ENHYPEN - “FUTURE PERFECT (PASS THE MIC)” MV + “SWEET VENOM” MV + “STILL MONSTER” BAND LIVE CONCERT + SILENT IDOL REACTION

Hi!

Hope y'all are doing well. So here's the next reaction. Nothing like a little MJ-inspired, superhero vampire filled bad boy MV's for you. Goodness, I really like Enhypen. And I really like these songs! 

I'm going to have to line up some of their EP's for an Album Listening Party because they are quickly become a new fav. 

So we did an oldie but a goodie. A brand-spanking new track. A live performance. And a funny variety show clip (which was a Patreon request!)...

SEVENTEEN - “SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN” ALBUM LISTENING PARTY

Hiya!

Hope y’all are having a great day so far. So here’s the our next Album Listening Party: Seventeenth Heaven - nothing like slipping into the diamond life!

Dude, we just love SEVENTEEN. Like a lot. I heard they just won a Daesang at the MAMA’s and their speech is beautiful. I want to watch it but I might try to save it for the Patreon, along with all the performances.

Anyways, back to the album. i love their special performance videos...

COMING SOON TO A THEATER NEAR YOU

Hiya!

Just wanted to give you a mini update on what videos to expect. We did a couple more filming days and so there’s more Youtube/Patreon MV combos in the mix now. I’ll be sprinkling them throughout so that way you get a little bit of everything!

We’re trying to stock up on reactions to get us through the holiday break since since we’ll both be traveling then. But the schedule is looking pretty good now so I think we'll be fine. But honestly, I'm loving that we're bingin...

THE RISE OF BANGTAN - “CHAPTER 01: WE ARE BULLETPROOF” REACTION

Hiya!

Happy Tuesday. Hope you're having a great day so far. We're circling back to Guide Day and kicking off the Rise of Bangtan series here. We filmed this directly after the Super Long Guide for SEVENTEEN so that's where we are timeline wise.

But I'm so excited to do this series with Allison. I binged it awhile back so I remember bits and pieces but a refresher would be good. But it's all new for her. I think it'll be good to have a real breakd...

K-DRAMA TIME: Vincenzo - Episode #02

Yo - happy Sunday!

We're still in the midst of the long Thanksgiving weekend and I just wanted to say that I'm so grateful for all of you.

You guys are amazing and I really love that we get to experience all the k-pop content with you! I hope it brings you lots of laughter and fun times!

Anyways, here's the next episode for Vincenzo. We filmed this immediately after Episode #01 and so we're kind of at that midnight unhinged binging biz. So that's where we were at en...

STRAY KIDS - “5 STAR” ALBUM LISTENING PARTY

Hi, happy Thanksgiving Eve!!

Hope y'all are doing well ... thought I'd get this to you before the holiday weekend sets in (for those of you in the US). Surprisingly, we have a lot of international Patrons!! Hope y'all are doing well wherever you are around the world!

Anyways, here's Album Listening Party #01 - STRAY KIDS!! Personally, I really like the B-Sides and some of the dance-y type of vibe tracks. Allison really liked the gritty stuff. I may have cried a littl...

SUPER LONG SEVENTEEN GUIDE 2023 - INTRO #1 AND HIP HOP TEAM #2 REACTION

Hiya!

So are you ready? Ready for some long guides!! 

OMO. I'm so glad we set aside a day just to do these guides/docuseries type videos. Our brains kind of have to be in a different headspace in order to consume that much knowledge - at least it's something we're both so interested in! 

This is just part 1 of 3 for the Super Long Seventeen Guides. We did the Intro and Hip Hop Unit. 

And you know how much we love those hip hop boys! I love how they spent...

WHAT’S POPPIN’

Happy Sunday!

Hope y’all are having a great weekend so far. Just wanted to let you know what videos are on the horizon! We took a couple days to dedicate to some long form content that we’ve been wanting to watch. We had a full on k-drama day and a guide day and an album listening party day. So yeah - lots of content!!

We still have a Patreon/YouTube combo day where we’ll catch up on all the newest releases and MV’s. So I’ll update this list later when I know which ones ...

K-DRAMA TIME: VINCENZO - EPISODE #01

Hiya!!

OMG guys. I tried uploading this video multiple times over the past two days but had trouble because the video was so long. But after so many attempts, it's finally here!! It's finally officially completely K-DRAMA TIME!!!

And we're starting off with one of my personal favs - Vincenzo. Not only is it one of Netflix's most highly rated k-dramas of 2021, but it's been ranked on multiple "best of" lists on YouTube. We've got action, we've got drama, we've got comedy c...

