"Hit The Stage" Ep 3 Full Reaction

i love how you talked about the tea hahaha

Watching this for the first time with you. I really think Ten deserved more votes than what he got. I really enjoyed the performance but it is what it is. T-T

Storm

Out of the performances I do think Ten's was the best however I do disagree with your opinion on U-Kwon this episode, I liked the overall stage! I guess you are right that he is the one competing but it was also a couple dance and I thought it was well done, this is just my opinion as a non-dancer though ;~;

Cat R

Please react New Heroes - TEN

Bena SB

Haha yes I’m open! And definitely, probably best to wait!

seth james

Svenja Ebert

Svenja Ebert

seth james

Okay but you do not understand how much I cannot WAIT for episode 5 and 6, the theme and all the performances were some of my absoukte favorites honestly, I loved every single ong and some were just AMAZING I gahhhhh ,,,, can't wait to see your opinionssss

Alicja Bielinska

Ahhh. Thank you for this! We’re learning something new everyday! And I see what you mean. It did have a cheerleader vibe

Re: Cheongha/Chungha--There are different ways to Romanize Korean. 어 can be Romanized as eo or u, as in tub. When it's paired with the y sound (여), sometimes it's spelled ou, like Doyoung from NCT. Romanization is terrible for figuring out how to pronounce Korean words. For example, there's a rule that syllables begin with a consonant. They have a consonant that is always silent when put at the beginning of a syllable; we don't. So sometimes Romanized Korean words will add a consonant to follow the rule, even though that consonant doesn't exist in the actual word. In NCT's Jungwoo's name, there isn't a "w" sound. It's literally Jung-oo. I think I would have liked Cheongha's performance better if her costume had been more different than the other dancers. Sometimes, it felt like a college dance team routine to me, but I think that was solely because of the similarity and look of their costumes.

Yeah after hearing about Hyunseung and what he’s gone through, he doesn’t seem ready to be back yet at the time. Even his interviews, it felt off to me. I of course could be wrong. I hope he’s doing well now!

seth james

Totally love Feeldog. So underrated. Can't wait for next episode because I think it's much better 😫

Palani Aflague

Now I remember why I didn't watch the full episodes when this was airing - I didn't like the rankings lol. I agree with you entirely about this episode, particularly Hyunseung's performance. I was actually so damn excited for him to show up on this show - he'd just left Beast, one of my favourite groups, there was that drama with Cube, and in general Hyunseung is a very colourful character (he was damn close to being a part of Big Bang btw, that's an alternate timeline that I love to bring up every now and then lol). I was expecting quite a lot from him based on this theme, especially because he's also part of a duo (Troublemaker) with Hyuna of 4Minute/Wonder Girls/solo artist fame which had some pretty good choreo + sensual "love"-based stuff. But his actual performance here disappointed me a lot. All the same, the performances from the latter half of this theme did stand out to me more, so I'm excited for that! Also lol I can't cry on cue either - it's so difficult to do especially if people are looking at you (like I assume on set with cameras) all expectant lol. This actually reminded me of a fun piece of trivia - Wanna One / current soloist Park Jihoon was actually a child actor, and one time he appeared on a contest with Big Bang to figure out who could cry on cue the easiest when he was literally a kid. The clip of him and G-Dragon trying to cry on cue went viral during Produce lol. Very unrelated to anything but this just reminded me of that story haha

Layla123

100% agree!

seth james

I think I’m doing Kingdom > Dance War > Dancing High. Unless there’s another survival show that pops up lol

seth james

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought this episode lacked some stuff haha

seth james

Yeah it’s a dancing show and people have come here wanting to show off their dancing but they’re showing off their acting instead 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

seth james

Can’t wait for the next batch!

seth james

I couldn’t agree more with your opinion. Ten is on the top for this episode. Now that I think about it, the unexpected results might be because it is not given by professional judges like most of competition/audition shows. Imagine general audience with no knowledge about dance techniques. It’s so easy to get hooked with other aspects like the acting, the set or even the outfits. The only thing that hyunseung and stephanie did well than other, I think, is that they actually “look good together”. Ukwon and Yooa look like they keep their idol image and stop themselves from doing more. Ten looks adorb and cute but there’s no ‘chemistry‘ with his partner. Thankfully there’s more performance on the line, look forward to it!

Yasmin

It bothered me with Hyunseung’s performance beating Ten because it had “shock value” when stephanie was dancing sensually but she outshined Hyunseung in their performance so I don’t think that dance deserves to pass Ten’s just because he and his partner danced together flawlessly and didn’t have many “tricks” or really awe-inspiring moments.

Mari

I was thinking exactly the same - I felt like these performances lacked in the dance aspect. Like there are some good dance portions and of course all of them are great dancers but the never managed to grab my attention enough to keep me entertained throughout the whole thing. If you want to see more of good dance performances you could check out 'Dancing High' after that. I don't know if you'd be interested because there are not many idols and when they are they're judges. BUT one of the contestants is Jisung from Nct so maybe you would give it a chance. From my perspective Dancing High is overall a better show then Hit the Stage

Ida Bubble

Same as everyone I guess I was somewhat dissapointed in this episode. My ranking, focusing on the competitors: Ten > U-Kwon > Chungha > Hyunseung. I agreed with your comments, but for me Chungha's performance getting boring is worse than U-Kwon's issues, since he did do at least some dancing.. If I look at over all stages, than Hyunseung&Stephanie beat Chungha, but the top 2 stay the same.

