Stray Kids x Actual Kids (Uncut: 28 Minutes)

Comments

You mentioning the dance leader thing just reminded me- this time SKZ did a three part album intro, pt. 1 is talking about the tracks, pt.2 is the dance practice, and pt.3 is recording. You might find parts 2 and 3 interesting because we get to see how Lee Know runs a practice and how SKZ work together in that area, and then the recording really shows Chan an Changbin in their producer roles and the different dynamics with each member. Might be worth keeping in mind if you're looking for future reaction material.

I think maybe he feels easy cause he doesn't need to be defensive in front of kids. They're not gonna judge you or be hard to read or something... as just ordinary grown ones do. I think this also goes for him and HAN's special bond. I find Han quite a transparent person, he's innocent and very emotionally vulnerable and also honest in a way. Lee know really does have that tendency. Being at ease in front of those kinds of people. (among members I.N also) So I guess one of the reasons he really doesn't go well with Seungmin and him being noticeably kinda mean and sharp is that Seungmin is one of the guys who are really poker-faced and has sharp pickups from people facing him at the instants. I think lee know is quite a defensive person from time to time.

This was a really cute - it's always interesting watching them in different scenarios! Its also worth noting that the interview concept is that they're supposed to be 'friends' as in same-age friends who can speak casually without honorifics - which also helps shape the more straighforward nature of the conversations and makes it even more fun to watch!

Yes, when I heard Max say that about finally getting to see a more lighthearted side of Changbin, I thought to myself “we really need to show him more regular, casual content” lol

Thank you for reacting to this! I absolutely adore this video not only because both Lee Know and Changbin are my SKZ biases, but it was just really cute and wholesome. What’s funny to be is that it seems like they picked children with similar personalities to Changbin and Lee Know 😂 You had mentioned you often see a more serious Changbin, which is funny because he’s so loud and chaotic in a bunch of their content, though I think it’s mostly the SKZ-Talkers he’s playful in 🙂

Agree -- cool that the relationship skills extend to the kids :)

Max Beaumont

I plan to for sure

I'm with you, it does seem like it's almost easier for him to connect with kids. I think it's both -- perhaps it's in fact his nature that may make kids gravitate toward him. His playfulness reminds me of a child's playfulness. Mischievous and coy, almost. They may connect to his brand of playfulness more easily.

I absolutely love Changbin and Lee Know with kids, Lee Know especially, I think he connects easier with people younger than himself. He’s also more playful like this with the younger members in SKZ, so I think it’s just in his nature, or maybe they sense something comfortable about him? He didn’t bother trying to cover up his voice like Changbin did, and being as direct as he is, I think kids actually appreciate that. Too often kids get treated like they don’t know anything, but Lee Know basically just has an honest conversation like they’re peers. There’s another show from a while back where SKZ were interacting with toddlers, and Lee Know again fared well among them.

Have you seen that Jin was on Suchwita?

Everyone’s been joking that only Lino would get paired up with a kid just like him😭 Always fascinates me how social they are, even outside of the group. Chan is friends with everyone and their mom, but I doubt Changbin or Felix have ever met a stranger either. Obviously the whole team has very strong relationship skills as you’ve seen. Cool that it extends to kids. Seriously, It’s harder to make a list of groups they don’t have friends in, several of them still are close to and make the time for their elementary/middle school friends, and they’re just fantastic at adapting to new people on the spot. Always impressed. Adopting friends everywhere they go, it’s kinda ridiculous🤝 .. and I literally choked when Lino was trying to gossip with the girl😂

Looking forward to this! Also, if you don't have plans for other skz content yet, I wanted to recommend the intro to their album where it shows Changbin and Chan directing the recording of each member (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_Nt-jnXGfQ). I thought it was pretty interesting how they adapted their feedback differently based on how each member would receive it, something I thought you'd enjoy analyzing!