ONE YEAR LATER

I posted this earlier today on my Instagram and have already shared it with YouTube. So this is a public post. But I basically wanted to jump on here and kind of give it more space to breathe a little. 

I'm not sure if/how long some of y'all have been with our channel but you may have heard us reference Elaine a lot. She is one of my oldest friends and actually the original co-host of K-Pop Crash Course. This channel was never my idea - it was always Elaine's idea. Somehow I just g...

LE SSERAFIM - “PERFECT NIGHT” MV + “I ≠ DOLL” MV + “PERFECT NIGHT” STUDIO CHOOM + SONG ASSOCIATION INTERVIEW WITH ELLE REACTION

Hi friends! Happy Monday!

I hope y'all had a great weekend! So here's the latest in the MV YouTube/Patreon combos. Nothing like a little bit of Le Sserafim. I'm not going to lie but I really like them! 

Perfect Night has been stuck in my head for awhile now and it's just got that classic chill night out hanging with my girls kind of vibe! And I included one of Yunjin's solo tracks here just because I've seen it float around and have been wanting to watch it.  2023-11-13 20:00:06 +0000 UTC View Post

EARLY ACCESS: SEVENTEEN - “GOD OF MUSIC” MV + “HOME;RUN” MV + “CHANGE UP” MV + - HOME;RUN - CHOREOGRAPHY VIDEO + “GOD OF MUSIC” LIVE AT MUSIC BANK REACTION

Hiya!!

Happy Friday, y'all. I'm so excited it's the weekend. And what better way to celebrate than with a full SVT run down!

I'm not just talking about our regular YouTube/Patreon combo deal. I'm talking three bonus reactions plus an unboxing. It's a lot and I love it.

I do have to say, as a disclaimer, this is not a Patreon exclusive and instead it's an Early Access post. And I have to open it up to the YouTubers since Home;Run was blocked on YouTube. Idk why. I ke...

HELP US CHOOSE WHICH ALBUM TO LISTEN TO NEXT!!

Hi!

So we have a day planned where all we're going to do is album listening parties. We really want to knock out a lot of content at once and also experience different albums as a whole. Help us choose which ones to listen to!!

Here's what I have pulled but we're also totally open to more suggestions too:

Thanks for being here! XOXO.

Hiya!

So I definitely just handed the computer on over to Allison and was like "do you want to write the blurb??" So that's her little interjection to our newest reaction to Stray Kids!

THE GAME CATERERS X SEVENTEEN - EPISODE 3B REACTION

I can't believe this is the last one ... OMG I'm so sad it's over!! 

First off - Seungkwan and Jeonghan?! Basketball aces?? LIKE WHAT??

Color me surprised and thoroughly impressed because those two were not the ones I'd guess to be athletic. But that was kind of amazing to discover here. 

Other highlights of this sports activity include: 

• Woozi doing the most minimal amount of basketball-ness
• the sheer fea...

JO + ALLISON DO A HALLOWEEN RUN

Ok folks!

There's still a few more hours left to Halloween here in Los Angeles, so I think I'm making the cut! We filmed this yesterday and I wanted to get it out to you in time. I got this done in lightning speed!!

But we just had to do a Halloween run - full of dance practices and special performances. I hope y'all really like it! We definitely did! 

Enjoy!! And Happy Halloween!!

(G)I-DLE - “TOMBOY” MV + “QUEENCARD” MV + “NXDE” MV + “QUEENCARD” LIVE PERFORMANCE

Hiya!

Happy Monday. I hope you all had an amazing weekend full of Halloween parties and such! Allison has been busy doing a theater show these past few weeks (she's in a musical rendition of "The Addams Family") and so it's been awhile since we filmed. But she's supposed to come today and we'll binge a ton of content for you guys! 

But this was the last bit from our last session. And it's also the one that the mic didn't pick up and so the sound quality isn't the best. 2023-10-30 19:00:05 +0000 UTC View Post

THE GAME CATERERS X SEVENTEEN - EPISODE 3A REACTION

Hiya!!

So I don't usually do this but the videos from this filming sesh are being posted out of order. Bah! 

It's just that I didn't want to do two Game Caterers x SVT episodes back-to-back. But technically this one was filmed before the BTS MMA 2019 performance. That's why we mentioned the confetti in that reaction ... 

Just imagine that this video came first. We celebrated one of our Patrons because it's fun. Homemade confetti for you! 

Plus, it's SEVE...

TXT - “BACK FOR MORE” MV + “CHASING THAT FEELING” MV + “CAT & DOG” MV + “DON’T PUT BTS & TXT IN THE SAME ROOM” COMPILATION VIDEO

Hi!

Hope y'all had an amazing weekend. Just wanted to get the next reaction out to you while it's still hot!!

