apologize! 🤍 I'd also like it to be a weekly thing. Let's hope for the best 🤞

… and she took one of the main vocals position

Simon still follows them on social media. Who knows they might try out for their next project 🤞

Juria is my bias wrecker. She's got a perfect voice and now the perfect rapping cadence and float.

Oow knetz really hates them ?? Bro when i knew they were all japanese i was kinda worried for them but they got US the rest of the world !!

@@maricleredpav4068 its true, there's a few korean YT channels that dedicate themselves to just look for the flaws on kpop groups but with XG just the fact that they're Japanese and based in Korea , some of the knetz didnt welcome them into the kpop industry with good eyes, to this day they see them inferior artists just because they come from japan, one of the youtube channels called FocuSON its a good example, they have posted videos of XG and the comments letf by knetz are just to xenophobic amd the amount of hate left on a lot of commets are very harsh for the girls and thats in most videos they have of XG, I read one the other day where they call XG parasites,rats even some wishing they dissolve and even wishing death. It really is an eye opener to see how the knetz and k fandoms are so toxic about this group. The Xypher tape 2 is dedicated to the haters and seeing XG now quietly rising to the top its very overwhelming. They are changing the game in kpop by being the first all japanese girl group singing in english to the world. Thats what makes them that power group for me.

there is a fancam of one of the members, jurin's i think, uploaded by mnet, where the comments, i scrolled through in utter disbelief, were filled of comments around 96% from knetz hating on them. it also had to do with their CEO's statement that offended the Koreans. though those comments were just really out of bounds.

@@maricleredpav4068 not all Knetz but a Huge group of Knetz. There are knetz who took interest and actually love XG. That's why there are Korean ALPHAZ supporting them in Korea. but the most saddest part is what happened during their inki broadcasting stage on the 29th-Jan. Here's a tweet about it (you can g00gle the tweet too to confirm it): _"Ohmygod some (Korean and non-Korean) Alphaz who went to broadcast today didn't get the slots for XG 😭 They said 99% of the audience for XG are not even fans 😭😭😭"_ _"can confirm since i was there. a lot of people who won also did not attend & a lot of koreans who are not fans purposely apply to be silent during the performance. they immediately sell the pcs after and hide their slogans. the fanchants are basically mute bc of this"_

@@ammmm_4803 simon mantioneded this before its not the first time they've done this, they did it also when XG did their TV debut with mascara a lot of non XG fans sabotaged the performance by buying tickets and not letting the XG fans attend to cheer for the girls. We're grateful for the Korean Alphaz that support XG and hope K-Alphaz continue to support XG and the XGALX team since you are closer than us who live abroad, when XG comes to America we will make them feel like they have reached the stars and show them that no matter how hard the abstacles in their way have been, we as Fans will stan by them and love them & support them.

Oh right! I just noticed ❤️