PositiveThinking

My favorites were from next part 😅 With my nr 1 favorite performance of the show being one of them 😉👌 But I did like Ten's. Agree with your comments about the performances. U-Kwon was one of my top biases back then (still is) but still felt he didn't "get the show the right way" as I also wanted more dancing from him..

Camilla Helen Wickstrøm

Yes I did! I thought I mentioned it I guess not lol

seth james

ngl my expectations for this round was high bc like,, ofc all of them are gonna step it up right? but that didn't quite happen lol. Ten was the best and i expected more choreo wise from the rest, they're great dancers but alot was lacking, the clothes the song too much acting or starting at 10 then having nowhere else to go and being overshadowed by their partners, if i didn't watch the show I would've thought the girls are the competitors not them :/ yooa and stephanie absolutely over shined the boys. (btw yooa is such a great dancer so is her brother so maybe check her out in the future) but for the next ep the rest are gonna KILL IT !! esp momo I'm in love with her perfeomanc!, and mina is a ballerina so you might like her👀 * a reminder to read the story behind momo's stage 😬 bc it's really interesting to me how she chose to perform "is this love"

o .

the better performances are def in the second half (the winning performance is one of my favorite on this show, ever), but on a pure dance level ten is still up there for me LMAO present bias aside he really is just a ball of potential and all of his moves are so satisfyingly explosive.

hayun lee

Did you notice that the girl which danced with Ukwon is the girl which featured in ONF’s We Must Love performance on RTK?

Sarah Zimmerli

Haha nice! Thanks again! 😁

seth james

Yeah and there’s no connection cause he hid himself with that outfit

seth james

True! I agree!

seth james

I wonder why she wasn’t an official participant. Can’t be the scheduling cause she was able to do this episode.

seth james

Ohh yes mood wise can change it up too I guess! They gotta build it for suspense! 😂

seth james

Oh I know those kind of nights! I’m like that sometimes and have to be up for a couple of hours before being able to sleep again! Haha. Can’t wait for Momo cause that means she improved from last episode! I agree with everything else you said! I think cause facial expression is quite important too so Hyunseung hiding that didn’t help.

seth james

Haha! Interesting. And we can’t say the line up is rigged cause they’re literally crying for it 😂

seth james

YO. Brilliant!

seth james

I'm so, so happy you liked all the stuff I sent you! I'm actually having a few snacks that are the same right now! ❤️

Rose de Vooght-Dawson

I remember when I watched this episode for the first time, I was really underwhelmed by Hyunseung's performance and was unsure how he beat Ten. I think he was one of the weakest performances in this theme. Maybe it's because of the way it was filmed because he blended into the background a lot (physically and dance-wise). His outfit didn't help at all. I think you will like the performances in the next episode better

Grace Lee

I had similar feeling for Chungha's choreography. Even just with whaacking there is more to show with grooving and posing, but they lead too strongly at first with the whaacks. Whaacking has a lot of surprising power because it is very strong and fast movement, but the whaacks can become very repetitive to the viewer, and need to be more broken up or reserved for something like a dance break.

camille

I really wanted YooA on this show as a competitor, she’s so underrated as a dancer, personally I’d say she’s without a doubt one of the best in the industry.

Por

My rank Ten (I swear in not being biased🤷‍♀️) Hyunseung then Cheongha. But I didnt mind hyunseung getting 1st weirdly. Maybe because I could be in a mood for both tens cutesy performance the same as hyunseung sexy focused performance. I will say hyunseung and Stephanie did way less dancing and focused more on being SEXY. but I enjoyed it just the same. I loved just the chill touchy vibe they gave. It reminded me of chore u would watch from choreographers (tracia Miranda, Nicole Kirkland, Aaliyah Janell) I honesty would have chosen both ten or seung as 1st if u made me rewatch their performances in a different mood/vibe. But I totally get y u thought it was unfair. And yeah u gonna have to get used waiting the next ep to get some rankings. I’ve learned when it comes to korean entertainment shows they love making viewers wait😂

Sham Sham

I liked Momo, Hoya and Feeldog haha. In this part I guess Ten and U-Kwon.

Isra Alkindi

I think you will maybe find the second part of this episode a little better. I love more the performance who will come (Hoya, Momo and FEELDOG were so good). For this first part, my favorite performance in this part was Ten but again he was first and because public vote he didn't win. The second is Chungha, my only problem with it, it's just I was really lost because there were a lot in her performance (it was a lot with the dancers I think for me). For Hyunseung and U-Kwon like you said they were overshadow by the girls. I think for Hyunseung he wasn't in his best condition honestly. It was his first show after leaving his group BEAST, we don't know how the Public can react because of that, he was really nervous and more in the mood of hiding himself and we can saw it just by the way he was dressed (black hoodie, hat and with the hood on it), it really didn't help. For U-kwon, too much acting again, I wanted more dance from him but it will be better in the next episode. Can't wait for the second part! (And thank you, you posted the video just in the right time when I woke up at 5am and couldn't fall asleep again 🤧)

*Jeff pauses* Me: oh he’s gonna comment on the theme Jeff: this tea is really good

Funny enough I have the same comment this Time that I had for Episode 1. Except for Ten all my favorite Performances are in the next Episode 😅😂

*whoops

Is it odd that I'm really good at crying on cue? Aside from mental preparation there's a certain technique to it like I kind of glare and open my sinuses in a way that almost feels like yawning but I can fake cry in like 15 seconds.