I feel like all the bands are coming in strong with their comebacks and so we'll be playing catchup a lot. But I'm excited!!

Anyways - we're really liking these two new releases from TXT. The music. The fashion. The style. THe art direction. The cinematography. Everything about it - so good!

And well, we decided to go back in time for a little "Cat and Dog" bec...

EARLY ACCESS: BTS MMA 2019 LIVE PERFORMANCE REACTION

Hello! 

So here it is ... after MONTHS of digging into their music and diligently going through the BTS discography, we're finally doing it. We're finally reacting to the 2019 MMA Live Performance! 

It took some careful planning, because it wasn't just the main five songs that we had to watch. I wanted to also get through all the mini-songs too. But Allison has done her homework. We watched everything except Danger and Fake Love (the latter we're saving...

COME WHAT MAY

Hi!

Hope y’all are having a great day so far. Just wanted to give you a heads up on what videos are coming next!

You guys ... we're almost done with GC x SVT and I'm SAD ABOUT IT!

Here's the first part of the Music Quiz with the guys. We've already recorded part 2, that will come soon. And then after that is only one more episode (insert cry face emoji here). 

Anyways, my thoughts on this one - 

• Team names - to die for 
• Seungkwan - whole nother level of hilarious
• anytime Hoshi and Dino were dancing - love the enthusiasm 
• Joshua and t...

Hiya!

Happy Sunday! Just wanted to get you a little Taekook in your mailbox!

We're diving a little bit more deep on the BTS' solos with JK's newest collab with Jack Harlow. And we're going a little jazzy jazz time with V and his LIVE BAND for NPR Tiny Desk Korea. 

I just have to say that I love love love live sets with live bands with live instruments and all the ad libs and fun tidbits in between. Omg so good. 

Anyways, hope you enjoy this reaction video. We...

V OF BTS - “LAYOVER” ALBUM LISTENING PARTY

Hi!

So I tried really hard to get this to you guys yesterday after the update post ... but I spent all day waiting for Patreon to process the WRONG video and it took like all day because i'm a dummy some times but oh well. 

Here you go, instead. Friday post! Album listening party of the super endearing, wonderful, soulful Kim Taehyung! 

There's so much to love about "Layover" - I don't even know where to start.

It just feels so him. 

WHAT’S CRACKIN’

Hello!

And welcome to all the new Stays! We’re so happy you’re here. There’s lots of content on our Patreon so hopefully you have time to poke around and check out some of our other videos.

We filmed some earlier this week and we plan on shooting more tomorrow. So we have lots of content coming for you on the horizon.

Hiya!

Sorry - I meant to get this video out to you earlier today but I was behind on editing and we spent today recording some reactions!

So good stuff on the horizon. I'll send you a "what to expect" update soon. But in the meantime, here's the next installment of Game Caterers x SEVENTEEN. I would write a little blurb about it but my brain is fried and I have both this episode and today's episode mixed jumbled up in my head.

Either way - the boys are hilarious. I am ...

SEVENTEEN - “FEAR” MV + “NICE” MV + “READY TO LOVE” LIVE PERFORMANCE + "2 MINUS 1" LIVE PERFORMANCE REACTION

Hello.

Before I got into my little blurb about life and this reaction video ...

YOU DID NOT WARN US ABOUT FEAR.

FAERY - YOU DID NOT WARN US ABOUT WHAT WE WERE WALKING INTO WITH FEAR.

OMO.

That was too much.

Anyways - yeah, super chill. This MV was like cool and all. They're like singing and dancing in sync and all that. Etc etc.

No, we were stressing the WHOLE TIME. Anyways, I'll let the video do it's thing and you can watch it and see how that went.<...

STRAY KIDS - “GOD'S MENU” MV + “S-CLASS” MV + “THUNDEROUS” MV + “CASE 143” MV REACTION

Hiya!

So ... NEW GROUP!! That's exciting. 

I know very little about Stray Kids but I've heard a LOT about them. And it's always been hard to save the music for the reactions but I'm so glad we do it. Because getting these moments caught on camera - it's just great. 

We went with four really big bangers. I've only seen God's Menu out of these so it was so much fun diving into their world. For both of us! It's just something so new and fresh...

WHAT’S UP, CHICKEN BUTT

Hi!

Hope y’all are having a great Sunday so far! Allison and I had a chance to film a bit on Friday, and even though the poll wasn’t quite done yet we decided to do some Stray Kids. It felt like a safe bet since they were in the lead anyways. We’ll probably do G(I)-Dle next time since they seem pretty popular too.

I started editing the Korea vlogs - the ones from last September. It’s taken me an entire year to sit down and do this but wow, I have a lot of footage. So just ...
